3 new babies from heaven were reunited again...for the first time.
Grandma Kearl must be so excited to have her 3 newest grandchildren finally here. She got to see all 3 of them at the same time just last weekend (February 12th-15th). We were in Bear Lake for Rodney's blessing. I am quite sure that Makinlee, Gilbert and Rodney were up in heaven waiting together for their big day! They each have their own story. We are so grateful that they are here and healthy.
Little Makinlee was born unexpectedly 3 weeks early in Nephi when Marci went to her in-laws for Thanksgiving. We are glad that she listened to her instincts and went to the emergency on Thanksgiving night since she had not felt the baby move. After Marci had a c-section, CPR was performed on baby Makinlee so that she could be with us today. She was born November 27, 2009 weighing only 5 lbs.
I had a wonderful pregnancy. My complaints didn't start until I was neared the end. I was induced 4 days before my due date in fear that I was going to have a big baby. Gilbert was born on December 30, 2009. What a surprise when the nurse said that Gilbert was only 6 lbs 8 oz. I thought I could only have big babies. Gil was healthy other than he struggled with jaundice for 2 weeks. Putting him under the bili lights made me cry.
Rodney was the last of these 3 babies to come into this world. He was born just 4 days after Gil on January 3, 2010. This was Gil's due date. Amy, his mother was anxiously waiting for him to get here. She was sooo done being pregnant. Rodney is named after his 2 great grandfathers...and GREAT they were! Great grandfather John Rodney Moore and Great grandfather Alten M. Kearl. I am sure that little Rodney wont have a problem living up to his great name. Litl' Rodney also struggled the first few days of his life. He had to stay in the hospital a few day longer until he was able to keep his blood sugar level up. Despite what Amy may say, I think he is a good sleeper. He was asleep every time I saw him.
We are so grateful that our precious little ones are doing so well! We love them dear.

So cute. I am glad you could all be together. I am sure they will love looking at those photos when they are older!
