NY Norstads

I received pictures of Kyle, Luke and Faith from Jamie and Michele... 
These are pics of their first day of school 2011.

Here they are with their family rock band!

We love and miss you guys!  Hugs to you from Auntie Deb(bie) and the rest of the MN Norstads.

Ultrasound!

Jason and I went to Baby Reid's 20 week ultrasound on Friday the 30th of September.  We were both excited to finally see the baby again.  Everything looked healthy, except they couldn't get a very good picture of the 4 ventricles of the heart because the baby would not move.  They tried tilting me back because that usually does the trick, but apparently this baby is stubborn....I guess he'll have some Norstad traits!  I have to go back in 4 weeks for another ultrasound so they can get the picture.  Right now the baby is head down ready for 20 more weeks to go by apparently so he can get the heck out of dodge.

Even though we KNOW that it is only one baby, Dad seems to think it is twins!  Maybe he doesn't want to have to share with Mom.

Sydney Ann Jahnke is here!

Kelly called and asked me to post that their daughter Sydney Ann is here! She arrived today around 3:30 via c-section. Kelly said she has brown hair and is really cute!

Sydney is named for the city in Australia where the Jahnke's spent some happy years (and they happened to love that name before they moved there).

Ann is Duey's mom Shirley's middle name.

Sydney was 8 pounds 6 ounces, and 20 inches.

We can't wait to meet her! Welcome to the family, Sydney!
