Our little Miss Kaylee had her very first photo shoot while we (Shara and Kaylee) were in Sacramento visiting Grandma and Grandpa Shepherd. It was my mom's idea and so we got some outfits and off we were. She was quite the sport and although she didn't give us a cheese ball show like we would have liked she did great. It was super hard trying to pick our favorites. Now we just need to get some done as a family!
So, after a long and crazy summer selling alarm systems to the choice people that live in the ghettos of Oakland we return to happy-valley to start living our lives. All things considered it was a good time. Met some nice friends, learned a little about myself and selling stuff to people who don't want anything to do with me, made a little money, but more importantly than all that the 2 of us became 3.
In the heart of the toughest part of Oakland we arrived at the hospital at about 1:30 in the morning. Most of you haven't driven through the middle of a real ghetto in the middle of the night, but if it wasn't dark, I honestly would have thought it was 4:00 in the afternoon with the hundreds of people just sitting, walking, smoking, and being extremely loud everywhere we looked as we tried to drive by as fast as possible without drawing too much attention to ourselves to avoid a car-jacking on the way to the hospital. You think I'm kidding?
After a 14 hour hellish ordeal called delivery our little 7 lbs 13 oz Kaylee Christine came into the world, and changed our lives forever.
(A post script-Shara hates ALL pictures of her right after the baby was born so don't judge her appearance)
