Wyatt Lane Volker is Here!

We have a new baby in the family! No, not Baby Butler quite yet... Blake's sister, Christi, her husband, Brad, and their son, Braylon, welcomed Wyatt Lane Volker on Sunday, May 26. He was 8 lbs 3 oz and 21 inches long and has strawberry blonde hair... a surprise to everyone! Besides having jaundice, him and Christi are both doing good. We can't wait to meet him soon!

Weekend with the Lutzs

This weekend we had the Lutz clan over for a family get-together. Bryan, Jennifer and Wyatt were vacationing at the coast earlier in the week, so they stopped by for a visit along with the Moores, Amy, Dad and Jody. We went swimming, played washers and had a fish fry (remember all those catfish Blake and his dad caught a few weeks ago?). We all couldn’t wait to get our hands on Wyatt and see those two little redheads… and everyone else, of course. Blake got to test out cooking on his new griddle. A whole pack of bacon at once? Yep, and it was delicious! Wayne was pretty amazed, so he may be asking for one for Father’s Day soon.

I think Wyatt has some pretty excited big cousins!

Baby Butler's Room

I enlisted my mom to help me make a crib skirt and curtains for our lil guy’s bedroom. Once I started looking around to buy baby bedding, I couldn’t find exactly what I pictured, so I asked Mom to dust off her sewing machine and clear a Saturday. She showed up bright and early with her sewing box. Our AC was on the fritz, so we put her to work in the "sweat shop". We were all thankful for the mild temps this weekend! Besides a few minor mistakes, I think we did pretty well. Thanks, Nana!
