New Slide Show

Hello everybody! Just wanted to keep you all updated with plenty of pictures. Uncle Mack and Aunt BB came over to see Elke yesterday. It was a pretty good visit.


Here's another video for ya.

Elke is one month old!

Hello everybody. Elke is doing pretty good. We've had a rough week or so. Elke was sick and didn't want us to sleep through any of it. But she's getting better now, and we're all sleeping pretty good at night.



Thought you might like to see a short video of the tike.


And here is another slide show of new pics.


We hope you are all doing well.

Visit from Grandma Kitty

Grandma Kitty came and stayed with us for a couple days this week. I think we all did a pretty good job of keeping her awake at night.

Also, we added many more pictures to the slide show in the previous post. These are the many faces of Elke.

Some more pics

Elke's really getting the hang of making stinky poo.

Smooth Sailin' So Far

We're all doing pretty good so far. Grandma Jan
came out to visit for a while and helped us out. Here are some pics.

Kittitas County's First Baby of 2008!

It turns out that we had the first baby of 2008 in our county. As a result we are on the first page of the Ellensburg Daily Record! We also won hundreds of dollars in gifts and prizes from the community. Here is a link to the article: First Baby Is a Girl! They got most everything right, but we were disappointed to see that they made a mistake where it counts the most--they screwed up the grandparents' names. Most notably, they neglected to include Grandma Kathy.

Other than that, we just want to thank everyone for their support and love. We wish you all could see little Elke in person, but we're sure you all will in time.

Elke Stanley Sander

Our baby girl, Elke Stanley Sander, was born on January 1, 2008 at 12:29am. She is doing very well as is her mother. She was 8 pounds, 1 ounce and 19 inches long at birth. Here is a slide show of pictures. If you want to download or see one of the pictures larger, just click on the show as it moves.
