#16

Hi All,
So Grampa is #16 on the waiting list now. If the numbers go as they have been, it will probably be about late November that he will get his new cornea.

Elder Kikuchi will be doing a mission tour in September. This will be our claim to fame. Can you believe we already have four months done at the mission office? Time sure flies when you're living on the wild side like Grampa and I do.

We love all the pictures on the blog. Sure enjoy all the ones of the little half-pint people - also wedding pictures. I keep checking for American wedding pics. (Ahem - Pat & Heather)

Yes, Troy, I enjoyed your rafting one. Especially the story line.

Sure love you all.

Gramma & Grampa

Baby Cami

Hey Everyone,

Mike starts school again pretty quick too. Life is busy and great! Camilla is growing too fast! She's now 11 lbs.... She's doing well and changing lots!
Love you all,
Addie, Mike&Cami

So we have officially bought our house. We take posession of it on Friday the 21st. We are PUMPED! Jon and I are so excited to be into our own place now and do out own thing. Shout out and thanks to all those who helped us get there. It is a 2009 duplex. 3 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, hardwood floors and ceramic tile. The landscaping and deck and appliances were all included. There is an unfinished basement for us to develop which were a little nervous/excited about. We cannot wait to get into it, funny info, our posession date is acutally Bird Girl's 1st birthday so that night we are having a family supper picnic style before anything is moved in. Memorable! Anyways wanted to let people in on the buy and also post some pics of my kid.

Baby updates!!!

Hey family!!! (especially Aunty Nancy - you wanted more frequent pics)

So the 'Hinko' little folk are all growing and changing, really fast actually. The oldest cousin Jacey is using her little hands to reach for her parents and is loving her food lately, following it with her eyes, opening her mouth and grabbing her bib to lick it clean - totally funny/gross! She also scooted or sorta earthwormed across the beach towel at the kiddie pool last week, very exciting!!! Kingston is saying 'mom, mom, mom' and is really close to walking, they put the baby gate up recently - that kid is a whirlwind! Amelia is working on adding to her chin and thighs, she will be two months old this week. She coos, smiles, copies her dad when he sticks out his tongue and recently started reaching in jittery arm movements for her toy.

Classic Kingston smile, note the tight grasp Grandma Hinko has on the little man!

Jacey just hanging out in the cardboard fort!

Two month bear comparison! Checkout the chin(s)!!!

Hope you enjoy the pics!! ~Love Jenny
