Yahoo! Kendra Sue Stimpson – Born 12-30-09

We added a sweet little baby girl to our family this past week. 2kodyLisaKendraJustBornKendra Sue Stimpson was born

weighing 7 lbs, 8 ounces. We are so happy to have her and Lisa and baby are both doing well!

The nurse brought Kendra into the room with a cute little purple bow. Purple was my Grandma Stimpson’s favorite color so we like to think that maybe she was there along with our other grandparents looking down on her from Heaven.

We decided to name her Kendra Sue. We just liked the name Kendra and we wanted her middle name to mean something special so that took awhile to decide on one.

We finally decided on Sue! we thought the name Sue would be perfect for a middle name as it is her Grandmother’s (Lisa’s moms name) and also my sister Wendy’s middle name. Sue was also the name of the woman who took in my grandpa when he was little and took care of him so the middle name Sue is very special for many reasons. ;-)

Grandpa Duncan holding baby Kendra. While he was here, he introduced me my new favorite taco place “Chronic Tacos” in Meridian. He brought Lisa and I delicious shrimp tacos from there and now we are hooked! Yum!

Trace in his cool new babushka hat looked down at his baby sister. We are so thankful for our little family and that families can be together forever!
