Welcome Calvin to the Family




 
The Birth of Calvin Wells Riggle.  Calvin was born at 7:04 pm on Saturday October 29, 2011. Healthy 7lbs. 4oz boy, 19in. long. He did bruise his nose on the way out as you can see from the dark ring around his nose and mouth. The rest of the family is so excited to welcome him into the world even Porter who has showed his interested with a curious poke to the forehead.

Porter's First Hair Cut July 2011


Porter has the best hair, long and curly but once his hair got so long that it was covering his eyes Stacie says it has to go. I tried to just cut his bangs but he then just looked like a pretty girl so we put him in his chair and gave him his first hair cut. He handled it well, I think he thought he was we were playing with his hair and he was just waiting for lunch.

Our first post 11/23/2011

This is the start of our family blog. We recently moved to Medford Oregon and had the birth of our fourth and final child. We find ourselves in an unusual position, being in a town with no family. After being inspired by another family who has a similar blog, we thought it would be a great way to record the events of our family's life and also provide a web page that family members can stay up-to-date with our family. We thought it would be especially useful to those family members who have had the opportunity to watch our kids grow up before the move.
