HAPPY BIRTHDAY KIMMIE!!!

Today my little girl is 6 yrs old

Kimberly Nicole Barnes was born at about 1:30pm

on January 21, 2005

at Jordan Valley Hospital in West Jordan UT

She was 7 lbs 7 oz and 19 inches long

She had a head full of dark brown hair.

I always wanted a girl with dark brown hair.
It was love at first sight.The baby girl Ches dreamed about was finally here.

Ches was able to deliver Kimmie, it was the neatest experience.
