No Lake Day
Sorry, but the weather didn’t cooperate for us to have a day at the lake today. I am sure you didn’t need me to tell you that it is rainy and too cold to swim! However, I would encourage you to still get out with someone and find something fun to do: shopping in Weiden, a drive through the German countryside, a good movie, bowling, invite someone over to play a game, lunch out—find something fun to do with someone else! Have a blessed day whatever you choose to do!

BBQ this Saturday!
We will not be having our Friday night dinner and study this week but will resume in one week on July 23rd.
However, we are going to have a BBQ this Saturday night (17th). Come out to the Graf House at 5:30 to enjoy some good food, good friends, good fellowship, and to meet good Finn! We’ll have burgers and hotdogs on the grill and you can bring a side-dish to share with everyone. Drinks will also be provided. We will not have babysitters so please remember to keep an eye on your kids in the yard. We hope to see you Saturday.

Baby Finn!
We are very excited to introduce to you the newest Kleager Boy! Finnton Ray Kleager (Finn for short) was born Friday, July 2nd, at 5:37am in Amberg, Germany! Both Aimee and Finn are doing great. He weighed in at around 9 lbs. 4 oz. (4200 grams) and is 21 inches long--he is a big boy!
BABY FINN PICTURES
Here is a quick synopsis of our past few days:
Tuesday--Visit to our local doctor who recommends that we visit the doctor at the hospital.
Wednesday--9am visit to Amberg hospital and doctor. They schedule us to come in Thursday at 8am to be induced. They also send Aimee home with a castor oil "cocktail" to help speed things along. Low and behold, it sped things along! Wednesday evening around 7:30 we return to the Amberg hospital (45 minute drive from home) and they admit Aimee.
Thursday--8am they begin to induce. Things initially speed up with the assistance of LOTS of walking. However, in the mid-afternoon things slow down and we were a little discouraged. A visit with the doctor at 8pm and he recommends we get some rest and Friday morning they will induce her again. We return to our room, watch a movie, and as Aimee climbs into bed at 11:45pm she lets out a mild yelp and states, "Either my water just broke or I just wet the bed." Turns out it was the former. We return to the deliver room at midnight.
Friday--Aimee progresses quickly and requests and epidural. Unfortunately there was an emergency C-Section going on and she had to wait 2-hours for the epidural!! The epidural did help though and around 5:00am she began pushing and at 5:37 Finn arrived!
Monday morning we all returned home and are now getting some much needed rest. It has been good to have Aimee’s parents here while we get our feet back on the ground again! Thanks for the prayers from so many of you. We can't thank God enough for this special gift. This little guy has already blessed us with many smiles an tears of joy!
We will not be having any activities at the Graf House for a couple of weeks. We’ll let you know shortly when we plan to resume things.
We love you all!
Blessings in Christ,
Brian, Aimee, Jacob, Owen, and Finn
