Meeting the other lions...
Papa, Mama and Emma were all very happy to hold our newest little cub.

Keenan meets some of our good friends
Xaver, Lilli, Guido and Sarah came to meet Keenan at the hospital. He was so good with all his new visit visitors! Thanks for visiting!

Keenan and his Grandparents
Keenan is very lucky to have such great grandparents. A very special thank you to Grandma Sandy for all of her help both before and after Keenan's birth. If there was laundry to be done or dinner to cook she was on it in a flash! Not to mention the countless hours of helping entertain Emma while her little brother stole lots of Mama and Papa's attention. Also a big thank you to Grandma Mary Ann and Grandpa Byron who loving watched Emma while we were giving birth, transported her back and forth to swimming and horseback riding; and who gave her lots of love an attention which helped the process of being away from her a whole lot easier. Soon Oma Inge and Opa Urban will join us from Germany. We can't wait for them to meet our little guy. So much love for our little cub already!!
