Winter Wonderland

Whew...it's a boy!!

My best friend, Trish, had her little baby boy tonight. His name is Jonathan Douglas. He was 8 lbs. 5 oz. and 20" long. I am so excited to spend Lincoln's next weekend off (that isn't a holiday) in Cumberland...if they'll have me. I can't wait!! I will have more pictures then. this picture above was sent to my cell phone by Trish shortly after she called me after his bath I believe.

7 Months & A Merry Christmas

Life is going to be very hectic starting tomorrow - Christmas services start tomorrow at church including the kids' program tomorrow night, Saturday Ashlyn is having her friends over for her 4th birthday party, Sunday is her party with our family and then it's Christmas - so I wanted to post a Christmas 7 month picture and wish everyone a very Merry Christmas - may you all be as blessed as we have been this past year!!

Welcome Josie Rose

Lincoln's brother, Grant, and his wife, Tiffany, welcomed their new baby girl into the world this morning. Josie Rose was born at 6:56 am. She was 7 lbs. 3 oz. and 19 1/2 inches long. We got to go see her tonight and she is just beautiful. I must say, we all make some pretty babies.

She's CRAWLING!!!

Our baby started crawling tonight...now I just have to remember how to 'baby-proof' our house. :)

Being 6 months brings on shots...

These are pictures from Chloe's 6 month doctor appointment. She is now 20 lbs. 6 oz. and 27" long. I don't really know why this is important, but she is just above the 95th percentile for weight and at right about the 95th percentile for height. She is actually wearing Ashlyn's clothes from when she was a year old. Chloe took her shots really good this time too. She only screamed for about 30 seconds, but then she was crabby for a couple days after that.

ThanksChristmas

Okay, so I don't have any really good pictures from Thanksgiving except for our Christmas card picture and I don't want to ruin that surprise yet....:) I did get a few from my Christmas/Thanksgiving last Sunday though. My dad, step-mom, sister & their foster child, Josh, came over for an early Christmas. It was a nice visit. We had fun.

Yeah, I'm a dork, but I am a proud dork of my first turkey.

My dad, me & my sister, Victoria - she's odd. I have no idea where that comes from.

Me and my dad

This photo is on this blog for one purpose...to get her back. My sister liked using my camera the whole day...she took many of herself. So, I thought I'd post one up. Attractive, huh? :)
