Baby Shower and Welcoming for Allisan Grace

Staci and Dawn, friends of Kimberly, who hosted the shower.

A cute backdrop decoration of baby clothes on a clothesline.

The outfits were gifts from Staci.

A beautiful and delicious cake!

Grandma Marla, Allisan, and Grandma Cindy-

What a blessing to have both grandmas there!

Grandma Cindy with Allisan

Kimberly and Allisan had LOTS of fun at the shower!

What a fun game! We played "pass the gift" for

everytime Staci used the words "right" or "left".

The story she used was of "Mr. and Mrs. Wright"

as they were having their baby.

Andrew and Jeff "crashed the party", but Andrew

had fun playing one of the games. :)

Sleeping Soundly!

Allisan has once again fallen asleep

in her the warmth of her brother's arms.

Praying Hands

Already, Allisan is "folding" her hands to talk

to Jesus. Caught the picture at just the right time!

At the Airport

While we were waiting for Aunt Kristen to come in...

Yea! Aunt Kristen has arrived!
Allisan is meeting Aunt Kristen for the first time,
(with thumb in mouth, of course!)I love you, Aunt Kristen! I'm glad you're here.

Fun with my cousin

Here are some fun pics we took of Allisan and Josh.
Josh is 6 weeks older than Allisan.

"Aren't we adorable!"

I'm Growing Up!

I'm 2 months old! Time is sure flying fast!

I can smile, almost turn over from my side,

suck my thumb, and hold my head up.

Thank you God for helping me to grow!

"Yum, this apple juice is the best!"
On an "unseasonably warm" November day,

Anna is enjoying her apple juice under her umbrella,

wearing her slippers.

Aunt Gela and Allisan

Brotherly love

Andrew loves to show his sister how much

he loves her with showers of kisses. :)

Ah, the comfort of a brother's arms!

Allisan fell sound asleep in Andrew's arms.

Thumb 2

Allisan has gotten very good at finding

and keeping her thumb in her mouth.

Yum, my thumb!

Allisan has found her thumb, and

sometimes prefers it to the pacifier.

That's better!

After the disappointment of getting out of the bath... Allisan was much happier and

calmer after being dressed and warm.

"Put me back!"

After her first bath... Allisan was not too fond of being out of her nice, warm bath.

It's Bath Time!

"I love my bath!" Allisan's first bath, and she loved it!

Didn't even mind that water poured on her head.

Here's another view of the deck

Jeff's been working very hard to

get our deck done. He's making great headway!
