Day 356: Loving Leah

I took the day off yesterday to meet up with some good friends that I don’t get to see very often. Of course, 8-month-old Leah was the star of the show, as it should be! This little girl is already pulling herself up and walking around holding on to things. I predict her to be a child prodigy in a few years.

Day 295: They grow up too fast

One of my closest friends lives across the country,  but I’m lucky that she travels back home frequently. Even when I see her every couple of months, her baby girl looks so different each time. Here are photo #1 and photo #2 from earlier this year.

Days 57-58: Babies, toddlers, and gifts – oh my!

This weekend was full of celebration! We went to our nephew’s 2nd birthday party in Southeast Kansas on Saturday, and on Sunday I attended my good friend Lauren’s baby shower.

Caleb was very serious about the gift-opening process, and Beth was dying to help.

Day 41: Welcome!

My cousin Shawn and his wife Angela had their baby boy yesterday, Feb. 10. Ironically his twin cousins have the same birthday! I waited until the end of the day to post this, because I wanted to make sure Angela had the first opportunity to post a photo of him. I have to admit, I’ve been dying to show him off. Welcome to the world, Blake!
