TA- DA ! ! !

Andrew finished building our shed, with the help of faithful little Abby.

Abby woke up every morning this past weekend and put on her work clothes and set out to "help her daddy build!"

Uncle Drew has been gettin' some lovin' from his favorite little

bundle of sunshine niece!

He doesn't miss out on a chance to "help" Sara out by holding Wendy! Random Family snapshot...
Abby is so sweet and gentle with baby Wendy! She even helps change diapers!

Lil' Lillian Joy!

March 5th, 2009

I got to snuggle her and hold her for a while today...she's just one big

bundle of cuteness!

I went with the intentions of taking some snapshots of mom and dad and baby,

but once they put her in my arms,

I was good for nothing,

and pictures were a very distant thought : )

Lillian is the baby of six kiddos!

What a rich family!

CONGRATULATIONS JIMMY & HEATHER!

More PICTURES!

BEAUTIFUL GIRLS!

ABBY IS AMAZED AT BABY WENDYS TINY HANDS! SHE WON'T BE THIS LITTLE FOR LONG!

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL MAMA!

I'm really tired so, enjoy the new pics! More tomorrow!

Wendy IS HERE!

SHE'S FINALLY HERE ! ! ! ~"WENDY RAINE"~ Everyone is happy and healthy!
Sara did it it SUPER HERO STYLE during delivery!
She managed her pain very well and worked hard right up until she saw Wendys face!
Chris has the scars to prove his devotion..Sarah scratched up his arm, bit his neck and pulled a few handfuls of hair out...But I think he's ok : )
Everyone is exhausted but SO happy that our girls are safe and sound!

SPECIAL NOTE!!!

Our very dear friend Haether also had her baby this morning at about 9am, just a couple doors down from Sara's room. After months of waiting to be suprised we now know.

IT"S A GIRL!

Lillian Joy

Baby number six for Heather and Jimmy and she is oh so BAUTIFUL and has the most adorable little chubby cheeks!! Pictures SOON!

BABY BABY!

It's Ryland! 18 Weeks and spunky as can be!

I LOVE this little Rocker outfit! I found it HERE!

I really want to try this Lavender facial toner that I found!

Looks like something I "need"! : )

Lavender Eye Pillow, and A little bit of this n that...

~Cute little Lavender Eye Pillow, requested by my mom as a gift for a friend.

Stitch up a little pillow and leave one end open to add

Two parts dry rice, and one part dried lavender.

Stitch up the open end.

Microwave for 20 seconds then place on eyelids for a relaxing treat.

~You can also make a Lavender Tea Bath by Adding two tablespoons of dried lavender

to a little tulle baggie and let t soak with you in a hot bath~

Abby Begged her uncle "huke" to make her a

BIRDHOUSE

that she could paint.

The very next day Luke suprised her with a

cute little wooden birdhouse that he had made.

Abby had so much fun painting it! Then she begged her daddy to take her outside

to find a tree to put it in...and he did!
