HAPPY ONE WEEK BIRTHDAY TO ELLIE!!
I was wide awake for my party!!

My momma put a cute red ribbon in my hair! Do you like it?

I like to hold my hands together when I sleep

This is me and my family

My momma loves to kiss my forehead (I like it when she does that!)

Ellie Grace - Day 5
We've been videotaping just about everything in Ellie's life - from minutes before she was born to her first bath - to her days under the jaundice lights in the hospital and now on Day 5 - we visited her at home. Of course, I'm taking pictures while Pop (Richie) is videotaping her every breath.

Just look how cute I am in my pink and white outfit

I'm hungry, even though I just had a Ba Ba

Yum, I love these things! And look, I can hold it all by myself!

This is my Pop, my Nana and my daddy having fun at my house while I take a little tiny nap


This is my Momma, she loves me tons even though I just made a real stinky booboo in my diaper!

Introducing our sweet, precious little angel Ellie Grace!

Just 45 minutes old here:

Check out her full head of black hair 2 inches long!

Here I am right after my very first bath!

Sometimes I'm a little drama queen!

Sometimes I'm not!

They already did my footprint!


My Momma and Daddy are real proud of me!


So is my Pop!

Pray for my dad!!


As most of you know, my dad has been blind in his left eye my entire life. He lost sight way back in the 60's, I think - so did a couple of neighbors who also lived on King Street. Now-a-days, you'd sue someone if something like that happened, but back in those days you just dealt with what was given to you. He's had that same disease in his right eye but it's never caused him a problem.

He woke up the morning of 9/11/07 and was having trouble seeing things close up. He can't see clearly enough to sign a check, he can't see what's on the computer. His distance vision isn't the same but it's not as bad. He says everything close up is really blurry.
He immediately went to the eye doctor but is going back tomorrow (Friday 9/13) for more tests and to determine what's going on and what needs to be done.


Obviously I don't want my dad to lose sight in his only good eye. He does have a cataract so it might just be that but we don't know yet.
Please say a little prayer that this can be fixed and he can go about his normal every day life.


Thanks everyone!!

We hung out with Kellie and Brian yesterday. Kellie wanted me to take some "portrait-like" pictures of her (and Ellie) and Brian before Ellie comes to join us. Next weekend hopefully we'll get to do some outside shots at the art museum. We couldn't this weekend because of the art fair they had there and because of the rain that wouldn't let up!!! These are my favorites :
