baby frills

Sometimes Mom gets so excited about having another baby girl, that she overloads Lydia with frills and ruffles. Todays outfit, (or actually, this afternoons outfit. :) was a little over the top... even her socks had ruffles. Nevertheless, she was adorable as usual, and I almost caught a smile on camera. That feat is proving quite the challenge as she seems to become a little intimidated at the appearance of a DSLR, (and I admit that posing in front of a camera is quite daunting,) and she quite refuses to smile until the split second after I push the power button and it is too late. I shall continue in my attempts, however, and hopefully will manage to capture one or two soon!! :) She turns 5 months old on Sunday, and I believe she is somewhere around 9 1/2 pounds now. Mom is increasingly proud of her double chin and dimples. :) Lydia is growing up a little spoiled, and has learned that she has only to let out a little screech and one or two or ten people will fly to rescue her from boredom. We're rather fond of her. :)

meeting for the first time

Seeing my family meet my littlest brother, James, was priceless. They were all so excited driving down to pick him up, and were upset when we had to make a couple of stops. Arriving at the hospital, we waited in the parking lot for a minuet while we transferred some things from my Grandparents car into the van, and the kids were almost running off without us. When we finally made it into the room, the squeals and “isn’t he cutes’” were so fun.

^ Cute just isn't the right word. :)

 

My grandpa and James. Doesn’t he look tiny? J

 
The kids even let me hold him!! (While complaining that I had gotten to hold him before! J)

 
My parents let Andrew come over for a few minutes today, and it was awesome to get to see big bro meet the little guy. Andrew got to hold him for a while, and James didn’t cry very much!! Babies usually cry when Andrew holds them. J

So, precious or what?!? Finally something new and cute to photograph!!

Love,

Becca

.......surprise.......

I have a huge surprise for ya’ll!!!!

As you know from my last post, my mom was going in tomorrow to get induced. Well, long story short, mom went in Thursday night, because of a lot of different reasons, and they started trying to induce Friday morning, and through a bunch of problems, James Jeremiah was born at 4:20 this afternoon. I was able to witness the birth, and that was awesome!!! He weighed 7.8 pounds, and was 19 ½ inches long. :)

I’ll post more about all that later!!

And I also had triplet goat kidds born yesterday morning about 6:00 AM, and two of them made it, and are doing amazingly well. The mom is having a lot of problems, and I’m not sure if she is gonna make it, but I hope that it will all turn out great. We are bottle-feeding, and the babies are SOOO cute!!

I promise photos and details to follow soon.

Love,

Becca
