Thank Heaven for Grandmas

Grandma Chris came down for more than a week to watch Annie while Cami was in labor and in the hospital. Her sacrifice (not to mention G. Bob's sacrifice) and efforts are greatly appreciated. We cannot thank her enough.
Grandma Nana will be coming down next week.

Excitement and Kisses

Annie will be a great big sister. She already expresses much love for Ethan. Any chance she gets she barrages him with kisses, something she learned from us no doubt. Sometimes this makes us uneasy since Annie will slip in an occasional eye-gouge with those kisses. God-willing, Ethan will survive.

The "Bonkie"

Cami says Ethan looks like me when I sleep...?

Baby # 2

Wisely, Cami bought Annie her very own baby boy, complete with a newborn cap and bottles. We hope that this diversion will get Annie involved in the everyday activities of caring for a newborn. Lets just hope she does'nt treat her authentic brother like her fake one.

The adorable dress was made by Grandma Chris. Way to go Grandma!

Ethan meets Annie

Annie demonstrated wonderful mothering skills in the first few moments with her new brother. She has been very gentle and careful around Ethan. We have the makings of a wonderful relationship here.
