Happy Birthday Sweet Girl!

It's hard to believe it was only a year ago that this sweet little girl came into our lives. In a weird way it seems like I can't remember what life was like before her. We are so incredibly blessed that God entrusted Eloise to Alan's and my care and pray that everyday we realize His gift. We love you baby girl, Happy 1st Birthday!

eloise's big news!


If you can't make out the words on her shirt, there's a little more help below.......


Yep! You guessed it.....I'm 12 1/2 weeks along and doing great. We had a doctor's appointment this morning and eloise demonstrated her first event of sibling rivalry. The doctor was handing the ultrasound picture to Alan (who was holding eloise) and she grabbed it right out of the doctor's hand and crumpled it up.

Baby #2 is due March 4th, which will put exactly 18 months between the two. We're thrilled and grateful for God's blessings!

my little pup

She might really think she's a dog!! Eloise loves to put this toy in her mouth and crawl around the house. Every couple of yards she stops and hangs her tongue way out of her mouth and starts panting and then cracking up. She also immediately echos whenever the neighbor's dog barks. Apparently, we need to get out of the house more often and around some other KIDS!

Will her fame ever end??

Here is a link to New York Magazine that has an article about President Obama's publicity. A friend of Alan's sister noticed the tiny picture of Eloise and the President. We ran right out to Borders and bought a couple of copies of the magazine for her scrapbook. Eloise is scheduled to be at Borders this weekend signing autographs for all that are interested.
