Long time comin

Mom has been here for over a week now, but I am just now getting around to posting anything.  She has been all over her grandchild, thats for sure! It has been great having her as I haven’t seen her since the wedding.  For Easter we spent some time with the cousins, who had a photo studio set up in the house so we decided to have a shoot!  Some of the shots turned out real nice.

15 MarCousins!

Took Tahlia to see some of her cousins from Canada (Not pictured: Emmanuel, who acted all shy around her for some reason)

With Auntie Etetu

Etetu, Tahlia, Mikayla, Liyanna, and Josiah

With Auntie Belly… Josiah is getting so tall I can hardly believe it… legs look like a spider’s 😀

08 MarSix weeks!

She’s a month and a half already.  Don’t ask why I chose to highlight this pseudo-milestone instead of say, 1 month… I have realized that having a baby means you get to certain things when you can get to them… so dang it we are celebrating 6 weeks 😉  Some shots of course:

Look at the chins! got to put you on a diet mama…

And one with Grandma who can’t get enough of her grand-baby:

08 MarTwo Days Old

Just a couple of shots taken by the hospital photographer when Tahlia was brand new, some of you will recognize them from the birth announcements… She has grown so much even in this short time!

01 MarFunny outfit and the Squad

So I was supposed to dress Tahlia up to leave the house in some yellow outfit that Mommy assigned for me.  This is what I put together, complete with yellow headband which people tell me was too low and made her look like some kind of fitness guru or aerobics lady.  Anyway everyone seemed to think these were funny so I will share them here.  Also pictured here (for the first time of many I’m sure) is Tahlia with her cousin LJ(stripes) and nephew Ezekiel (blue), who I have collectively dubbed the Squad…  as in  Don’t mess with the Squid-ad son! we will fall asleep and drool on you!

01 MarTahlia meets Pop Pop

Dad was in town to visit Tahlia for the first time.  It was short but we enjoyed having him. We didn’t have a whole lot of time so there weren’t many pictures… In any event Dad is retiring soon so there will be plenty more opportunity to get more shots!

10 FebThank You Uncle Shaun

We have received a lot of gifts for Tahlia and we appreciate them all.  However my good friend Shaun outdid himself and made this for Tahlia, a 3-D paper scene in a picture frame.  He has tried to downplay it but I was genuinely touched at the gesture… Here is Tahlia enjoying her gift:

I've been framed!
