Grace in her cute red outfit from cousin Melissa. She was 7 weeks old on Wednesday - where do the days go?! - and is cute as can be. We think she smiled her first smiles yesterday, and as you can see was at it again today. So adorable! :)
Dear friends Marjorie-Ann Faucher and Ryan Blodgett were in town visiting from Pennsylvania last weekend, which made for a fun occasion to get friends together. All of us in the pic above were in the same pledge class at the U of I and all had baby girls this year! Lots of Pi Phi legacies in about 17 years! (l-r) Karen & Ella, Michelle & Grace, Kate & Lily, Marjorie-Ann & Evalena
Aunt Jody, Uncle Terry, Chris's cousin Emily, her husband Judson, sweet little Henry (born April 13th), and Ruby the lab came to visit us, Tom, and Aunt Evie over lunch on July 16th. It was so great to see family again and meet Henry for the first time!
Aunt Evie was so kind and came to visit us the week of July 13th. Grace loved spending time with her Aunt Evie, and we were so grateful for all her help that week with Grace and also with Emma, who was recuperating from a bout with doggie pneumonia that week.
