Helping Daddy

She already knows more about computers than we do.

First Cereal!

We tried rice cereal a couple of weekends ago!

It went surprisingly well. She actually ate some. She mostly wanted to play with the spoon and bowl, but it's a start! It's not in her regular diet, yet, but we're okay with slow and steady.

Sandra's Shower and a Family Gathering

It was a busy weekend that started with the baptism, then dinner at Tokyo Steakhouse. One of Sandra's favorites. Melissa and Jeff joined us. Lots of laughs and inappropriate jokes from our "chef." Elise thought the guy was a little sketchy, too. Next was Sandra's baby shower. This was the spread courtesy of Mom and Angie. Later, the same day, we gathered at Grandma's house for a small reunion. Mom, the victim of a Jody/Trevor sandwich. Trevor's turn between Angie and Mom. Everyone was exhausted and looking forward to relaxing. I really didn't get to take too many pictures, because I was just concentrating on surviving the weekend! It's great being that kind of busy.

Baptized!

Our little princess was baptized on September 5, 2009!

She was asleep when we arrived (this picture was taken sideways.)

Her new Godparents, Keith and Angie, are helping their Brooke celebrate with Elise.
The ceremony was held at Our Lady of Grace.Washed clean!Monsignor Walsh and us. Congratulations Lisey!
