New and Old Slideshows

We have added two new slideshows.

Pre-Claire's arrival:
The first slideshow has photos from the month of March which include Easter, a trip to the zoo and much more!!!






The second has photos from Claire's first week at home. Grandma Connie was a big help all week long and is Lilly's new buddy. Lilly loves her new baby sister and has yet to clobber her over the head with anything:)




Click on the pictures to watch the slideshows.
By the way, we have been asked about ordering some of the photos. When you are done with the slideshow, you can click on the "X" on the slideshow control panel. From the Picasa Web Album page that comes up, you can order individual photos.

Enjoy!

Claire's First Slideshow

Here are the pictures of Claire's arrival and our next few days in the hospital. We are happy to be home now and are getting the new routine started. Click on the picture on the left to see the full slide show.

Welcome baby Claire!!!!

Claire Elizabeth
arrived at 9:25am on Friday, April 11.
She weighed 8lb, 13 oz and is 21.5 inches long.
She was born at Mercy Gilbert Medical Center. Dr. Mia performed the surgery and was the first to see Miss Claire.

Claire and Lori came home from the hospital on Tuesday, April 15.

Everyone is doing well. Lilly seems to like her new baby sister. Belle and Sue are also behaving.

We will load more pictures soon.

Snip Snip

Spring in Arizona brought a new haircut for Miss Lilly.
Since her hair is still very fine, the hairdresser opted for a short, stylish, stacked bob for spring. It is reminiscent of past summer haircuts of Lori's... imagine that. Life is too short for boring hair!

New Videos for Your Viewing Pleasure!!!

Pace yourself and don't watch them all at once or you may get a stomach ache.



You can still see all the old videos over in the right side of the page under the "2007 Archive" folder.

Finished: Lilly's new room!

Drum roll, please......
At long last, Lilly's big girl room is complete! This will make room for baby Claire in the nursery.

Rob and Lori spent many hours creating a haven for Lilly. Since the room's completion, Lilly spends lots and lots of time playing in her new room. She is fond of listening to her Kindermusik CDs while dancing on her purple rug. She also likes to play with her babies in the big green tent. Belle and Sue are fond of hiding under the bed.

Most importantly, Lilly feels extra special in her new room. It will be a great getaway for her once baby Claire arrives.
