Judah at 4 months




So what happens when you tell Piper we need to get a few pictures of Judah before his 4 month old check-up? She takes the camera and snaps away. Not only did she document his healthy appetite, but she did the fat rolls justice too!

Judah was 16 lbs and a little over 25 inches long. Dr. Malone said everything looks great with him and he handled all three shots like a trooper.

Disney World

Zac and Piper at the Magic Kingdom

Piper and Tink

Aren't they just the cutest?

Last day and Piper has had enough!


Patrick and I had been dreaming of the Disney World trip since the last one four years ago. Piper was only 6 months old so the first one was really Zac's trip. This year was for Piper. She met every character, got some face painting, rode a lot of rides and dined with the princesses for lunch one day (thanks to Aunt Dianne). The whole trip was amazing. We, all 9 of us, had so much fun. Yes I said 9. Patrick, Me, Zac, Piper, Judah, Aunt Dianne, my Mom, Maggie and Devyn. Four adults and five kids all in a Toyota Sienna mini van. We were a cross between a travelling band of gypsies and the family in that clown car at the fair where folks just keep getting out. We have so many great memories from this trip and Judah at four months old followed in his sisters foot steps. He was the perfect angel just like she was when she went at 6 months old. He flew well, he strolled well (even on the hottest days) and went for his first swim at the hotel.

Zac at the fair (fall 2008). Let's hope his face doesn't freeze like that.

Judah taking a nap May 09. Sweet Baby!!!

Zac rocking the baby when he was about 2 months old. Every day Zac would come home from school and scoop him up for a feeding or just to rock him. Zac is rocking out the role of big brother.

Patrick in Florence, Italy December 2007. I love this picture because it shows his mature side :)

Piper at Aldridge Gardens May 2009. My how fast she grows!

Zac and Piper at the park fall of 08. They had a blast and they actually look like they like each other in this picture.

Easter


Our first Easter with Judah - we are so very blessed! We started early with church and an Easter egg hunt where Piper loaded up on about 50 eggs (full of candy I might add).
















Piper wore her gorgeous Easter dress that Aunt Dianne spent countless hours on. Handmaking a dress is for most anyone but French Hand Sewing is a true talent. And one that Aunt Dianne did better than you could imagine. Just look for yourself...
