Happy Semi-Birthday, Joy

I can't believe it's already been half a year . . .


Six months ago today, our family looked like this.

Now it looks like this - Joy standing tall with a little help from Daddy.

And this - Mommy and Joy getting ready to blow out the candle.


Thanks so much for coming to join our family, Baby. We love you.

Happ Semi-Birthday Joy!
Joy - I love that name!

Philip - I know we've never spent much time together over the years...even though we're cousins...but I have to tell you...

I don't know much about your "official" life - but we're connected - in our ridiculous, blissful love of our children. There is nothing that can compare with being a mom (or dad) and having these little lights that illuminate what truly matters in life...

Thanks for visiting us, Nicole. Your love for your family shines through everything you write on your blog.

What great pictures! Can't wait to meet this little sweetie in person in a couple of weeks!

She is so beautiful! I still keep being happy for you daily. :) So glad she's in your life!

Nicole...

It's too bad you're even farther away now than you were a couple of months ago...we'd have you over for dinner or something.

At least we can follow each other's blogs. :)

She is b-e-a-u-tiful! I have enjoyed watching her grow. The next few months should be a hoot...crawling and then walking...any teeth yet? Looking forward to the pics.

"...any teeth yet?"

Yep. She's got two sprouting in her lower gums.
