Day 159

159/365

John knew a man growing up who's middle initial was "G." When people asked him what the G stood for, he would say,"Gorgeous!" We hope Gemma has enough spunk to pull that off. Modeling for pictures like this, I think she has an awfully good chance.

Day 158

158/365

Will has a million quilts that my mom has made him, which I am very thankful for. But tonight was the first night I have found Will snuggling under one that I made him. It felt great. Now to make time to craft some more...

Day 157

157/365

Gemma and Auntie Noelle

Noelle is one of those friends that everyone needs. I can't even count how much stuff she has given us for Gemma. Any time she's around, she entertains Gemma and gives me a little break. She's always encouraging and has helped us in a million other ways as well. Thanks Noelle!

Day 156

156/365

A Day Out with Thomas!

I don't know how much longer Will will be interested in trains, so this year we had to make it a point to take a ride on Thomas before it was too late. Here he is pictured with the conductor. His smile could light up a room. I love the wonder of a little boy, but I also know it won't last much longer. (I heard that the Chick Fil A cow wasn't real just the other day. I have also been questioned about how Santa can fit down the chimney.) For now, I am going to enjoy the moment.

Day 155

155/365

Gemma's "official" 7 month photos. See how she's learning to strike a pose?

Day 154

154/365

Every year the Saint Elizabeth Ann Seaton Catholic Church holds a fair just minutes from our house. It's a fantastic place to people-watch and Will loves the kiddie rides. I love the colors!

Day 153

153/365

I love these tender moments between brother and sister. I can't get enough!
