Daddy Comes to Island Retreat

Baby and I figured it was time we let Daddy come to the Island Retreat with us, so he strapped on the baby carrier and off we went. On the way back, we happened to see the guy who always walks his dogs there and he commented on how beautiful our baby was. Add him to the list.

BABY FIRST - She Grabbed Her Toy

Baby grabbed her little bunny while in the vibrating chair for the first time today. She held on to it for so long, I was wondering if she knew how to let go.

First Possible GaGa - and Brutus Pouncing

While Stephanie Rae is busy trying to say GaGa for the first time, one of four cats, Brutus is planning his attack on her toes - luckily through the thick comforter.

Starting the Year off Right

Well the first day of a new year, seemed like the perfect time to take baby to the Island Retreat with me for the first time. I've been dying to take her there for so long - years really given the fact that I've been walking there for years wishing, hoping and praying to have a baby.

So ... I held out pretty good. I cried of course, but not as much as I expected to. Perhaps because the happiness of having a baby now overshadows the wishing, hoping and praying for one for years.
