New Life Part 2

Our mom stayed out in OH with Shawna, Don and Keira last week to help out during her first week home. Mom needed a ride home, so Jamie, Ceili and I used that as an excuse to go out and see them again this past weekend. She is just such a beautiful baby girl - I could just hold her and stare at her for hours on end!! I had the opportunity to take some photos for them - my first photos of a newborn!! It was a lot of fun, and I think we got some really good shots! Here are some of my favorites (it was hard to choose)! We had a great time with them this past weekend - it never gets easier leaving when it comes time. We already miss them dearly and can't wait to see them in a few weeks when they come in town for Jamie's baby shower!! I hope you all enjoy the photos - I may be biased but I think she is one of the most beautiful babies I've ever seen!! I love you so much Baby Keira!!




























This is Keira swaddled in the afghan our Granny made for her and relaxing in the cradle our Papa Bob made for us girls to sleep in as babies, and now our babies get to sleep in it! Ceili has gotten to sleep in it as a newborn, now Keira and next Carter!! I think it's neat that we have this to pass around - thanks Papa Bob!!
Keira with her big sister (Shaelyn) and big brother (Tyler) - they are so proud and so excited to play with her and teach her new things!!


All 4 grandchildren (so far)...all of them already love Keira (Teewa as Ceili says it) and can't get enough of her!
