Random cute baby pics

After a hard day at the park!
Sisters. Who's cuter? You're right. They're both adorable!
Here they are again. Still cute.
Mugging for the camera.

"I've got lots of teeth!



Orange County Zoo

Here we are...at the park! We took the girls to the Orange County Zoo, which is really just a mini-zoo in a park in Irvine. But Abi had fun. Annabelle slept pretty much the whole time. So she probably won't remember much. :)
Dad had fun showing Abi the animals. She was more interested in following other kids around. I thought she was going to bring one little boy home with her. He was cute and had big blue eyes. I thought, she's already finding boyfriends!
The animals were pretty sleepy. This bear didn't look real because he barely moved. Could have passed for animatronic.
Can you tell Annette had the camera most of the time? Abi and Chris had a lot of father-daughter time while Annette pushed the sleeping Annabelle. All in all, it was a nice Saturday.

More Zoo

Abi's favorite part of the zoo was the goat petting area. I think she would have stayed there all day chasing after the goats if I had let her.
She had absolutely no fear and I think she made some new friends.


She had fun grooming her new pals.

"Come back! I haven't smacked you enough times!"

"Abigail, there are other things to see besides the goats!"

July 4th

Mommy and Annabelle. Annabelle was pretty oblivious to the fireworks.
Daddy, Mommy, grandpa Richard, and babies. Abigail sat in grandpa's lap and pointed at fireworks without saying a word. When Abi's speechless, you know it's a good show!

Grandpa plays with the girls.

Who's cuter?

Abi all decked out in her red, white, and blue. Would have been perfect if she hadn't kept throwing the flag on the ground!

More July 4th Pics

Abi loves her grandpa Richard.
Peekaboo!

Abi and Caitlin share a swim. It only took about 20 mins to convince Abi that the pool would be a fun thing!

But she loved her new (and first) swimsuit!

Annabelle and Cara have a chat. Annabelle gives Cara advice, since she's the older cousin. (By 8 days.)

Annabelle's Blessing

Chris blessed Annabelle on Sunday and we had friends and family over afterwords. It was fun. (Too bad we didn't notice the smudge on the camera lens until the next day!)
Annabelle was a vision in white. We think she may actually have her daddy's blue eyes.

Abigail was on hand to help entertain. And she even got a gift from Uncle Steve and Aunt Cherie. She loved the clothes and had fun playing with the wrappings.



Speaking of Uncle Steve and Aunt Cherie...it was nice sharing the day with them.


Of course, Aunt Karen was there, enjoying her nieces. She may have even noticed that there were adults there as well!

The Greaves visit


Abigail and Annabelle had fun playing with Owen when the Greaves came to visit. Okay, Abigail bullied Owen and Annabelle was oblivious, but the adults had fun!




Annabelle is two months old (yesterday)


Time is flying! Annabelle is already two months old. And what a cutie she is. (I say this totally impartially.)
She is a very happy and friendly baby. She coos and smiles when you talk to her and even giggles in her sleep. Wish I could have the dreams she must be having!


Chris is blessing Annabelle on Sunday and we look forward to sharing this special moment with friends and family.
