Visitors

Aunt Therese & Drew

Sizzle & Choodle

We had some visitors in Charleston recently and Mati had a blast. Stacey & Adam brought their new Wii, and that is pretty much all we did the entire weekend. (We might have to purchase one in the near future. They are so much fun!) We even gave Mati a turn. I think she is hooked, or at least the TV is keeping her interest now.

It Wont Be Like This For Long

Talk about a tear-jerker! Mati is only 11 weeks old and I am already crying about her growing up. This song is so true, though. I cherish every moment God has given me to spend with this miraculous little child.

So Many GREAT Grandparents

Mati is blessed to have so many wonderful people in her life. She is surrounded by family that loves and adores her. Just look at the faces of all her Great Grandparents. What priceless memories these photos are!

Great Grandma (Gigi) & Grandpa Williams

(Mati's cousin Alexis found her way into this photo, too. Don't they look like best friends already?)

Great Grandma & Grandpa Westra

The girls are finally together!

Mati has been waiting so patiently for her new baby cousin to be born. And now, she is finally here! Brooke Elizabeth Alley was born on Tuesday, October 27th weighing in at 6lbs 4oz, 19 1/2 in. (Just a little bit bigger than Mati.) She is a beautiful, healthy little girl with a full head of dark hair and great big eyes.

As you can see, Mati and her cousin Alexis are already great friends...

And they welcomed Brooke to the bunch (dont they look excited to be together?)...

Best friends in the making...

We are so blessed to have such great friends (and family)...
