Let the First Birthday Celebration Begin!

Wednesday, August 9th, 2006

Bailey with mom wearing her “1st Birthday” hat.  I guess the hat was too cute not to purchase…  seeing as we probably won’t get any more use out of it.

Next, all smiles while opening gifts…

Now it’s time for some birthday cake:

Christy and Cooper join in on the action…

Christy & Cooper AND Destiny

The Great-grandparents arrive… Here’s Bailey with Nana Jones:

Ella and another with Aunt Shirley, Ella & Bailey snuggling:

Below, Aunt Gigi with little Taylor and Bailey:

More Birthday cake???

Bailey doesn’t seem to like her party hat: 🙁

So we distract with the cake and she starts to dig in…

Fischer & I get in on the feeding frenzy…

All done with the “smash cake:”

Now, it’s time to blow out the candles on the “real” cake:

Great-Grandfather Papa Jones trades in his Stetson for a REAL hat:

More gifts? There’s too many to list… thanks everyone for coming and thank you for the gifts… Bailey’s enjoying them all!

Mother’s Day!

Thursday, May 18th, 2006

For Mother’s Day went to Roswell, GA to visit with Aunt GiGi (Gail) and Uncle Tom. Amy’s Parents and Grandparents were also in attendance.

Here’s some cute shots of Bailey saying hi to Grandmommy:

and here she is bouncing on the the table in the hands of Great-Grandfather “Papa Jones”:

After a little bit of playtime, we all sat down for lunch made by Aunt Gigi & Uncle Tom:

Of course Bailey had to find something to play with during lunch, so she gnawed on Grandmommy’s pearls:

After lunch it was time to open Mother’s Day gifts (for some reason, I didn’t get anything):

Followed by more play time (of course!):

Lastly, here’s Bailey modeling the latest in cosmetic surgery…

Bailey was the center of attention the entire day. As we were leaving, we wondered what we all used to talk about during family get-togethers prior to Bailey’s arrival.

Easter at Julie & Shaun’s

We wen’t to Amy’s cousin’s house (Julie) for Easter. Here’s Bailey with her first Easter basket:

After dinner, we all went outside to help Ella on her Easter egg hunt:

Here’s a sweet picture of Bailey with Aunt Jane:

And lastly, one with Bailey and her new bunny ears:

Dinner with the McGahagans

Sunday, September 11th, 2005

Patrick & Kristie now have a new addition to their family as well… a beautiful baby girl named Taylor.

Here we are out at dinner, meeting the little one for the first time, and playing musical chairs with the babies:

Patrick & I with the Munchkins:

Stoney River didn’t seem to mind us cluttering their tables and floors with baby gear. Both girls were a big hit with the patrons and the staff.

I was going to let Bailey pick my dinner entree for me, but noticed the size of her belly and decided against it:
