trampolines are the best

Snaps from June.  

i love the trampoline and so does my daughter.  

hilarious.  

gramps takes a turn with vera on the side lines while cora jumps.  

Vera's wearing my overalls!  6 months

V was just sitting all nice and then gets attacked by big sister.  

Cora's way too old for the stroller, but she loved riding next to Vera.  

bathing suit time!

Vera wasn't quite sitting up on her own yet, so big sis helps out.  

Cora is constant entertainment for Vera.  

Silly girl.  

Pretty girl.  

Look at V's big smile.  

Trying to get the 3 of us.  

Cora took this picture.  

And she took this one.  

And here's when Vera started sitting on her own.  

Very focused.  

Crazy face.

Cora decided to take picture taking into her own hands.  

lots and lots and lots of dancing in our house.

We thought it was a good idea to put Vera in the doll bed.  

Look, she fits.  

Cora now nurses her baby Lucia.  

cute girls.  

nice drool.  

Vera totally prefers be on her tummy.  Always has.  

Love my girls and love my guy!  

so very blessed

Vera Louise, 2 months

 Sunday February 5, 2012 Vera officially received her name and a beautiful blessing.  Ryan gave the blessing at church and we were fortunate enough to have Ryan's father, my father, my brother Krister, and our brother (in law) Ernie all in town for the occasion to participate as well.  We love this little baby girl and we felt the love of our family and friends for her as well on her special day.   I feel so very blessed to have this little girl a part of my family and blessed to feel loved by so many people.  And a special thanks to Melanie for taking pictures!

mama and baby.  Vera is wearing the dress I wore when I was blessed 27 years ago.  

beautiful baby

here's the cousin trouble makers.  Elsie (Krister and Sheri's), Roman (Mel and Ernie's), and Cora (mine!)

So happy my dad could be with us.  

 

 

Thanks for coming and making Vera's blessing day very special!
