Happy Day!

15 July 2007

First off we want to congratulate our friends Brian and Gina on the birth of their little boy Gavin! He a cutie and we look forward to meeting him soon! Please also continue to keep our friend Charli in your prayers. She is having a busy summer and continues to do well with her cancer. Visit her site to check out her cute pics and to leave her an encouraging note!

We really have not done too many exciting things this last week. We stayed pretty close to home and just did our normal family things. Saturday night Chad and I went out and Calla went to stay with Grandma Karma for a few hours. Chad and I went out to eat and then went to play disc golf at Cottonmill Park here in town. That is a very challenging course and one that we look forward to doing much better at someday!

Just to answer a few questions that I have received this week. Yes Calla got her ears pierced. Yes she cried...so did I! After 2 minutes she was over it and has not been bothered by them since. No they do not bother her when she sleeps. On the 4th of July someone asked what my boy's name was and I nicely corrected the lady and told her that HER name is Calla. I was upset that just b/c she was in blue that people assume that she is a boy, but I knew that I could help people see that she is indeed a girl by piercing her ears. Her dad and I had decided several months ago that we would pierce her ears at some point and we discussed that now was a good time. She will never remember the pain and will just always be used to them. If you click on the pics you can enlarge it and see the earrings a bit better.
Thanks for checking on us...we hope that you all have a great week!!!

1st - look at those beautiful eyes!
2nd - love the polka-dot top!
3rd - Charli has that same green outfit!
4th - good for you for getting the ears done! Calla is yours, so you can decide what is right for her!!!! I have seen several baby-babies in town with their ears pierced, like 3 weeks old. You aren't doing anything that other parents don't do!!!! I hope you aren't getting too much greif about it.

have a great week!
