Tonight Jess and I had the privilege of meeting Nathaniel Ivan Barker for the first time. He is the 2-week-old son of our friends, Erik & Megan Barker.

It was amazing to hold such a small bundle of joy again and t was a special treat to hold this new-life, again realizing just how blessed we are to have our own newborn daughter, Ella!

Speaking of Ella – what post about a baby would be complete without a mosaic of our daughter?

The last two days have been quite busy.

Wednesday we had another great BOX “Road Trip” – this time at the home of our new Pastor and family!

Check out the mosaic photos and click on the mosaic to see all the photos in the set – special thanks to Bethany Kinney for taking most of these!08.02.06 - theBOX Road Trip Mosaic

Also – yesterday on my day off, my sister Sherilyn arrived in time for a huge lunch and some “Ella Time”! She was with us for a few hours and then headed the rest of the way to her new place-of-residence, Chicago, Illinois! How cool is that? Sherilyn is now a nanny for a family up there and will be living with them at least through December.

We got some great shots of her with Ella yesterday:

This morning we went to the local Well-Child Clinic to get Ella’s vaccination shots.

Here is how it all went down:



Is she not the toughest baby in the world?!

We were SO proud of her (and of the way we gave her Baby Tylenol before we even went to the clinic – thanks for the tip, Dr. Pitts!)

Our 14-pound baby is now sound asleep in her carseat and I’m off to work! (Yes, that’s right our 3.5-month old is already 14-pounds!)
