Karis meets Grandma She-She and Great Grandpa...

Today we went to Great Grandpa's and had a visit. Karis met GG and Grandma She-She.






Ella told GG all about Dora and Swiper the fox. She brought her Dora book for GG to read to her.

Matching Outfits!

Our friend Tammy has been hoping we would have a third girl so that they could all wear matching outfits. So, when Karis was born Tammy bought our girls some matching shorts and tops. Here are some pictures of the matching outfits. Ella changed her shorts a few times throughout the day... wearing one outfit a day just isn't her style. Tammy's daughters also have the same outfits.




Summer Weather has arrived...

We have had some hot days this past week. We set the pool up in our backyard and the girls have enjoyed sliding into the water.




Here's Karis in her summer outfit. I love her little sandals. These were a gift for Ella, but since she didn't do much walking in them they aren't worn out.



We also took the girls to White Rock beach. They love going to the beach and having a picnic.

Grandpa Clark meets Karis

Last Thursday, Grandpa Clark came to town to meet his newest granddaughter. 




All 3 girls were happy to see him and kept him busy throughout his visit.





We took Grandpa to the school park and Grandpa and Ella had a few running races to see who was the fastest. I think Ella won the best of 3, but she had trouble waiting for us to say 'on your mark, get set, go' and so she had a few head starts.

Three Sisters


Here's a video of our 3 girls interacting.

Karis' First Week

Karis had a great first week at home. She spent most of her time sleeping. Ella and Juliette are enjoying her very much and often ask to 'hold baby'. They like to say "oh, she's sooo cute" and they also like giving her kisses. Momma and Dadda are falling more in love with Karis everyday too.

Karis received some nice gifts and had lots of visitors to welcome her during her  first week.








Grandma Jo-Ann came to help out for a few days while Spencer finished things up at work. Momma couldn't have done it without help, thank-you Grandma!




Matching jammies... thank-you Aunt Barb!


Baby's first jeans.

While we were at the hospital...


While Momma and Dadda were at the hospital, Ella and Juju were very well cared for. They spent the first couple of days over at Keith and Melissa's. They had a great time playing with Hudsy. Their next couple of days were spent with Sean and Moo. When we came home they had all kinds of stories about things they did. Most importantly, they were well loved and cared for while we were away. Thank you Reeds and Faulkes!
