Miriam at 9 weeks!

This week, Kate left to go back to school.

We were sad to see her go!

Miriam had the occasion to wear a Snoopy Snowsuit that Uncle Peter gave to her for Christmas. It keeps her toasty!


We took an adventure in the cold on another day, I caught her smiling in the carseat:


I think this one captures her personality pretty well. Until next time!

Some Funnies!

Miriam is growing! This onesie is almost too small for her, I had a hard time getting it over her head. It got stuck, and in the funniest way, I just couldn't help but crack up when I flashed back to the Gremlins or an Ewok. I hope she forgives me for laughing at her, and for taking pictures to share with you all. Hmm, could this be yearbook material when she is a senior in High School?







In this picture, I was testing which chair to use for the pictures with the baptismal gown on. I was also checking for light in the room (sorry, artist's perfection here!) So i had her positioned, she was sitting well....I stepped back...she still looked good...and then right as I took the picture she slumped over. Silly Mommy! She has a smile on her face, though. She was having as much fun as I was.

Baptized on January 7, 2007

Miriam didn't care too much to be dressed in the special family Christening gown. It was the most she has ever cried in church! Maybe she's not a girly-girl, and if that's the case, it's ok! Special thank you to Brian, Kate, Susan, Julie and Doran for being present- certainly making the day more special and memorable because you were there.



































Later that week, Miriam and I had the opportunity to visit the Von Kohorn's in CT. It was a really lovely visit, we stayed for 5 days; allowing John some time to study without distractions and Miriam and I some quality time with our close family friends. It also provided me with an opportunity to take some more formal pictures of Miriam in the gown, which I think came out fabulous!













And the one that turned out the best:
