Luci's Baptism Gown

Luci's grandma, Peggy Alley, made her baptism gown. It is absolutely gorgeous. The details are a little hard to see in the picture, but it has a lot of hand embroidery on the gown and the slip underneath. The bodice is alternating strips of lace with puffy long sleeves tied with ribbon. The embroidery has a bow that is done in shadow work while the rest of the stitching is done on top of the fabric. Grandma also embroidered Luci's name and date of baptism on the slip. Grandma experimented on the gown and also learned a new stitch for her - the scalloped edging on the slip. She was still working on completing it on the plane out to Oregon. Making the tiniest of button holes by hand. Thank you Grandma! We love it and Luci looks beautiful.

Here's a link to Luci's Baptism on YouTube. Enjoy the pictures too! Luci was such a beautiful baby in the gown that her Grandma made her.

Halloween

On Friday, we went downtown to trick-or treat at the businesses. Luci only made it to the restaurant we were meeting at. She was tired! But we still got to see a lot of friends all dressed up. Luci and Maggie were Thing 1 and Thing 2.

Saturday was the Beaver game. Daddy dressed up as a golfer and went to the game. Luci and mommy went to the Lake's house for a hair cutting party and then all those at the game showed up later.

Sunday was Halloween and we had the Konings over for brunch. Took a nice walk to the park and finally got a picture of the girls all dressed up together. We only had 2 knocks on our door for Halloween. Guess we'll be saving that candy one more year!

What's in your wallet?

Rolling Over!

I rolled over during tummy time - from my belly to my back. So what if I had a little prop under me to help me strengthen my neck...

2 months old!

I'm now two months old. I got my first round of shots and found out that I weigh 12lbs. 9oz and I'm 21 3/4inches long. I weigh a lot but I'm not very long yet! I get plenty of food and rest. I'm sleeping any where between 6 to 8 hours at night and then after I eat, I go right back asleep until the time my mommy actually wants to get up (usually any time between 7:30 and 8:30). I went on a mini roadtrip to Southern Oregon to meet my great Aunt Pat. And let me tell you - she is GREAT! She is quite the hostess and now I know why my mommy and daddy like to visit her. We went to a pumpkin patch with her and had some delicious meals.
