Photos from last weekend.
Tags:Henry, Liz, and John are all doing well. Thank you for your continued prayers and positive thoughts and love. My mom says that he has a full head of hair and is just the cutest little guy. I am waiting for some photos...and I already made a layout for him.
Had an awesome time at the baby shower last weekend. We were at my cousin's home and there were kids everywhere - it was awesome - we were all commenting about how many kids were there (no more just hanging out and chatting). Lots of running, chasing, playing, etc. And lots of little boys :). Our kids now out-number the amount of cousins we had growing up (on the McDougall side). Love my cousins :) (on both sides).
Here is one of my favorite shots - Simon & Graham:
And one of the gifts my Mom gave John and Liz was John's Astronaut Cabbage Patch doll. Yep, my Mom still had it - and not only did she have the doll, she also had the "papers" from the doll's birth. Guess what the doll's name was: Lizzie.
Love this one of John (my brother), Jessica (my sister) and me.
And Liz's mom, my cousin's wife Cristina, my Mom, and new Mommy Liz.
Other favorites:
We took a big family photo and this is one of everyone checking it out on the camera. Lots of cameras in this group.
And one more of my super dude:

What a GREAT time it looks like your family had together. And the astronaut Cabbage Patch Kid... I had forgotten that they made those! How awesome that your mom saved everything, including the papers (my mom did the same thing for mine!)
And that last photo of Simon... he looks SO grown up! It seems like he's growing up so fast... I guess that's what kids do!
Thanks for sharing with us :)
