Alexandra Grace

Our most exciting new adventure as a family is baby Ali (or "Sisser" as Calvin calls her). Alexandra Grace was born on March 27th after an intense labor of 13 minutes! It was crazy to say the least. She weighed in at 5 pounds 14 ounces and was 18 1/2 inches long. Our little monkey is healthy and so pretty. Aside from a little jealousy from Calvin we're so glad she's here!

Big Brother

For the most part Calvin has adapted well to the new baby. Jordan bought Calvin this chair the day after we brought Ali home. While she was under the lights he sat right next to her to keep an eye on her.

This was the first time Calvin held Ali. Since I had to capture this historical moment, he now expects me to take his picture every time he holds her. Needless to say he loves holding her just so I'll take a picture of him!

just 'cause she's pretty . .

Mr. Clean

Calvin is developing a friendship with Mr. Clean these days. A couple of months ago he had a rendezvous with a black Sharpie all over the house. After quite some effort I got it off. Here Calvin is "magically erasing" his most recent piece of art!

Calvin & Hobbes

These 2 always keep me laughing! Calvin finds it necessary to torture the poor cat whenever possible and for no reason.

Example: Hobbes was taking an afternoon nap . . .
