Days and moments leading up to the big arrival:

Just days before Mason's birth she was clearly working on her big girl fashion.

She's been carrying her ice cream cones everywhere recently!
She takes after her parents.

Goofing around with Grandpa Jimbo!

Nana / Marilyn /Nanny and Grandpa / Pete / Gramps had this chair
reupholstered this chair, which Nana got when she was five years old. Hannah loved it,
as will all of the grandkids, present and future.

Kristi and Sara stopped by the hospital to see us, and they did a
great job taking extra care to give Hannah attention.

I LOVE all the pictures. Mason is precious and Hannah is too cute for words. I think my favorite picture is of hannah being "very" gentle with Mason, haha. It stinks not being able to be there. We are thinking of you all and love you dearly. Oh and where did Grandpa Jimbo get his shirt?!?!
I'm beyond words. Precious - all four of you!!!!
Yeah, I agree, these pics are amazing. I hope you guys are backing up your files. Let me know if you need help doing that -- you don't want to lose these!
