Lance has been waiting for his baby sister for a long time. Even before she was born he loved hearing her heart beat at our checkup with the midwife.
/
Lance meets his sister for the first time and bestows his very first kiss. He has never done this before and even now he’ll kiss her all the time but won’t kiss his mommy, though she has tried.
He loves to watch and help as we take care of his sister.
Yesterday he helped me put lotion on her – her tummy is very soft now.
They do everything together: From potty training – both pooped in the potty after their naps today; To partners in crime – Ivy cries and while I attend to her, Lance makes himself a lunch of cheerios all over the kitchen floor.
These two are going to be best buddies.

Our first official outing with Ivy was to the Irving Mall Chick-fil-a. Friday was Cow Appreciation Day and if you dressed like a cow you got free food – we thought that sounded fun! My Mom and I spent the morning cutting out black spots and making signs then carted everyone up to the mall.
Lance was a sign board cow and made a big hit with the other patrons and passerby. We had several people come and ask if they could take a picture of him.
Here’s the whole family of cows, ready to “eat mor chikin!”

Emerging into this world an example of stunning artistry, wrought by the master’s hand,
Ivy has blossomed into a rosebud of dainty beauty.
Delicate hands, finely crafted, fit only for a bed of silk…
…or clutching her first dolly.
“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above and cometh down from the Father….” James 1:17
