Can i touch him mommy??????

Carey and Sandra (AKA- Grandad and Sani) wanted to take the boys down to see Thomas when he came to town. I had always wanted to take them but never got around to it so they let me go also. We had a great time. Skyler was in amazement and as most of you know, he loves ALL things Thomas. When we were standing to take a photo with Thomas i bet he asked me 10 times if he could touch Thomas. He was in Heaven! When we went shopping in the TENT that you could spend THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS in, Skyler found the perfect train - SPENCER. He informed us that Spencer was the FASTEST engine on Sodor. So, he carries Spencer everywhere he goes right now, even to bed. Ty likes Thomas too but not like my little Skyler. He just wanted to play and wear his cool new sunglasses. We all had a great time! Thanks Sani and Grandad!!!!!!!!

More photos of Annalace.......and us

I'm adding photos daily. the boys were very excited! VERY EXCITED!!!!!!!! We'll have to give it a few days and a lot less of a crowd before they can be there with her. I don't have any photos of them holding her because i was helping hold her in their arms, so Aonya, send me photos. Anyway, here are a few of us holding her. And I'll post more soon!

Welcome to the World Annalace....

Annalace was born at 11:21 on Monday morning, weighing 7 pounds 12 ounces and 21 inches long. She is beautiful and sleeps like her daddy (mouth open). LOL! We can't tell who she looks like yet but her eyes are blue. She has very tired but HAPPY parents. Lacy is very glad that she is here and out of her body. We've all been there haven't we ladies????? I'll post some more photos later. The boys are on their way to see their new cousin!!!!!!!!!!! This should be interesting!!!!!!

Here's the kicker...................

SKYLER took these photos!!!!!!!!!!!! He began to show an interest in the camera one day so i showed him how to push the button, look through the lens, then wait until it focused, and of course taking the shot!!!!!!!!!!! I have to say, i'm so proud!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have groomed a little photographer. It's really hard to get this kind of sharpness and clarity (you are seeing low resolution for web) in photos so i guess that is why i'm so proud.

These shots will be called my silly faces photos photo shoot. I converted them to black and white since i needed some self portraits anyway for this weekend's Scrap Etc event. So, they will go on a Scrapbook page, of course. I may even let him help with the page since he took the photos!!!!!!!!!!!
