You know, I'm all about clear pictures but I just LOVE the one of you Melissa and Lily that is blurry. First off...It's great of you but second, it so captures the moment. You are going to look back on it and say, yup it was all a blur. It's the perfect photo! Love ya girl.

OMG Pat and Missy!!!! She is even more adorable in your arms! What a love... I cannot imagine what you guys are experiencing but soak it all up (as I know you are) and keep thinking about each scrapbook page as you go. I just showed her to Maeve and she loves her..she said she wanted to trade Isla for "one like dat" and pointed to Lily. Best of luck for the rest of your travels and transitions. Thinking of you guys all the time!
