Precious Baby Mary!

This is me...

Sigh. Smile.

This is my babe!

We've had 3 babes in this home, they all have loved standing under the table here. 

8 months old tomorrow.

17 1/2 pounds of (as my mother says... "tender juicy baby flesh!") LOVE it!!

Mary has heard her name quite a lot this month. 

We are always saying "Merry Christmas"

and she perks right up and giggles thinking that we're talking to her!

I love my babes more now than I ever have.  It just keeps getting better.

I so enjoy and marvel at watching them grow,

but I'm appreciating that one day, we won't have anymore babes in the home.  Boo hoo.

At least I should start having grandchildren by the time the littlest ones grow up. 

That way, I'll never have empty arms.

Thank you Lord, for children!  (Especially mine! hee!hee!)
