We had a great, crazy week. Samuel's parents visited for a few days. We went to the Paris hotel and ate Crepes. If you haven't ever done that, MAKE IT A PRIORITY next time you come to Vegas. They are phenomenal. And the atmosphere of the hotel is so romantic and Paris-like.
Funny story...Kalia was running around and ran RIGHT SMACK into some lady (and fell down) and the lady felt so bad, she pulled out a $25 chip from the casino tables and gave it to her! We took it to the cashier and cashed it in. Thanks Kalia! Your wildness paid off this time. Literally.
We had a lot of family in town for Thanksgiving, and so we made the most of it and blessed Annaliese on the 30th. I was able to relax and it enjoy it more this time (I was so nervous during Kalia's that something would go wrong, and I missed the whole Spirit of it.) It was a wonderful blessing...although I don't like this picture at all. Oh well.
I was especially glad that all my sisters (and their families) were there. That was a first, and made it even better.
Oh yeah, SAW TWILIGHT MOVIE! Went in with LOW EXPECTATIONS and came out very happy with it...even Edward. I did NOT think I'd like him, but I did. A lot. I want to read the book and see the movie again. I had to post this picture because it was too cute. Thanksgiving at my aunt's house was crazy...about 50 people there? The cousins took a group bath...they all fit in one (big) tub! These hooded towels were adorable.
Annaliese weighed in at 10 lbs 8 oz at her last appointment (3 weeks old). I can't believe she gained 2 and 1/2 lbs in 3 weeks. But look at those cheeks...love it! She is still doing great, but has a fussy period around 10 or 11 almost every night. We are doing all the tricks! Swaddling, shushing, sucking...it works pretty good. We are loving this little chub so much, even with her sqawky cry. :)

Great post! I am so glad the blessing went well and that is the cutest post tub picture ever! I love those cheeks. I need to see her soon so I can pinch them. What if they go away soon? I will be so sad...
I always wanted my babies to be chunky. I love a chunky baby! The blessing was beautiful and how great your families could be there! I'll have to try those crepes sometime ;)
What was wrong with the picture of Allie exposing herself? :) I should've let KyKy get in, even though she had just taken a bath. She was sad to miss out on all the fun.
Beautiful Mommy = beautiful little girls!
And Kalia is making money in Vegas at such an early age? I don't know what to say! :)
I love the hooded towel picture! Those things are the greatest things ever!!! Annaliese is getting so big...is she starting to look a lot like Kalia or is it just me?
Your new little girl it too precious! Glad that blessing went well. How wonderful to have so much family around.
