She is precious.

Gwen,
I have to teach her what we taught our kids...
OK.. are you ready...?? I doubt it

start with the little toe..
Little pee, pee da lou, lou da whistle, ossle nossle, and GREAT BIG gobble gobble....

No kid can resist...

But I think her aunt Connie has to do it...

Sweet kisses to her and the boys

Absolutely precious! I was just checking in for a surgery update. I have been thinking of Ivey today. The post below this one is so good, Gwen. You have such a great outlook on your sweet life. Let us know how the t-ball game went, too! What a mom! Your children (and husband) are truly blessed!

Thank you all so much for taking time to share this milestone with our family. It is so great that you all are a part of our lives just as Ivey is a part of yours. And yes, I will give our reason for going with green. As soon as I get all of the pictures downloaded I will post more. There are only 300 or so to choose from! If you haven't left Ivey a comment, please do. Someday when she is older she will marvel at the love and prayer that surrounds her - in all the moments of her life. gwen

Our intersection in the elevator set the stage for the years to follow. From that point on, he knew I was a little nuts and a lot...
