New Babies in 2009

December 28th: This really should have been videotaped! We attempted to get a picture of all the new granddaughters born this year to my mom and dad. We had five baby girls born between May 11th and Aug. 21. Whew! It didn't help that Maria can crawl away and Marie can roll. And, most were tired and hungry, but what fun would it be if they all just laid there and smiled at us?

In order of youngest to oldest: Kate, Elizabeth, Anna (4 months), Marie (5 months) and Maria (7.5 months)

Maria was not a happy camper

This one is better

A quick picture of Marie with the Scudder girls while Maria was consoled

Scudder girls--all were cooperating fairly well for some reason

Another try for a picture with Maria sitting and Marie flipped over.

Marie eyeing Anna's hand as a potential object to suck on.

Looks pretty good to her, Anna is not so sure about the whole thing.

Anna and Marie

Little miracles all born healthy and happy to three families. Can't wait to watch them grow up together.
