Chris and David In Arizona

This blog is out of order. It should be about 300 blogs ago, but I wanted you to see the pictures that weren't on the blog originally. Original blog was written last November. Lydia was born Oct. 21, 2007.

We are very excited to start our new (winter) life in Arizona except for one thing - we will
miss our children and grandchildren terribly! We would normally have planned on
moving in October, but decided to wait until November because we were expecting a new granddaughter.

I was hoping and even prayed that she might come a little early so we could see her several times before we left. My prayer was answered and little Lydia came a week early. She's wonderful of course! She's having a little trouble learning to nurse though. That innate skill doesn't come as natural for either the mother or the baby as one would think it should.

She has a small amount of blond hair like both parents. Actually, Chris has lots of blond hair, and Lydia has more than her daddy. That's at least true for the top of the head.

She has blue eyes and so far is quite small. It'll be fun watching Lydia grow.
