Good Deals...

With the baby here, shoestring shopping has been on hiatus! Actually, it has sort of been on overdrive since I haven't done any realy grocery shopping in almost 3 weeks! I have been, however perusing the local circulars for some deals that I think would be worth going to the store for!

Happy Resurrection Sunday!

Annabelle went to church for the first time on Easter Sunday, (twice actually) and made it through the whole sermon (which was an excellent one, I might add) without a peep! I think she actually recognized Pastor John's voice from in the womb! What an excellent day for her first official visit...Easter Sunday...the foundation of our faith...to kick off her church going days!

Isn't she lovely!

They say "Lightning doesn't strike twice"...but somehow I ended up with TWO beautiful daughters!

Here she is!!!

Annabelle Joyce DuBois has arrived. She was born at 4:12 am Friday April 3rd, 7 lbs 5 oz, 19 1/2 inches long.

Welcome to world, Annabelle. We have so much love for you and are so thankful to our Lord for blessing our family with you!
