Did she just get more beautiful?!

Allie/AJ's second day in the world was a busy one. She saw a pediatrician who reported that she is doing great, spent time with Daddy, Aunt Debbie, her big brothers and Mom-Mom and Poppie Lam. She's a deilghtful baby and we all love her so very much.


Wes, the loving big brother, got to hold AJ today. This was a BIG deal.


Already a thumb sucker--and its only day 2!




Mom-Mom loved holding her first great granddaughter.


Poppie didn't hold her, but plans to visit next week so we'll be sure to get more pictures then.


Waiting his turn for more fun with his baby sister.


I love this series of photos. You can really see Carson warming up to her.













I've been asked "Where was Carson yesterday?" Carson was extremely nervous about meeting his little sister. He described having a sister as "getting his wish" but he took quite a while to warm up to her. Yesterday he was here playing with the toys Allison got for him. There was no interest in touching her, or really even glancing her way. When it was time to go home, he did give her a quick kiss... on her hat.

Today he came after camp and after a few minutes agreed to let us take a picture with Steve holding her. But he still wouldn't touch her. Finally, right before they went home, he crawled onto my bed (Allie was being held by Mom-mom). But, since Mom-mom had to go, I held AJ, and the pictures, above, were the result of the 3 of us sitting close.

We're so excited to bring Allison home with us tomorrow.

(Yes, I love her name and nicknames so much that I still can't decide what I'll call her!)
