Last week we flew into San Diego to find the kids school they will attend, and to find our new home. We were lucky enough to be successful in both areas, but you'll read about the highlight of our trip below!
It was really an amazing moment when I finally got to hold Eva in my arms for the first time. Yes, my new niece was nearing on six months old when I was able to meet her for the first time! What an incredible creation my brother Dana and his wife Brooke have brought to life. Eva is such a happy baby, so full of life and bounding with smiles! Meeting her for the first time brought tears to my eyes. Here she is with her Daddy!
Usually I take so many photos I have plenty to choose from. I think my brain was so focused on the mission I was on to find our new place, that I was a slacker photographer! I will fess up to that, although Brooke will agree that part of my issue was little Mr. Rocky. He wanted to be the center of every picture and would specifically try to be right in front of his mom in EVERY picture, at least in this particular session! I just love how this picture shows just how much mutual adoration they have for one another. Hey, if I was Rocky, I'd be a little jealous too! lol On a serious note, Brooke is an amazing Mom to both Eva and Rocky. She loves them both so much, that is evident. The title Mom fits her perfectly.
Ooooh, I just loved being able to cuddle up to Eva Bear!! She is such a sweet and happy baby! So ready to smile and bring life to this world! ...so full of wonder! Just wait 'till her cousins get there hands on her! They are going to fall in love, just like I did!
Dana and Brooke took us out to dinner one night to a clients restaurant, named Rockin' Baja's. Here is the couple in action! Boy was the food yummy, and it was really nice to finally sit down with them and one of Ryan's coworkers Paulette and her husband Bo. It was so sweet to see just how much Paulette and Bo want to hold and play with Eva. She is the little princess, to say the least!
Here we are with Paulette and Bo! We are missing Dana, Brooke and Eva in this picture :( so we are going to have to schedule a retake on this photo! Hey, I know Ryan and I wouldn't mind doing this night over! We had an amazing time with family and friends when Ryan wasn't working in the office, and we weren't working on getting things ready for us to move in a few weeks.
Just had to add this adorable picture of Rocky laying right underneath Eva's Bouncer. Such a cute little guy!
