This morning my little sister {and her husband}
had a
2 lb baby girl
who they named
INDIA LAMORA
she is born three months premature
she is thriving and so far doing good and healthy as expected
but if you can say a little prayer for them
that would be awesome!
The poor girl and her husband have had a fair share of trials since they got married if you remember she is the same one who met with an "I'm having a bad day and I'm going to make an example of you" angry immigration officer in England when going over to be with her husband for the summer after being married 2 weeks before that..... GOT DEPORTED then finally after a year of being apart with a few visit's in between.... they got back together in march, got pregnant and 6 months into it she delivers this beautiful baby girl who we pray will fight and grow and thrive!
so my little sister is a mommy today with a fighter of a princess.... who needs all the prayers we can send their way...

L turned 6 this week! My baby girl is 6 that is crazy...
we spent the day with a family party and her friend party will be soon
she wanted ice cream cake so that's what she got: she wanted a tea set and a doll....
The doll came in the mail I ordered it from and amazingly talented girl Christine here is her link she makes them to look like your little ones
L loves her doll!
She had a fun birthday and the first thing she said when she woke up and came into our room was
"dad and mom it's the weirdest thing I feel like i'm taller its so weird" we had a good laugh!
and here is the recipe for her
ice cream cake
graham crust {2 cups crumbs/1/2 cup icing sugar and 1/2 cup melted butter cook for about 8 minutes at 350 cool completely}
gallon of vanilla ice cream {softened}
can of lemonade
...mix ice cream and the can of lemonade till smoother and blended
then pour over cooled crust save some of the crust for the top sprinkle that over top and I happened to have a lemon in the fridge so I added some finely grated rind to the mixture and top
then freeze over night or for the day cut in squares and serve

he may have slept for a year not quite but over the past month and half he has developed the sweetest little personality that we all can't get enough of!!
-He waves and says nite nite {when he feels like it of course}
-he said "up" to me yesterday
he loves the phone and says hi hi and is fascinated with whoever is one the other end usually he says dad dad!
-he is getting braver walking everywhere and getting into EVERYTHING
-he loves bathing or swimming with his brothers
-he is beyond ticklish and has the best laugh
-he loves to eat {and now smears his food in his hair all over his face the tray the floor ahhh}
-he loves trucks books and story time
-he is such a handsome fun baby that we all can't get enough of we sure LOVE him!!!
