Sprinkling with Friends

Thursday, April 3, 2014


A week after Kristin's shower given by the ladies at our hometown church, Kristin's best friends and their moms sprinkled Hughes with another little shower.  It was a fun get-together with yummy food and great company.  We enjoyed visiting over an early lunch menu.


We were excited to have more out of town family join us for this day.  My cousin and her mom drove in from Jackson with Selah Grace.  It was fun to see Selah Grace growing so fast and looking so completely adorable!  Selah Grace and Millie Janalee weren't the only little ones around.  Sweet Rayne joined us too, and Millie Janalee enjoyed talking to "the baby".  I think it was the first time we saw Rayne smile all day.  She liked watching Millie Janalee flit around dancing and singing her heart out for the big captive audience.


Millie Janalee was so excited to get down and run around the big room filled with gifts and people and open space.  She literally danced in circles, ran around, talked and sang, played "peek a boo", and helped Auntie Kristin open gifts the entire time.



We did manage to slow her down long enough to sit with MawMaw for a little while.  I'm pretty sure it made MawMaw's day.  She loves it when Millie Janalee can slow down long enough for quality time.


It's happening.  Hughes will be here very soon.  This month is what we expect.  His due date is April 24th, so we are all on countdown mode.  These three cousins will soon have their own little baby cousins.  And things are about to get rowdy!  Our beach trips will never be the same.  And, yes, this year's beach trip is planned for all three babies to be in tow! 

Bring on the full-time beach baby duty!


After the shower, Clancy, Aunt Patsy, Uncle Howard, and Selah Grace joined us at Kristin and Lee's to just hang out and enjoy the afterglow.  We let the girls play on the floor.  Millie Janalee loved talking to the baby.  She kissed her and loved her and tried to squish her and all the other things a 20 month old would do to a little helpless person.  Ha!





These little girls are ready for a protective little boy to join ranks!
