A visit from Uncle Chris and Aunt Lauren

Today is Saturday, October 27, 2007

Dear Addy,

We picked up your Uncle Chris and Aunt Lauren this morning from the Airport. They came just to see you. I have some pictures below.

Your Dad went to Waycross, Ga. with your Grandpa Soltau to pick up his NEW truck. He wants a nice 4 door truck for you to ride in. See picture below.

We are all watching the Florida / Georgia Game together (You are alseep in the Moses Basket on the floor).... not a care in the world.

You have been such a sweet baby, not too fussy, sleeping most of the night and already gained several ounces (Now 8lbs - 3 oz.)

Love,

Pappy

HOMECOMMING DAY!

Today is Monday, October 15, 2007

Dear Addy,

Today your Mom and Dad brought you home from the hospital to your home on Edgemere Drive (Ramsgate in Mandarin).

We were all excited to have you home and Your Mom and Dad were so glad to be home, especially your Dad as he has been sleeping on a cot in the hospital room so he could help your Mom during the night.

Your Grandma Soltau decorated the door and mantle to welcome you home. Grandma Harris helped your Mom and Dad at the hospital get you safely home.

Here are a few pictures of your home on that day.

Love,

Pappy
