Alyssa's blessing

Alyssa was blessed on April 13, 2008. Alyssa's Aunt Sarah took some beautiful pics of Aly in her blessing dress. Thanks Sarah!

Rolling Over

On Friday April 25th, Alyssa rolled over for the first time. She likes to roll from her back to her tummy and always rolls over on her left side. Funny girl! Now we have to keep a closer eye on her, cause she definitely doesn't like to sit still.

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter! The Easter Bunny visited our house and brought Alyssa some Easter treats. Alyssa also got to show off her new Easter dress at church today...cute girl!

We may need to work on our parenting skills, apparently Alyssa and the bunnies had a little too much to drink last night!

Aly in blue and with Great Grandpa too

Aly is not so sure of Dad taking pictures of her before she's had her lunch.

Adam and the MV Duathlon

Adam came and visited us a couple weekends ago to participate in a Duathlon (you run a 5K, bike a 40K and run a 5K). Here are some pics.

Love this pic

My mom took this picture of Alyssa while she was here and it's one of my favorites!

Alyssa is ONE month old

Lunch with friends in Scottsdale, AZ

We were able to meet our friends from law school, Eric, Amy, Livy and London for an awesome lunch. We ate at the Tommy Bahama cafe (they have one here in Newport Beach) which I'm totally excited about because the food was so yummy.

Alyssa's crib and some cute pics

Doug and I just love Alyssa's cute little face here.

On Valentine's day Alyssa received her 1st rose from her daddy.

Alyssa's 1st bath

While in Tucson, Alyssa's belly button had healed so Grandma could give her her 1st bath. Alyssa loved the bath and was so good.

It was lots of fun seeing Doug's family and having Alyssa meet her Aunts Becky and Liz and Uncle Mikey. We also were able to sneak in a quick visit to Phoenix and see our good friends the Nielsen's. We just love them and were sad we couldn't visit longer. Pics are coming, hopefully soon. We have some cute pics of Livy and Alyssa together.

Alyssa meets her Grandparents

My parents flew to California from Hawaii on Friday (the day after Alyssa was born). They were able to take some time off to help with the baby and recovery process. It was lovely.

We drove out to Tucson, AZ over the President's day holiday to visit Doug's parents and introduce the 21st grandchild, Miss Alyssa Kate, to Grandpa and Grandma Higham.
