Babies, A Wedding, and a Kitten

This has been such an amazing weekend!

Anne and I went to Sacramento on Friday to visit Matt & Val’s sweet baby niece Lila in the preemie ward.  She goes home soon, so we wanted to see her before she’s even farther away.

This little angel was born 2 months early at just over 2 pounds.  She has had heart surgery, many stomach surgeries (maybe 4 or 5 – I’ve lost count), and had many complications. She is now 4 months old and weighs 8 pounds and has only one feeding tube and is doing beautifully!  And what a beautiful little bundle!  Anne fell in love with her instantly, and wanted to keep her!  IMG_0938 IMG_0948

After our visit with Lila and her sweet mom Andrea, we left for my cousin Brandon’s pre-wedding dinner!  There were so many cousins and aunts and uncles there!  The whole evening and all day Saturday at the wedding festivities was pure heaven being with so much family that I adore.  And Brandon married a beautiful girl named Laura, they are a GORGEOUS couple!

We’re kitten-sitting this week!  Meet BATGIRL (we named her that since she’s pure black and looks just like a bat – minus the wings).  She’s just over 7 weeks old, and of course, we’re all in love (except Eric who probably won’t be falling in love with her anytime soon, although he does admit she’s cute).

Wishing everyone a wonderful week!
