Gatlinburg Weekend with Friends

This past weekend we met up with our very best friends in Gatlinburg for a fabulous weekend in a sweet little cabin. Everyone had so much fun.

The girls loved taking baths together:

Even Jasper came and loved his weekend adventure:

Karisse and Finley had to have some pictures together:

This is a picture of the girls (minus karisse), right before we left:

We love our friends! Look how much we've grown... and in the beginning of 2010 we'll be adding 2 new girls to the bunch: Libby Kate and Daisy McClain!

Big Sister Training!

Saturday we took Finley to a Jr. Sibling class at the hospital. She learned all kinds of good information on how to be a good big sister. We had a blast!

She first got to color Libby Kate a birthday card:

Then there was story time:

The teacher showed us all what the babies look like inside of Mommy's tummy:

After movie, snack and potty time, Finley got to pick out a baby doll (her favorite part) to borrow for the rest of the class:

She had to measure the baby:

She got to do a handprint:

Then Finley got to get a bottle, blanket, and butt-wipe:

She fed her baby:

Practiced washing her hands:

Loved on baby:

Fed her:

Cleaned up her "poopy":

Wrapped her up like a burrito:

After all of the tasks were complete, Finley received her certificate of completion and a Big Sister t-shirt.

She tried on some Dr. stuff:

After the class we got to go on a tour of the hospital! We are so proud of our little helper! She's very ready for her baby sister!
