First Time for Everything

You have always been reserved and scared when it came to the shower. You always want to get in with me but then as soon as you do you get scared and get out. Today Jackson said he wanted to take a shower and you were standing by him and started trying to get your diaper off. I said "Bailey are you sure you want to get in" and you said "Yes!!" Jackson informed me that he would make sure you didn't get nervous. As soon as you got in you acted like a kid in the candy store. You were so proud of yourself and even stayed in after Jackson got out. So you enjoyed a long 30 minute shower and squealed with joy the entire time. I swear I have the best job in the world!

Finally our new site is up and running. Thanks Brady for making it just how we wanted. So from now on all entires about Jackson, Bailey, Brooklyn, and anything else about us will be at www.theverdells.com.


This site will remain up at least for another year until we can get it printed and made into Jackson's baby book.

Family Reunion

img_Apr_22_2008_08_43img_Apr_22_2008_09_28img_Apr_22_2008_19_37 Last Saturday after the diaper shower we went to Mayflower for a family reunion with all of my Nanny's brothers and sisters and their families. It was my Nanny's brother Jack's 80th B-Day. The next day was when Nanny had her aneursym so it was very special to think that all of them got to be together the day before with us. She had 10 brothers and sisters and all but one is living so it makes for big get togethers. My Nan is one of the youngest so they are all devastated as well. This was the last time we saw Nan and she was in her element. Nothing made her more happy than family. I talked to her while she was walking into Ashur's ball game where it happened and all she could talk about was the reunion and how much fun she had. Here are some pics of us their.

Girl Time

Daddy's family had a diaper and wipe shower for Brooklyn and it was wonderful. You loved helping Mommy open them and then would pile them all up for me to the side. I can already tell that having two girls is going to be a dream come true.

Brooklyn's First Time at Church

img_Mar_31_2008_07_00img_Mar_31_2008_07_18img_Mar_31_2008_08_09img_Mar_31_2008_08_32img_Mar_31_2008_09_43 Sunday we took Brooklyn to church for the first time. She wore the same dress that Bailey wore on her first visit and reminded me so much of her. Mommy was so so excited since I haven't got to go to church in two months. It was just wonderful to be there with my family. I'm getting better and better each day and am able to do more and more. Today I got to drive for the first time since Jan. so it was a very exciting day. I took Bailey for her fitting for her flower girl dress and we had so much fun. She didn't want to take off the dress and stayed in it for almost an hour. I'm not joking. Then she found some heels and put those on with a crown. She is all girl! Brooklyn...you just slept through it all. I just love time with my girls!
