The Celebration of Carlos Phinehas

A few weeks ago, we all gathered at the R.'s home for our darling nephew Carlos' baby shower, and what a wonderful time we had! We enjoyed delicious food, fun games, laughter, looking at lovely gifts, holding babies and just being together as we rejoiced over Carlos Phinehas Morton...God bless you, little man! The beautiful spread...Bienvenidos, Carlos!
Sweet Mrs. K. We played this hilarious game of clothes-pin collecting-if you caught someone crossing their legs, you got to have their pin, and who ever had the most pins at the end of the afternoon got a prize-LOL, it was fun... I think Becka's winning.. ;)
Look!! She's walking and clapping...must be a multi-tasker! Mrs. Christine and Martha Ann

Baby Feet...

While we're blogging about our darlings, I thought I'd share these sweet pictures of Carlos getting his little feet stamped...aww...they're so precious and tiny!
Preparing to stamp...

Voila!! Aren't they beautiful!? Poor baby, I don't think he enjoyed it very much, though, LOL!Inky feet... Carlos was a dear, of course, and was very cooperative with his irksome Auntie, not even complaining when the process was over, that his cute onesie was spotted here and there with a few dots of that black stuff!! What a gracious little sprout...

This picture is for Brittney. LOL! Look, it's your "wave"!! ;) Now, all clean, honey child!!

You have precious feet, little man...use them to carry out the Lord's work. Ah, for how blessed are the feet of them that bring good news!
