Photographs

We seem to be having a bit of a photo-losing problem around our place these days. The big loss is all our digital photos from 2007 (unless some technological miracle recovers them from an explained computer deletion incident). This is sad, of course, as many fun momentos, particularly of Serena's growth and changes, were lost. However, some pictures have been saved, thanks to the wonders of internet photo sights, so we do have proof that we loved her enough to attempt to archive the past 10 months of her life, and enough photos to keep us entertained in our old age.
And in some ways, this will alleviate the pressure to make sure we take as many photos of our second child as we did of Serena. I'm suspecting that might be a problem since we had an ultrasound a few weeks ago (okay, almost a month) and promptly left town the next day. On the plane I found myself wondering... "Huh, where did I put those ultrasound pictures from yesterday? Did I leave them at the doctor's office? In the car?" Not only were they not with me, so I could show them to everyone I met, I didn't even know where they were. Luckily, though, I did leave them, securily stored in the car (where I'm sure I intended them to be safe from all the packing/leaving town madness). So, here are some pictures of Baby #2. We have once again decided to leave the gender a mystery until his/her arrival. Something has to be a surprise, since modern technology assures us he/she has a spine, ears, overbite, and such.

Halloween in Texas

Serena was a chick for Halloween. Had a great time walking in circles at a carnival at her grandparents' church - something about the costume threw her off...
