Hannah is Two Months! The makings of a model...

This past weekend was the West Family Reunion in Whitewater, WI. Thank you, Uncle John for the pool and wonderful hospitality!

Thank you Auntie Cahtherine for the delicious treat!(Yes, it's breakfast time)

After breakfast, we enjoyed a wonderful morning at the beach!

Brotherly Sisterly Love

Josh and Emma love to hold and care for their baby sister!

Bringing Home Baby

Big Sister / Big Brother

On May 30, both Mom and Hannah were glad to meet big brother and sister. Emma and Josh are thrilled to play their roles!

Introducing Hannah Catherine Gapp

After two hours of labor, Hannah Catherine was born on May 29, 2007 at 11:25 a.m. weighing in at 7 lbs. and 13 oz.

The Actual Fourth

The Fam enjoyed downtown at the Taste of Chicago where we had lunch and enjoyed the vocal stylings of John Mayer. We had a WONDERFUL time together watching Emma and Josh dance! Thanks U.S. Cellular! (And Hannah made the photo...though still sleeping...)

Unsatisfied with her 2/3 bag full of candy, Emma waits for more...Yup, I've taught her well!
Bubba looks on from the Upper Deck...Man, my husband's a hottie!

Don't worry--it's just Luke's Daddy under all that black!
Hey Mattie--Bobafet's for you, Little Brother!

Our favorite float...ok, Fam, named that spaceship!

Happy Fourth of July!

On Sunday July 1, we celebrated Independence Day at the Crystal Lake Parade! (Hannah was lulled to sleep by the roaring sirens of the emergency vehicles and cheering crowd.)

Congratulations to our friends, Joanne and Christopher who joined us and are expecting their fourth baby girl (in five years) this upcoming September! Like mother, like daughter, little Emma is awaiting the tossing of candy with her opened paper bag.
