Family and Friends are a Blessing!

Just when my exhaustion level maxes out, friends and family come to the rescue! It's so nice to have people come over to talk to and or give me a little bit of a break! haha I'm not really sleeping in this picture, but Abram was zonked as usual after eating...the hardest part of my day is getting him to wake up after he eats...and then get him to go to sleep at night.

My friend Kristen brought her son, Lewis, over for a visit. He is a month younger than Abram...should have been two weeks apart but Abram was a week early and Lewis was a week late!

Our families came for the Baby Dedication at church. Curtis's mom brought us the outfit that Curtis wore at his dedication, so that was pretty special. My Aunt Paula surprised me by coming down with Mom, Dad and Leslie. It was great to have them there for the weekend! Leslie stayed for the entire week and then Uncle Travis came at the end of the week to see Abram for the first time.

Baby Dedication at Northside is a big event...there were about 20 babies (up to 36 months old) up on stage and that was just one of 4 services! I'm not biased or anything, but I think Abram had the best picture for the slide show.

How beautiful is that picture!?! I will do a post later featuring more great photographs by my friend, Donna.


Abram likes when Grandpa visits because they bounce and dance together.

Last weekend we went to Grandma and Grandpa's house! Abram was ready to greet his visitors wearing his "James Dean" look...white onesie, blue jeans and Old Navy shoes. My current favorite outfit:)

Family and friends came over to visit and meet Abram. He was passed around from aunt to cousin to aunt and did very little napping in his new porta-crib.

But when he did get to sleep in it, he slept very well! Good job Grandma!

Sunday evening we had dinner at Curtis's brother's house, so Abram got to see that side of the family too! Here he's posing in his church clothes (sans shoes) with his cousins Caleb and Eli.
Abram and Aunt Kimberly

Four generations.

Just had to add this one...check out the look Abram's giving Caleb! haha

Hooray! Lewis is famous! :) I scrolled down and thought "Hey, does Abram have the same car seat cover as Lewis" Duh. :) I LOVE the pic you chose for his baby dedication picture. Handsome boy.
