Hands and Feet, Fingers and Toes


There are so many cute and wonderful things about tiny little Caitlin, but my favorite has to be her teeny hands and feet. They are so small but perfect! Everyone who sees her fingers and toes comments on how long they are...hmm perhaps we have a future musician in the making? Here's hoping!

I love kissing her feet everytime I partially undress her to change her diaper (which is about 7-8 times a day right now...that's a lot of wet wipes-! [and feet kisses!]).

What a blessing from the Lord, that we can witness his intricate design in her!

How adorable! A musician eh? I wouldn't be surprised! :)

Oh yeah, I was going to tell you that last nite at Downtown worship service we sang Light the Fire and for some reason I thought of the May Youth Retreat and how you were our fire starter all the time. It brought back good memories of our time spent at that retreat. Can't wait to see you again...

Check my blog for some interesting news...if you haven't already seen it on facebook ;)

I know exactly what you mean - every time I saw my niece when she was a baby I had to touch her little toes! they looked like pearls... I was so close to cry every single time ;-)
and everybody laughed at me when I showed pictures from my visit at my sisters place two years ago because I made a bunch of pictures of my baby-nephews feet/toes.

May the LORD continue to shine His face upon you as you begin your journey as a mother to such an adorable baby girl! I pray for you and will continue to daily that God will meet all your needs and that you and Grady will make a good parenting team. All for God's glory!

She is so cute Allison. I have to ask.. is the hair dryer to warm the wipes for baby behind? I can't think of any other reason it would be on the change table ;)

Long fingers? Look at them long laigs! ;oD I know it's just the camera angle, but her legs look about a mile long in that last picture. ;oD

I love how pink she is! ;o)

That's funny about the finger comments. It seems that everybody says how long the fingers are when they're that little--until the fingers fatten up :) I bet she WILL have long fingers, though, since yours are elegantly LONG!

She seems very alert for her age (here I'm referring to the first week fotos). She reminds me all the way back to my little Olivia who seemed unusually alert her first few weeks compared to other newborns. Watch out! She's already ready to learn and reach out to the world!
