She is simply an angel! I loved watching her sleeping. I think it's cute how she always has her arms raised above her head! Even when she stirred, the arms stayed up! Hmm. What could this mean? Future cheerleader? Football referee? Nascar "start your engines" girl? Oh lordy!!!
The colors of the sunset as we drove this evening were spectacular. I wanted to take one out of the window, but at 80 mph there was just too much wind. Oh well. It was worth a try. I think we were in South Carolina by this point. I have a feeling that this route is going to get a LOT more familiar over the next year!! I already miss little Willow. I can't wait till we go back up to Virginia in December!!
Can I just say how much I love small towns?? My sister, the UGA fan, had to watch the GA-FL game. Since baby Willow (and her mom!) were sleeping, we decided to hit up the bar across the street from our hotel. I'm not an American football fan, but I am a beer fan! They have Yuengling on tap here (which up until last Monday, has NOT been available in Georgia) and we wanted to take advantage. After our first round of pints, the waitress informed us that it was now happy hour and 32 oz glasses were $2.75!! (Same price as the pints had been, which already was a bargain!) We had a good time and definitely took advantage of happy hour!!! Sadly for my sister, though, GA was smashed something like 42-10??
I think Aunt Mandy was telling little Willow all about the plans she has to teach her about the fun things in life! Willow was listening intently. In fact, she's got all kinds of fun faces! My favorite is her "oh my goodness!" surprised look. She's such a great baby. Hardly cried yesterday except when she was hungry or needed changing. She just slept and ate and hung out. She wasn't anxious at all being passed around and held by all of us, either. I can't wait to go back and see her today!!
Meet Willow, my first niece! 6lbs 10oz, born this morning at 5:30! This is a screenshot of a photo my brother took. They are in Virginia so I can't take any photos myself yet, until we go up this weekend. I tried taking a photo of the screen with my camera but couldn't get a clear shot. I figure the computer camera counts still, right??
