Meet the Aunties!

To help welcome little Silas to our big world, my sisters all came to Chattanooga meet him the week after he was born. What a wonderful time we had. It was time for us to catch up and time for the sisters that are already moms (Amanda and Alaina) to help me out with things around the house and of course motherly advice. Annie was the biggest surprise of all, because she was originally not supposed to be here. But, due to some tricky flight arranging between her and my mom, she showed up at my front door MUCH to my surprise and amazement! It was awesome to be with them, but also a little bittersweet because it makes me miss them that much more. Amanda is in Colorado, Alaina in Arkansas, and Annie in St. Louis. But, we all get to be together (and ALL the cousins) at Christmas, so it's definitely something to look forward to since this weekend visit went by sooo fast!

Here we are....on Silas' first walk. Annie is holding baby Kaiya (the first cousin Silas was able to meet).

Here is Mana and Silas (and me).

Mom with Annie and Amanda (and Kaiya...how cute is she with that hat all covering her eyes!).

Me and Annie with Silas. Annie had quite the surprise up her sleeve by showing up unannounced!!!! ;)

Here are the cousins....Kaiya and Silas. We joked about how much bigger Kaiya was than Silas, considering she IS four months older and is quite the chubbster (we kept saying it looked as though she could swallow Silas)! :)

I love you, my sistas! I can't wait until Christmas when we can all be together again--and Silas gets to meet his cousins and his uncles! Hopefully at Thanksgiving he can meet his cousin Gage and aunt Jessica and Uncle Tony (Scott's brother).
