Welcome Home-------August 23, 2008

We came home to a sweet little party at the Smiths' House! Jack surely did feel like he was truly loved and highly anticipated!! The kids made a huge fuss over him...and of course his Aunt Keri couldn't wait to get hold of him! But, she was very kind and thoughtful and allowed lots of others to take up her "Jack Time."

We were greeted outside by everyone....Keri has those pictures on her camera. I will have to get those from her and add them on here later!

Elizabeth, Amy, and Jack

Pierce and Will....two of my fabulous former students....and now my dear friends!

Keri, Anne, and Brandi with Jack.

Aunt Keri finally gets her turn (again!).

Our precious friends meet our sweet Jack......He will grow to love his Uncle Andrew and Aunt Keri tremendously!! (I'm sure he already loves them!!)
Ooooooooh! The wait is over! Cute little Anna gets to hold Jack!!


I think he loves his Anna!!

Anna and Lizzie were not too sure about Aunt Ju Ju having a boy....but I think they have now changed their minds!! :)

Keri teared up when she saw her girls loving all over the baby we had ALL waited for....for so long! We are BOTH mamas!!

Aunt La La sitting pretty with Jack....talking to Mrs. Teri Holland! (Looks like Teri is waiting patienty to hold Jack by playing with a baby doll!!) :)
Jack slept through some of his party! What a cutie!




A very happy day.........Baby Jack and Uncle Jonny and Aunt Ju Ju have finally come home!! (We had been gone three weeks and a day!!)

Pierce finally gets his turn!
Will is a pro! We'll be calling on his babysitting expertise pretty soon!
Aunt Keri made her famous candy-bar announcements for Jack!!
Mrs. Amy couldn't have been more tickled!! She will be such a blessing to our family as our church's children's minister!!
