Burrito

When Alexis was a tiny little newborn, the best way to get her to sleep was to swaddle her up like a little burrito...


As you can see, this method no longer works!

Zoo Day

Yesterday we went to the Brookfield Zoo! Every year Mommy's company takes everyone to the zoo, and also has a picnic so that we can meet all of her co-workers. I got to practice all of my animal noises!

I liked the ducks a lot...


Look at my new snake!


Checking out the elephants...


The monkeys are my favorite animals!


The picture on the left is at zoo day in September '06, and the picture on the right is from yesterday. Can you believe how big I have gotten in a year??!! Last year Daddy had to hold me up so that I wouldn't fall over!

Baby News

Exciting news! We have a new cousin! Ellen Anne was born early this morning, weighing in at 6 lbs 5 oz. Congrats to Uncle Kev, Aunt Agnes, Rose and Kevin on their new addition. We can't wait to meet her.

In other news, we have ANOTHER new baby cousin on the way in April... this one will be the second child for our cousins Kevin and Kelly. The family is growing by leaps and bounds! Parties are really fun with all of the little ones running around. We are also awaiting the birth of yet another cousin, due in November to Meg and Rick. Counting Alexis' generation, we now have 33 cousins on the O'Shea side, and many more if we count spouses. We are very fortunate to have so many new arrivals in our family!

Alexis is excited about all of the new babies, so she has been practicing changing diapers... see below. We just wish she would learn to change her own!
