Social hours

Getting to know Tía Carla. Look at that smile! Carla claims not to have handled a baby in 20+ years, but she was a natural, and so good with them! It was a mutual path into each other's hearts, no doubt.

Annika with our friend Nick...

Who is getting the feel for this again, as soon he will be holding his own new little one! Good on ya', Nick, Whitney and Nina!

Here's his firstborn, Nina, hilding Annika with Kristin, practicing no doubt.

Visiting with Hannah...

Hey. Hey! Did you see how cute she is? She looks like she just stepped off a movie the set of a John Hughes film! I ain't missing this!

Then again, it is nap time...

And...

Her mother Helene with Annika. Quite a jump from the size of these two when she and her husband Doug jumped in on the night watches when Annika and Luka were just about a week old. Now look at them!

Babies can apparently tell nice, kind, good people from the not nice ones. Here's Luka with our friend John. He's got this one right!

But look at that, he's funny too! 

You're nice, man, AND you're fun! Too cool.
