Annelyse Marie

Two weeks ago (can that be possible already?!), our family welcomed a new sweet little girl!

Please meet
Annelyse Marie
6 lbs, 13 oz

"Rainbow Baby" is the understanding that the beauty of a rainbow does not negate 
the ravages of the storm. When a rainbow appears, it doesn't mean the storm never 
happened or that the family is not still dealing with its aftermath. What it means is 
that something beautiful and full of light has appeared....in the midst of the 
darkness and clouds.


 We love her tremendously already.

Congratulations, Roger and Aimee!!

Beautiful "Rainbow Baby" indeed.
Love her too!

Holding the "Rainbow" analogy close to my heart!

Sooo glad Aim could have her own "Rainbow" baby! She's perfect and sooo cute!

LOVE names rich with meaning--this one especially!
Each of our three also have special meanings behind their names.
Congratulations on #6! :-)
I don't know how you do it! Mine are almost 4 yrs. old, 2 yrs. old, and 8 mos. (The 8-mo-old is starting to pull up to stand now too, just like Lola!) and I have my hands full with just three. Someday we hope to have one more, but maybe a little more space between them this time since pregnancy = bedrest for me.

Becky--Oh, I am so sorry if this post gave the wrong impression! This is my niece, not my own!

Wow, That would have been a close set of sisters! :)
