7 Weeks Old & Full of Smiles


Baby G is 7 weeks old now, and in the past week she smiled for the first time! At first, it was just a fleeting, occasional thing, but now she is doing it all the time. It completely melts our hearts!

Baby G at 6 Weeks!

Gabriella, also known as Baby G, turned 6 weeks old today! Time has been flying by. Some of the things she loves right now are bath time, staring at the sky, holding hands, going for walks, and being held and sung to.
We love her so much, and feel so blessed to be her parents!

Our New Little Bundle of Joy!


 Our little bundle of joy, Gabriella Kalea Ossa, arrived on September 4, 2012 at 1:18 pm, weighing 8 lbs, 3 oz, and measuring 20 inches.We are loving every minute with her. She is happy baby and is really content most of the time, unless she is hungry, and then she lets us know!
I always secretly sort of thought that the term "Bundle of Joy" was a little over the top, but being a parent now I understand. There is no better term than that for the love of a new baby.
They truly are "Bundles of Joy."
