  • We forgot to mention

    It’s been a while since we found out but we had to keep things under wraps for a while. Devin got a full-time offer with Apple!

  • Mostly Pictures

  • A head on a washcloth?

    Is that what you were thinking, too?  That’s what my sis Cari-Ann said Katelyn looks like in some of her pictures.  I guess I shouldn’t be surprised when it comes to a 6 pound 3 ounce disproportion bug that we love oh so much. Being the nicknaming family that we are I thought I’d share…

  • Here she is!

      Katelyn Eliska Collier   Born October 10, 2009 at 4:22 AM 6 lbs, 3 oz 18.5 inches   And some more adorable pictures of her in the take-home outfit that Devin bought for her. These were taken after we got home from the hospital on Tuesday the 13th.   And this is her snuggling…
