Presenting.....

OK I don't do this often.  I don't want to turn this blog into Grandmother's Brag Book.  But I have waited a month and I'm not going to wait any longer to share our Christmas Gift with you.

On December 25, 2013, Mary Alice Alligood arrived.  As you can see, she is perfect.  Just like her brother Jonathan.  I'm not stupid - if she weren't gorgeous, I would be able to recognize that fact.  But clearly she is.  Absolutely gorgeous.  Her aunt Mary says it's the name......

I had no idea the blessings I would experience to see my child become a mother and then to watch her in action. Treasures.  That's all I know to say.  Treasures.

Look very closely and you can see several adults wrapped around that tiny pinkie.

Oh, and please try and not be jealous when you see how perfectly adorable she is.  :)




This is her big brother .  He is also clearly perfect.  Just sayin......
