Milana's 1st Meal

Our baby girl is getting so big. As we expected, she wasn't sure about her first meal. However, she is now getting the hang of things and is eating more than I thought she would! She looks so grown up in her high chair...

More Marbella and Milana Memories for Monday...

I wonder if I could have come up with a few more 'M' words for the title of this posting. I've got to be brief, so here are three new albums of random pictures over the past two weeks.

Recent Photos

Enjoy some recent photos of Marbella and Milana. In the first album you'll see Marbella enjoying herself at the Library. They have a pretty interactive area for kids.






Below are some pictures from today, July 22nd. As you can see, Milana is growing fast, but still sleeps most of the day and thus rarely has her eyes open. Enjoy!

Marbella and Milana - July 10, 2008

Milana's First Trip to Chuck E. Cheese's

When you have an active toddler it's not too easy to keep the new baby wrapped up at home. Now that there is vacancy at the house, Daddy took some much needed time off. On Thursday we went to Chuck E. Cheese's. Marbella had fun, as always. Milana just snoozed the trip away.
I'm not sure Marbella had even left the house other than to attend a doctor visit in the first few months of life. With Milana it is a different story.


July 1 - 7, 2008

Enjoy various photos from the first week in July with the McGee family and Gamma.

A few photos with Grammy Green before she left. Grammy was such a big help. After Grammy left, Marbella decided it was time to put on her hat and Dora Crocs and then grab her puppy purse and a Medela breast pump bottle (hey why not?) and strut her stuff around the house.

Milana Hope Green - June 24th Photos

Mommy and Milana were discharged from the hospital at noon on Tuesday, June 24th. When we got home, Marbella was anxious to get her baby sister out of the car seat and show her the house and Milana's bedroom. Marbella was such a great girl in the car sitting next to Milana. Marbella is really loving being a big sis. She gives Milana hugs and kisses as much as she can. Karin is recovering nicely, not long after getting released from the hospital she was up and out with Daddy taking Marbella to get a haircut. Enjoy the pictures.

A true gift...

I snapped this photo today and couldn't resist sharing it with everyone. It was just too precious of a moment not too pass along. In the picture, Milana has hold of the pregnancy gift I gave Karin. It's called a Birthstone Bar and is made by Mindy Searcey. Mindy hand stamps each letter of each word in the metal. Karin's bar is inscribed with Marbella, 9-28-06, Milana, 6-20-08 and contains a sapphire and pearl birthstone.

All in a name

Maybe some of you didn't catch the subtle announcement in the post a few weeks ago, but we have decided on a name for the baby.

Milana Hope Green

Milana pronounced 'mee-LAH-nah' has a variety of meanings and origins. In English it means precious one; whereas, in Hawaiian it means, beloved, Czech it means gracious, from Milan in Italian, and in Spanish it means Miracle of the blessed virgin and light.

Hope is a family name from both sides of the family.

We have come to love this name for a variety of reasons. It was a name that Karin thought she made up, until we started to research on the Internet. The name has Italian roots, which represents the time Karin and I spent together in Rome right after we were engaged. You'll also notice the prounounciation simalarities to Marbella. Also, neither of the names are in the Social Security Administration Top 1000 Baby Names for the past 99 years.
