There is another new baby in the house. In May, Ruthie adopted a baby girl, and Rachel did the same this past week.
We made the trip to Hartville Collectibles where the babies were waiting in the nursery. Rachel knew the baby girl she wanted right away – love at first sight! She had spent a lot of time on the internet carefully choosing the perfect name. And here she is…
Trinity Grace
5 lbs, reddish hair, brown eyes
Here is Rachel with her new daughter.
And all of our girls and the two baby cousins – Trinity and Maggie!
Rachel says, “It was so fun! I was very excited. I got to put baby powder on her so that she smells like a real baby. At home, I bought clothes for her, and Mommy gave me a few hats and outfits. I am so glad I got a baby!”

Welcome to the family, Trinity Grace. Now Pappy and I have two great-granddaughters, Trinity and Maggie. Rachel, from the picture you can tell you are very proud of Trinity, and yours sisters are also. Girls, it was so nice of you to give Rachel a baby shower. It proves your love for each other very much.
