Brittany's Birthday!

Today is Brittany's Birthday so we all went out to breakfast and walked on the beach. Have I mentioned how blessed I am?? I thank God everyday for such a great family. I am really enjoying my summer so far and the end is no where in sight! Starting on Tuesday I will be working at a Student Leadership Conference that I have been interning for since January. I'll be doing that till Friday. Then on Monday I leave for High School camp as a counselor. The week after that I am going on a road trip with a few friends for 5 days. Then from there the family heads to Hawaii for ten days. When we get home the next day I go back to NYC for two weeks. It's going to be a crazy 6 weeks to say the least, but full of great friends and family. Now thats my plan for the next 6 weeks, but we will see what God has planed out for me. Stay tuned...

Pool Day

The weather in California is a bit different from Seattle. It was a whopping 82 degrees today so we spent the afternoon in the pool! Here are a few pictures!

Bouncing with Nana

She fell on her face... hahahaha

Last Full day In NYC

Today was a pretty mellow day. Reese and I went to a carnival down the street and then we played in a tent for the rest of the day. Here are a few pictures of our day.

Hanging out with baby Anna

I head back to California tomorrow night, I'll be there for 48 hours and then I am going to Seattle for two weeks. Its been so much fun hanging out in NYC and Washington D.C., but I am ready to head back to California!

See you again in August New York City!

Lady Liberty

We were total tourist today and I loved every minute of it!

My Dad, Mom, and I had never been to the Statue of Liberty or Ellis Island before so it was a must see for our trip. We spent most of our time touring around Ellis Island. It was really interesting to see what my great great grand parents had to go through just to get to America. It was also great to be able to experience it with my parents.

Here are a few pictures from our day.

Home Form The Hospital

Anna came home from the hospital today

Have I told you yet how awesome the next couple of days are going to be?? Tomorrow my parents and I are headed to see Lady Liberty, Alanna and Jared will be in NYC on monday, and Tuesday night I am headed back with them to Washington D.C. for a couple of days! YAY! for summer and not having to work!

Anna Pauline Holladay

I would now like to formally introduce Anna Pauline Holladay! She was named after both of my great grandmothers. Anna from my Mom's side and Pauline is from my Dad's side. We spent our day hang at the hospital. Reese and Anna were finally able to meet and they got along great! Every time Anna moved Reese started screaming with excitement! We then had a celebration dinner minus Brittany and Anna (they are still in the hospital till tomorrow morning). To top off another great day we had a beautiful walk home. Here are some pictures from our day.

Dont kill me for putting this up Britt

Introducing...

We are calling her the unnamed child. Yep thats right she still does not have a name. I am really hoping we will find out tomorrow.

Baby Holladay was born at 2:30 on May 26, 2011. She weighed in at 8 pounds 13 ounces and is 21 inches long. She looks like no one on Brittany or Ryan's side, BUT she does have my eyebrows. She is covered in hair from head to toe and everywhere in between. I'm in love :)

Brittany is doing really good. Labor ended up moving a lot faster than she had expected and was not able to get an epideral. OUCH! The baby was also had a posterior birth, which means instead of coming out face up she came out face down. This can cause a longer labor and more pain.OUCH! But now mommy and baby are doing great and are in the hospital resting!

Tomorrow Reesie gets to meet her sister!
