At the request of several grandparents, we finally got all the Baker cousins together for a picture. The last time we did that, Maya, Mathew, and Amy weren't born yet. This picture was taken in front of the Baha'i Center in Urbana at Heidi and David's going away potluck.
Back 'row': Nadine (holding Mathew), Georgia, Devyn, Mariah
Front 'row': Amy, Maya
Here's that beloved picture taken on the farm in 2001.
Georgia, Mariah, Nadine (holding Devyn)
I'm lovin' the excitement on Maya's face in that top picture! :)

Georgia's ballet class looks like lots of fun. She is turning into such a performer all of the sudden. Maya always looks like she's just happy to be here.
Here's an update: Lucy's going to start school at Crystal Lake Montessori! I'm so excited! This is such a big change. Call me soooon!

Posted by: Billy at August 11, 2004 01:22 AMThe phrase that comes to mind in looking at this whole sequence of recent pictures is "an embarrassment of riches". You are all so very blessed to have each other. And yay for Grandma Felty's antics - they produced great results.
