tinkled pink!

BREAKING NEWS: Big Brother Hamilton has named his baby sister "Meatball." Gifts from our friends, Nah-uh-wee, Sock, and WizBiss (The Graesers), reinforced his decision. . .

How fitting a name for such a dainty, girly girl nursery! Enjoy photos of the surprise I came home to today - a completed nursery for Little Miss Helene Davis! I am so impressed by the tag team effort, compliments of my mom (YaYa) and Justin.
