My Girl!

Our first meeting

New family of 3Katelyn Rose Pellegrino All 7lbs 14 oz of her! She came out with her eyes wide open! Very Observant!

Proud Papa! He was so excited it was the girl he'd been praying for. On mother's day, we dedicate Katelyn to the Lord. What was really special about it, Pastor Roger had asked a few people to pray about what the Lord would have them say to us about being parents and words for Katelyn's future. Some words that were said about Katelyn: She would have a great heritage of Faith just like Timothy did.
We are not to neglect her gifts.
She is truly called of God and already has a calling.
Her call might not be what parents want.
What He's called her to do, she will do
Generations will be affected by her
She has a voice for a generation.

There were some good words for parenting for us as well.
We are to be faithful to follow through with what He tells us to do regarding her. Our time goes quickly.
Interced for her daily
Don't dwell on the negatives, but dwell on the positive things she does. (This is important for me)
Wisdom & discernment are going to be our closest friends in raising her.
I'm going to have to be creative with her, because she is going to have creativity.

These words made for a special moment on Mother's day!

Oh she is so precious Amanda! And I think it's so sweet that Jason wanted a little girl. I hope that you are continuing to do well. Thanks for the pictures!

I just can't believe how great you look in the pictures!! So glowing and happy and fufilled looking- rather than looking like you had been dragged behind a truck for 6 hours like the rest of us!

Congrats on the baby. She is so adorable. Those little girls just steal your heart don't they?
You look great in those photos! I didn't let anyone take pictures of me after Bre was born.
