Happy Birthday (Uncle) Jamie!!!

I just wanted to wish my brother, Jamie, a

very

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

today!

We hope you had a great day!!!

You have always been a terrific brother,

and you are such a wonderful (first time) uncle.

It is pretty obvious that your sweet little niece

loves you very much too!

It's funny...

you are feeding her in almost every picture

I have of the two of you:)...

Up in the Space Needle when you came to Washington the first time...

April 2007 ~ right around your birthday!!!

At Rachel's Baby Shower last May...

the first time you met your sweet niece...she couldn't take her eyes off you...

May 17, 2008 ~ Rachel almost 2 months old

I love this one with the way she is looking up at you...

memorizing you...

getting to know you...

so sweet...

At your house when we came to visit last June...

getting a little baby attitude or "baby-tude" as Mommy calls it:)

Rachel ~ 3 months old

What did you do to make her stick her tongue out at you?!

In Ohio during our visit in February...Rachel looks very happy to see you!!!

Rachel ~ 10 1/2 months old

Yay!

Someone to carry the infant seat...she was starting to get heavy!!!
