Etta's Journal

Etta-
Your shadow picture on the swing is precious! What a shot. We loved your ponytail!

Etta- We love it when we check in and see your new pictures and videos. Each one has you doing something new and different and we love the big steps you are learning to take. By the time we see you again, you'll be zipping around so fast, we'll have to run to catch up with you. You are so adorable in your little jeans! Sending hugs and kisses from Panama.

You are lovely, and I am so happy to have met you and your family on Facebook.

Hi,Etta. Your mommy is AWESOME for taking so many pictures/videos and for writing everything down. It will mean so much to both of you as you keep getting older. We love watching you grow!!!

Etta, you are so cute enjoying the tissue paper, and it won't take you long to figure out how to push down on that boppy toy. Your videos are so precious and keep us happy.

I know we don't sign in often, but let it be known that we are watching and loving you grow. You are always in our prayers and best wishes, as are your mommy and daddy.

We love you very much, Uncle Stan and Aunt Beth.

Etta I am so PROUD of you and your crawling! You are so cute climbing and being an inch worm! I cant wait to see you next week! Hope you get to feeling better! I love you baby girl!

Hi Sweet Girl,

We just finished watching all your new videos and catching up with you via your new photos. It looks like all you girls are having fun in Atlanta. It is raining a lot today and we wanted to finish up our spring flower planting that we started yesterday. At least the new plant will get off to a good start with all the rainfall. Nana V is making chocolate peanut clusters and wishes you were here to help her stir the pot. -- Lots of love from all of us!

Hi Etta! It's Saturday, noonish, and a beautiful, although windy day in Panama City. Jeanne and I just checked out your snow photos. You look great in white! We loved, loved, your snow angel photo. I just want to kiss you on your neck! We love you Etta. Kiss your Mom and Dad for us. XOXOXOXO

I stopped by to say I love you so much. I hope you and Fluffy (and of course Mommy and Daddy) are having a great day.

Dear Sweet Etta, I had so much fun with you and your Mommy and Daddy yesterday; you are so cute and cuddly! You were so worn out after all that shopping and eating lunch at Cracker Barrel - I hope you got some rest on the way home. And, thank you Mommy Tiffany for bringing Etta to play with me. I love you all! GMM

I can't believe how CUTE you are! I talk about you all the time! You are so special to me and don't you forget! ;) I love you always sweet Etta!

I think about you everyday. I love your new glasses. I hope you enjoy you visit with Lito and Lita. Both Uncle T and I wish you a wonderful day. I miss you sweet yummy girl!

Etta, you are so precious glasses!!! I love you!

Etta- You are so adorable in both pigtails and glasses! We love looking at all your pictures, reading your journal and watching the videos. We are really getting excited about our visit and are looking foward to seeing how much you have grown. Love the Fluffy videos, the two of you should be in the movies! Hugs and kisses from Panama.

Hi Sweetie Girl,
We love all the new photos and your new carrier. But we especially love looking at your sweet, smiling face.! Be sweet to Fluffy she loves you s-o-o-o much, and tell Momma to get you a helmet. :0 I'm glad you had a great Valentine's Day. We got to spend the day with your aunts Deanne and Kimi in Destin. Your Great Nana and Aunts Tammie and Jeanne, cousin Nick and great-great cousin(or cousin twice removed)Millie and her husband Jim were there too. It was fun to visit with everyone. Great Nana even went for a long beach walk with us. Wish you had been with us. Miss you and your Momma and Daddy LOTS.

Happy Valentine's Day Lovebug!!!!!! I love you!!

Happy Valentine Day Etta! Hope you and your family have a fun day!

Hey Etta!
We really enjoyed watching your videos, esp. the ones with fluffy in them. Wyatt was laughing out loud saying "fluffy is funny" Can't wait to meet you and hang out and play.

All the Hamiltons

I agree - CUTE pigtails and the resemblance to Momma is getting more and more obvious - just look at those eyebrows and hair color in the second picture under Pensacola.

I CANT WAIT TO SEE Y'ALL!!!! Together again! WHOOOOOOOO!!! Besos

Happy New Year's eve eve! We miss you. It was great to see you and your Mom & Dad and share your first Christmakkah with you! It was fun holding you and snuggling you! While holding you, you sure did love standing up. Your legs are very strong missy!

Hey Lovebug!
I love your faces! You are so funny! Your pictures make my day! I cant wait to see you and your momma for your first Christmas! I love you

Sweet Etta,

I love you very very much! I think about you all the time and when I do I smile so big that I must look like I chipmunk. I am excited to have you experience the holidays in Headland. It's what dreams are made of. I can't wait to hold you and kiss you. I love you sweet girl!

Love the pictures! You are all so cute! Especially that little bundle of joy who is getting more and more personable with each day. She will be grabbing that camera one of these days and turning it on you, haha. Love you all very much and can hardly wait to see you next week.

My goodness, Etta, you are the sweetest baby ever! I feel like I already know you from your Grandma V's stories! Maybe one day we can officially meet.

Happy Six Month Birthday sweet girl!

Happy Turkey Day Etta and family!!

My sweet little honey bun. You look like you are having a blast on your vacation to Panama. It's nice to see you experiencing all of the places that your Mommy, Aunt Kimi and I have enjoyed together. It makes me feel so warm inside to see you playing with your Panama family. Ito looks as proud as a peacock! I love you so very much!

Love,
The coolest Aunt ever,
(okay, Kimi is cool too)
Aunt Deanne

Hi Little Honey,

Your great grandma and I just watched your latest videos and loved the belly kisses the best! Mommy sure does know how to make you giggle. Nana said to tell your granddad that he looks like he is keeping a good grip on you when he is holding you. She said to tell you too that she really likes it when you're squealing. It reminds her of your mommy when she was your age. We miss you and are glad you are having a good time in Panama. The earings are so cute...just precious, according to Nana.

Love you, Nana V & The Nana

Etta, you are the CUTEST baby ever!!!! I love you lovebug!

What wonderful pictures! Sweet Etta, you look like a little movie star, surrounded by doting loved ones. Keep having fun and enjoy it all. Love you! GMM

Etta May your are the cutest baby in the whole world!!! You are so adorable in your costumes too! Your smile makes my day! I can't wait til I see you again! Take care of your momma for me! i love you, lovebug!!!

Little Miss Etta,

You are such a cutie in your Halloween costumes. I love them both. You are so adorable as a Pea in the Pod! And in your little Ghost outfit!
We enjoy keeping up with all your progress and your special events.

Robert and I both enjoyed the slide show.

You are so lucky to have such wonderful parents.

Love you,
Aunt Peggy.

Hey Pea-Pod! What a wonderful Halloween costume. Leave it to your Mom and Dad to find the perfect one. Your ghost outfit was very cute too and reminded me of the time your mommy went out trick or treating in a ghost outfit. I'll try to find one of the photos for you!

This week coming up is a big week for you...your first plane ride and trip to Panama. Lito and Lita will be smothering you with kisses and giving you big hugs soon. I'll talk to you before you leave, but hope you enjoy the trip and get Mommy to take lots of photos.

Much love, Nana V

Happy Halloween! Sorry we didn't get to message you yesterday, but we had a busy day with family! A trip to Asheville sounds like fun!
