I was originally doubtful that I would be able to attend my graduation, since Xaris' due date was the 14th and graduation the 16th. But, an early arrival meant that graduation ceremonies were possible!
Mom and Dad came up from Houston to celebrate with us. Dad hadn't met Xaris yet!!
Xaris with her Taita!
His hands are a LOT bigger than hers!
She didn't go to graduation--too many people in too small a space.
Thanks to Kaitlin for babysitting so we could all attend!
It was a really nice and fun ceremony, glad I could do it, and so glad that Ric, mom and dad were all up here for it! On facebook the other day, mom called it my double-whammy, a baby and a graduation to celebrate!
Outside the church...
Processing in...hood in hand!
So were these two!
Xaris missed out on her mama's graduation, but we did try to get some pictures with her afterwards. She's two weeks old today!
BIG yawn!
I guess not everyone's as excited as I was...
I still claimed a congratulatory cuddle.
I've had a building-monster headache most of the afternoon, so I fell asleep on the couch with the baby and Kung Fu Panda in the background...now I'm heading to bed to try to get rid of the rest of it!
Thanks Ricardo (daddy), Mom, (Grandmama) and Dad, (Taita) for celebrating with me!
