Hey your mom likes my name! You know when I was a kid the name Natalie was not very popular and it seems it has become more popular lately. Let us know how the dr appt goes today and how much the baby has grown.

The pictures look great. We finally got a computer that will stay “alive” long enough for us to get something done!
Is there a way to print out the pictures from this site? I’d like to have something to display. (Of course, I’m sure, Nalaina, that you would rather NOT have your pregnancy pictures displayed, but I think you look wonderful!)
And I agree with whoever said not to call the baby “annoying”. MY GRANDDAUGHTER is not annoying. I already love her to pieces and can’t wait to hold her in my arms. I sure hope she won’t find me annoying while I kiss all over her! I just don’t want her to ever feel she isn’t GREATLY LOVED.

I live in Okanogan and want to wish you guys the best of luck in the coming weeks! I expect a call and photos ASAP after the birth! I’m more interested in seeing Nalaina’s expressions than the baby’s! I happen to know a household looking for a new grandbaby if you are looking to settle her in your hometown! Miss ya- maw

Merry Christmas, Yall!
Congratulations on baby. “Shawna” is a good name doncha think? Thank you for the game and the dish. The girls played (started a game at least - they’re pretty scatterbrained today) earlier.
Would you email me you mom’s number? We’ve been trying to find it.
We’ve a package for yall but in typical McManus fashion, it hasn’t been mailed yet. =)
Merry Christmas Some More,
Shawn, Spring, Olivia, Portia, Lena the Dog, Sophie the Dog, Brutus the Dog, Susie the Cat, and Daisy the Cat

Finally able to look at your little site. Great photos! The last month is a LOOOOONG one, but the second your little girl pops out, all will be forgotten(uhem, at least from what I am told!). Love ya both!

hey Nalaina you look great. almost there. now is the real fun. really i woundn’t lie. hope you guys had a great christmas. thank you for the gifts. the girls love the games. Lynn is always a great name. hint hint (thats my middle name). lanie is a good name. It always fun to come up with the names. The middle names i choose for my kids were after their grandparents. the hard part was coming up with the first name to go with them. Trenton Merritt Kropf and Jordan Geessien Kropf. Hang in there. Hope all is going well and take care. God bless

Steve and Nalaina,
I have been checking your sight this week because the time is drawing so near. Everything will go fine. Remember, breath in your nose….out your mouth…in your nose…out your mouth…relax…concentrate…your little girl will be beautiful regardless what she looks like.
On a different note, we are having another boy!! I’m going to try the water birth, it has got to be more relaxing than laying on my back on what feels like a rock after while.
John and I were thinking you might like our help with some names like Gertrude, Edith, Minerva, Hilda, or Frances. Then again there is Grandma’s name…Florence Jane. Last names are really popular too, like Duncan or Bramhall. Wow! The choices are endless. I see why you’re having a hard time deciding. I’ll stop teasing now.
We are praying for you and hope to hear about a wonderful birth soon. Take care, and please update your stinkin information sight.
Love ya, Angie

So glad you emailed the web page, it was fun to look through and so glad Baby Harper is here. Nalaina, you are efficient, hardly anyone hits their actual due date. Good job!! Elizabeth and I were praying for you, (Paul was on a business trip last night) exactly at 10pm last night!
God’s blessing to you both, I know you will make AWESOME parents!
Holly Paul and Elizabeth

Admittedly, the name took some getting used to. I commend your creativity. I can’t wait to see her! I bet she’s a little baby doll. She’s about the same size Emma was when she was born. One ounce lighter and an inch shorter. As babies go, that’s pretty close. I’m going to need some pictures!!
Steve and Nalaina, I know you are going to be fantastic parents. It might not have been part of your plan to be parents so “soon,” but it was certainly part of God’s. What a blessing!
I love you both!

Hi Daddy Steve and Mommy Nalaina,
Wow! What a beautiful baby. You know I’m a tad partial to redheads. And as redheads go, she’s a beauty!
The pictures of the first bath are priceless. And don’t worry about sleeping. Sleep is highly overrated. What really matters is each minute you get to be with your child…and believe me, time will start to go really fast now that you’re parents. Can you believe it’s already been 4 days?
When Zaida’s a bit older Cassidy would love to babysit! Praying for your family!
Love,
The Western Family

Zaida is so cute! I can’t wait to meet her. I will give you the same advice one of my friends gave me when Elizabeth was first born, “Hold her as much as possible, because one day she will be walking and she will want to run around all the time.” If you guys need anything, or just someone to talk to, we are here for ya!

Greetings from Sunny Georgia! You guys once visited in my home (Nalaina, you sat on the piano stool, remember? ) So happy about your little bundle of joy. She will delight you with each new smile and gesture. About the time she is two, she’ll begin chatting (you know like most women) and she will be off and running with words. My little Kate who will be 2 in April (granddaughter) is trying to say anything you tell her to. So you have much to look forward to with Princess Zaida. Prayers are with you both! Love, Julie

Hey you three!
Keep the photos coming! Jealous that Uncle Aaron got to make the trip south. Can’t wait to make my trip down there, maybe I can get my girls down there this summer. Love Zaida’s name. I work with a gal named Zila. She has sisters named Zeila and Zaira! I think the picture with Zaida’s tongue sticking out is the cutest!
Mom said,
February 17th, 2007, 9:39 am
Hi Kids…Your family is so adorable…can this site be put on DVD at some point in the future, so you can give it to Zaida when she is grown up? I am so happy for you and proud of you…Thank you, Thank you for having this site so all of us who are far away can take a peek and feel closer to you…..God Bless and tons of Love, Mom

Congratulations on your new precious little girl. She is adorable. I enjoyed visiting your site and seeing all the pictures. You both look like very proud parents. Glad I got to see a picture of all three of you as we have never met Nalaina.
Once again congratulations and may the Lord richly bless you all.

Hey you guys, we haven’t seen any new pictures lately! How was Nalaina’s mom’s visit? I’m sure you have pictures…..is the little darling using up all your time, so that you can’t post them?
We love you. Wish we could be there to play with her some more.

Dear Zaida, You looked absolutely darling in your pumpkin outfit. Granny wishes she was there to watch you take those amazing first steps. What size shoes are you wearing now? I noticed you weren’t wearing any for your dedication…you little California hillbilly.

Hello! I hope everyone’s just peachy in California and you weren’t affected by those fires. I had a few things to tell you: 1) that I would really love your mom’s email address and phone number. You can send it to the email above. and 2) we had a baby September 14th. Evelyn Beatrice McManus. Poor Shawn is engulfed in estrogen soup. She’s a perfect mix between Portia and Olivia. Pics here We’re all peachy. Just getting ready for the big day tomorrow. And Zaida is a cutie button!

Hey, how are you? I think that summer is going to be a bit different from the other summers because it is still raining over here. I hope that you have a great summer over there. And I hope that Zaida has a great summer too. And that you can go a lot of places or whatever you guys like to do. Jordan

Nalaina,
finally, finally….I made it.
This is Sandra from Switzerland. I just visited “harpersnest” and couldn’t wait to write some lines. Wendy sent me the link a year ago…shame on me.
Zaida is a cute little lady and you and Steve look very happy. Marcel and I have two kids: Our daughter Salome turned two (26th of Nov, 06) and our son Julius is 6 months by tomorrow (20 th of June, 08). There’s nothing more wonderful than having kids…isn’t there?
We wish all of you a merry, merry christmas and a happy 2009.

Hi Nalaina, remember me? I was just surfing around a little, what I normally don`t do!!! Found your site. Congratulations to your wonderful daughter. Great to see pictures from all of you, recognized Wendy and Darrell … not Aaron though.. Turned 42 this year, it`s been 25 years since I stayed with you, how time goes by. Been married for almost 10 years and have a six year old son named Matti. He`s going to start school next summer. Working as grade school teacher. Hope you have a wonderful start into 2009 and please say “Hi” to Wendy and your brothers Sabine
