| JOLIE,
        APRIL 2002(Click on the picture to see a larger

      |  The first smile
 caught on film!
 |  These first 4 pictures were all taken on 4/11/02, Jolie's
      two month birthday.

    |  Cousin Nicolie gets to hold Jolie for the first time...
 |  ...with a little help from their Pop Pop.

      baby shower.

      |  The cake at the baby shower had first-day baby pictures
        of me, Bev and Jolie.
 |  No one would eat the part of the cake with
        my face on it.  My sister-in-laws who think they are funny added
        the tiny signs.
 |  Jolie's face lights up when she laughs.
 |  Apparently that was the funniest thing that Jolie has ever
      heard.
 |  So far though, Jolie hasn't figured out how to make
      laughing sounds.  When she laughs her mouth just opens like
      this and her eyes get really big.  Very funny.

 |  After holding Jolie at the shower 2 weeks ago, Nicole
      kept saying "I go see Jolie?  I hold her tight."  So
      Nicole came back again and got to hold her cousin a second time.
 |  |  This is my Aunt Mary holding Jolie at the baby
      shower.  You wouldn't know it by looking at her in this picture, but
      very sadly and tragically, Aunt Mary died of cancer less than 4 months
      later.
