Celebrating Perfect Baby Andrew

Michael, Cathi, Andrew, Ken & Alicia
Yesterday Ken and I joined extended family members to celebrate the blessing of Ken's 5th grandchild, Andrew Michael Hatch.  His father, Michael Hatch, provided a beautiful blessing at the church and then following the service, we went to a celebration lunch at the Seattle Tennis Club organized by his proud mother, Alicia Hatch.  The celebration sugar cookies she placed at each place setting were actually not only charming, but delicious too.

Andrew is the perfect baby.  He is alert and bright-eyed and never fussed though he was passed around from one adoring person to another.  He has blue-grey eyes, though both of his handsome big brothers, Jackson and Spencer, have brown eyes.  It is probably still too early to tell whether his eyes will stay blue or not, but he is certainly beautiful.

Godmother, Betty Tong, brought Andrew a tiny, polished 24k gold bracelet that has the Chinese symbol for longevity on it and though I didn't see what was in it, good friend Patty Barrier brought a Porsche gift bag.  Maybe a gift certificate for a new Porsche when Andrew is sixteen years old??

Some of the other friends and Andrew fans at the celebration included paternal grandmother Marcia Ingham along with her husband, Kip, maternal grandparents, Jan & Jeff Jackson from Little Rock, Arkansas, Cheryl & Kevin Cooney, Mallory & Bradley King, Myrna & Gordon Conger, Chris Coburn and daughter, Lauren, and Andrea & James Roberts and their two sons, Aaron and Alex.
