My New Quilt

Gramma made this quilt for me and brought it last weekend when I got baptized. Last night I layed on it and talked with Mommy for a long time. I had a lot to talk about! I made it through my first week at Ruth's house and have been closely watching all of the kids there. I also told Mommy that when Riley cries (he's Ruth's grandson and is 2 months older than me) it makes me sad so I join him and cry too. I also told Mommy how excited I am to sleep in tomorrow morning!

A Better Finger!

Auntie came with Mommy to pick me up from Ruth's house today. Auntie is going to drop me off Wednesday morning because Mommy has a meeting at school really early, so she needed to see how to get to Ruth's. After they picked me up, we went to Auntie's house. I was sitting on her lap watching her gigantic TV and found out that her fingers are much bigger and taste better than mine! I held onto her finger really tight and kept sucking on it. When she pulled it out of my mouth, I let her know who was boss and put it right back in!

It's Been a Blur!!!

The last couple weeks have been a blur! I went back to work on January 25th. That week Ava was with my mom on Monday, my sister on Friday, and Chris took the other days off. The first week back was horrible at best! I often asked why I decided to go back. I told Ava I would be happy to stay home with her until September. Ava started going to Ruth's house (the sitter) on the 1st of this month. The first drop off was rough, but we all seem to be adjusting well now. We've been extremely busy and are hoping to catch a breath this weekend!

Last Friday, I spent the day with Auntie at her house while Mommy and Daddy worked. Auntie's huge new couch got delivered! Mommy and I snuggled on it for awhile after she got home from work. We had lounged and had pizza with Nonna, Papa and Auntie. Mommy and I watched a movie with them while Daddy went to Illinois to pick up Uncle Josh.

My Cousins!

I got to meet my cousins Lauren and Parker on Saturday morning! Lauren really liked to hold me.

Hangin' By the Pool

Saturday morning Mommy, Daddy, Josh and I went to the hotel to meet Aunt Chel, Uncle Brandon, Lauren, and Parker. Mommy and I lounged by the pool. I didn't really care for putting my toes into the pool, but the hot tub felt good on them!

I had fun watching Lauren and Parker splash in the pool. I think I'll join them next time!

Baptism

Saturday night Fr. Don baptized me at St. Anne. He was the same priest that married Mommy and Daddy. I got to wear a pretty party dress for my baptism! Papa, Mommy, and Auntie also got baptized in the dress.

Mommy and Daddy told me I was really good and slept through all the water being poured on my head.
Josh and Auntie are my godparents.

Can you tell I was really hungry when we were trying to take these pictures?
