Her first bite!

Margaret had her first taste of solid food today!  We started with rice cereal, and she loved it!  Opposite reaction from the boys!  Oh, and they LOVED watching her try it out!  Look at that audience!

Bumbo!

First time sitting in the Bumbo, and she loved it!  She was a great lunch date! :)

First box packed!

We’re moving!  Ah!!  I can’t really think about leaving our sweet home right now!  It holds some of my favorite memories and moments, but I’m gonna take those with me!  Today, Jack helped me pack our first box-the nursery books!

Her first Easter

Alleluia! Christ is Risen!

The LORD is risen, indeed!  Alleluia!  Happy Easter!

Holy Week

Five Months Old!

Five months, sweet pea!  You have been the sweetest thing and such a blessing to add to our family!  Daddy and I still comment on how we can’t believe you’re a girl!  Such fun!You don’t have much hair right now, just like your brothers at this age, so no bows yet.  But, bonnets!  I’m loving all your bonnets!  Your hair is growing, so I know we’ll get to wear bows before too long.  But in the mean time, and even when you get hair!, we’ll be wearing these sweet, girly bonnets!We moved to size two diapers and you wear three to six and six month clothes.  You’re still tiny to us, and we love it!  You’re grabbing at toys and your paci and you’ve grabbed your toes a few times.  You don’t really know they’re yours, but it’s fun to see you grab them!  Your brothers entertain you all. the. time!  They dance for you, sing to you, bring you things…it’s so fun to see!  You’ve been enjoying your exersaucer. so when I put you in it, they come up to you and dance, or play with the toys on it, or just talk to you.  You’re a blessed little girl, Margaret!  Sam was sleeping during these pictures, otherwise he would’ve been all over you, too!You still eat every four-ish hours and we haven’t tried food just yet.  We’ve held food up to your mouth and you lick it and you haven’t made any sour faces.  You might be a really good eater!You’ve been sleeping through the night since you were five weeks, but the past few weeks, you’ve been waking in the middle of the night to eat.  Growth spurt?  Makes me a bit tired, but what sweet time with my girl!  You’ll grow up too fast, so I’m gonna snuggle you up as much as I can!You still love to be swaddled up.  Sometimes you get your arms out-so cute to find you that way!

I sure do love you, sweet pea!  You’re such a doll baby, and I could eat you right on up!  Clearly I say that a lot, because Jack says it now, too!  Ha!  Our family adores you, baby girl, and Jesus loves you even more!

Masters’ Sunday

Already?

We had Kindergarten Open House tonight.  Huh?!?!  Already?  I am not ready to have a Kindergartener!  Where did my baby go?!He did a great job walking around and seeing the campus, and his favorite part was playing soccer on the playground!  Take your sweet time getting here, August!!

The tulips-again!

Sam and I loved the tulips so much, we knew we had to bring Jack back to see them! I’m not sure why we haven’t been before this year!We even had a mini egg hunt!  I may have told them that the tulips were magic flowers and that if they took a few pictures for me, and we said the magic words, “Chirst is RISEN!”, we may find some eggs! :)  It worked!
