Hi! I'm TWO months!

Month two was a big one for little Miss Molly!

Lots of cooing and smiles

9 lbs. 6 oz. at her two month check.

Got her first vaccines

Had a little baby acne

Still has fuzzy fur on her ears :)

Walked to Kingma's with mom

Smiles on purpose at mom, dad, and most people who catch her right

Went to nursery

Visited Kalamazoo

Stretches her arms over her head

Was dedicated at church

Met all of her cousins and Aunt and Uncles

Slept 8 hours...once. Regularly sleeps 5 hours.

Went to her church shower and VanHorn family shower

Visited Washington DC

Still wearing NB diapers but has mostly moved into 3 month clothes.

Went through my old clothes and started wearing them

We seem to be settling in to life. She's nursing better, sleeping regularly and is in general very happy.

We are too!

Into the East

Go big or go home. Why shouldnt baby's first road trip be a BIG one? We packed up two vehicles and headed East for Washington DC! Everyone did really well, it was a great time!

Ginny did a lot of this on the ride and Moses found a gun (of course) at a stop.

Molly was a happy happy girl, I was too and relieved!

She got to meet all of her cousins! yay!

We had fun watching the kids in the activities they're involved with

Happy two months baby girl!

Meeting Marta

Hanging out with Ginny, sure to be forever friends!

Saturday morning soccer with Ellen; she scored four goals, routed the other team, and had no idea if they won or not! Oh to be six again!

Molly loved spending time with her cousins and Aunt Andrea and Uncle Nate

Saturday afternoon soccer for Rita and a little time with Clara and a little drama ;)

We found out how Lindsay finishes so many quilts, child labor! Poor Ginny!

Sam really loved to just sit and hold Molly. Marta was so cute and sweet, covering her and saying, 'Shhh! Baby's sleeping!'

Mom and Dad with all NINE grandkiddos

Happy 12th Birthday Grace. Seems hard to believe!

Sam turned out to be the Molly Whisperer. and by the end Rita finally figured out the difference between Molly and Virginia!

Ellen was in love heaven: Uncle Peter, Molly and discussions of Madge!

All the first baby girls :)

We had a really fun time, I'm so glad we went.

We've only just begun I'm sure!

Hello John Ball!

One of my clearest field trip memories is riding the camel at John Ball Zoo with Kari. So, it was fun and special to take Molly to the zoo for her first time with Kari and Arie!

 The whole cute gang :)

Good times but judging from the photos I'm not thinking this will be one of her clearest memories :)

Just hangin' around

This is a lot of what we do these days. She's so cute at it! :)

 On my own

With my friend

With my mom

And of course with my kitty :)

What have YOU been doing?!

Busy Baby Weekend

We've just come off a wonderfully busy weekend. We did so much and loved so much!

We kicked things off Thursday by spending time with cousins who had come to visit and share in the celebrations! Molls' cousins love her and she loves them. 

Then is was off to her church shower, and what a shower it was! So many people came to say they love her. It was overwhelming and wonderful, we are so thankful!

Friday we took things easy, enjoyed spending time with Aunt Andrea and Uncle Marv who came in for the weekend too!

Saturday we were back at it! This time being showered by my mom's side of the family. They used my baby things as decorations, so fun! 

Sunday was my first Mother's Day and it was definitely one I'll not soon forget. We had Miss Molly dedicated at church. Most of our family was able to be there and a few sweet friends too. After church everyone came back to our house for a delicious lunch. The weather was perfect and the company so nice!

Just love this little pea pod! :)

It was so nice to do all the things we did, thank you to all who celebrated with us!
