So my friends and family can be up on life here in GR

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!

New terminology

Since Miss Molly arrived I've picked up a few new words and phrases.

Binks, always need to have a binks nearby.

This is called 'taking a relaxer'

Big baby stretching! and listening to her iPodie.

More new words to come I'm sure!

What we've been up to

We've been up to a whole lot of important nothing. Most days are spent right here at home, sometimes we get out though.

In house parties :)

 Molls went to her first girls lunch.

Resting with dad

Neighborhood walk on Summer-like days

Visits to Grammy and Granpy's. When he knows Molly's there he's able to pack up for the day ;)

Saying our prayers before nap time?

It's a good nothingness. I know we're accomplishing a lot in it! :)
