April 3 - Getting Big & Getting Excited

Baby No is getting so big!  She can hold her head up pretty good these days!

This is her excited face.  She was anticipating Daddy's jokes & games.  If you think you can tell she's excited by the look on her face, just wait until you see her hands excitedly waving around & her her little mouth make half scream/half giggle noises.  Daddy's are so much fun!

April 2 - Fishies & Laughs

I hardly slept at all last night due to this STUPID cough I have.  So, when the kids let me sleep, I totally took advantage.  I figured I'd be alerted if they needed me.  Well, I woke up an hour later not because I could hear loud & alerting noises, but because I heard silence.  And when I woke up, I found the kids had "been to the pretend pet store & picked up a couple of fish."

Nora laughs at me & I get proud.  That face!  Love.  I got her going pretty good tonight!  Even if I was in Mombie mode.  (See what I did there?  Mom+zombie=Mombie.)

April 1 - April Fool's

Andlie thought it was maybe the most hilarious thing in the world to go to preschool with only half of her hair curled & a 4th of July bow in it.  She also took pretend bugs with her to preschool.  She totally hammed up this holiday.  While she was painting, she said, "Mom, I need help," and when I went over there, she said, "Just kidding!  I don't need help!  I April Fool's pranked you!"  And then she called Grampa to tell him that it was her birthday!  April Fool's again!  And then she wore a lion mask when Dad got home and tricked him that she was a lion!  Pranked again!  She loved the holiday!


While she was out enjoying her pranking ways at preschool, me & Hazey played blocks!  (AKA build a giant tower & throw balls at it to knock it down.)  

March 31 - Tiny Thing

March 30 - Boys & Cars

This one goes the fastest!

Line 'em up!

Ready, set, go!

He's been LOVING his matchbox cars lately!

March 29 - Saturday

Andlie scored her first goal at her game this morning!

And Nora was super happy about it!  (Fine, this was way after the game.  But look at how cute her face looks when she's laughing!)

March 28 - 3 Months



2 Days Old, 6 Weeks Old, 3 Months Old

I don't think she could be any cuter even if she tried.  My goodness, she fills our hearts with love and happiness and joy and every other good thing in the world!  At 3 months, she is still in size 1 diapers (though they are getting very snug) and wearing size 3-6 month clothes.

She just moved in to her own room/own crib two nights ago.  She sleeps about 8 hours at a time at night!  She is a pretty good eater, but only if everything around her is exactly how she wants it to be.  She is really starting to discover & wonder about her hands & feet lately.  (See above pic.)  She laughed for the first time on March 8 and hasn't stopped since!  Her smile comes very easy.  Her laugh takes a bit more work, but it is totally worth it!  

We love you, baby NoNo!  More than words can say!
