Happy 1/2 year birthday my sweet little bug! I love how much more curious you are becoming! I love how happy you are and I love how you crinkle your cute little nose when you smile and giggle. You haven't starting crawling yet but can definitely make your way around the room, especially when it's a toy you're after. You love your brothers more than ever and are so amused by them. They are amazing at keeping you entertained and helping me out when I need something. You are really enjoying your solid foods...avocado, sweet potato, banana and squash thus far. I am excited to try more new foods with you and I have enjoyed making all of your food, just as I did with your big brothers. You are able to sit in a high chair at restaurants now. So fun! I am really enjoying this stage of your life but I do wish life would slow down just a bit.

Mother's Day 2014

There is never a dull moment being a momma to my 3 wonderful babies! They are so full of life, energy and curiosity. I love watching them grow and learn. I am blessed to get to be their momma.

My sweet, smart and funny little girl, you make me smile, even if you are a terrible sleeper. This month was filled with many fun milestones. Even though you won't remember, you got to see snow for the first time. Turns out you are a good little traveler, too. You did well on your first airplane ride, even if it was a short flight. Your bottom two teeth came in, one just after you turned 4 months and the other at 4 1/2 months. You started to sit up unassisted for a few seconds at 4 1/2 months but now, at about 5 1/2 months, are able to sit up completely on your own. You are starting to get into a crawl position although you haven't figured out how to crawl just yet. You love to be the center of attention and voice your disapproval when we leave you alone in your room to play. You are able to work to get a toy that is out of reach and object when a toy is taken away. You like when I play peek-a-boo with you. You love to study your tiny little hands and are mesmerized by the world around you. At your last pediatrician appointment, the doctor said you were very 'purposeful.' I think this word describes you perfectly.
