January Family Picture

My goal is to have one family picture a month.
Taken by our wonderful friend Cassandra Hamilton

New things for Ariella




I have been having fun showing Ariella new things! First up finger paint (the no mess way)



Emmaline Joy one month!

Emmaline is a joyful little newborn. I have enjoyed spending a lot of time snuggling with my little one.
At 18 days she weighed 7lbs 15 oz almost a ounce a day!


We have been working on her eat, awake and sleep cycle and she is taking to it like a pro!  At 5 weeks she has started sleeping 5 hour chunks at night and then going right back down and sleeping 3or 4 hours more! Her morning nap is really solid and she sleep the whole cycle! She has been finishing her afternoon nap in the swing.

She nurses really fast! She can be done in under 10 mintues with both sides. I have been pumping about once a day and can get up to 5 ounce on one side!






At 6 weeks we saw our midwifes for the last time (till my next pregnancy Lord willing) she weighed 9lbs 11ounces. I just moved her up to 3 month clothes (it such a bitter sweet thing).


Emmaline loves giving smiles and is starting to coo and laugh! She loves Mr. sunshine (her play mat) like Ariella did.

Working on tummy time and taking good afternoon naps!

Her smile brings people so much joy!

Ariella Anne

Looking forward to sharing about my girls! My wonderful husband and our marriage. I don't want to forget where we have come from or what wonderful girls I have. I write because i want to remember not because I'm good at it. Punctuation and spelling don't come easy for me BUT I'm not going to let that hold me back from bragging about my family!

Ariella Anne is 2 years old and changing by the day!
Favorite things:
Doggie and little doggie
Donut man (thump thump Goliath)
Elmo
Reading books (twinkle twinkle little star)
Coloring

Learning:
She knows most of her ABC's and can recognize about half of the capitols letters
Can count 1-10
Most of her basic colors

She eats pretty well loves breakfast oatmeal is her favorite morning food. Bananas and yogurt are a close second. Lunch and dinner are always a much smaller meal then breakfast.



She goes potty most of the time on the toilet but is still in diapers for nap and night time.

She has always been a great sleeper! She will still sleep 12 or 13 hours a night and take a 2 hour plus nap.
She is in size 2T clothes and size 5-6 shoes

I love how she says yes momma
Gives kisses to Emma
Watching her run
Listening to her sing




 Thank you Uncle Philip for taking her 2 year old pictures!
