Abby and Mary Ellen are inseparable.

Trying out the bumbo chair for the first time!

 Starting some new workouts! Time to get strong again. These post baby workouts are always the hardest. Ella is the best little motivator. By round three of those mountain climbers, she opted for some modified ABC push-ups that she learned in gym class. "Mommy, now march!"

Juliet is loving playtime on her activity mat.

She found her hands and loves holding them together in front of her or putting them in her mouth.

Rockin' around the clock and doing the locomotion on this afternoon in our living room. #sockhop

Filled with joy and dancing for Jesus! Her joyfulness inspires me. :)

Abby loves reading to her little sisters. 

When Abby sneaks away with my phone in the morning, I find this gem later that day.

 Running some errands with Daddy (and Mary Ellen), so they stopped for a quick lunch date.

Ella knows when her mommy needs a good, snuggly morning.

As Ella would say, "Uptown funky what. Uptown funky what!"

This guy.

Would you like a side of cheeks with those eyes? (16 weeks)

When you are four months old and your big sisters are in school, you tag along for date morning with mommy and daddy.

 

Happy Birthday Grammy!

A playdate with little friends

Every night Ella tells us she has prayer requestments and asks us to pray specifically for these two things:
1. That she would never grow up. She wants to stay little so she can be with us forever.
2. That she would no dreams. Not good dreams. NO dreams. She doesn't even want to mess around. She just wants to sleep.

Our sweet sweet girl! 

Juliet just started reaching for her toys and holding them. Her concentrating face is the cutest!
