2 Months!

Our little Agnes is 2 months old today!  She is growing and changing so quickly.  Just today, her eye lashes grew and curled up...it's so adorable!


I take a picture of the children in this chair each month of their first year.  So, here is her 2 month picture.  It's amazing how big she is getting already!


Big sister Lillian is such a good helper.  She's always ready to jump right in and do whatever I ask of her.


This is Benjamin at the doctor's office on Thursday...2 hours at the doctor's office in the tiny room...yeah, 2 hours! He has a double ear infection and pneumonia. He's on an antibiotic and nebulizer steroids around the clock.  He's starting to return to normal and is back to running everywhere he goes.  We're hoping that he really turns a corner here soon and we can begin weening him off of the steroids.


Madeline and Haley had their Living Stations of the Cross performances this week at our church.  That is Madeline next to Jesus as one of the Weeping Women of the 8th Station. It is such a powerful performance and is very moving.  I'm so thankful that our church works with the youth to do this each year. It is an only youth cast - amazing!


The weather has been warmer - nice enough to eat lunch out on the deck! Hooray for spring time!


As part of Girl Scouting Sunday last week, our American Heritage Girls brought the gifts up at each of the Masses.  They were so respectful and reverent. Well done ladies!


And a random Peter selfie that I found on my phone.  This turkey definitely makes my life interesting and fun!

God Bless!

Everyone Loves Agnes!

These past 6 weeks have FLOWN by...I know it's cliche, but where does the time go?  We are plugging right along over here, trying to find our new groove.  Agnes is growing bigger and bigger every day.  She's out of her newborn clothes already and into the 3 month outfits!  I'm just guessing that she's about 9 pounds right now.  We're still struggling with nursing. I spend a good chunk of my day pumping bottles so that I can feed them to her. She's also supplementing with formula. I'd say she's about 75% breastmilk and 25% formula.  According to the lactation consultant (who is amazing, by the way!), Agnes has insufficient suction to properly nurse at the breast.  I'm hoping that she'll outgrow that and as she gets bigger and stronger, become a better nurser along the way.  I guess time will tell on that one!

Now for a few photos of our little lamb!

Sporting a fancy new outfit from Grandma Pam - thanks grandma!

Godmother Molly got to hold her for a while at the Lenten mission at church last week.

Esther is always asking to hold her. Agnes really loves listening to Esther sing to her.

Where would we be without big sister Haley?! Madeline is extra busy with play rehearsals these days, so we're calling on Haley a bunch.  She is such a blessing to us!

And here's the proud papa!
That's all for now...Agnes is calling me!

God Bless!
