Cooking in Style

Madelynne loves to play dress up.  You will usually find her in a princess dress, heels and a ton of jewelry, but today she wanted to be someone different.  She has this amazing imagination and decided that she was going to cook in the kitchen.  She put on her apron and was making Daddy and Mommy some lunch.

What can you discover at the Discovery Museum!

 Madelynne's preschool class went to the Discovery Museum for a field trip!  The kids had a lot of fun discovering new things and playing together.

After 4 weeks and 4 days, Miss C finally lost her umbilical chord!  It was time for a REAL BATH!  We got everything ready and gave her a nice bath in our bathtub.  

Getting undressed!

Getting ready

She didn't like it

Not a fan of getting her hair washed

All done - Let's dry her up!

Much better - all warm!

Check out my beautiful smile!

We were very pleased with Miss C's first bath!

Introducing Miss Charlotte to our family!

We took Charlotte home to Pittsburgh to meet the family!  We left Virginia right after Madelynne was done with school on Friday.  Charlotte slept the entire trip up to Pittsburgh.  She was a GREAT little traveler!  Madelynne did great, as always!  On Saturday, everyone gathered at my parents house.  We enjoyed some great food and everyone snuggled the newest addition.  We are sooo blessed to have such a loving family!  They sure did spoil both girls!!!!  (I am waiting more picture!)

Our First Photo Shoot!!!

We took the girls for their first photo shoot together.  We were very surprised by how well Charlotte did.  Madelynne loved getting her picture taken with her little sister.  Here are some of our favorites!

Growing with my Frog!!! (1 Month)

 Mommy and Daddy can't believe that Charlotte is ONE month old today.  She is a great baby.  Mommy and Daddy have learned her routine and cries by now.  She is such a snuggler and loves to sleep on Mommy's chest.  Madelynne loves her little sister.  She constantly wants to kiss her!!  Charlotte saw the doctor at 5 weeks because she was sick.  She weighted 9 pounds and 8 ounces.

Watch Miss C grow with her frog

We wonder how long it will take for Charlotte to be taller than this frog!

Miss C am borrowing my frog from Madelynne.  Thanks Aunt Sara for this wonderful friend!
