3 Months

Look who's 3 months old!
Annalie keeps getting bigger and cuter each day! She loves eating her hands, and has figured out how to suck her thumb. She also enjoys her play mat and watching Evelyn. She is a big smiler, and I've even gotten a few laughs out of her :)

Cousin on the Way!

This weekend we celebrated the upcoming arrival of Allison and Jeff's baby boy!



Annalie spent most of the shower here:

 But she eventually joined the fun

Evelyn enjoyed eating, playing with Aunt Amy's toys, and seeing her cousin Morgan





We are excited to have another baby joining the family soon!

Holiday Weekend

We had a very nice holiday weekend! We went to the local parade, and celebrated with friends. Evelyn went to her first big fireworks display. She enjoyed it, but all the excitement (and no nap) seemed to catch up with her. 

We visited Grandma Marilyn and Grandpa Wally, and Annalie was full of funny faces. 



Evelyn loved playing the piano, with Mickey, of course.


There was also an exciting game of red light, green light! Several exciting games, actually.

Stats & Smiles

The ladies had their 3 year and 2 month well checks last week. Here's how they measure up:

Evelyn
36.5 lbs (91st %ile)
39 in (90th %ile)

Annalie
11lbs 15oz (70th %ile)
22.5 in (56th %ile)

Evelyn enjoyed her checkup, and was pretty surprised to see the doctor use a hammer--that one isn't in her doctor kit. Annalie was enjoying things just fine until it was time for vaccinations...

Trying to get Princess/Super Hero to hold still for a picture is challenging, so here are our best shots!


Annalie, on the other hand, was extremely cooperative! She was full of smiles :)



This may not be a smile, but it sure makes me laugh!

Grove Fest

Between all the storms this weekend, we enjoyed an afternoon at the local festival. 

Fueling up at Egg Harbor before getting started

The merry go round! It went a lot faster than both Evelyn and I were expecting :)

And the berry go round--spinning strawberries

We even ran into a friend!

Two Months

Annalie is now two months old! 

She continues to be a pretty great baby :) She is starting to smile, although you wouldn't know it from these pictures. Annalie loves watching her big sister play, hanging out outside, and her pacifier! Her eyes are getting bluer, and her lovely head of hair is staying dark like her daddy's.

Party Time!

This weekend we celebrated Evelyn's birthday with our extended family. Annalie also made her big debut!




I was very proud of my Pinterest-inspired cake! 


Evelyn enjoyed it....
 ...but she also had to have a cupcake.

Evelyn got some great gifts: games, books, toys, beautiful dresses, and a magnificent pair of "stick shoes"


It was a beautiful day! Dry and cool :)


We had to recreate this shot: here is cousin Victoria with Annalie...
... and about 3 years ago with Evelyn!

Alexandra also wanted a turn :)

Thanks to all our family for coming out to celebrate with us!
