May Highlights

Hanging out on the big bed. Dedicating Allie at church. Making fashion statements when we play in the backyard. Discovering stickers. Wearing lots of bibs and stealing Momma's water bottle. Turning one month. Discovering the backyard. Hanging out on our tummy. Celebrating Nana's birthday. Swaddling. Silly fun with Daddy. Getting a new baby. Baby wearing. Donuts! Naps on the dining room table. Time with Daddy. Mother's Day as a momma to two girls! Holding Sissy. Peanut butter with a fork. Taking our shoes off while swinging. Learning about sidewalk chalk! Time at the park. Hanging out in the sling at the beach. The beach! Trying chicken enchiliadas. Toll House pie. Time outside while Momma grills dinner. Happy Meal. Wearing a Winnie-the-Pooh hat. Hanging out in the Snugli while grilling.

Flower Hunting.

Papa and Gracie had a great time exploring the backyard. She very quickly discovered the "flowers" in the grass. She wasn't strong enough to pull them out of the ground by herself. So, she would point at them and Papa would pick them. She brought some to Mama. What a treasure!

Allison at 1 month.

At one month, Allison: is a pretty good sleeper. She doesn't like sleeping in the bassinet as much as Gracie did. We are trying to keep her in her own bed more than in our bed. enjoys the bouncy seat. She hangs out on the dining room table to keep her out of reach of her big sister. is starting to notice her surroundings more each day. She loves to lay on the couch and stare up at the wall that has shelves on it. "talks" a little bit. is quite the grunter. She is a noisy sleeper! I don't think we could survive with her in our room if we didn't run a fan to block out the noise! is usually very content. She isn't really fussy unless she needs something. wears a mix of newborn and 0-3 month clothing. She is about to outgrow newborn size diapers. generally wakes up to eat twice during the night.
