3 Months



Cole is 3 Months old! Wow!! I can't get over how fast it goes... faster with everyone! He is doing SO well. He is weighing in at 14 lbs and is happy as ever. He just started laughing last week (4/7) - so precious!! And, he is sleeping through the nights most nights. It depends when I put him down. If I put him down around 9 he usually sleeps till about 7 or 7:30, if I put him down earlier like 7:30 (some days, I can just see it in his eyes, that he is ready to call it a night) he wakes to eat about 5/5:30 - either way I will take a 10 hour stretch! He Rocks!

The girls are both doing very well. We have been able to enjoy the outside which has been great. The first thing Alyssa says sometimes when she wakes from her nap is, "I want to play outside". They play really well together for the most part which is awesome.

Well, I think that is all for now.

Well, we have been busy... as usual! March was very busy... we had company 3 out of the 4 weekends, and then one weekend we didn't have company from out of town, we had friends over two different nights for dinner and had sg on the other night... Whew!

We had Jeff's brother in town, then the weekend break (so to speak) and then Rob, Joie and Robbie came to visit. We had a great time with them, and Robbie made friends with our neighbors which was cool. We hope they make the trek here to MI more often!

After they left I had one and a half days until my parents arrived. I love having them here, and this time it felt like it went extremely fast (I think b/c they were here for longer last time, that it made it seem so much faster) The girls simply enjoy spending time with them. We are looking forward to May when we make our first trip back there since August!

We had a wonderful Easter weekend. Friday we went to the Marshmallow Drop and then went to Easter Service at the Ridge. Saturday we enjoyed the free breakfast at IKEA, and then we volunteered at the Ridge for two of the services. Sunday we had a lazy morning at home and the girls enjoyed their Easter baskets and then we had friends over for Easter Dinner and an Easter Egg Hunt.

I am back on Facebook - after my break for Lent, and have posted lots of pics on there so be sure to check them out.
