4 months!

Anna Claire "waves" to us all the time! Makes us laugh! It's adorable!

We stopped swaddling her because she was getting very rolly. It took about a week going cold turkey and she sleeps better than ever. On her side...a lot of times with her thumb or a few fingers in her mouth.

Her laugh just bursts out! It's the cutest! Every now and then it sounds similar to how Molly Caroline's did.

Size 1 diapers. 3 month clothing sometimes! 

Weighing in at 13.4! 30th percentile and that curve finally looks good! 60th in length! She is much longer than big sis.

Notices and watches her hands now!

She likes her paci when she's sleepy. But keeps her hands on her mouth!

Drooling. Blowing bubbles. 

She laughs with us!

I just love how her entire face breaks into a huge grin if she sees us!

She's not really gassy anymore-I'm still cautious with red sauce and anything spicy. I don't drink milk or have much dairy.

She celebrated her first St. Patrick's Day and Easter!

She went to Atlanta for the first time.

Oh, Anna Claire, you are just so lovable!  You love to be held and we love it too! But you're also content to just hang out and chill. You love resting on your side and your thumb! I never thought I'd have a thumb sucker! It's the sweetest thing! I just love kissing your face and legs all over...especially when you scrunch your legs up! You smile at your sister as soon as you see her and you laugh and chuckle with us all the time! Baby sister, you are perfect!

Here comes Peter Cottontail!

Our Easter baskets are ready! 

Anna Claire helped Molly Caroline stuff her eggs for school...with chocolate and stretchy bunnies!

Matt was the lucky one that got to go to MCs preschool hunt at the big oak. I was heartbroken to miss it, but because of a field trip I just couldn't swing it. Matt said she loved it and kept running up to him and her teachers saying "happy Easter" and "look at my eggs!"

This is how I found her this morning! Thankfully she is not a candy lover and as she would open every egg, she would say, "I don't like this!"

I just love Easter!

Kids Sale Finds!

You know I love children's clothes and a good deal!! I only sold a few things at the sale this year, but I sure found a ton of awesome brands for greet prices! My treasures were a shrimp and grits kids Christmas dress and a lilly dress!! 

Our babysitter, Mrs. Pam went with me the second day and bought each girl a dress!  That about made me cry it was so thoughtful! 

I'm so behind! Anna Claire is 3 months old!

Anna Claire laughed for the first time!

Anna Claire sleeps through the night! 

Is still swaddled! 

Anna Claire's weight check at 3 months was great! Finally! Hallelujah! 

She is still nursing, and takes 4 oz bottles at daycare. She does both well! 

She had her first ear infection in one ear. I'm so glad I took her to the Dr. She coughed a few times early one morning and they sounded funny. She never ran a temp or acted fussy. Out Ped said based on her lack of symptoms she would have never thought ear infection! Mama's instinct I guess.

She wears newborn and 0-3 month clothing. She's tiny but long!

Anna Claire! You are so content, beautiful, dainty, and sweet! When you cry, it's fierce and loud like a lion and that makes us laugh! You love to smile at us and your sister! You love to talk to us! You still love to be held too! You are so precious to us and we are so thankful to be your mommy and daddy! We love you sooo much!

St. Patrick's Day, Birthday Parties, and catching up!

Springtime fun! The weather in March has been great! We've spent so many evenings outside lately! 

My parents came to help watch the girls for two days while our babysitter had to be off. It was so much fun having them here! We went to dinner at Sweet Grass one night and my mom and I went shopping one afternoon. She got the girls matching spring outfits and coats off the clearance rack to put away for next winter. Foxy and Poppy surely spoiled our girls!

I also used the gift card that sweet Mrs. Jeannie and Chip surprised us with! I got Anna Claire the sweetest little ducky outfit with it!

We stopped swaddling Anna Claire because she was getting "rolly" and she rolls to her side to sleep every night.

Molly Caroline loves Caroline!

MC comes into our room some nights in the middle of the night lately and when I wake up I find her on the floor like this!

Easter outfits before St Patty's day!

Kind of liking tummy time these days!

HNH lucky scramble fun! Molly Caroline played with Mary Madison, Anna Claire hung out with JoyAnna, and Daddy played golf!

We had Karlynn's bday! All the seasons were together so it was sooo much fun!

Season babies!

The after party was the best part! All the adults hung out inside the bouncy house, with music! Hahaha

MC has been on a huge book kick lately and reads to AC all the time!

I attempted St. Patrick's pics! We missed the Dublin festivities this year, but will be there next year for sure!

I just have to laugh when I see this picture. Brooke and I mixed blue and yellow food coloring to make green toilet water because we were out of green!

Kindergarten kids lose their minds when the leprechaun comes. Thankfully he never messes up my room too much. ;)

Fun in Bremen at Harper's birthday party! 

Spring decor, a heart pine table, and sickness.

My house is mostly decorated for Easter, but there is a shamrock on my front door and a few Irish touches here and there. Molly Caroline decorated her own table and helped me set things out! I'm hoping she carries on my love for celebrating each holiday. 

It's no secret that Matt and I love heart pine! Matt built the girls a mini heart pine farmhouse table. MC was thrilled and declared her love for it immediately. It's new home is right off of our island.

And I had to laugh when I noticed the changing table...it had a flashlight on it. Our week was taken over by what we thought was strep, but turned out to be hand foot mouth disease. Yuck. The flashlight was for checking for new blisters! So thankful we are all well and don't seem to have spread it to anyone.
