April at One Month

I waited to do this post because our doctor appointment for April was moved to today, so she's technically 5 weeks....but that's okay!

April Hope is now 9 pounds, 3 ounces...exactly one pound heavier than her birth weight...and 22 inches long. (For those who are interested, Chloe was 9lbs. 4oz & 22in. at one month)



She started sleeping through the night (eating for the last time around 10:00pm and waking up between 6:30 and 7 am) on May 25th - her one month 'birthday'. Mom was a-okay with that! :)

April is a very content baby most of the time....Once she gets hungry, everyone knows it! She goes from quiet to very loud quickly!!


She is bringing us lots of joy ~ and Chloe is still loving "Eigh-tol" (the phonetic spelling of her version of "April"). We are thankful that the sisters are getting along!! We can't wait to see April continue to grow! :)

Wedding!

Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Martin! :) We attended Natalie and Dallas' wedding on Saturday and had a lovely time. We know both the bride and groom from college....and just happen to be great friends with the bride's parents as well (Hi Bill and Doreen!). Here is the new couple - Natalie looked beautiful, and Dallas looked pretty good too ;) Here I am with the bride - check out her BLUE shoes! No wedding is complete without a little dancing and singing....particularly to Livin on a Prayer....Steve, Jeff, and Kevin sang at the top of their lungs and performed an air guitar solo: even the bride joined in: We had a great time! I'm thinking of the honeymooners.....kind of wishing I was on a tropical island somewhere too! :)

Baby Pool

Want to guess when Baby #2 is going to arrive? Post a comment, or send me an email, with your guess and I'll add you in! As a review, here are the rules to the game (taken from Heather Deterding!): 1. Post your guess for the baby's arrival in the "comment" section. Be sure to specify both date and time of day -- either "am" or "pm". 2. Limit one guess per person, and only one entry per time slot-- no sharing! 3. Winner is determined based on time of birth. For example, if the baby is born on April 20th at 7 AM, a guess of "April 20th, AM" would be the winner. In the event that there is no entry for the correct arrival time, the next closest guess based on actual time of birth would win. 4. We will post entries on the Calendar above. Check prior entries before placing your guess! Dates not displayed on the calendar above are still up for grabs. 5. The winner will receive... bragging rights and a congratulatory post h
