She's 3 months and 11 days

...and I never wrote about her being 2 months.  So, let's just say, Catherine is great and we are busy around here!

Catherine's definitely come out of her shell in the last 2 months.  She's smiling, babbling, reaching for things, sucking her thumb, pulling 10-12 hours straight at night, nursing quickly, cuddling frequently, and pretty much just being a ridiculously pleasant little addition to our family.  I am really enjoying watching her little personality bloom, but pretty sad to see her leaving her newborn-self behind.  I know I won't get to enjoy the baby stretches much longer--you know, when you pick them up and they stick their little butts out and arch their backs?  I think it's the cutest thing EVER!

Ok, and now for the photo dump:

So happy in the morning!

Trying on dresses for Aunt Faith's wedding

A little crazy to see this out your front window!

We got a new light fixture.  Catherine noticed.

Just doing a little grilling.

First plane ride for Aunt Faith's wedding!

And this is what she did through every wedding event.

Faith's Married!!  Welcome to the family, David!

Catherine met all her cousins in Charleston--here is Eli, Aunt Annie, Aunt Mary, and Bridget

Walking around charming Charleston

It was great seeing family!

The big brothers were happy to have Catherine back home.

This cuddle time is why everything is dusty.  Cuddles always win over cleaning.

Catherine's getting better at tummy time.

But, has also figured out how to get out of the work.

Matthew: I wear dada shoes!

So smiley!

Fell asleep during tummy time?!!? 

Hi!


Show off

I love baby cuddles.

The Bernacki family visited for Memorial day weekend.

Their daughter left a hair clip behind.
