It was so nice to see the girls playing so well together recently. Magdalene and Philomena set up a tea party. It's exciting to see the girls having fun together!
Watching our girls reminds me of all the fun times I had with my sisters growing up. Thank you Mom and Pai for giving us the gift of.....friendship!
Even my other sister joined us that lovely Sunday evening in opening a special gift for Theodore. He received a giant diaper bundle of Honest diapers and products. It was so cute! Thank you sisters!
Bear had some special time with the girls during her stay. She was their sleeping buddy!
We had a special countdown of hearts on our wall before Theodore arrived (just in case you're wondering why we have so many hearts on our wall). We have cute messages written on them from us to the baby.
"Hello everyone. Remember that the feast of St. Patrick is on Tuesday."
The girls have had their ups and downs sleeping together, but overall, I think it's going better than I thought. What a special moment between the two sisters.
We even fit in some adjustments with our favorite chiro, Dr. Valarie!
It was Theodore's first adjustment!
We were totally intending in buying a baptism cake, but it just never worked out this time.
Our little Teddy dislikes bath with a passion. I would say he is the most sensitive to touch, temperature, and such than the others were at this point. He is definitely not fond of his pacifier. He spits it out. I don't blame him. I was never a pacifier baby either....just a thumb sucker for an insane amount of years.
When Magdalene holds him, she does not feel comfortable when he starts to cry. She keeps trying to put the pacifier back in his mouth. Tobias seems to not be affected by his cries. He just smiles and is happy to hold him. haha! Interesting. Philomena likes to say, "Can I hold it? Can I hold it?" We correct her on the "it" part so she doesn't treat him like a baby doll. She loves to hold him though. We place a pillow on their laps, and he is comfortable and safe. It's such a joy to watch their smiles!
Look who has new sneakers! Daddy thought it was time for Philomena to have some shoes besides her boots.
Didn't Jordan do a good job picking out some shoes! She loves them!
She said, "Tobias, look. Sissy, look." Mena wanted their approval.
We are adjusting and forming new routines as a family of six now. We definitely miss all the extra help from Bear! Tomorrow morning we are going to do a trial run of what a work week would look like to see how it goes. Pray for us! :)
