3 Month Photo Shoot

Oh my! My little GG shows off her baby chubs and big baby head. She seemed to enjoy all the poses and the bright lights. Such a silly little girl...

Greta's Baptism

It was a a beautiful day for Greta's baptism. We had a small, but very special service on Saturday morning, followed by some seriously good food and sunshine at my parents'. Greta wore a Christening gown Oma made for me when I was baptized. Lucy wore it as well 2 years ago... I had never seen any pictures of me or Lucy in the cap... it quickly came off Greta! Poor thing looked like a pilgrim.

God Bless you, Greta!

A Freund Easter

We had a beautiful Easter Sunday and hope everyone else did, too. Lucy wasn't very happy that she had to wear a dress. She's used to her sweatpants every day. I had to convince her it was just a "long shirt" and that the Easter Bunny only visits girls in dresses. Eventually, it worked.

Greta wasn't crying about her dress... I dont think. It was a bit snug...chubby girl can't even fit into a size 6 mo dress at 10 weeks old!!! I'm not so sure why she was crying, actually. It made for a classic picture though!


This one just made me laugh.

Griggy meets Greta while having Easter dinner at Christy and Andy's place.


And of course we had an Easter egg hunt. Apparently, I made it too easy for Lucy, cause she pretended she didn't see some of them to make it more fun for herself.


And the Easter Bunny did come! Lucy was able to draw with the bunny for a little while.

Baby Chubbs



Greta had her 8 week check up ( at 6.5 weeks old) - and my doctor just laughed at her. She couldn't believe her size. Greta is at 95-97 % for height, and off the charts for weight! Over 13 pounds. She's a really chubby baby!!

She's a strong little one, too. She showed off for her doctor at the appointment. She held her head way high for a long time while on her belly; and then she tried to do some crawling tricks; and then she tried to roll off the table! The doctor just stared all wide eyed and asked Greta, "Do you know how old you are?"




Lucy is trying to be a really good big sister. She likes to put toys on Greta's belly or head, and give Greta her "fossil" - Lucy's word for pacifier. I have no idea where she got that.
