Vacation!

Here are the pictures from our vacation to Duluth, Minnesota! We spent a week up there in a cabin on Lake Superior with Nathan's mom and brother and my mom and dad. Enjoy!

Trying something new

We have decided to switch to cloth diapers. It is a big switch, but will save us money in the end. Here are the few we have so far. More are on the way and hopefully in about a month or two we will be completely using cloth diapers only!

 Wow-the diapers look bigger than her!I swear they aren't!

 First one!So cute!

3 years

Today is our 3 year anniversary.
"It was harder than we dreamed,but I believe thats what the promise is for"

A wedding, a first mass, and 3 months!

What a weekend! Abigail went to her first wedding. Our friends Dave and Alexandra from FOCUS got married in Peoria. It was a great celebration and we got to see a lot of old FOCUS friends. Then on Pentecost Sunday we got to attend Father Dan Gifford's first mass. This was such an incredible mass! Lots of great music, latin, and tons of priests and religious sisters. I have known Father Gifford from when we were in high school. It is so exciting to start seeing people my age ordained to the priesthood. At the end of the busy weekend, Abigail tuned 3 months old! Enjoy the pictures!

3 months!

Look at all that hair!

Big Yawn!

Cutest baby ever!

Abigail now weighs 10 lbs. 12 oz. She can roll over and roll herself back! Her hair keeps growing and I have no idea how to take care of it! She is smiling more and coming into her own personality. We just switched her from her bassinet into the crib. It has been a rough transition b/c she is now rolling all over the place and wakes herself up constantly. Other than that, no new news! Just a happy baby!

Where did May go?

May is almost over and I realized I haven't posted any pictures of Abigail yet! Here are the latest!Also- Abigail is now weighing 10 lb. 4 oz. according to the scale last week. Her hair keeps growing and it seems her eyes will be blue. She is a great sleeper (I recommend the book, Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child- it totally changed our lives for the better with her sleeping!) She is smiling more and overall just the most pleasant baby to be around! We can't believe she is almost 3 months old! Enjoy the pictures!

This one just makes me laugh! She does not like getting in her car seat!

But once she is strapped in, she likes it!
