Kara and Ashley

Kara is obsessed with Ashley. She wants to lay with her, help, bring pacis, give kisses, hold her head and hand, etc, etc.

 These are from May 24th, Ashley was just 9 days old.

Here are 2 pics of Emily and Kara in 2012 when Kara was 10 or so weeks old...

I just love to look back and compare.

Sister Kisses

I have been trying to get good pics of all 3 girls together. So on Father's Day, after church, I tried again.

Pretty adorable, huh?

Then Kara ran off...

and Ashley had had enough...

But Emily is still smiling!

5 Weeks Old

Here is Ashley at 5 weeks old. 

 She is 10 pounds, 2 ounces- a big girl!

This week has been a little more difficult and trying...Kara has been sick with a cold and Ashley has been extremely fussy and not sleeping well. So after a trip to the pediatrician, we are trying to rule out a cold or even some milk allergies. Poor baby is in pain that we can't identify. 

Pray for us- it has been a difficult week, for the kids and for us parents!

A visit with her BFF

We have some dear friends that came to visit us this week. We have made a lot of memories with this family, and it continued this week.

Natalie and Emily are BFF's and so we had a great time hanging out with them. 

 We love P too (Natalie's brother).

 And of course, Natalie loves baby Ashley!

And so does her Momma

Look Who's a Month Old!

Ashley Grace is a month old today. Wow, it has gone by so quickly.

 She loves to be held, sometimes sleeps in her swing, and loves to sleep on her tummy.

She is a great sleeper, wakes up just once or twice at night and usually just falls right back asleep.
