We have late church so it seems like every Sunday we are waiting around to go! Then when the time actually comes we are somehow not ready!! :) Well, this last Sunday we had about 15 minutes before we needed to get loaded into the car so of course I had to get the camera out. I took about 30 pictures to get one cute one!!! Is it just me or does everyone have this problem...my girls will not look at the camera!!!!!
So Monte felt the need to give baby sister a nickname. I'm not sure if it will stick but its Mimi. I told him it is too close to Nini but he keeps calling her that and now the girls have started to as well. (I like to use nicknames for the girls on the blog so it works for now)
I still cannot believe that Mimi has dark hair. She looks similar to the girls in their baby pictures but is totally her own self with her long dark hair. She is a good baby and wakes up about every 3 hours to eat during the night.
Sister Scott (Nini's BFF) gave us this adorable outfit. Honestly-I've never bought a blue outfit/dress because, if my babies are not in pink, people always ask "oh is it a boy or girl"(well, they actually sometimes even ask when they're wearing PINK--hello!!)
I thought Mimi looked so cute in this outfit and I just couldn't stop taking her picture!
Today she is 5 weeks old :)
Nini and Iya still get up at 6:30 every morning. Monte and I have this unspoken deal of I take care of the baby and he gets up with the girls. He has been a big help getting up and putting on a movie, filling cups with milk, and changing a usually stinky diaper. Every night I go to bed planning on getting up with the girls in the morning, but by the time their wake up call comes around, I'm so tired from getting up in the middle of the night that I just cannot bring myself to get out of bed. Maybe someday it will happen-but probably not any day soon! :)
My friend/visiting teaching companion did a baby shower for me 2 weeks ago. There was lots of yummy food. My mom and sisters even came too! It was so fun and I got lots of diapers and cute things. Dana made this ADORABLE diaper wreath!
After the baby shower my Mom and I tried baby Mimi's dress on her. Aunt Judy made it for her. She is going to look so beautiful on her blessing day!
I LOVE that the weather is getting nicer so the girls can get out of the house to run around and play. One of the days they were outside I told them Daddy was going to be home and to watch for him-I looked out the window to check on them and saw them sitting there waiting--so cute!
Monte is holding sleeping Mimi and watching basketball right now (surprise, surprise!). She is usually up and wants to eat or be patted in the late evening. I got a nap today for the first time in weeks while the girls had "quiet time"....who knew Peter Pan was ONLY an hour long! :)
