5 Months of Minka


Someone got earrings!!! Following in her sister's foot steps, she got her ears pierced after her 4 month shots! She started sitting up in her Bumbo and her head control has gotten so much better. I cannot stop kissing her and her cheeks have filled to an amazing squishy consistency. The giggles have begun and they are the loudest for you know who, Noelle!! Baby giggles really are my favorite thing ever! Her two fingers are her favorite thing and teething rings are now a thing. We left her for a whole week while we took her big sisters on a cruise and she was amazing. She took the bottle great up until about day 6 and then she almost starved. J/K but she was definitely over it and wanting to nurse.

Noelle's 1st Spring Break


If you are wondering what's happening around here, yep, it's me, just trying to kick this blog back off with catching up on ALL THE THINGS since I've been gone. So now I am posting Noelle's first real Spring Break back in March! We wanted to do something but knew it wouldn't be a big trip because we were headed for a cruise soon. So we decided to head up to South Dakota which was only a 6 hour drive from Denver. We figured we had to see Mount Rushmore sense we lived this close. Never would we ever be moving closer! First road trip as a family of 5!!

4 Months of Minka


Talking to or telling off her sisters, either way, the chatter is going down. She is a big growler and is tolerating the bottle much better than month 3. She is not sleeping through the night and still waking 2-3 times a night to feed. We thought by this point we'd be moving her into her room. The joke was totally on us!

3 Months of Minka

Minka came alive during month 3. Recognizing her hands and eating her fists, finding her voice and smiling big time for big sister. She would light up anytime Noelle talked to her. Now Lois is another story because Lord knows she is the most smothering. Minka is not old enough to box her but believe me you the love taps are coming!

2 Months of Minka

Ok, seriously guys, here we go!! I am so determined to get back into the blog game but I cannot go on without catching up on my Minka girl first. Month 2 for Minka was pretty rough! It involved a hospital stay which none of our girls have ever had. I also decided to stop edited all of the pictures on my blog. I want to remember my babies without filters and although some will be edited, most will not be.
