One month old

img_2056img_2212img_2399img_2532img_2584It’s hard to believe that our sweet Lindsey has been with us for a month now! She is such a wonderful gift to our family. Natalie and Amy love to hug and kiss her and hold her. They also enjoy being my little helpers. Natalie takes pride in throwing away all the dirty diapers and Amy enjoys helping at bath time.

Lindsey has seemed to fit right into our family life. She has even allowed Nate and I to continue our December tradition of watching all three extended versions of the Lord of the Rings trilogy…not all in one night! I usually fall asleep by 9:30 so we watch them in short segments. :) She has been great about being carted all over town taking her older sisters to their activities…although she doesn’t like the carseat. She is a wonderful sleeper…usually allowing Mommy at least one 6 hour block of sleep at night.  She has also stayed healthy the past 2 weeks while Natalie had Strep throat, Amy had the stomach flu, and Amy, Mommy, and Daddy had colds. My poor winter babies are introduced to all sorts of illness at a young age.

We look forward to celebrating our first Christmas with Lindsey as a family of five. Hope you enjoy these pictures taken the past few weeks. The last one of her in the chair is taken today…I take pictures of each girl in that chair every month until they are one year old. It is neat to see how much they change and grow.
