The New Girl

Five months ago, we brought home this awesome person. She's gorgeous. Her smile makes me remember why I do this thing. God has used her to bring so much into this family. We are definitely experiencing growing pains. More on that later.


Things to remember...

• Mollie makes the sweetest sounds.
• She looks at Heidi with wonder and amazement.
• She loves to cuddle and be held A LOT, which is such a beautiful thing and a stressful thing all at once. Then, holding her makes the stressful part easier.
• She recognizes everyone in her family now, and tries to get their attention by batting her hands and feet around.
• Mollie likes to sleep on her tummy since she figured out how to roll over from her back about a month ago.
• Mollie still does not do well with cow milk protein. I have been trying to stay off dairy for almost two months now.
• Heidi and Christopher love their baby sister and take good care of her, Christopher can do just about everything for her and Heidi likes to keep her company when she is swinging.

Just a few days ago, I made a lovie for Mol-Mol!

It started with this little organic goodie we like to call "'Mater"

And I added a blankie from this dress from my singin' days

I must say, she loves it.
