Caroline- 26 Weeks






April 13th- 19th

We celebrated Caroline's first Easter. Those photos are on a separate post.

This week Caroline FINALLY started to roll from front to back. She needs to get the right momentum, and it might have been accidental at first, but she has since mastered it, and can roll 4-5 feet to get to something that she wants. Which is perfect, because the last couple weeks she has started to become interested in toys and grabbing things.

We are really working to help Caroline sit up on her own. She will sit in the BUMBO chair for about 15-20 minutes, which we have been slowly working up to. She will also sit in her

We continue to attempt more solid food, now that she is feeling better. We have added oatmeal (since she hated rice), carrots, peas and peaches. I think that brings us through all the firs foods. Next week, I am going to attempt apples once more.

With all of these things, she is proving that she is working on her own time frame. She is taking longer to do things then her brothers, but she was also cooked 2-3 weeks less, and she is a lady. She might also just be taking her sweet time because she knows she is our last kiddo to go through the "firsts" so she is giving us an extended wait period.











Easter! Caroline actually threw up in the super cute bunny dress, so I am going to take family Easter photos later with the dress on! This is the "back-up" dress from her Baptism.

Easter 2017

HE IS RISEN! 
I am the Resurrection and the Life. The one who believes in Me will live...

We celebrated our resurrected Savior on Easter Sunday as a family of 5. This is the first time we have only had one place to be, since we are so far away from family. It was actually peaceful.

We had planned to be at the earlier church service, but Caroline threw up all over her Easter bunny dress. So, we turned around, changed and opened our baskets.


































 

At church, they had a photo booth- HOW GREAT!! The boys each did a crazy face on different takes, so we have to mix the two to get a good one :)

Caroline- 24 and 25 Weeks



Week 24- March 30th- April 5th
Week 25- April 6th- 12th

The chair photo is empty because over the 2 weeks we had company, Caroline was sick. First with a cold, then Ear infection and double pink-eye, followed by another bad cold. She was a really big trooper to come along with minimal complaint when she was not feeling well. Mama was struggling to feel better, too, so I am sure that I was the source of her unfortunate illnesses.

There is not a lot to report on this week, other than the fun we had with our visitors! I have a separate post for them. We celebrated Bryan's birthday in between company, and when she was feeling well, she tried sweet potatoes, squash and mango.




WE rushed to get a quick photo before Harrison went off to school. I think it looked great for how much rushing we were all doing :)






Happy Birthday, Daddy!
