Jibberish

Well I try to post at least twice a month, and seeing how tomorrow is the last day of April, I better get on it! I love this video, and it took a few tries to get. Andrea loves chit-chatting with her Daddy. I can never get her to talk to me like she does to him. I always try to grab the camera but she gets fussy right when I hit record. But finally I captured her adorable way to communicate!

I had the opportunity to babysit my niece Brigitta yesterday while her parents ran some errands. It gave me a good glimpse of what having two kids might be like. It wasn't so bad, Brigitta is old enough to take care of most things herself. However, I discovered that messes seem to appear out of nowhere and by surprise. Just watching a movie ended up with 4 blankets spread across the floor, how? I found it kind of funny as I was folding them back up. She seems to be at the "asking questions" phase and I didn't have a lot of answers for her while we watched Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Like "how did chitty chitty bang bang get old?" How can you explain wear and tear to a 4 year old?

Lately there have been so many moments that I have wanted to post and just haven't had time. First of all, I took some video of Andrea waking up from a nap. I just love getting her from her naps, she is so happy. However, her happiness only last about 2 minutes until she realizes she is hungry but I try to prepare and get a bottle ready when I hear her waking up.

Tessy is really starting to warm up to Andrea now, some days when Andrea is in her nursery and I am doing chores I realize I can't find Tessy. Well, she is usually laying on the floor in Andrea's room. It's so fun to watch them slowly bond. To top it off, last week while I was getting ready for work I layed Andrea on our couch. When I went to get her to put her in her car seat I found this...How adorable! I can only imagine how much Tessy will love her when Andrea is dropping food on the floor.

This weekend was a special one for us, not only was it Easter, it was Andrea's blessing day. What a wonderful memory to think that her first Easter dress was her blessing dress. In all the years of attending other's baby blessings, I always looked forward to that special day for my baby and was anxious to hear what blessings her Daddy would give. Ryan gave such a beautiful blessing, and it was wonderful to hear in words all the hopes he has for our little girl. Family and friends came from all over, and we really appreciate them giving some time on their Easter Sunday to support us. I loved having everyone at our home and only wished I could have visited more one on one with each of you. What a great life we have to have such wonderful people surround us and so many blessings in our lives!
