This weekend we will probably be spending a lot of time at the lake. Jacklynn is a little unsure about this...
On Sunday at church, we dedicated Jacklynn to the Lord. It was awesome! Our prayer for Jacklynn (stolen from a friend :)) is that she would never know a day where she did not know the Lord. These are a few pictures from the service and just after. All of Nick and I's grandparents and parents were there and almost all of our siblings. It was so great to be together and hang out all weekend!
We spent the afternoon at my father-in-laws barn hanging out and playing volleyball. It was a beautiful day! These are all of Jacklynn's 2nd cousins on Nick's mom's side. Sophia, Jillian, Jacklynn, and Lauren...aren't they precious?! Sophia is exactly a year older than Jacklynn and Jillian and Lauren are twins born 4 months before her.
That is all for now! I love you all dearly!
Jacklynn is officially 3 months old! I can't believe it...It honestly feels like she has been around forever! And I love that! She is so fun to be with...smiling, laughing, talking, and especially when she is showing you that she is not getting what she wants in quite the dramatic way! Her new thing is rolling over. She does it now both directions from her tummy. It is actually a twist and roll as depicted below...
After we get done working, I make dinner and she usually joins me on the counter in her "Bumbo" chair. It is so funny because it is like she knows that this chair allows her to sit up (something she could not do on her own) and that makes her feel cool or something. We bond in the kitchen!
Working is good, but crazy. I don't think there is any amount of money that someone could pay me to go back to work without Jacklynn though. So, we enjoy hanging out with 1-3 kids every day of the week. We frequent the park quite often (where Jacklynn has learned how to swing in the toddler swings by basically dangling over the front) as well as the museum, the zoo, the do-it-yourself pools, and occasional garage sales. It really is the life and I nanny the best kids around so that helps!
In case you were wondering who Jacklynn looks like, I am not sure. But I do know that she has her daddy's profile!
This is the store that her family owned and they lived upstairs.
While we were there, Jacklynn had her first swimming experience. She was a little unsure of going under, but other than that thoroughly enjoyed it!
My mom bought her this Easter dress that she looked like a little princess in!
This was the first time that my whole family had been together since Jacklynn was born.
It was so nice to be able to relax for a little bit, esp. since grandma was willing to help out with EVERYTHING!!
My dad taught Jacklynn how to sing loudly in public while pretending to direct an orchestra...something every 2 month old should learn!
We actually got to spend sometime with Steph and Jason, which was very exciting since they are both usually so busy.
Jenni, always looking cute, helped us all find things to wear on Sunday.
And Ben. He was trying to make a smiley face out of his pancakes, but that venture was unsuccessful. Then he thought Jackie would look cute in this hat...its a little large! But something he is amazing at...basketball. We got to see two of his games while we were out there.
OH, we found a little bear at the Garden of the Gods....
