Four Months Old!

12 June 2016

Dear Daughters,

Now that the weather has warmed up, there is less of a chance of you getting sick. This means that we have started taking you out in public more. It was an exciting day when we first took you to church. Everyone there was so thrilled to meet you.

It's so fun to dress you up for church and other outings. There was one Sunday when you wore matching dresses that showed off your bellies. I thought that was a little strange, but you still looked cute. After church, Grandma Jones came over and pointed out that I had put your dresses on backwards. Oops.

Wrong

Right

You attended your first baptism and were so well-behaved. Right before the closing prayer ended, Miss E let out a huge burp. It was so funny. We always encourage you both when you burp. Your cousin Timmy was confused because people are often discouraged from burping loudly, but we cheer you on.

You also got to visit my classroom and Dad’s classroom on the last day of school. The students were so stoked to see you. You hung around my school as I packed and cleaned up all my stuff. I was sad to think about not being a teacher next year, but being your mom is way better than any other job.

You got to meet Grandma and Grandpa Cox for the first time this weekend. They are so happy to be here with you. Since they're in town, we had your baby blessing today. It was a great day. I loved listening to the blessings you were each given. After both blessings, your cousin declared them to be the “longest prayer ever.” :)

It's a good thing there are two of you so the grandmas don't have to share.

I can't believe how big you are getting. Nobody can. We got back some pictures from a photographer that were taken about a month ago. You already look so different. You are smiling a lot now and we can't get enough of your little dimples. You're just so cute.

One Month Ago

Now

Update 6/13/16: You had your four month appointment today at the doctor’s office. You are in the 46th percentile for weight and the 69th percentile for height! Woohoo! (To put things into perspective- you were in the 6th percentile for weight at your last check up)

Love you lots!

Mom

P.S. I put together a little video of you two. Enjoy!
