Sweet Essie is getting so big and starting to make all the exciting first changes; the cooing, the smiling, the looking around with fascination instead of constant astonishment and loosing that “newborn” look.

One Month Old
Monday, October 10th, 2011
Esther is a month old today (note how prompt I am with this post!) and has perfected her stinky witch face.
This month has gone so quickly yet finally having Esther with us (this side of the tummy) has felt like such a long time. She has just fit right into the family like another piece of the puzzle that’s been here for such a long time, waiting to join the fun.
The first few months of “new baby” can be long and trying, but she’s been such an easy going baby, starting to stay awake more during the day and sleep longer stretches at night, 3-4 hours at a time! So we can’t complain.
I love watching her get plump, seeing her smiles, hearing her sweet little coos and laughing at her old lady screeches. Happy one month day baby sissy!
It Is Marvelous In Our Eyes
Saturday, October 1st, 2011
Our sweet Esther received the gifts and promises of God in Holy Baptism on Sunday.
“The LORD has done this,
and it is marvelous in our eyes.
The LORD has done it this very day;
let us rejoice today and be glad.” Psalm 118: 23-24
Big Brother

Meeting sister.
Gerhardt is adjusting very well to his new role as big brother. He thinks baby sis is alright, but the things she comes with are way cooler.
A bouncy seat!
A pacifier!
Oooo, and legs!
