Molly rolled over!

Molly rolled over today for the FIRST TIME! (She will be 5 months old on Sunday!) She rolled from her tummy to her back.....just once......but it's a start!

Elmo

Everyone knows that Kelly LOVES her blanket that Grandma Peggy made her......if you don't, I'm sure she will tell you the next time she sees you! Anyway, besides her blanket, she always has to sleep with her pillow and Elmo too! Kelly has always been a wonderful "big sister" but today she decided to share her blanket and Elmo with Molly while she was sitting in her bumbo chair. Molly LOVED Kelly's ELMO! :)

a BIG difference!

For the past few weeks, a lot of re-modeling has been going on.....like wiring, electrical, etc. that you can't really "see" that things are being done. This last week, things REALLY started to look different. Here is a before picture of our old computer room.....and a current picture as of right now!!! There is a BIG difference!

Papa's sidekick

As everyone knows.....we are in the middle of re-modeling our house. At the beginning, they were not "in" our house. Now that they have moved into the house, Kelly is Papa's sidekick....ALL THE TIME! She always wants to be Papa's helper! My Dad is doing 75-80% of the work by himself. He is here almost everyday working from early in the morning until at least 8:00pm. Brian comes home from work and helps Dad and then they both work on the weekends together. We haven't had much help from other people......but Kelly is the first one to volunteer every day! :)

Isabella's First Communion

Isabella made her first communion last night at St. Anthony's with Father Kutsch. He is a retired priest that is helping out at church while Father Dan is on sabatical. Father Kutsch was the priest at St. Anthony's when I went to school there too! After church we went to Isabella's house for "BELLA'S PARTY!"

Easter pictures

Here are some of the Easter pictures I got taken of the girls. We got two of them together (one in the outfits my mom gave them for Easter and one in their Easter dresses). Molly didn't want to smile for those pictures....she was still getting over being sick! Then I have my favorite one of the girls alone too!

How tall will Molly be???

Today was Molly's 4 month doctor appointment (even though she is 4 1/2 months old now!) Here is how it breaks down....

Molly 4 1/2 months

Weight - 17 lbs. 3 oz. - 90%

Height - 26 1/4 inches - 97%

Head - 41.5 cm - 50%

Kelly at exactly 4 months old

Weight - 16 lbs. even

Height - 25 1/4 inches

Head - 40.5 cm

The doctor said everything looked good.......except we need to work with her on pushing on us or the exersaucer or a jump-a-roo (which we don't have)...since that is a developmental milestone that she isn't doing as of right now. We tried her in the exersaucer tonight.....but she doesn't fit her feet on the bottom, like the doctor wanted. We will just have to keep working with her. Other than her blocked tear duct in her right eye (which I have to take her to an eye specialist tomorrow morning)....all is well. She is a healthy little girl. Her lungs sounded great.....so she is over her first cold!!! :)
