Andie's Baptism

Andie Rose was baptized on February 28, 2016 by Fr. Antonio at St. John Nepomucene Catholic Church in Ennis. 

Her Godparents are my brother, Corey, and my best friend, Beth.

She is wearing my baptismal gown. You can see how happy she was wearing it.

She did so well. 

Andie being baptized. She never cried.

She was soaking in the moment.

Eli zonked out before we got to the church. This is the best picture we could get of both of them.

I love this picture.

Andie and her Gammy and Poppy

Gammy and Poppy with their two youngest grandchildren. Obadiah was dedicated the same day at his church. We had so many blessings that day.

After Baptism, we had everyone over for lasagna and cupcakes. 

Andie is Two Months Old

This little sweetheart is two months old.

Her personality has started to come out.

She is still a great sleeper. She wakes up two times, at the most, during the night.

She is such a happy baby. She loves to smile.

Getting cheeky.

This gorgeous girl is also very mild mannered.

It doesn't take much to see her smile come out.

Her hair has a tint of red in it.

She started tummy time and turned over from stomach to back at 6 weeks.

My aunt Joan had this gown made with her name on the side. 

Eli loves playing with her, but has yet to understand that she's not able to play like him.

More of that smile.

It was a little cold and the owl hat came out for her to wear.

Our little love bug

She went to her first polka dance in Penelope when her Poppy played

I just love that smile.

We tried to get a good selfie, but it didn't come out very good.

One of my most prized pictures of these two. He was making her laugh.

Marley loves to hold baby Andie

We tried out the bumbo, but she's still a bit small for it.

More of my pretty princess. 

Two months old and we are blessed even more.

Andie is One Month Old

Our little Andie is one month old.

She is such a joy and is such a sweet newborn.

On her second night home she slept 7 straight hours!! I woke up in a panic, but she was snoozing away. She established a good sleep routine right away.

She catnaps in the day time and sleeps longer stretches in the evening.

At five days old, she met her newest cousin, who was only one day old.

Big brother loves to cuddle with her.

She tried on her first party dress.

And took her first bath. She sat back and enjoyed it.

She also attended her first Sylvester Christmas party. She was held and loved by so many aunts, uncles, and cousins.

It got cold, so she had to bundle up in her bear suit.

She also was a bit fashionable and tried out her first pair of shoes.

She went to Sam's with big brother and cousin.

I got a selfie with her.

Poppy held her while celebrating Christmas at Grandma Mikula's.

Great-Grandma Mikula holding her. We gave her the middle name Rose after my grandmother, Rosie.

She attended her first Christmas Eve Mass.

She is very alert.

She went to her first New Year's Eve party.

And is blessing us every day.
