Mother's Day

We had a very nice Mother's Day. Joshua's parents invited us to their house for dinner. Would you believe that Joshua had to work? He didn't work a full day, though, so it didn't interfere with the occasion.

Raelee had fallen head-first out of the van Saturday, busting up her nose. It wasn't broken, thank goodness. Just scary seeing her fly out of the van in an odd fashion and not being able to catch her in time. But a bandage on the nose made everything better.

And here is our family on Mother's Day, all 5 of us. Can you believe that we are a family of 5 now? The reality is still setting in. We definitely love our newest addition to the family. She is such a content little one, just like Daniel & Raelee were at the same age. We are so blessed.

Speaking of which, Allison had her 2-week well-child doctor appointment this week. She is now 7 lbs 9 ozs and 19 1/2 inches long (she either shrunk 1/4 inch or was measured incorrectly at birth). But the doctor was very pleased with how she looks, and that she's gaining weight since the 3-day old doctor appointment. And oddly enough, the doctor even commented on how perfectly-shaped her head is. :)
