Life with the Sisters

Here's a quick picture update on life with the girls in March:

Grandma and her granddaughters . . .



. . . and the unruly grandson, complete with the lion mane and mask Grandma bought him.

Daddy was sick one day, and all three joined him on the couch.

Tummy time for two! Lydia is on the left and Abby on the right.

. . . with some kisses for Lydia.

Pa and Grandma with their three grandchildren--and the iPhone!

Ha--I love the faces here.

Last Day with Grandma

New Family

It's still hard to fathom our jump from a family of three to a family of five! Here are some pictures of the three of us with the two new family members.

Mama and Lydia, who was fussy and decided not to look

Daddy with Abby

Aren't They Sweet?

James and Emily visited the first weekend in March, and James kindly took some pictures for us. Here's a sampling of his photographic prowess--and the cuteness of our three babes. :)


Josiah loves to hold the babies' hands!
 

Isn't he just the cutest boy ever?

Classic Josiah look.

Our Girls

Daniel and Lauren came to visit the second day we were in the hospital.



Josiah was happy to have Mama and Daddy home, and he has spurts of interest in his new sisters! Here he's pointing to and naming various parts of Abby's face--ears, nose, eyes (we try to avoid the poking on this one), etc. He seems fascinated that they have all these parts, too! 

In the below picture, he's holding out his hand in hopes of Abby licking him--like he does with dogs.

Here he's saying, "Hi!" He says it in a sweet, high-pitched voice whenever he sees the "bebes."

He loves to kiss them!

 

 

What a big boy he seems to us now.

Abby stuck out her tongue--and Josiah thought it was pretty funny. He was recounting the story to us here.
