Annie at 4 weeks

Annie's first Sunday. This was a dress that I wore when I was a baby.

Jason rocked her in her car seat for like half an hour during Sacrament mtg before she finally fell asleep.
Annie and Dr. Porter. We loved our doctor. She already gained more than a pound (8lbs 4 oz) and grew 2 inches (21).

It was so sad to see them prick her heel for the PKU test. The prick isn't even the worst part. They have to squeeze out enough blood for 7 different tests and it takes like 5 minutes. It is hard to see your little one go through pain.

Such a cutie! She kinda looks like a boxer with her hand thingies on.

I love the church dress! And, Paisley has that same little cherry dress. They could be twinsies except it's too freakin' cold here for her to wear it anymore!

I hear ya with the hard to see your baby in pain thing. But you have to get used to it because they have to get a butt-load of shots. Paisley had 4 shots (+ an oral vaccine) for her 4 month b-day today. SAD!

Caroline she is just SO cute! She has SO much hair too!! I love the picture with her and the dr. And those blood test are the WORST! I had to take Jack back 3 times that first week for blood tests.. (that added to my stress I'm sure!)

Did the PKU test make you cry? I always had Brandon hold Lily down for any kind of pricking. He was the bad guy on those days & I was the comforter...:) Aren't I nice!?

Caroline, she is so adorable!!! She is so tiny! She just looks like a little doll, especially in the pink frilly dress. I wish I could see her! I hope things are going well. Love you!

You're such a good mommy to keep those little nails covered. Kenzie was always scratching herself because I would forget those little gloves and half the time she'd start crying, I always felt AWFUL. Anywho, she beautiful!
