Baby time

That's a lot of cuddling 

I love the smiles

Chicks

Sadly, a beloved chicken died today. But it left room for some new chicks.

We got a barred rock called Mohawk
Two cinnamon queens called Tilly and Cimorene
An Isa Brown called Elizabeth Bennet
A Smoky Pearl called Dotty Speckles


Braces

Two kids with braces!

Outside

It was in the 50s, but we bundled Bernadette 


I took her for her first stroller ride. She didn't sleep (I don't think!) but she seemed content. This 3 month snowsuit might still fit next winter 😂

Max

He loves his sisters



Eggs

I forgot to post these!

Isi found two eggs, then kept refilling that play mug with candy and walking around eating it.

Max was enthusiastic. I didn't take many other pictures, but even the tough eggs were found by big kids.

Altar serving

Once a year, Mass is held in the historic church next to our current church. Father asked if the boys would like to serve and it was very cool!

Hands and feet

It was Holy Thursday, so we washed feet


And this little hand 😍 the bouncer sleeping only lasted 20 min, but isn't she adorable!


Inside out

Well, I told him to get dressed and I was not more specific 


Smiling

Bernadette is smiling! She's only 4.5 weeks, but I'm pretty sure it's targeted - she was delighted to get up this morning and see me. A few days ago I caught this, but it was much more fleeting than the next one from today.

One month!

Somehow, this baby is one month old already. She's celebrating with a nice nap.

Baby faces
