Mollie is one month

Mollie turned one month yesterday. Here are some pictures over the last month. The girls didn't get to go to the hospital to meet Mollie because of RSV still going around here, so they had to wait until we came home to meet her. They loved holding her, and holding her.


Less than a week

One week
 Clark has been taking the girls to church by himself. The first week was stake conference and we got this cute picture beforehand.
I love how Shelby is looking at Clark.

2 weeks



 Here's Mollie at one month. Love this little baby.
Working on the chub.

Loves to curl those toes.



This face cracks me up.


The girls trying on their 4th of July outfits.
We love our Mollie Jo. She is changing so much and we enjoy every minute with her. She is quite calm, and is starting to need more entertainment to keep from getting bored when she is awake. I enjoy cuddling with her and kissing those cheeks. She is a stomach sleeper and is quite the spitty baby, but is still quite pleasant in spite of it. I forget how grunty and squeaky newborns are, it's so cute! She had a cold shortly after she was born, and had to be suctioned a lot. The pediatrician told us when we were still in the hospital she has the head strength of a two-month-old. At her check-up he said she was ok to stomach sleep because she is strong enough to turn her head if she needs to. She likes to keep her fists under her chin in a boxer position. We had a bit of a fiasco trying to get nursing down and had some latching and low milk supply issues. I've pumped, nursed and pumped, supplemented, just about everything. We are trying to exclusively nurse during the day, but occasionally I have to supplement. She likes bath time, cuddles, her pacifier, her fist, the baby bjorn, and pressure on her tummy. We have seen a couple glimpses of a smile, but can't get it with any regularity yet.

She's adorable! What a sweet girl. And I bet it's so nice that she can sleep on her stomach. It seems like most babies sleep better that way (well, at least that's how it has been in my limited experience).

I can't get over the girl's curls. Beautiful! It looks like they love their sister. Adorable pictures.

She is a doll! Ashton and Shelby are also and I love seeing them grow. Hope things are going good over your way. We need to keep in touch!!!
