A Blessing
We’ve been accused of not giving Caroline enough “face time” on our blog. Here’s a post all about her. We blessed Caroline several weeks ago. Here is our new and improved family:
It’s just too bad Brooke has strawberry juice all over her face and dress and that I wasn’t holding Caroline up so you can see her. Oh well.
We did a photo shoot with Caroline after her blessing. We never got a good picture of Brooke in her blessing dress and I didn’t want to make that same mistake again with Caroline .

Dinosaur Museum
I love taking Brooke to new places. Everything is so novel to her and I can see her taking in her surroundings and soaking up everything.

Believe it or not–a picture of me!
Brooke excavating

Since Caroline’s birth, we’ve been wondering if she would develop big eyes like Brooke did. We got our answer:
And just when we thought Brooke had finally grown into her eyes…
