Splish Splash

Cora loves bath time! she is completely content the entire time in the water and even makes cute faces like this after!

Getting out

it was in the 60s last week so we went for a little family walk around the neighborhood. it felt so good to get out and get some fresh air. Cora wasn't too sure about it at first (see 1st picture) but she ended up LOVING it! she fell asleep with the bumpy ride, but would fuss every time we stopped. we went to the park near our apartment to throw the fisbee, but of course Cora wanted to keep moving in her stroller, so Geoff pushed her across the grass as we tossed the frisbee to eachother.. i could not stop laughing! it was quite the sight to see!

for 2 weeks in a row now we have gone to all 3 hours of church! Cora is doing great making it through all of the meetings. it is so fun dressing her up.. this outfit is a hand-me-down from my sister's two girls. Thanks Auntie Krista!!

big girl

Cora is starting to smile at us! we definitely see a personality coming through. every day she feels bigger to me and that makes me sad that she is growing so fast! it makes me really want to soak in every moment i have with her.

daddy love

geoff as a husband is amazing, but geoff as a father is the most incredible thing to watch for me.. he is so sweet with Cora and has the perfect touch to put her to sleep, calm her fussiness and make her feel safe. i have loved every moment of seeing him come into the role of being a Father! Sometimes i catch him just staring at her in awe with the most love filled eyes. I am grateful for his constant help, i could not do this parenting thing without him.

Love This Girl

i just can't get enough of her!!!
