3 months!

Oh my, how the time has flown by! Not only is Miss Libby getting big, but her personality is growing right along with her. She's such a joy! She's mastered bubble blowing with her spit and she'll have extensive conversations with you when she has a lot on her mind. I only wish I knew what she was saying! LOL At her 2 month check up she was 24 inches and 11.10 lbs! 91% for height and 62% for weight. Our pediatrician said she has the posture of a 4 month old and advanced motor skills... Yep, that's my girl! I breed over achievers! LOL
We drove to Montana over spring break to visit family and friends. What a trip! Wonderful and LONG! Grandma Pooh and Grandpa Gordy was our first stop in Hamilton. It was so wonderful to see them and for them to meet Libby. Aunt Sharon, Uncle Dave, Aunt Sue, Brittany, and Garret were there as well. Grandma had been diagnosed with cancer recently, so we were all out to spend time with her. After our visit in Hamilton it was on to Absorokee to stay with Beth and Justin. We had a blast! We went to Chico Hot Springs the first day we were there. Libby LOVED the water and fell asleep in it. Just before we left we could tell the weather was changing. Sure enough, that night we got 4-5 inches of snow! The crazy thing was that by that afternoon it was super warm! And... the snow doesn't melt there, it more evaporates! I swear! It wasn't mushy and gross when the snow was gone like here in Oregon. They have a new addition also. Greta, who is 2 months older than Libby. It was so funny watching them together. Libby was sure motivated by Greta! We stayed 3 days with the Smith's and then headed back to Hamilton on our way home. Again, another wonderful visit with grandma and grandpa. And another inch of snow... Thursday of that week we headed to Oregon via Baker City to visit the Sargent's... Wonderful friends of ours that left us here in St. Helens. It was such a great time and reminded us how much we miss them. We got home late Friday night and all headed to bed happy to be home. Both girls were amazingly fantastic on the trip! It's great knowing we can take such a long road trip and them do such a good job. On a sad note... Soon after we left, grandma's health went down hill fast. She ended up passing away a week after we saw her. We're so very thankful we were able to see her and have pictures and memories before she left us. Jeromy went back to Montana for the service, but the girls and I stayed home. As great as they were, we didn't want them to have to make that trip again so soon.
We celebrated Libby's first Easter! What a great day. We went to a wonderful church in Hillsboro with great friends of ours, the Trenaman's, and out to brunch with James and Heather. But what's Easter without the hunting of eggs? Madeline woke up to a gift basket from the Easter bunny and a task to find eggs. Libby watched and kept watch over the eggs she found.
What more can I tell you other than we've been so blessed by her as an addition to our family!? I went back to work when she was 4 1/2 weeks old. Jeromy took some time off to spend with her and now my wonderful mother-in-law (and I'm not just saying that for browny points) comes over when we need her to help out with child care. I'm so glad she's able to be such a big part of Libby and Madeline's lives! They love her! We do too, of course! So for now, I work days and Jeromy works nights. He has weekends off, thank goodness! I can not wait for summer break so I can spend all day with both my girls! We got a Zoo pass for Christmas and will be putting it to good use this summer.
As for now... Enjoy the pictures and check back next month for an update!
