The [Three Weeks Old] Adventure

Sweet baby Marie is three weeks old!  Where has the time gone?  Every day she changes and grows and expands our hearts a little more.

She is the sweetest, squirmiest, most delightful little girl.  In these three weeks, she has gained some pounds, found her voice, lost some hair, made multiple outings to Grandma and Grandpa's, gone to the zoo, gotten her first bath, met her Roodhouse side of the family and enjoyed LOTS of time with Mommy and Daddy--snuggling and kissing and talking and loving.

Her personality is really starting to show!  Right now she loves looking in the mirror, and looking at the crucifix hanging above her changing table.  She is very alert when she's awake and likes to be talked to and sung to (and she has SO many noises that it sounds like she's talking back sometimes).  She's already holding her head up on her own for a minute at a time, and she rarely stops wiggling.  She's so much fun.

It's hard to believe how quickly the time goes and how much she changes, but every day brings something new and amazing and we are so grateful for her and the love and joy she has brought into our lives!

 






She does have a left hand; it just doesn't look like it here...

This week, Grandma and Grandpa Schweiss and Auntie Erin come to visit for her baptism!  We can't wait to see them all!
