Turning a New Leaf...

Hi Little Bird (Evelyn)...
You are now close to 4 months old - 3 months and 3 weeks to be precise. In fact, tomorrow is your baptism! It is very cold - about 40 degrees and we've already had snow which is very early.

Yesterday you decided to roll over from stomach to back - that's the easy way. After you did it a few times ... pop, your sister tried it. Today, you rolled over from back to stomach. It took you a good 20 minutes or so, but it was very fun to see you land on your belly and then not be too sure what to do next. Erin has not yet mastered this - she tries, but can't get all the way over! I always knew you'd roll first - you've been thinking about it for some time. I saw you do it twice today and it really made my day. Tomorrow you and sissy will make my day when you take a step toward having a strong faith.

Pretty much every day you and your sister make my day!
Another fun step in your fabulous life!
Love - Mom

And, when I say Love please know that I love you with every fiber of myself. You and your sister are the most precious miracles in my life. Our family is the most important thing to me.

Do you know why I call you little bird? When you are very tired or sad or hungry you make the sweetest cry - it sounds like a little bird. Your cries are typically more polite than your sisters - she pretty much wails! But, you've been known to shake a few walls as well... Sometimes I call Erin big bird - I think that is a funny name for her as well - in some strange way it is so appropriate.
Gotta run!
Love - Mom
