Busy Busy Week

Wow! This past week was full of fun for me and the girls. Last Monday Brooklyn got her ears pierced, Wednesday we were at the park all morning, Friday we went Strawberry picking and Saturday we went swimming (Brooklyn's first time in the pool) at Mimi and Papa's house. Then on Sunday night we slept outside in the backyard in a tent. We had a wonderfully exhausting week.

Alyssa

Alyssa will turn 4 in May and she is already asking for a party! What have I gotten myself into? We only do "friend" parties every other year, so she remembers hers from last year. She told me the other day that she would like a pink CD player and a pink Bible, oh and a pink notebook too. She is super girly! She is learning to be a big helper around the house by unloading the dishwasher or dusting the furniture with baby wipes. She is anxious to start school but i think that is only because she knows her cousin does it. Here is a recent picture of her.









Mery Mery Quite Contrary...


Our little Meredith is full of energy. She never stops. She is 2 1/2 now. She loves her baby sister and her big sister,but sometimes in unusual ways. She makes us laugh because of how crazy she can be. She has no fear and obviously as a 2 year old, she doesn't have the ability to anticipate pain. She walks around the outside mat of the trampoline, you know the part on the outside part of the net that moms have to have to protect their jumping children. But she walks all the way around with no problem.

My Dear Husband

For those of you who haven't heard my husband preach in a long while -- I want to take this opportunity to brag. Grace Church is going through a series on Isaiah and this past Sunday David preached a wonderful message on trusting God, "Do you believe the promises?"! If you'd like to listen, you can download it here. Each week he preaches I am aware of how gifted he is to serve the body of Christ in this way.

Introducing *Brooklyn*

Brooklyn is now 3 1/2 months old. She is growing so fast. Many people say she looks just like Alyssa and Meredith. Which at different times she does look just like they did as babies. She is a good sleeper and a good eater (you'll be able to tell that by the pictures).

Just 1 day old!

Explanation

Okay, so I am not a writer, nor with this be something I keep up with. But my days are good and plenty. Life is full of wonderful blessings in our season of life. I am doing this so our friends and family that don't live close by can see pictures of the girls as they grow and general Traugott family updates. Enjoy!
