Our Baptism Weekend

We were baptised on April 20th. We met our cousin Riley, Aunt Megan, and Uncle Brendan for the first time.


Riley didn't know what to think about us!




Our Great Grandpa's wife, Corinne made our baptismal gowns. They were beautiful!

Three Months Old!

We turned 3 months old on April 12th!

Emma had a tough month though. Dad had to bring her to the emergency room to remove a hair tourniquet on one of her toes. One of mom's hairs wrapped around her toe 8 times - so tightly that the doctor had to cut her toe on both sides to remove it. After it was removed, it healed very quickly.

Then, when we got home from Florida, Emma developed an allergic reaction to something and had hives all over her body. We don't know what caused it, but we are glad they are gone!
We've started to sleep a little better at night now. Every once in a while we only get up once, eat and go right back to bed. Mom and dad are hoping this is a trend that sticks!

Here are some pictures from our three month birthday.

Our First Vacation

We went on our first vacation to Bonita Springs, FL to visit Grandma and Grandpa Kennefick. We did great on the airplane - we slept the entire time both ways.

Emma made mom and dad laugh when she couldn't figure out where the voices were coming from when the pilot came on!

We went on lots of walks along the beach.


We really enjoyed our walks but unfortunately we could never stay awake to see the scenery!

Our favorite toy at Grandma and Grandpa's was the ceiling fan in their bedroom. We got to look at it with every diaper change!


We had fun getting dressed up in summer clothes! I think mom and Grandma had more fun though...






Emma wanted Claire out of the way here...but little did Emma know that Claire would try to eat her hand!




We went for our first swim in their pool.

Claire didn't mind the water, but Emma was not happy about her first swim!


We had a lot of fun playing with Grandma and Grandpa! We think they had fun too...




Our first picture at sunset.

Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for a great vacation!

Happy Easter!

We got all dressed up in our bunny outfits for Easter! We got to spend some time with family. Below is a picture of Emma with Great Grandpa Kennefick.
