6 weeks!

Ava is now 6 weeks old; I can't believe it! Time has gone so fast. I am really enjoying my time at home with her. It is crazy how much she changes so fast! Piper continues to go to daycare 4 days a week; she loves it there. She has learned lots of songs; she can even sing a song in Spanish!

Is she going to love her nuk as much as Piper did??

The other night Piper wanted to take a picture with Ava; which turned into about 10 more pics-- all the exact same pose!

Sweet girls!

Baptism

Baptism for Ava was this past Sunday. It was a great day with family! Ava was a little upset during the service, luckily it was after mass. We soon all realized while she was upset; you will see the evidence in pictures below!

We had a HUGE mess under her pretty gown; can you say BLOW OUT?

Ava doesn't even know what to think...

Sleepover

This past weekend we had a sleepover. Harper, along with Grandma and Grandpa Vigen, stayed at our house on Saturday. We had a football party to watch the Bison game. It was so much fun; such an exciting game! Obviously, we were all upset by the outcome, but so happy for such a great year! We are excited to see what next year has in store for them! We are sure proud of Uncle Brent!

Getting excited!

We were so loud, Grandma had to cover Harper's ears

Piper cheering.... she is going to be so sad when she realizes that there are no more games this year. She really has become quite the little Bison fan!

One month

A big weekend in our house--- Piper is now nuk-less!!! She has gone with no nuk for the last six days! Piper has also got back into potty-training; she has went three times over the weekend. Ava slept through the night last night-- the best news for me!! :) And to top it off, the Bison won their play-off game. They are now in the elite eight and off to play in Washington next weekend.

Ava is one month old now! IT HAS GONE SO FAST!

Sisters!!

Piper just had to get in the picture... but then couldn't keep her eyes open because she was saying cheese so much!

Family Pics

Last week we took family pictures in Fargo. Ava cried most of the time and Piper wouldn't smile. Needless to say, we were very worried to see how they turned out. Much to our surprise, we got some real good pictures and were very impressed. Here are some of our favorites...
