We had a fun visit from Grammy and Paga. They got to meet Naomi for the first time, and Ava and Lilly basked in all the extra attention. They came at a good time, because they got to witness Ava learn to ride a two-wheeler for the first time. The girls got scooters for Christmas, and we quickly realized that Ava was good enough at balancing on her scooter that she was clearly ready to take her training wheels off. In a matter of minutes she was taking off all on her own, riding up and down our street.
This week was also butterfly week in the Nielson household. Lilly got a butterfly kit for her birthday. The caterpillars came in the mail and we watched them quadruple in size and form chrysalises. This week they started to hatch. It has been a fun little science project for the girls, but I have to admit, it's all kind of gross. I can't wait for the butterflies to mature enough to release so I don't have to have bugs in the house.
Another big moment today was Naomi's first real bath. Her "umbicord" (umbilical cord in Lilly-speak) finally came off completely, so in the sink she went. Like her sisters before her, she didn't like it at all, but she smells extra delicious again.

I am dying to see this sweet darling baby girl. Susie and Keith said she was an absolute dream baby and was so fun to hold. Will you send some of her aura this way?
Oh, and way to go Ava!
