Bridal Shower girls.

We went to Nicole’s bridal shower a few weeks ago. Ava was super excited to go to an “all girl” party.

And when we got there, it wasn’t the pink decorations she was excited about.

It was the hot pink lipstick she got to wear!

This is Luka. At 5 days old. His face still a little puffy.

IMG_3750

I think not. Peeyou!

Overheard.

The day after Luka came home, the girls went to school and told everyone all about him. As soon as they came home, they ran through the front the door asking to hold him. And these are the things they said about him in the first few days of his life.

It’s not baby brodel. It’s baby Luka.“, Mila said.

And Ava had a lot more to say about Luka. So far she has told us: “Is baby brother real?” and “Why is baby Luka dark today? He is supposed to be light!” and “What is baby brother’s name again?” and “I can’t believe how cute he is!“.
