April Fun

We had some more exciting times in April.
#1 - the first time at Aunt Lea and Uncle TJ's house

#2 - the first time Autumn was away from me and Keith. She spent the weekend with Keith's parents while we went to the mountains with some friends. She enjoyed the weekend with Mymaw and Papa.
#3 - First time trying baby food - she loves it!

#4 - Lots of times outside on a blanket under the trees or on walks.

#5 - and of course lots of cuddling with dad...

5 Months Old and Look at all the Fun!

A few fun pictures from April:

After the Baptism, part of my family stayed for a few fun days. We went to the zoo one day:


One day we also visited my cousin Josh's wife, Jennifer and my Aunt Patsy. They have 3 month old twin girls. The cousins got to meet! This picture if of my Aunt Patsy and my mom with all the grandkids including Autumn and the twins.


Autumn's eyes keep getting bluer!

Keith and I worked in the yard and Autumn played. She is loving being outside in the warm weather.

Baptism

On March 30, Keith had the privilege of baptizing Autumn in the 4th service at church. It was an amazing day with all of our family in attendance along with our incredible church family. God is so amazing! Here are some pictures.

Easter

We had a great Easter with Keith's family. Couple of new developments this week:
1) Autumn rolled over for the first time - Keith and I were both there to witness it.
2) She has a new toy - Her Exersaucer where she loves to bounce
3) All 3 of us enjoyed a day at the park on a blanket soaking in the nice weather.

Next Sunday is Autumn's baptism. Keith is doing it. We are excited to have all of our family there.

Well the last several weeks have been busy. We(Keith, Autumn, and I) all worked Radical Renewal a junior high intown retreat. Then the next weekend we all took off for Autumn's first out of town youth retreat - Ski Trip. We sent to West Virginia for 4 days with 40 senior high youth. It was lots of fun. She was great! Here are some pictures:
