Today Mary Grace turns three weeks and to be perfectly honest I cannot remember what our house was like before she entered our family! She fits right in! Abbie has her good days and bad days with Mary Grace... please let me share a little story. Abbie constantly asks to hold Mary Grace... she points and Mary Grace and says hold peesh. Last night I was sitting with Mary Grace on the couch and Abbie climbed right up and sat with us; she then asked to hold her. So and arranged the pillows and placed Mary Grace safely in her sister’s arms... Abbie did not like that way so I place Mary Grace between her legs and Abbie started to play with Mary Grace (stinky toes and we call in in our house). She was showing Kevin and I Stinky toes with Mary Grace and it was very sweet and then all of a sudden out of no where she started pinching Mary Grace's foot really hard and would not let go for what seemed like 5 minutes. It took Mary Grace to scream and daddy to yell no Abbie from Abbie to finally let go. Needless to say Abbie sat in timeout and then said sorry to Mary Grace and gave her a hug and a kiss.
I am hoping moments like these do not continue for long... but I know they must be somewhat normal for her age and for the fact that her world has been turned upside down.
I cannot remember if I shared in my previous post that Miss Mary Grace has torticollis... my diagnosis of course (poor kid to have a therapist as a mom). So since birth I have been stretching, positioning and doing tummy time; even Kevin is getting a handle on this! But she gets better each day.
Here are a few new pictures that I took today on her 3 week birthday!!

you changed the name of the blog - i love it!! I can't believe that it's already been 3 weeks since she was born. She's so cute! Poor Abbie, like you said, her world has been turned upside down. Now it's just her time to shine as an older sister!
Kevin, Ilene and Abby,
Congratulations! That's beautiful baby you have there.
