4 months old!!!! AHHHHHH!!!!

I cannot believe my little princess is 4 months old already!!!  We are 1/3 of the way through her first year and it's been simply amazing 😊.  This past month she has realized that her toes are SOOOO much fun to play with while getting her diaper changed. She is not quite able to get them into her mouth yet. She has also discovered that her fingers are almost as awesome as her binki. It's hard to get a picture of that girl without her fingers in her mouth. 

She flew for the second time last week. We flew to Missouri to see my dad and my brothers. We had a great time visiting with everyone. It was a much needed break from the day to day life in Virginia. She is such a fantastic traveler. She slept the entire time we were in the air. Our fellow passengers thanked me for having such a wonderful infant. I was so proud of her!!!  
She was such a champion!!

During our trip she was able to enjoy some much needed bonding time with her sweet cousin Liliana. 


Both of the girls were able to see their great grandpa Bob. He has not been in great health recently so I'm extra thankful for the visit. 


Afton also got to meet her oldest cousin Logan!!

We all made some wonderful memories!! 
My very best friend from high school, Jade!!

Paul and I we very excited to get some 4 month pictures taken when I got home from my trip. 


While we were on our trip, Paul called to tell me his brother Cameron and his girlfriend Logan had sent Afton a present!  It's the cutest onesie EVER!!!  I about died when I was able to put her in it 😊😊😊😊😊

Another set of pictures I have been so excited to take are the pictures in the dress I wore when I was about 5 months!!  


Afton, Paul and I attended our first wedding reception together. It was such a wonderful reception ❤️
Pauls mom Lorraine 😊
One of my dearest friends!!!!! Emily Snow 
My two favorite people!!!!!

In other news, Paul and I are moving on Saturday!  We have been given the amazing opportunity to move in with his parents for the next 12-24 months. Paul and I are so anxious to buy a house and although we could do it now, we would love to have a significant down payment on a house when we do buy and NOT have to touch the savings we have worked so hard to build up. I feel so blessed that Afton will have two of her grandparents close by. Albemarle County is very expensive to live in so this will make a house purchase in this county easier and if we do decide to look in the next county over it will allow us to put our house on a 20 year payoff instead of 30... At least that is our goal. We would love to have a house paid for by the time Paul retires in Aprox 30 years. 

Well friends and family. That's all I have for now. I hope everyone had a fantastic Easter weekend.
