Week 20- This is my baby girl at our mother's day brunch, my prettiest little flower.

Week 21- Here we are at Gemma's last Tumbling Tots class. She always needs a moment to herself at the beginning before she goes in and I just love that about her.

Week 18- This is Gemma meeting her new baby cousin Charlotte for the first time. I adore the way she touches her. For the most part there was just a lot of pointing and even some weird hand waving near her head. She did get a little too excited and pulled on her fingers a few times but Charlotte didn't seem to mind. She's gonna be one tough cookie with these two rascals hanging around.

Week 19- This is Gem observing the big kids playing. She is so gentle in these moments and so innocent and my little baby. My heart bursts with realizations that I can't be with her everywhere at all times holding her and keeping her safe. I love to see her interact but I also just want to scoop her up and have her all to myself again. You know what I mean?

Week 16- At my Aunt Jane's house for Easter weekend. She had a blast with her older cousins and the weather was beautiful! I took pictures of her in sunshine everywhere she went.

Week 17- With rainy cold weather back upon us we got a break and headed outside. Gemma is a helpful Virgo so I set her to the task of gardening. She attacked with gusto.
