First Trip to the Swimming Pool

Yesterday Molly and Ainsley, joined by Morgan, Catherine, and Andrew went swimming at the YMCA. There was much fun had by everyone. Ainsley had not one tear or moment of distress but kicked her legs the time they were in the water. She loved zooming around in Molly's arms or jumping up and down. She did not even have problems with the continual shower of splashes provided by Andrew. Both Molly and Ainsley had an early night and lazy next morning due to being so worn out. Also before swimming, Morgan and Molly had another photo shoot with Catherine and Ainsley. What a wonderful day off!

Well we were not sue it was possible but we have gotten cuter pictures of Ainsley! That is truly hard to believe so here they are for you to judge!

New pictures! The blanket Ainsley is playing on was originally Molly's Dad's (Papa) and last week during one of our bonus warmer days Ainsley and Molly played in the backyard with the dogs. This afternoon Ainsley and Molly went on a walk joined by Ginger and Madeline. Since Ainsley was in a pretty happy mood (which is most of the time!) Molly put her in the stroller front facing for the first time. It is amazing how just that simple change of position can make Ainsley seem like such a big girl! By the end of the nap she was well worn out from all the fun! However she did wake up when Brent got home and surprised us both by rolling over from back to front for the first time. It was so funny to watch her because she kept staring at us as if to say, "What's the big deal?!" We were both very excited!

Home Again!

Last weekend the Three Brauns traveled to Chicago for a dental conference. The trip went very well and Ainsley was such a good baby. Here are some pictures of our trip including visiting Wrigley Field and Cousin John's apartment (I think it would be second cousin once removed). 

Ainsley continues to grow and change. She is sitting up on her own now and tries hard to pull herself up from laying down. We are still waiting on her first teeth but they are slow to come in. 

Work on both fronts is going through a stressful time with Brent's musical he is directing running on 19th-21st and Molly still trying to juggle work and being a new mom.
