Meet Abigial Elizabeth Nagode

Happy Birthday, Abigail!
She was in this exact pose in one of the 3D sonograms.

3 weeks old and already alret!

Abigail loves her binky!

During a smile session, but mom couldn't catch it on film!

Abigial is the "Nagode baby" with the exception of her dark hair which is more like mom's! She has been our chubby little cheeks baby since day one. Many have made the comment that she looks like a chipmunk and lots of people love to kiss and squeeze those darling chubby cheeks! Abigail started out to be the fussy baby, but big sis Anna Mae has now taken on that role. The only time Abigail fusses is when she is craving that taste of bottle! Abigail seems to get bigger eyes as the days past. She is becoming much more alert and LOVES to smile when we talk to her. She is making really good eye contact and seems to be socializing quiet well for a 6 week old.

Nana nicknamed her Cuddle Bug, which is very fitting. When she is cuddled she will quickly fall asleep and is very content. It used to be, that the second we put her down she would stir around and quickly let you know she wanted to be held. 6 weeks later, she is much more content when she is placed down for a nap, and even has the ability to soothe herself to sleep.

Abigail seems to be independent and rather smooth sailing for the most part. She is shorter than Anna Mae, therefore developing multiple and such adorable thigh roles! She likes to be tickled, patted, talked to and played with.

We love you, little girl!! :D

Meet Anna Mae Nagode

5 weeks :) and so Precious

4 weeks! Isn't my face filling out well?

Three weeks! So big!

I love car rides... looking out the window especially!

Happy Birthday, Anna Mae!

Anna Mae is the big sis by 1 minute! At birth, she seemed so dainty and fragile. She kept us up those first couple of nights by sneezing here and there, and making some odd noises. :) Matt quickly was drawn to her because Abigial was (then) more fussy and liked being held by mom. Originally she was quiet and now she is the noisemaker of the family. She is a very good eater (eating anything from 4-6 ounces), very good sleeper (sleeping anywhere from 6-8 hours), but oh-so crabby sometimes (crying anywhere from 1-3 hours)!!!

Anna Mae has not yet blessed us with a cute smile, but she makes the prettiest coo's and she sneezes so darling! She always ends her sneezing sessions with a big "Ahhh." When she fusses, she starts out so quietly and we think it will be an easy soothe, but then she really works herself up to the point of where nothing is comforting to her. She is typically very alert and loves to be held all the time. Right now that is the only way to put her to sleep... close cuddling and easy rocking.

Anna seems much longer than Abigial, and we think she is putting on weight a little more quickly than her little sister since she consumes more formula during a feeding. She has this pretty strawberry blonde hair currently, and we look forward to knowing if her pretty baby blue eyes will stay baby blue! Anna Mae is often compared to looking like her mommy.... just about everyone has made that comment. She seems to have more Jackson than Nagode in her!

We love you little girl :D
