First Mass!

Today was our first adventure as a family of five. Of course, having my mom with us gave us a great safety cushion in case there was a problem. But fortunately, everyone was on their best behavior. The boys asked a few times for me to put Molly in her car seat instead of holding her, but they settled for piling on my lap next to her.

Molly slept for almost the whole Mass and despite having a very noisy explosive diaper, managed to time it while music was playing, sparing her from tarnishing her lady-like image.

The boys got donuts, and we were greeted by many well-wishes from other parishioners congratulating us on our new addition.

It was a great experience, and we know not all Masses will go this smoothly for us, at least we've got one "win" under our belt!
