It occurred to me that I might have a touch of “Mom of a Third Child Syndrome” because I have hardly shared any pictures of Penny with you at all.
And now my “baby” is almost two years old!
How did that happen?
Her name is Penelope, but we call her Penny and I think it fits her well.
She has been such a blessing and a great addition to our family. She was truly the easiest baby I have ever come across, which was a very welcome change because neither her brother or her sister were what I would call “easy.” We had no issues at all with nursing or sleeping or health. She just slipped right into our family in her own quiet way.
Penny is very laid back and calm most of the time. (Although as we start to get closer to the Terrible Twos she is getting some sass!)
She ADORES her big brother and sister.
She is getting very independent. I let her do so much more on her own than I would have allowed my first two. (Mostly because my hands are usually full.)
We have an awesome park just a few blocks from the neighborhood where we are building our new house. It’s kind of a hidden gem and we almost always have the whole place to ourselves. Penny loves the slides.
And I love her serious little face. It is hard to get a smile out if this one. She really makes you work for it!









Holy moly does she look like her sister in that last one. That is pure sass in training.
Right?! There are two of them. I am in such big trouble.
To be fair, her sister was pure sass straight out of the womb, no training required. So you’ll still have it easier this time around.
