Hello Tompkins family! We have really been enjoying the updates from David and Marisa and Jack and Christina. It's so fun to see pictures of our beautiful nieces and see them grow up right before our eyes. We cannot wait to see them in action at Sanibel! It's going to be such a great party.
We have a ton of pictures (as always) from the last month but here are some highlights to show you all what we have been up to. Here is Cecilia making me proud with her soccer skills:
Cecilia's 4 month check up went very well. She now weighs over 16 lbs. and her height and weight are both in the 75th percentile. Personally I think they measured her a little shorter than she actually is, but oh well.
She loves bathtime. She wraps her legs around things now, as you can see.
Some pictures of Cecilia with her cousins who live nearby. With Sheila (13 months old):
And Simon (17 months). I don't know why this picture came in sideways. Simon loves Cecilia SO much, he is so sweet to her.
Cecilia is working on sitting up by herself, but she tends to fall over a lot. She does, however, try to play it cool and act as if she meant to do that. She just sorta casually plays it off as if she prefers the fallen-over position. I tried to catch it on camera:
See, she just wanted to rest her head!
Sitting up:
But then decided to rest on her Boppy.
She is almost better at grabbing her toys with her toes rather than her hands. I think it's so adorable:
We call them her monkey toes, she could swing from tree branches with them:
Another toe-grabbing picture. This one makes me laugh because she was telling her toys a sad story.
Making the bed with Mommy:
She looked so cute in her Sunday Mass outfit but she did not want to smile for the camera. Perhaps she does get tired of getting her picture taken sometimes:
Can you tell Ryan picked out this onesie?
Now for the biggest update of all: our new TV! Ryan has been researching for a while now (ever since our previous TV became self-aware and starting spontaneously turning on and off on) and we found a sale we could not resist. Here is one happy Ryan when we arrived home from the store:
The finished product:
Cecilia helping Daddy set up the settings:
Cecilia hanging out with Daddy while he watches a movie on the new TV:
Later on that night Ryan was playing with Cecilia in the other room, and at one point I heard Ryan start to scream like a little girl and so I rushed in. This is what I found:
As you can see Cecilia is a handful and she keeps us busy and very happy. It is now time for me to put her to bed so I better wrap this up. We cannot wait to see you all in Sanibel in just a few months!! Much love, Ryan, Mary and Cecilia.

Oh my goodness, she is such a cutie pie!!!! 16 lbs! Wow! Mary, that's incredible! She is almost as big as Sofia!! lol. Cecilia is so beautiful and I love all the pictures, especially the ones of her toes! We are so excited for Sanibel! We love you guys!
Those are great pictures! Cecilia is adorable and is such a happy baby. We already knew Isabella would be the runt of the pack, she only weighs maybe a lb more than Cecilia! I can't wait to see the 3 of them together again.
