About Me

Lots to Celebrate

Since my last post (where I was getting "comfortable" with the idea of sitting), I've decided sitting up with the rest of you beats tummy time. Like, by a lot. So, that's my preferred position these days. Plus, it gets me closer to eye level with Henry...lord knows I need to keep him in my sights at all times.

Exhibit A:

In case you can't tell, that is a racecar he's trying to feed me.
 
Of course I prefer to be looking DOWN on him whenever possible (slight advantage). What...you never have a bad hair day? I had just woken up!


I've been REALLY loving my baths. I don't know why you people limit these things to only one a day...if I had my way, I'd enjoy a bath 3 times a day at least!




I've also met some fun characters:

This is Max. AKA - The Big German

This fuzzy guy goes by the name Elmo.

Oh, did I mention I'm now taking my milk via bottle? Yeah, I decided it was time.


We got to celebrate my Great Grandpa Eddies 90th birthday - which was amazing. Unfortunately, the birthday boy was pretty busy (and I may or may not have napped through half the party), so I didn't get a picture with him, but did grab a couple of pre-party shots with my main lady.




I'm slowly starting to get used to the colder weather. Being a summer baby, the chill in the air is new to me...but I'm loving the accessories!

Cable knit hat with flowers? Check.

Rabbit booties? Check.
I'm sure there are more fall/winter accessories in my future, and that's a reason in itself to celebrate! Don't worry - I'll share pics when I can :-)
 
Time to turn in now - this lady needs her beauty sleep. Will check in again soon!


Summertime Fun

This summer has absolutely FLOWN by, and it's been a doozy! Lots of firsts and memory-making events. Too many to list, of course, I've only been alive for 4 months...so still getting situated, but I'm making myself right at home.


Something I LOVE to do is roll over...exactly 5 seconds after mommy puts me down and walks away. However, if she puts me down on my belly, I put up quite the fit. Feels too much like work. I've heard her call it "tummy time", but I react as if it's some sort of KGB torture. BUT, if I flop over onto my belly on my own, I'll stay there all day. At least until I get tired. Then we're back to the aforementioned fit...




Sometimes I have company...


I've also spent quite a bit of time boating. Turns out, I'm a natural bathing beauty...Sun's out, guns out, RIGHT?





My brother is quite the entertainer, and entertain me he does. Daily.

Comparing feet sizes...

Play me a song, Piano Man!
I've been practicing my sitting as well. Seems like a pretty essential skill to have around here if I'm going to be heard. It's not always fun, but might as well make the best of it! (AKA - be adorable while I'm doing it!)


Another fun past time of mine is making mommy get creative with me if she wants to get anything done. Here, we were working together to clean the kitchen floor. We're quite the team!


Loving every day I get to spend getting to know these characters that are my family. They're the best!
