2 months

I have passed the 2 month mark! Mommy and Ella took me to see Dr. Delucca and he said that I am doing great. I am 12lbs 7oz (90%) and 23 inches tall (75%.)

Mommy and Daddy say that I am a pretty easy baby. This is my typical schedule these days.

I go to sleep at around 8 p.m. I wake up around 4-6 a.m. to eat then sometimes I like to go right back down and other times I am ready to play for about an hour then it's back to sleep for me.

I eat every couple hours and nap on and off throughout the day. I will take a really long nap if Mom puts me in the carrier or if she lets me sleep on my tummy (don't freak out she only lets me do this during the day when she can keep a close eye on me.)

I cry when it am ready to eat, want to sleep, or have a dirty diaper.

I smile a lot especially when I wake up from a good nap or when Daddy comes home from work. I am a total Daddy's girl!

I let my Mommy and Daddy know when I am ready for my nightly bath and then again when I am ready to be swaddled at before each night.

I enjoy a little bouncing and then it's off to bed for me. My record so far is 10 hours.

Summer

Koo...Ooo...Mmm

Here are some photos from my recent adventures. We hiked with my aunt, uncle, and cousin and went to Sedona's Slide Rock. It was very fun!

Site Seeing

My cousin Brody and his mommy and daddy came to visit us last week. We got to take lots of adventures with each other:

We hiked Pinnacle Peak.

We went to Sedona.


We went to Slide Rock.

We played with blocks.

It was a great visit. Thanks for coming out!

Thumbs Up!

On Monday, I went to Shea Hospital to get an ultrasound on my hips (I guess my hips where clicking at the hospital when the pediatrician was checking me out). The great news is that my hips like great so no brace for me!

Today, I get to head over to the airport to pick up my Uncle Cory, Aunt Melissa, and Brody. I am so excited to get to meet them. It is so special that my family has made the effort to come out to Arizona to meet me! Thanks Oma, Papa, Aunt Jen, Aunt Erin, Grandma Dede, and Grandpa Chuck.

Family

We took my little sister swimming last week. It was the most she had been in the pool. I loved having her there with me. Our whole family got to swim together!

Some of my favorite foods include a good hot dog (or as Dad affectionately refers: tube steak). We had to make a stop at Costco and enjoyed a fine all-beef link.

We are expecting our last round of visitors. I love having people come and visit us! It is so energizing for me to have people around especially when they give me a lot of attention. Today we are going to go to the airport to pick up Uncle Cory, Aunt Melissa, and Brody! I am so excited to have them stay with us!

Getting to know my family

Today marks six weeks! So far I have enjoyed my time on earth. My daddy and mommy say that I am growing really fast.

I love having a big sis, but I let Ella know when I've had enough. I am not quite sure what she is doing to me here.


My favorite part of the day is bath time! I love to kick my legs in the warm water. The other day I made tub time really exciting by going number 1&2!


I love my mommy and...


my daddy!

Summer Fun

Summer has been going by so fast!!! Not to mention the fact that it's been incredible (this is my favorite word right now). Since it is so hot we do most of our outdoor activities before 9:30am. After that we find things to do inside. I have been having fun getting to take a baths with Olivia. Below is my Alfalfa do.


One of my adult friends, Daisy, picked this cool outfit up on her trip to India. I can really shake it in this attire.


I love being a big sister!
