3 Months

Like I said before, October was a fun month. Here are some shots from when Mommy and Daddy took me to the Arboretum. Daddy was very concerned about keeping me out of the sun. Also, we went to dinner at Leah and Jimmy's house for Mommy's birthday. They had an amazing dinner (I just got leftovers!) and we sat outside around the chimnea...so I was able to try out my new hoodie :-) On Halloween night, Mommy and Daddy took me to my first concert! It was David Wilcox doing an accoustic show in a really small room, but I got to where Grandma Janice's ghost costume again and it was really fun!

Daddy's version of 'sun block' ... he's always thinking of me :-)

My new hoodie

I have a new 'lion' attached to my car seat... He startles me sometimes. I'm not sure he can be trusted yet!

I KNOW I don't trust lambchop!

My first concert with Mommy and Daddy.... note how well I've adorned Daddy with slobber (that's my new thing :-p )

What an exhausting month. Mommy's legs are almost as comfy as their bed!

Aunt Mickie and Cousin Peter visit

October was a very exciting month! I turned 3 months old, Mommy had a birthday too, Halloween and pumpkins abound, and best of all: Mickie and Peter visited. Mommy had never met Peter (born 3 weeks before me and TWICE as big!), and Mickie had never been to Dallas. It was sooo much fun. We visited the arboretum and took pictures with pumpkins. Grandma Janice sent me my first Halloween costume too.

Peter and I didn't leave much room in the back seat for big people!

Finally, someone who speaks my language!

I thought hangin' out for pictures with Peter was OK.....

....Until he tried to kiss me! yuck :-p

Casper's got nothin on me!

This pumpkin's in my personal space, think I'll kick it over...

...A little help over here, please!

At the Ft Worth Zoo...maybe Mommy will post some animal pictures later. It was really cool!

Plastic Pants

So, from the very beginning, Mommy and Daddy planned to use cloth diapers. You know, save money and the earth...all that good stuff. Unfortunately, I had such a little (nonexistent) butt, the diapers were more like a toga and the plastic pants gaped around my legs. It took me 3 months to grow into them! So Mommy almost got spoiled by those disposable things. But alas, although the whole getup comes to my armpits (and gives me the girlish figure of a potato), the plastic pants no longer gape. So we DO use old school when we're hanging around the house. Here are some shots of my first "change"..... I think it took Mommy 20 minutes to figure out how to fold and pin them :-)

What?!

I think these restrict my 'Inverted Frog' yoga move.

Almost 3 Months

Well I'm almost 3 months now, and Mom and Dad are finally getting used to me (I think). I'm still WAY easy on them. Sleep is my favorite thing to do, baths are still no big deal, and I've stopped screaming every time I ride in the car :-) I'm growing like a weed, we need to move the straps up on my car seat. And I have the BEST expressions now. I can see what's going on in front of me, and more often than not, I find it shocking!

( You would NOT believe what Mommy's hair looks like!)

The lotion routine...again

2 Months

At 2 months I had my first shots (yuck!) and a bunch more company. Oh - and I weighed 8lbs 9oz

Aunt Cissy, Aunt Julia and Tori came to visit me!

I'm fascinated by all of Tori's hair

Small group's not so dry anymore...It's worth the attention to stay awake :-)

My shots just made me sleepy (oh wait, everything makes me sleepy!). Mom and Dad's bed is still my favorite nap spot!

The Beginning of my Modeling Portfolio!

It's Exhausting being beautiful!

My First Month

I had lots of "1st's" in my first month: first time meeting grandparents, first time meeting aunt Cissy, first small group night, first going away party, first Olympics! ..... somehow I'm the only one who ended up in any of the pictures though, so it's hard to distinguish between the events!

Team Memphis (from our mission trip) got to meet me during the Olympics Opening Ceremonies

More symphony conducting.... practice, practice, practice

Of course, Aunt Cissy treats me like the princess that I am!

I was very popular at my friend Christy's going away party

Small group is a little dry for me, I wish they'd turn the lights down so I can sleep!

All this entertaining is exhausting...my hair looks great though, doesn't it?

Tummy Time

I know one thing for sure: it was NO baby that invented tummy time! I humor Mommy and Daddy with it now, but I've yet to see any adult stick their nose this close to the carpet!

Sometimes I just catch a little catnap when Mommy's not looking :-)
