Rolling Over

How could I have forgotten to tell you all about the most exciting part of my very first Thanksgiving Day?! While I was getting my diaper changed I was really interested in the movie that was playing on the t.v. and I wanted to watch too. I decided it would be the perfect opportunity to practice a new skill, turning over from my back to my front. I've already been able to turn over from my tummy to my back, so I thought it would be good to try it a different way. Sure enough, I did it!! Not just once, but THREE times! It must have been really exciting for everyone watching because they cheered me on the entire time. I was so proud of myself. Of course, Mommy and Daddy got it all on video so you could see my hard work.

My First Thanksgiving

Today was Thanksgiving Day, my very first, and what a fun day it has been! My Papa Roly and Daniel are here and I am getting so much attention! This morning I woke up to Daddy, Mommy and Papa all singing to me. I love being sung to when I wake up. After my breakfast I got to have some play time downstairs with Daddy and Papa. While I took a nap everyone else was busy in the kitchen preparing a feast. When it was all done it looked delicious! I didn't have any, but I heard all about it. We had such a wonderful day all together and we have so much to be thankful for!

My Papa and Me

Yesterday was a hard day for me with my visit to the doctor BUT when I woke up from my nap my Papa Roly and Daniel were here! I was so excited to see them both. It's so fun to have Papa Roly here to sing to me when I wake up and change my diapers and play with me. Today was a beautiful day at our house so Papa, Mommy and I took advantage of the sunshine and went for a walk down to the mall. Papa found two beautiful dresses for me to wear at Christmas time, I can't wait! We had such a nice walk before heading back home so I could take a nap. I'm such a lucky girl :)

I am Four Months Today!

Today I turn four months old. The day began the way it usually does. I was excited when I woke up to Mommy and Daddy singing to me. Daddy changed my diaper and put on a new outfit, then I got to eat. After I eat, I usually get to take a morning nap. Today, was different. Today I had to go to the doctor. The past couple of times I've visited the doctor haven't been too bad but today I had to get shots. I don't like shots, they hurt. The doctor was very nice. She weighed and measured me and I'm happy to report that I weight 12 lbs. 4 oz. and I am 24 3/4 in. long. After that she made me do some silly exercises and asked Mommy and Daddy lots of questions. The shots came at the end. It hurt and I cried, but Mommy and Daddy said I did so well. I was really happy when it was all over and I got to be home again with Mommy. I've spent the rest of the day resting...I was exhausted!! I'm glad it will be awhile before I have to do that again.

Daddy, I have something to tell you...

My Daddy has to be at work all day so he, unfortunately, misses out on lots of things I do during the day. I always get so excited when he gets home in the evening so that I can tell him all about the day Mommy and I had. I thought today I would share with you what I did. You might have to shower off afterward though..

Fall is FUN!

Today was such a fun day with Mommy! It was overcast and cloudy, but no rain and almost 60 degrees! Mommy thought it would be a good day to spend as much time outside as possible, so that's what we did. First, we took a walk down the street to Starbucks. Mommy likes to get a hot drink there sometimes. I like to go there because everyone looks at me and tells Mommy how cute I am! Today was no exception. We then headed over to the mall so Mommy could do some reading at the bookstore. While she read I took the opportunity to look around at all the people and all the books! I love books! It was very windy when we walked home and so fun to watch the leaves blow around and feel the breeze on my cheeks. I was glad to be wearing a hat and a warm outfit. After my nap Mommy and I headed outside once again. We thought we'd surprise Daddy and rake the leaves in the front yard. I watched Mommy rake and cheered her on from the stroller while I played with my toys. Mommy thought I did such a great job being patient. Once she got the leaves raked into piles she let me play in one of the piles for a few minutes, such fun! By that time I was tired out so Mommy put me to bed. She told me when I wake up Daddy will be home and we'll get to watch more football....what a great day!

I'm Happy Today!

For the past week I haven't been feeling very well. I've had a cough and a stuffy nose that just won't go away, but I won't let that get me down! I'm still as happy as ever, especially when I have both Mommy and Daddy's undivided attention. The other night we were all sitting on the couch playing. We had so much fun Daddy decided it would be a great idea to video tape Mommy and me being so silly. I love being silly! I hope you like it!
