When Will It Slow Down?

This week has been a tiring one. I went to the doctor on Monday for my 2 month check-up. I have really been growing. I now weigh 10 lbs 13 oz, which is in the 50% percentile and 3 pounds more than when I was born. I am 23 1/4 inches (80%) and my head is 15 3/4 inches (75%). I also got 4 shots, needless to say I cried and have been a little crabby this week. On Wednesday I went to the portrait studio and had my pictures taken. It sure was fun. I love the camera! Mommy is going to try to post some of the pictures later, so keep an eye out for them. Mommy's birthday was yesterday and she went to the spa. I got to spend time with Erica and then Grandpa when she went out to dinner with Aunt Kelly who is getting ready for her wedding Saturday. Finally, I just wanted to say thanks to Granny Hewett for my warm-up suit. Don't I look cute? Just like the jacket says...

I Have Discovered My Playmat

Now that I am two months old I like to play and interact more. I get to do a lot of that on my playmat. I like to watch the big star that lights up and plays music - it almost puts me in a trance. I even try to reach out for things that hang down. Of course I really like it when daddy makes voices for all the characters, especially Pooty Bird!

Girls Day!

All the girls got together for a bridal tea for Aunt Kelly and left me with daddy, uncle Scott and grandpa. I did get to spend a little time with Aunt Kelly and her niece Ally who loved patting my back. She has a lot of experience with baby dolls! I also wore the outfit Uncle Jack and Aunt Joy got me for the 4th of July. I'm an All-American baby!

A Swing of My Own

I loved Noah's swing so much that mommy and daddy got me one of my own. Grandpa and daddy put it together for me since I hadn't slept all day and it was getting late. Unfortunately, it wasn't the magic bullet they hoped it would be. Guess I was just excited from the holiday weekend and couldn't go to sleep!

4th of July Goes Bust

My first Fourth of July - all dressed up and no where to go. I had a really cute outfit but it rained all morning so I couldn't go to the parade and decided to nap with mommy instead. I did discover that I love Noah's swing and the only fireworks I saw were on TV. At least we were a patriotic family!

Mr. Ben Comes to Town

The holiday weekend got started early on Wednesday when Jeff, Erica and Ben came by to visit. It was my first time meeting them and you can see I was a little uncertain of Mr. Ben. He didn't seem that interested in me - he preferred mommy's cell phone. Jeff took a minute to hold me in between blackberry emails. I think seeing me might have given Erica the baby fever again, but with a face like mine - who can blame her?

Tennessee - Here I Come!

So I went to Tennessee last week to visit Granny & Poppa. Unfortunately, mommy forgot to charge the camera so we only have these two pictures from the car right after we left and a new cute one of me sleeping. This was my longest trip in the car yet and I survived. It was much better on the way back though! I got to meet two of my great aunts and many friends of mommy at Stacy & Rick's Engagement Party. Hopefully Granny will send some more pictures so I can show you. I even met Isaac Kelch, the son of mommy's friends Brian and Heather. Watch out Noah - there is another man in my life!
