Thumb sucker?

For a few weeks now, Julia has been trying to get her thumb..on Monday, she finally found it and it was a great thing! She just can't keep it in for very long...will she end up a thumb sucker or not, only time will tell!!

Snow Day!

Julia's 1st snow day...It snowed like this when Griffin was about this age too! Griffin had a blast bundling up and playing in the snow... We even ate a bowl of snow for breakfast! Julia had so many layers on that she could barely move but she didn't cry like Griffin did. It was such a beautiful day but it didn't last very long.

Baby Talk

Julia's personality is really starting to shine! She is so alert and cute right after I feed her, giving us lots of smiles and cooing and some funny babbling! Her face just lights ups when she smiles and it warms my heart!!

Griffin's 6th birthday

Ok...catching up on some of the events from December: Griffin's birthday, Christmas, School choral performance, etc.

Griffin's 6th birthday was a LEGO party here at home. We played several LEGO games and all the boys got LEGO cars to put together. The cake was shaped like LEGO blocks and was a bit hit! Here are some highlight photos from a fun day!

Griffin's 3rd tooth

At our recent dentist visit we discovered that Griffin has 6 loose teeth!! We told him not to lose them all at once or he would be eating Jello and pudding for a while! #3 came out last Friday morning right before breakfast. Griffin came downstairs and said that the tooth was bothering him so he reached into his mouth and pulled it out! Of course, I grabbed the camera to document it and the photo I got is too funny not to share...



I think he is still in shock over pulling it out himself!!

The Littlest Panthers Fan

OK.. so putting the hat on Julia did not bring the Panther's any luck but it's still a funny picture! Better luck next year!!

Julia at 2 months...has it really been 2 months??

I can't believe my baby is already 2 months.. WOW the time has flown by and I have loved every single second.. even those middle of the night feeding and the crying fits! She is just so cute that I seem to overlook all that stuff!

Some 2 month highlights:

1. LOTS of smiling and cooing.. I am not sure if the amount of cooing is an indication of how talkative she will be but she sure is vocal!!

2. Holding her head up...still needs support but she is really working hard!

3. Moved up to size 2 diapers

4. Sleeping through the night in 5 hour stretches...YEAH!!

5. Still trying very hard to get her thumb and loves the pacifier at nap and bedtime.

6. Has discovered the TV..not my choice but Daddy is happy!



We put her in the Bumbo seat this weekend to see if she liked it and she did!!
