Friends Forever

Naptime with Dad

"Cathy" and me

So, I have been hanging out with my new friend "Cathy" since around Christmas. I like to hold her, snuggle next to her when I am asleep, and even kiss her! When I hear Cathy's music, she helps me to stop crying. I think we are going to be friends for a long time and mom and dad know that she must travel with us everywhere (even if it is just to go to the store)! and... I like snuggling with dad too =)

Winter has arrived!

Why do I need a bib?

Stayin' cozy

So, even though I live in Alabama I guess I have to get used to some cold temperatures. Our low temperature for tonight is in the 20s which is quite cold for this part of the state. I have a little bit of a cough and some congestion thanks to ever changing weather (it was 75 degrees only a couple of days ago!). Tonight I had my first cereal from a spoon, but I still enjoyed my bottle from dad.

mmm mmm good

I was four months old yesterday! and I'm still starting to taste new foods and explore. It was my New Year's Resolution to sleep in my own bed like a big girl, but the past few nights I have been missing mom and dad and they just can't stand to hear me cry in there alone... so... I guess you could say I'm still working on that =) Uncle Bini gave me a dvd for Christmas that I have been watching because it has lots of pictures of my favorite animals. That's all for now!

Merry Christmas morning!

my best friends

Wow - it has been too long since my last posting! Mom and Dad were sick for a few days, so I understand that they didn't have lots of time to tell you about what I've been doing. So, here it goes. My very first Christmas was amazing. I got to spend time with mom's friends, Mamaw and Paw, all of my aunts and uncles, and my Great Mamaw Jean. I must have been good for the past three months because I got lots of "benjamins" to put in my savings account; I also received some very cool big girl toys. I even participated in a Christmas Eve candlelight service where I showed my enthusiasm by chuckling during all of the Christmas carols. It's the most wonderful time of the year! and boy am I tired =). I'm resting up though because I'm headed to Grandma and Grandpa's house for a New Year's celebration.

Santa Came Early!

Even though Christmas is a couple more weeks away, Dad showed up with a gift from Santa already. I love sitting up like a big girl in my Bumbo chair - look at me!

Big Girl

I'm officially a big girl now! I can wear my 3-month old clothes and hold onto my toys all by myself. This past week was my first full week at day care, and we found out that I can now eat about 6 ounces of milk at a time... so I've graduated to the big bottles now! I love my new teachers at day care, especially Ms. Odessa who feeds me.
