Hmmmmm...

To Scream...or Not To Scream??? That is the question... I'm no big fan of my car seat, so I usually scream about it until I'm so exhausted I finally fall asleep. But of course this doesn't last long because I usually only sleep until the next stop and then I wake up again. Then I go in the store with Mommy and come back out...and scream again until I fall asleep. But most of the time it ends up just being from one place to another that I scream. Mommy and Daddy are praying I figure out this car seat thing soon...but I think I've already got it figured out...don't I??

Funny things about me...

*I have to scream to fall asleep during the day...but at night...I don't fuss at all.
*I have to scream to poop if its after 5pm...but during the day...I don't make a peep.

*I can push myself up on my hands and pull my head up to see my mobile while on my tummy.

*I can push my tushie up in the air with my feet...but that just scrapes my face on the floor.
*My best friend is the birdie on the wall above my changing table...we smile at each other.
*I have made Mommy take my whole car seat apart TWICE already because I...well...exploded in it.
*I love to be swaddled...but only for night time...not nap time.
*I'm really good with that whole bottle thing now...I don't let it dribble down my chin anymore.
*I have Daddy's feet.
*I have Nanna's hands.
*Uncle Colin says I have a mullet...but I don't know what that is yet.
*I like to see things...so don't hold me facing you...I'll scream.
*I make so much noise at night when I sleep...Mommy won't share a room with me on trips anymore.
*I hate to have my face wiped.
*I don't mind taking showers...but dress me quick or I'll scream!
*I don't like dairy, beef, tomatoes, fries, broccoli, chips, onions, or anything else greasy.
*I sleep 11-12 hours per night and I only nap about 3 hours during the day.
*I weighed 10lbs, 15oz and was 23.5 inches tall on June 13. That puts me in the 75th percentile for height and 50th for weight.
*I love my Mommy and Daddy.

Just call me "Scooter"...

I may be young...and I may be small...but boy can I scoot!! Mommy took this picture of me because if you look carefully...you'll see that I scooted part way out of my swaddle, out from under my blankie and all the way from one end of my crib to the other. No really good reason why...I just did. And then I got frustrated and started to cry because I was bumping my head on the end of the crib. Mommy told Daddy, "that's why we use the bumper". :)

Daddy's First Father's Day!!!

Aren't we cute?? Mommy found these great shirts for us at Cafepress.com and we really like them! We were down in SLO for a friend's graduation and had a nice slow morning before we headed for Woodstock's Pizza (one of Daddy's favorites) and then we hit the road and headed home. We went to Chili's for dinner (Daddy's choice again) where I found the tiles on the table to be quite interesting. :) And Daddy's big present was a BBQ!!! What a special day!!!

Someone turn on the air!!!

I'm not into this "heat wave" thing. Really. I'm not a fan. Get it..."fan". Haha! Okay, but really, the heat is no fun. I'm happiest just like this...my diaper, my binkie, and my chair. Don't hold me...don't touch me...and no, I won't smile. I just want to sleep until its over...wake me up in October. :)

Napa here I come!

Mommy and Daddy went wine tasting...I went napping. This is me crashed out on a chair at St. Supery...their favorite winery. I really tried to be a good girl all day: I slept all the way to Mustards, I slept through lunch, ruined my outfit, took another nap, and then I was awake for a long time in the afternoon looking at all the funny lights in the wineries and smiling at all the people who wanted to see the "beautiful baby". I had a meltdown on the way home, but come on...I was in my car seat most of the day...and you should ask my Daddy and my Mommy how I feel about my car seat...

I'm growing! Honest I am!

I may not look too big...but I really am a big girl! I promise! I'm outgrowing my clothes and my feet are much too big for my little socks now. Aunt Shannon gave me this special outfit and I'm going to be too big for it much too soon! Wonder how big I'll look in Mommy's chair in a few months...

I rolled over!!!

Surprise!!!! Mommy found me on my back when she came to get me after my nap. I'm not sure how I did it...but I started out on my tummy at the start of my nap...and at the end...the scenery was quite different...it was a big white ceiling!!! I'm going to keep trying and see if maybe I can do it the other way too. :)

I have a thumb!!!

And I know how to use it!!! I make quite a bit of noise trying to get a hold of it...but once I've got it, I'm happy camper. :) Mommy took this one during nap time because I sounded so funny on the baby monitor...she had to see what I was up to.

Daddy's little helper...

See...I helped Daddy carry the groceries!!! Too bad he didn't share those cookies with me. :( I think I've already got his sweet tooth...

Testing my lungs...

Yup. This is me...screaming my head off. Not sure what it was about...but Mommy wants me to see it someday so I'll be nice to her later for loving me now when I scream like this...

I did it!!!!

I slept through the night!!! Daddy put me in my crib at 9:45pm and I went right to sleep. Mommy didn't have to get up with me at all during the night and then they had to wake me up at 7:15am to go somewhere. It would have been nice to be able to keep sleeping and see how long I could go...but there's always stuff that has to be done...
