What I Love About You...13 Weeks

13 Weeks...
I am actually getting this posted the right day this week!

I Love...

-that I finally got a picture of us. I'm usually the one behind the camera so there aren't that many pictures of you and me. I'm going to try to get better at that!

-how you sleep with your mouth open just like your Mommy! ;)

-how sweet you look when you sleep. I just love it when you hold your hands together like you did in the picture below. You do it all the time!

-to watch you play with your mobile. You really enjoy it some times and then other times you don't want anything to do with it and I never know what you are going to think until I lay you down.

-your new super-cute outfit your Nonna got you!

-your new position your Daddy put you in to sit you up all on your own. He never runs out of ideas!

-how you enjoyed your Bumbo today. You are getting bigger and better at sitting in it.

-watching you try to grab and hold on to your toys on your playmat. It's so much fun!

-watching you play with your Daddy. You were really enjoying him doing this on this day. (Sorry the video is the wrong way. I use my still camera to take the videos and sometimes I forget to not turn the camera like a portrait oriented picture.)

What I Love About You...12 Weeks

12 Weeks...you are so big!

October 22, 2009

I love...

-how much fun we had when your Nonna visited! We miss you so much!!!

-snuggling with you and watching you as you sleep so sweetly on me! I just love it when you sleep on me!

-how you just love your new mobile! Here's a video of you enjoying it. You love to talk and kick your arms and legs all around. It's so fun to watch you!

-how you love to "stand" up. Your legs are so strong and you are so tall!

-seeing you sit all by your lonesome (even though it doesn't take long for you to fall over).

-how your Daddy loves to try you out in your new toys even though you usually aren't quite ready for them!

-how you are really loving your toys these days. Here you are just fixated on your toy on your playmat that your Aunt Sue & Uncle Ken gave you.

-watching you grab onto your toys. I can see you delibrately trying to get them now. It's so neat to see you advancing in your motor skills. You are getting so big!

-how you enjoy your carseat and sleep SO well in it! It is such a blessing that I can let you nap in it while I get some errands done! I also love how you look with your sweet blankets that we put on you now that it has gotten cold!

-to see you in your new position Daddy likes to put you in. He always thinks of VERY interesting positions to put you in!

-your beautiful, blue eyes! They are so gorgeous!

-watching you "sit" by your Daddy on the couch. It wasn't long this day before you started turning in towards him looking for your food. It was so cute!

-to watch you turn and move your body around. This day, you started on your back and almost immediately turned to your side and then skooted yourself 90 degrees around. I can't believe it! If you could just figure out what to do with your arm, you would already have turned completely over!

What I Love About You...11 Weeks

11 Weeks!

I Love...

-to watch you play with and grasp your toys on your playmat. You are so cute!

-how you are enjoying your hands now. You are so cute when you bring them to your face and play with them. Of course, it has just increased your "slobber mania"! We call you the "slobber monster"!

-to watch you sleeping. This is you in one of your new Aden & Anais wraps!

-how you stretch your gowns out when we pull them all the way down over your feet. It's just so funny!

-how cute you look with your blanket on you now that it has gotten cold here. You really love it and always smile when I start to lay it on you in your carrier!

-how you make sucking motions in your sleep. It's just so cute!

-to watch you smile at me!

-to watch you smile at your Daddy! You really enjoy him and it makes me so happy to see you two together!

-to watch you play on your changing table and to also play with you. You just love it! It's so funny!

This is how we found you on Tuesday. You had worked your swaddle up over your face. You really scared me, but it apparently didn't faze you in the least.

This is one of Daddy's recently discovered positions for you.

This one is for David's parents. Caroline is watching a DVD they gave her.

Such a cutie!

Here is just a fun video for all!

Caroline's First Bath! ~ 10/6/09

Caroline finally got to have her first bath! Her cord fell off on Saturday, October 3rd and the doctor told us to wait a few days for her bath so she got it on the 6th. She screamed through her first and second baths, but by her third, she was enjoying it. I really enjoy giving her her baths and she is starting to enjoy them more and more! Here are a few pictures. She is so cute!
