Here are some pics from Isaac's Baptism. His party outfit is courtesy of Godmother Marissa. Check out his converse!

first semester

We had a horse show last month that was ALOT of work to run, but we had a good time. Go Berry! Last night we had our semi-formal dance. It was packed! This morning our hall, Third West Mary, got together to make ginger bread houses. Kayla and I made one together and ate lots more icing than we should have :D

3 months

Hey everybody!

Today I'm 3 months old. I'm really enjoying life!

I'm now eating 4 times a day, every 4 hours while I'm awake. I go to sleep at 10pm and wake up about 9am. I'm awake much more throughout the day, just napping a few hours.

I can hold my head up pretty well and I'm actually liking tummy time!

I've been going to physical therapy since my last post. I have something called torticollis. It means I prefer to turn my head to the left which has caused the muscles on the left side of my neck to become very tight now making it difficult for me to turn my head to the right. Since I favor my left side, the back of my head on that side has become flat too. PT sessions and stretching at home has really been helping. It's hard work but I tough it out.

I'm smiling and talking a lot these days. I enjoy looking at my hands and I'm quite certain I control when they move. I've discovered the baby in the mirror always looking at me is ME!
What a ham!

Halloween Fun!

2 months old!!!

Hi family,

Today I'm 2 months old! I continue to be an excellent eater! I eat between every 3 1/2 and 4 hours.

I've realized being awake is actually fun, so I'm usually up for 6-8 hours a day. I graduated to my crib about 2 weeks ago. The past 9 nights I've slept from 10pm until 6am. This morning, Mommy actually woke me up at 7!

I'm smiling some and even cooing. Occasionally, I even let out a little scream.

I like my binky on and off, more off though, especially since I've found my hands and enjoy putting them in my mouth.

I enjoy bath time and watching big sister Evelyn play. She makes me smile. Going for rides in the stroller is super fun too!

Today, we went to Colleen & Efi's and Mommy, Daddy & Evelyn went swimming in their new pool. I opted to lounge poolside in the rocking chair. Daddy has the next 2 weeks off. Our plans include going to the pumpkin patch, zoo, park, on walks and lots of relaxing.

As you can see, the photo shoot made me sleepy. The pic below was taken the other day. We are showing our Halloween spirit!

I love you...

6 Months old

Hi to everybody. I am 6 months old and my mom is on time. I hope that everybody is doing good. I am getting bigger everyday. I can also sit up by my self but if I reach for anything then I fall over. I can roll over and when I am on my belly I really just want to go, but I do not know how. My mommy tells me that I will start to crawl soon. When I am on my back I like to put my toes in my mouth. I like to eat my cereal at breakfast and before bed. I heard mommy and daddy talking that I may start my veggies tonight for supper. I do not know what I think about that yet. I am talking a lot. I also take naps now. My mommy is happy about that. I sleep about 8 hours at night and take 2-3 naps at school. the naps are about 1-2 hours long. I am going to start a my school (daycare) on Oct 18th. The new school is close to mommy's work. So, I will be able to see her on her lunch hour. I look forward to seeing everybody at Christmas time at Isaac and Evelyn's grandparents house house I think. Isaac I hope that we can play together soon. Talk to you all later.

Love Angela, Jeremiah, and Hunter

Hi,

Sorry that it has been so long. Hunter is doing great and getting big. I got a new job as a diabetes nurse educator and Jeremiah has been working lots of hours. Hunter sitting up with little help. He is sleeping from about 9pm till 6am. He still takes about 4 20 minute naps during the day. He like school (daycare). At school he takes 1 2.5 hour nap and 1 45 minute nap. I wish that he would sleep at home. He started to eat cereal at 5 months and he really likes it. He also loves bath time. He can roll over and move around. His hair still has a reddish tint and his eyes are bright blue. He is about 17 pounds and 26.5 inches long. We go to the doctor in a couple of weeks. It is hard to get a picture of his with a smile on his face, because he could be smiling and as soon as he sees the camera the smile is gone. I will try to be better and getting more pictures posted.
