9 Weeks

Well we had a busy week again! Sunday was our first Father's Day so we celebrated with my very first Mets game! Daddy was able to snag some really great seats right behind home plate with access to a private lounge and everything! We sat near J.Lo and Marc Anthony, who were admiring me from afar - I'm so cute that even celebrities want to meet me...

In other news, I had my 2 month checkup with Dr.Panza - happy to report that I'm now a whopping 10 lbs 7 oz! That means I went from the 10th percentile to the 50th for weight - Mommy's been doing a great job of fattening me up. I'm 21 " tall and my head circumference is 15" - both 25th percentile. I also got my first shots at this appointment - 3 of them! But I was a trooper and only cried for a minute.

8 Weeks

Yesterday was my 8 week birthday! Daddy got a new camera for Fathers Day (early present) and has been taking pictures like crazy - just when I thought I couldn't possibly be photographed any more! I'm starting to smile more and make funny faces because I know how much my parents love it. I am also playing more, I especially love my Baby Einstein activity gym - the sun mesmerizes me with its colors and tunes.

On Saturday we went to David's house for a BBQ, and I met more friends of Mommy and Daddy's from PSU. On Sunday I went to church for the first time, and was a very good girl! I especially like the music, and I even liked it in Mommy's belly!

On Tuesday we went to Hoboken to spend the day with Sierra and her mommy Cheryl. We went to baby yoga which was lots of fun! I want Mommy to take me to yoga more often now. On Wednesday Grandma and Great Aunt Carol came for a visit, we went for a walk through the park and I spent the rest of the day eating and sleeping.

7 Weeks

Another busy week of meeting people! This weekend I met my Aunt Laura and cousins Jack and Joe, and I got to see Grammy and Opa again. On Sunday I met Eileen, another one of mommy and daddy's friends who is pregnant - I was good practice for her. Then that night we went to my first Irish pub - I was a good girl while mommy and daddy had a much-needed date. On Tuesday I met a new friend Scarlett who is 2 weeks younger than me, and the first baby I've met who is actually smaller than me! On Wednesday mommy and I went to Rockin Joe's again in town to meet up with David and his mommy, and another new friend Eli and his mommy.

I'm starting to act like a real baby now! I'm able to smile and coo, and I now prefer my arms to be free of the swaddle. My hair is still light brown with reddish highlights, and my eyes are becoming a pretty grey color with some brown flecks. I just started wearing size 1 diapers and I'm not quite yet sleeping through the night - unless 4 hours counts as 'the night'??

6 Weeks

Well it's official - I'm 6 weeks old! That means Mommy can take me places like the grocery store, Babies R Us, and church. We had a busy week - Grandma and Grandpa stayed over this weekend to watch me while Mommy and Daddy went to their friends' (Cori and Tyler) wedding. Then on Sunday my parents' friends all came over to meet me, including my San Diego friend Ellie (4 months old) and her parents.

On Tuesday I went to the doctor for my diaper rash, he gave me a prescription ointment so hopefully that will clear it up. While we were there I also got weighed - 8 lb 14 oz!

Wednesday was my 6 week birthday. To celebrate, Mommy and I went to lunch in town with my new friend Sierra (who is 1 week older than me) and her mommy Cheryl and David (who is 1 month older than me) and his mommy Lauren.

In 6 weeks I've come a long way and my parents are very proud. The other night I went 5 hours between feedings, I'm about to outgrow my first set of onesies and am almost ready for size 1 diapers! Life is good...
