18 Weeks

OK OK so I've been slacking a little - but I've been very busy! This past Sunday was my baptism! Mommy and Daddy had a nice party for me, and although it might have been the hottest and most humid day of the year, it was a fun day. Here is a picture of me in my gown, which actually was the same one Mommy wore when she was baptised 30 years ago!

You can see all the pictures here!

I had my 4 month doctor's appointment on Monday, all went well. I weigh 13 lbs and 4 oz - still in the 50th percentile. I'm sleeping a lot better (usually from 9 to 5), providing much relief to Mommy. Hopefully I keep it up this weekend, when Daddy will have his first few nights alone with me :)

15 Weeks

This week I turn sweet 16! Weeks, that is...
We had a fun weekend, after running with Mommy yesterday we went to the Cranford pool with David and his parents - David and I both went into the water for the first time! And we both had the same reaction - didn't love it and didn't hate it. I was a little skeptical because the pool is very different than my warm bath water, but as long as I was in Mommy or Daddy's arms, it was OK.

I'm becoming quite the chatterbox lately. My favorite words are Boo, Hi, How, Me, and sometimes I just like to make cute noises that cause my parents to melt (and grab the video camera!)

School is going well, the teachers tell Mommy and Daddy that I'm a very good baby, I talk to them and smile all day long.

I'm also starting to lose my hair!! No one told me this would happen, I hope my Big Girl Hair is red also...

14 Weeks

It's official - I finally slept through the night! Last night I went to bed at 9 and didn't wake up until Mommy came to get me at 5. They are hoping I continue to repeat that pattern now, but only I know for sure...

Daycare is going very well, I'm becoming the teacher's pet. When I'm not sleeping or eating, I am smiling and talking up a storm. I'm sitting in the Bumbo seat more and more, which helps me hold my head up. They tried to put me in the Exersaucer but I did NOT like it one bit - maybe in a few weeks. Also this weekend we did an at-home photoshoot - I'm becoming quite the little ham for the camera!

Today was Daddy's first day back at work, he's feeling better but still not 100%. I hope he gets better soon! While he was home he made another video - back by popular demand, the sequel to the #1 smash hit, Welcome Mia Felicia, I give you: Mia's First Trimester Outside:
