Fall Pictures

It has been a busy month. We have had a lot of nice days to play outside in the leaves. Here are a few pics from the month.

Every fall I look forward to seeing our backyard Japenese Maple turn. It is my favorite tree in the fall. Andy likes the red leaves too!


Andy and his active imagination turned Sammy's play gym into a rocket ship. The star on top makes a great steering wheel!

I can't get enough of her smiles!

Our friends Ellie and Will turned one this month. Andy was very disappointed none of the gifts were for him. Thank you Susan for letting him open and play with them anyway!
Sammy in her new (borrowed) spit-up...I mean Bumbo chair. I have to remember to wait after feeding her before putting her in the chair or else she soaks herself in spit-up. Must be the pressure on her stomach. She seems to like her new sitting position, but her head is still a little wobbly.

Sammy is Three Months Old!

The time goes by too fast. I can't believe she is three months old today!

Sammy facts:
-No official weight this month, but I would guess she is close to 10 lbs.

-She smiles all the time!

-She found her hands and loves to suck on her fingers

-She blows adorable little spit bubbles

-She sleeps about 11 hours at night with a quick feeding around 4 am
-She has officially outgrow her newborn size clothes

-She likes to hold on to daddy's finger when he gives her a bottle

-She loves her nightly baths, so do we...she sleeps longer on bath night which is why they are nightly:)

-She enjoys her play gym, swing and bouncy seat
-She likes to sit in her bouncy seat in the middle of the kitchen where she can watch the action (Andy). She gets quite upset if we leave her in the swing in the living room when we are in the kitchen.

-She loves her pacifier, unlike Andy

-She still sleeps in the bouncy seat in her room. We need to work on sleeping in the crib...soon!

-She loves to be swaddles when she sleeps

Smiley

If she's not sleeping, she's smiling:).

Fall



As far as fall weather goes, last weekend was perfect with lots of sun and temps in the 70's. Andy took advantage of the nice weather to play in the leaves. He will be pretty disappointed when that "big pile of leaves" disappears on trash day!
