11w5d- SWIMMING MAKES ME TIRED!

Mommy and Daddy played in the pool with me again today!  I had a lot of fun and love the water!  I played soooo hard that I wore myself out!  Mommy always gives me a bath after I get out of the pool...this time, I took a shower with her.  Daddy had to bring us a towel, so Mommy sat down in the tub and used the removable shower head of water on me to keep me warm....I was soooo comfortable that I fell asleep in the shower!  4 hours later, I was ready to have a bottle and play again!

11w4d-MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND

Spending the holiday playing at home!  Grandma Dason is coming to visit next week!  YAY!

11w3d- DADDY DRESSED ME!

Daddy dressed me and it matches!  My shirt says That's It I'm Calling Grandma!......(By the way, Nevaeh watched the baby reading video again all the way through this morning......so it wasn't a fluke that it caught her attention yesterday. YAY!)

11w2d- WATCH THIS

Remember when we said that Courtney and Mike purchased Your Baby Can Read .....way back when???  Well it finally arrived today!  Courtney put the first video in and put Nevaeh in front of the big TV in her bouncy seat.  She watched the whole thing and didn't seem to be done watching when the video ended about 1/2 hour later, so Courtney put it back on.  Nevaeh watched it twice in a row!!!!  Here's a picture of her first experience with the program.....stay tuned with updates!

11w1d-FUNNY DREAMS?

Nevaeh laughed out loud for the first time, but she was sound asleep!  Wander what she was dreaming about!?....Does that count as her first laugh recorded in a baby book?  Pictured above is Nevaeh out shopping with Mommy and Daddy!

10w5d- POOL TIME!

Nevaeh's first bathing suit!

"I may be in the shade, but I'm still not opening my eyes!"

"Hey, did you just get my hair wet?"

Mommy and Me!

Daddy and Me!

10w4d- PLAYING IS HARD WORK!

HOW CUTE IS THIS?!  SLEEPING ON THE JOB! LOL

10w4d- OSU FAN!

Uncle Joey's family got this cute OSU outfit for Nevaeh!  Now we just need a bow in her hair so everyone knows she is a girl!

2 1/2 MONTHS-BATH TIME

 

I love SKYPE.....I got to watch bath time!  Nevaeh loves the water!!!!! After bath time, I watched Nevaeh take her nighttime bottle and soothe herself to sleep in the boppy with her pacifier.  Courtney and I watched Greys Anatomy on TV (while SKYPING)......Neither of us talked, because we were glued to the TV screen.....Courtney said that SKYPING made her feel like she was home watching TV with me!  We had a wonderful evening!

2 1/2 MONTHS- SUMMER SHOES!

A girl can't have toooo many shoes!  Aren't these summer shoes (size 1) adorable????  Now let's hope they fit when I visit the kids in June!

10w2d- PLAY TIME

Nevaeh is starting to reach for the toys! She is reaching with her left hand, but not sure if it's because she can't figure out how to move her right arm which seems to be tucked between her and the blanket propping her up in the seat....She can sit for a few minutes before tilting to one side or sliding down.....then she gets MAD!  LOL

10w1d- MOMMY AND BABY

10 WEEKS OLD ALREADY!

Nevaeh is 10 weeks old today!  Wow.....I remember posting when Mommy was 10 weeks pregnant with her!  Time flies!!!  Today, I watched Nevaeh (via Skype) play on her Playtime Mat....she is finally grabbing at the toys.....as she grabs, her legs are moving a mile a minute.....toooo cute!

9w5d- MORE FAIR PICTURES

Mommy and Daddy took Nevaeh to her first Fair yesterday!  Here are some pictures of her first rides....

This was the first ride Mommy put Nevaeh on and she looked at Mommy like What are you doing to me! LOL

Riding the Carousel!

Hey....I think Daddy likes the Carousel, too!

Riding with my Mommy!

9w4d- 10 HOURS!

Yes, you read that title correctly!  Our sweet little princess had a bottle at 8pm, went to sleep around 10pm and slept until 6:00am.  Got up for a bottle and only wanted 2 oz. and went back sleep until 9 in her own crib!!!   That's a total of 10 hours between nighttime bottles (Woot!!!)... and Mommy and Daddy are now sleeping in their own room...... Now that's HUGE progress!  She is drinking 6 oz. bottles and burps easier now!  In fact, she knows her bottle....her eyes get real big and she opens her mouth just waiting!!!  Toooo cute!

Here's a picture of Nevaeh's bear that Daddy won for her at her first Fair.  (Maybe that's why she slept sooooo good last night....Mommy and Daddy wore her out during the Fair!)

2 MONTHS-PROFESSIONAL PICTURES

Mommy's favorite!

Look at that bow!

Hey...this feels fuzzy!

 Mini Skirt!

The sun is in my eyes!

I

Hi!

Nap time!

Close up!

These pictures were taken outside and the sun was toooo bright!  Nevaeh had a hard time opening her eyes.....but we still got some CUTE pictures of her! 

9 WEEKS OLD!!

Tummy Time!

For the last couple of weeks, Nevaeh has had a fussy period every evening!  She has whimpers and cries....at least it is not an all out scream fest.....but it is trying on the nerves.  Mommy tries everything to soothe her.  I don't think it is colic.....I think she knows the routine and fights sleep before bedtime.  But once she is asleep....she sleeps for very long stretches at night.  On average 6 hours with some 8 hours here and there.....all in all pretty much through the night and in her own crib!  :-)

8w6d- CAUGHT SLEEPING!

Nevaeh is a good little sleeper!  Here are a few sleeping poses caught with the camera!

 How can this be comfortable????

Comfy on the boppy with the binkie! (This is her first mini skirt! LOL)

8w5d- HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

Courtney,

Happy Mother's Day, Courtney!  I hope you know that I think (I know) you are a wonderful Mother!  I am sooooo very proud of your accomplishments as a daughter, sister, soon to be college graduate, wife and now a new MOM.  You make it look sooooo easy.....when I know it is a balancing act and sometimes flat out survival mode to get through the day.  Nevaeh has a good role model to look up to in the years to come! I love you!

Hugs and Kisses  Mom

8w4d- BIG SMILE

A BIG smile for something mesmerizing!
