My friends

Sometimes Mommy is a dork and calls my toys "friends."

But I do have real friends. Kenady likes to kiss me.


And Jenna and I hang out!

Great Grandma!






This is my Great Grandma Ross (Grandma GG according to my cousin, Katia; I think it's a great name!) and me. I finally got to meet her today and hang out with her and Grandma Ann for awhile. Mommy is not very good at keeping the camera straight while getting me to smile. Oh, well.


And one more picture of me in my cute overalls.

I'm so cute!


This was going to be the picture at the top of my blog for awhile, but Jen made me a cute header. Thanks, Jen! Can't wait to meet you and my future husband, Ian, in July! Oh, and Joe, too. :)
I sat all by myself for awhile today (like 30 seconds). I'm growing so fast! I just can't seem to get off my belly when I roll from my back (Mommy says I'm being lazy- I've done it before!).

Other random pics

Sometimes Mommy puts me on the couch to sleep. She's lucky to get a half-hour nap out of me (other than my long morning one, which has lately been before bed, then I get up at 1am instead of 7am).
Mommy's friend, Jody, gave me my friend, Abby's old exersaucer (she crawls now so doesn't want to play with it anymore). It has lots of fun stuff.


Yesterday we had a picnic at Grandma and Grandpa Olsen's for Memorial Day. Here are some pictures of me with Mommy and Daddy.


Grandma and Grandpa Olsen now have a merry-go-round at the park, and Grandma Ann painted flowers on it with all her grandkids' names. I also got a bee. I'm so special!

4 months old

This is my piggy outfit Mommy got for me at Kohl's. It has a cute butt.
And a matching bib.
It's my first Memorial Day and I'm also celebrating my 4-month birthday. Here are some random factoids about me at this age:
-I wear some 0-3 mos clothes, but mostly 3-6 months now. The pants are the problem- I have a big belly and no butt.
-I get mostly breastmilk to eat, but some formula every day, too. I've also tried a little rice cereal and sometimes Mommy gives me apple-prune juice when I don't poop. I LOVE it.
-I am very smiley and sometimes I laugh, too.
-I roll from my back to front fabulously, but then I get there and can't get off my tummy (though I have rolled from my tummy to back before!) and get frustrated.
-I get really grumpy when I'm tired and usually have to get rocked to sleep. Mommy's trying to break this habit, but I've had a cold, so I've been sleeping in my bouncy seat and my sleep has been out of wack, anyway.
-I love to jump in my Jumperoo
-I am getting good at bringing my toys to my mouth
-I discovered my feet and love to eat them, especially my left. I do it every chance I get.
-I don't really use my plug anymore, but sometimes I'll suck on a Nuk brand one now
-I can sit by myself for a couple seconds if I'm not being a spaz.
-I am a spaz.
-I kick very hard when I'm in my bouncy seat.
-I pretty much never sit still.
-I love attention and I like to fuss when I'm not getting it.

Watch me roll over!

Jump, jump, jump!

This one is very unclear because it's from Mommy's phone, but I think you get the drift: I love to jump!

Yummy feets!

This one is from Mommy's phone, so not as clear:

The last few days

Wednesday:
Thursday:
Friday: No pictures?!? Mommy must have been a slacker that day.

Saturday:
Took a bath and tried on my robe for the first time.
Then we took a family trip to Grandma and Grandpa Olsen's house (well, mostly their yard)
I didn't feel like smiling for the pictures.And just wanted to eat Daddy's finger.He made me go on the bike. I couldn't reach the handle bars (let alone the pedals!).Mommy made me hold the lilacs- they're her favorite flower. I liked how they taste. They gave me a little rash on my face.I was a little confused by this swing.But it was okay.Then I came home, Mommy went to get me clean clothes, and she came back to find me eating my feet for the very first time ever! I'm so talented!
Sunday:
I didn't get a photo shoot in this outfit because I had a major blowout. Yes, it's all over my back as this picture was snapped.So I got another bath and wore this. It's from Auntie Caitlin and says "This is my little black dress."
Monday (today):
This is one of the outfits Mommy's friend, Samia, brought from Brazil. This is me doing my standing trick and starting to fall over.Then sitting!
