2 Months...What?!?

She's 2 months old now. We are having so much fun together. She is staying awake more in the daytime, which makes it hard to get anywork done, but she smiles so much now and has started really "talking"to us. She met a new friend last Sunday. One of my friends from church delivered her baby boy last Saturday night. He is so cute! Work is going well. I'm getting about 3 hours a day in. Sometimes I wish I could get a little more done, but I wouldn't give up working at home for anything right now. I mentioned to Jesse the idea of sticking with this for a while rather than teaching next year. I have been going back and forth on it a lot, but I love staying here with her so much. I'm leaning toward just keeping my sub license current and doing that here and there.

Yeah, those jeans are 3-6 month size. She really is growing fast. As of Monday she is 12 lbs. 8 oz. We go to the doctor next Monday for her 2 month check-up. I'm nervous for her for shots.









She has outgrown her baby bath tub. We would put it in the kitchen sink and fill it up a little bit, but the last time I did she kicked water out all over the kitchen floor. I had put ground oats in the bath, and Abe would wait for her to kick so he could lick the spots up off the floor. Anyway, we had to go buy this gigantic plastic baby tub that goes in shower. It takes up a lot of room, but since we don't have a regular bathtub this was about our only option.



We have been using the shower sprayer to rinse her off. It is so funny. I think she really likes it, but she is always surprised at first.







Abel is becoming more fond of her now. I am pretty sure he still wishes she was never born, but we're getting there.





We got to go to a Rockies game last weekend. The traffic there was so bad that we didn't make it until the 5th, but it was still fun.
















It was fan appreciation night so there was a firework show after the game. It was amazing, probably one of the best shows I've ever been to! And it just happened to put her to sleep somehow which was icing on the cake ( :

she's too precious. I can't believe how big she looks. So great to finally talk to you today...I need to be MUCH better about making it routine. Don't blame you one bit for wanting to figure out something for staying at home...good call. Love you!

She is a little doll! Where did you get all your cute headbands? I want to load up on those since there is a good chance our baby girl will be bald for the first 6 months! :)

What do you think about meeting halfway to get together and watch Nights in Rodanthe? Luke would HATE that movie...there's just not anyone here that would remotely match your partnership potential for chick flicks. Salt Lake? Boise?

She's just so pretty! I still can't wait to see her with her eyes open in person! :)
It was great seeing you today... we need to make a plan to hang out! We're kinda homebodies.
We had to do the whole rigged bathtub for Gavin at the old house. We had that ducky one... now it's hanging up in the kids' bathroom. Emme's fascinated by it. Those are great memories!
