Last weekend I took a met lots of people in my family. I met my Uncles, Roger, Mike, and Nate. I also met some of my cousinstrip to MD - my first big trip! I from CA, and Gigi - my great-grandmother. I was also able to welcome Aunt Jackie to the family!
We had such a fantastic time, but it was a little scary being in a new place for the first time. Mommy and Daddy ddid a good job of making me feel safe.
After we got home from MD, I had a lot of things to get caught up on. First, I needed to take my first real bath. I started out in the bath seat (you can see a little bit of it in the picture), but I'm still too tiny for it, so I was sliding all over the place. Mommy decided it would be better just to hold me in the water. What a great idea! While mommy held me, daddy soaped me up and rinsed me off. They did a great job, I smelled great afterwards! I really liked laying in the water. Mommy held my head and let my body float around... she moved me back and forth through the warm water. I couldn't help but kick my legs and smile!
I also had to hang out with daddy for a little bit when we got home. I know it is obvious from this picture - but really I love him SO MUCH! He is so much fun. Whenever I am with him, I can't help but smile. Sometimes I really want to laugh out loud, but I'm not sure how to make the noise just yet, so I just breath really heavy instead. I'm so lucky to have such a COOL dad!
My Godmother, Giovanna, came over this past weekend. She is SO nice, I love her already! She held me and rocked me and talked to me for a really long time. I can't wait until she comes back again! On Mother's Day, Daddy asked Mommy what she wanted to do, and Mommy said she wanted to take a trip to the beach!
So, that is where we spent Mother's Day.
I know Mommy had a great time. Our first stop was the Chowda Hut - Mommy
and Daddy love their soup! After that, we walked to the bay, went to one of Mommy's favorite shops, and t
hen walked along the beach. We had a fantastic, laid back day. I spent most of the time snuggled up sleeping. It didn't matter if I was cuddled with Mommy or Daddy - I was comfy!!
Daddy and I also gave Mommy two books - the new Yarn Harlot book and Sarah Dallas Knitting. She loves both of them! Daddy also gave Mommy a diaper-free day!!
I have one more piece of important news. Mommy and Daddy have been giving me my daily dose of tummy-time, and I'm getting strong! Last night and this afternoon I lifted my head and did some mini-push-ups. Then, this afternoon (right after I lifted my head) I rolled over from my tummy to my back!! I must been doing a good job eating and working on my muscles, I'm turning into one strong baby! Look, I even have proof!
I've been a busy little bee :)
She is definitely getting strong! wow! she is busy too, look like you all have been having a great time : )
