Walking backwards

For Christmas my Grandfather and mom-mom Burns got me a walker.  I really like it and I can now walk backwards!  These pics were taken on New Years Day.

I love my new walker!



Uncle Ty and me.  Aunt Carol was sick that day, hope she feels better soon!

Happy New Year!!!

Gosh it has been sooooo long since I posted!  I apologize but my computer was broke down for awhile but Mr. Tim fixed it and we did not lose any files!  Mommy said she would have been super upset if she lost any of my pics.
I am now 5 1/2 months and getting soooo BIG!  Mommy took me took the doctor last Wednesday because she saw some red patches on me and come to find out I have Eczema.  It is not too bad but mommy and daddy have to put lots of lotion on me twice a day.  It makes me feel much better :)  I weigh 15 lbs. 15 oz. and have gone up to 63% from 50% on the weight chart, oink, oink :)  I always laugh at mommy when she makes that noise.

At 5 1/2 months:
 - I am a pro at rolling over and can maneuver my body to get to something I want
 - I love to suck on my toes, especially when mommy and daddy are changing me
 - I still love to take baths
 - I am eating cereal in the morning along with my bottle and will start veggies at dinner time in a few weeks
 - I wear 3-6 months clothes and some 6-9 months
 - I love to play with my dog Abby and pull her hair if she gets close enough
 - I scream to hear my own voice and when I am mad I have another very distinct scream for that
 - I love watching baby Einstein each morning and we also just started watching Your Baby Can Read sometimes in the afternoon. ( I am not a huge fan of the afternoon video though)
 - I am sleeping in my big girl bed and doing very well
 - I love to laugh at Abby, and my mommy and daddy when they are silly


Mommy and Daddy took me to get my pictures taken right before Christmas.  Here I am at 5 months old:

Such a cutie pie!  This was the first pic the photographer took.

Wow......

Playing in the snow!

Sunday we had a pretty good snow storm here, we got about 6" or so.  Daddy took me outside yesterday to play in the snow.  I don't really see what the big deal is but my dog Abby really loves the snow.:)
Sunday night I also got to sleep in my big girl bed for the first time!  I did a great job and I like it a lot. 


After a good nights sleep in my big girl bed

I like my new bed!

A little blurry but I am having fun!

Merry Christmas!

I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas!!  My mommy and daddy took me and Abby to NY for a week to spend time with my mom's family.  It was lots of fun and very cold up there!  I tried cereal for the first time while I was there and did not like it so much at first but it is growing on me :)  I turned 5 months old last Wednesday, and we all went out to dinner at Sorge's.  It was very nice and I was a good girl.
I got lots of clothes and toys for Christmas, but I just had fun eating the wrapping paper.

NOT loving this, mom!!

Ugh, where is my bottle?

More???

Yay, cousin Kaylyn to the rescue!

Flutter Kicks

Hi everyone!  I will be 21 weeks tomorrow and 5 months old on the 22nd!  Today I went to the doctor to get my second round of shots for my 4 month well visit.  I tell you what, that one shot hurt soooo bad I screamed really loud!  :(  Luckily I only had one today.  Mommy wanted to do some Christmas shopping after my visit but I said I was ready to go home and lay down.  Tomorrow daddy and mommy are taking me to the mall to get some pictures taken so that should be fun! 

I started doing flutter kicks a few weeks ago.  When I lay down I like to raise my head and my feet.  Daddy says he remembers doing them in the academy and does not miss them at all :)

I got to see Santa and Mrs. Clause on Sunday at my daddy's work

My first gift opening.  I like the paper!

Abby is so silly, she makes me laugh all the time :)

Flutter kicks!

I am going to have the best baby abs, lol!

Uncle Chad and Aunt Dana's Wedding

Last night my Uncle Chad got married and I got to go to the wedding.  I was a very good girl and sat through the whole ceremony with only one little peep.  I had lots of fun at the reception, I got to see family I have not met yet and I saw lots of people dancing.

The wedding party.  They all look so nice!

Me and my uncle Jim

Daddy, this hat does not fit me, silly!

4 month check-up

Wednesday I went to the Doctor for my 4 month well visit and shots :(  I weigh 14 lbs. 2 oz., and I am 25 inches long.  I got one shot and one I had to take like a bottle.  I did cry after the shot but not for too long as I was already very sleepy so I just took a nap.  Luckily I did not have a fever after my shot so my mommy was happy.  My doctor said mommy and daddy can start to slowly switch my formula to a different kind, and in a few weeks I get to start cereal!  I am definitely looking forward to that.:) 
Thursday I turned 19 weeks old and I also got to see Santa!!  He was very nice and asked me what I wanted for Christmas.  Santa told mommy and daddy I wanted a college fund, lol!



Today is my Uncle Chad's wedding and I can't wait!  My mom has my dress all picked out and she said she will be sure to take lots of pics.
Mommy thought this was really funny, check it out......
