Our Beautiful Girl!

I am over a month old now! Time sure is flying by!!!

I am having a great time being able to move around freely. I like to kick my legs and wave my arms around. Mom says that I have been doing this for a long time. Now I can make bigger movements since her ribs and bladder are not in my way.

I have taken quite a few baths. I really enjoy the warm water running on my belly. Daddy spoils me by heating up my towel so I am toasty warm after getting out of the tub. I really like being wrapped up and snuggled after my bath.

My voice is getting louder and stronger. I used to make little noises, but now I am pretty good at getting my Mom and Dad's attention. I don't cry a lot, but I like to make sounds...just wait until I start to talk. I have many stories to tell.

Mom and Dad say that my cheeks are getting chunky...actually, my legs, arms and neck are also. Dr. Kautzman is very happy that I have gained almost 2 pounds since I was born...My parents joke about being so happy when I gain weight. They say that they want me to gain weight now. Then in twenty years I will want to lose weight! Funny!

Well, I hope you enjoy seeing the pictures of me and my family. We sure are having a good time together.

XOXOXOXO

I talked to your mom a few weeks ago while we were in McCall and she told us how you were doing. Congradulations on the baby, I am glad everything is going well. Your baby is a cutie.
