I am ready for my close up

Lots of tummy time is making me strong because I am a little bigger than the normal 6 week old

I don't like being call chunky, thank you

But look at these cheeks....

So adorable!!! Keeping up his pants with Daddy's belt!

Walker and Amelia are doing great!!! She is being a super baby at night and sleeping six hour stretches. I wake up way before she does....what a blessing. Walker is starting to be even funnier than I could have ever imagined, and more loving. He just hugged me tonight and kissed me, which he demands by saying "Mooch". With puckered lips. How can I resist? I was in another room and he walked in with puckered lips and I bent down and kissed him. He promptly turned around and walked right back out....without saying a word to me. So cute.

He can even say I love you now, with some guidence from Mommy, but it is as clear as a bell.

Tummy time = nap time

Sleeping soundly
So much for tummytime

After her bath, Jonathan was bundling her up and he felt something warm. Well, little girl waited until Daddy had her to pee! And I caught it on film! Ahh, the joys of parenthood!

Playing outside with daddy

Love my sandbox
Tons of tractors, dumptrucks and cars

Learning to hit the T-ball

Winding up!!!

Ready to swing!

Amelia and her cuz

Rachel and Amelia! Rachel is my cousin's daughter
who was in town from North Carolina. She and her big sister Kaelyn took such good care of Walker and Amelia. We are very lucky to have them in our family!

Lovin the baby!!!!

LOVING my new sister....can you tell? Walker thought he was such a big boy since he got to hold Amelia all by himself. He was overjoyed! He is getting so independent, running and skipping all about. Now that there is a newborn around, you realize how big your "little" one is...

Amelia is growing like a weed...12.3 lbs, 22 inches, 90% and 80% respectively. Going about 3 hours between feedings during the day so I am starting to get a little more done. I am thinking I am going to go back to work a little earlier than I had anticipated, probably next month mid April. Just one day during the week, which will give me and the kids a break from one another! I think it is great for them to spend time with their Grandparents without me there. I think that different parenting styles only help to make your child behave better. At least I think so!

Bathing Beauty

So now that I have a little girl, I am beginning to understand why some Moms dress their kids in several outfits a day. This pink ensemble has the cutest little bloomers...who knew clothes could be so much fun! I have to make sure she wears all of the cute clothes that Aunt Sally loaned us, so I am changing her throughout the day. One way she is definitely like her momma is that she loves baths....she just looks and looks around and loves being sprayed with the sprayer. I see a lot of time devoted to tubtime in our future! She is eating and sleeping well and big Brother adores her still. We are lucky!
