A Day in the Life

I have come to realize that life with a baby is all about the immediate and routine. When she needs something she needs it quickly, and we do the same things over and over each day. I really love it. 

Every day Kate gets quite "drunk" after she eats:) She wears a bib because she is a messy eater!

She has some bouncy seat time every day. Today was the first day she actually watched the bubbles and little creatures! 

She laughs and plays with dad....

and mom!!!

Unfortunately, her favorite pastime is watching TV. She will sometimes stare at it for 10-15 minutes at a time (which in 2 month-old time is like an hour:) We will have to limit her TV time when she gets bigger I think!

Sometimes the shows get scary!

It's so hard to wake up from a deep sleep to eat!

Almost there!

Kate rides in her car seat almost everyday and isn't too fond of it....unless the car is moving:)

And after all that, who wouldn't need some sleep?

By the way, I highly recommend the Swaddle Me blanket she is sleeping in. She didn't seem to like it at first but I tried it again a few weeks later. Now it is one member of "The Indispensable Trifecta of Sleep" (aka, hat, paci, swaddle me blanket)

Kendra and Jeanie both tagged me to go to my 6th folder and post the 6th picture. It's baby Kate being checked and cleaned right after she was born. She looks SUPER annoyed. I would be too:) 

Now I tag my SISTER

Smiles All Around

***warning: this post contains a rather ridiculous amount of pictures. I couldn't narrow them down.***

Kate turned 6 weeks old on Saturday! In the last two weeks she has started to smile and coo! I think it is pretty much the cutest thing ever:) I took about a gazillion pictures of her this morning trying to capture a smile and was able to get a few. 

Her new favorite thing is "naked time". This is when she gets to lay on her changing pad with no diaper for a little bit. She kicks and waves her arms and talks and smiles up a storm! It's hilarious how much she loves it. I took all these pictures directly after naked time when she was still quite happy:) 

She gave herself a nasty scratch because I didn't trim her razor thumb nail in time.

This picture shows how big she has gotten! I can't wait to get her stats at the doctor in a few weeks.

Close range surprise face:)

"Come here, I wanna tell you a secret."

I love this one:)

Looking exactly like her dad while sneezing. (she and I both have a bit of a cold.)

Starting to smile!

Working those arms and legs!

I included this one to show how long and chubby her body is and how short and skinny her legs are. Last night David and I were laughing because he said she looks like Dogbert from the "Dilbert" cartoon strip. She really does:)
