Whenever mom starts taking pictures of me, Abby always gets jealous so mom always has to include her in the picture taking. Isn't she cute?

Update

Hi everyone!
I hope that everyone is doing well. I know that I am doing just great!! I will be 12 weeks tomorrow, how exciting is that? Life is just going by so fast out here. I went to the doctor a few weeks ago and i weighed 12 pounds ten ounces and i was 23 and a half inches long!! Both in the 75th percentile! I am just growing so fast. I gained two and a half pounds in two weeks...i think that is some kindof record or something!! Because I am growing up so fast, I get to sleep longer in the night now cause I can hold more in my belly! I am only waking mom up twice during the night...usually around 12 and 4 and then I'm up for the day at 6! I'm an early riser, mom doesn't like that too much!! Another big piece of news is that I am officially sleeping in my own crib in my own room now for about three weeks now! Isn't that exciting? It is great being independent...it's my own room and you are only allowed in when i invite you ( i.e. crying my head off).
Anyways, Mom and Dad are doing great as well...mom stays home with me ALL day and dad is usually at work but on those days that we are all home together, we have SO much fun! We usually go on walks and to the park and take my sister Abby. She loves going on those trips in the back of the truck!
We have a busy couple of weeks coming up so I probably won't be able to write to everyone for awhile. In a few days we are going to Mimi and Poppi's for a few days to visit with them and make sure that Uncle Justin is doing okay ( he broke his collarbone during hockey, silly boy!) While Uncle Vinny is in Michigan for training, mom and me are going to go stay with Aunt Sarah and annoying cousin Avery for a little while to entertain them. I hope Avery doesn't drive me crazy ( or eat me). And then after that we are going to Florida for a week to visit Great Grandma and Great Grandpa...Grandma Nancie, Aunt Sarah and Cousin Avery are coming as well! I am SO excited. We got me Tommy Hilfiger bathing trunks and a really cool sun hat that I can't wait to wear! And Grandma Nancie bought me this really cool floaty thing that I get to sit in in the pool. We are driving down ( ew) so that won't be very much fun but i have promised that i will be on my BEST behavior for mom and dad! We will be in Florida over mom's birthday so I am going to get her something really fun!! Anyways, i hope everyone is doing well and leave me some messages because mom always reads them to me and it makes me happy...

ps- another BIG development-- i have become VERY smiley...and it makes mom giggle with joy everytime i smile at her...i just have her wrapped around my little finger, don't I?

Hi All!!
I know it has been a REALLY long time but I have just been so busy with Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years. So i will try catching you all up quickly. Thanksgiving was quite a fun holiday for me!! I met a lot of new people and they all came to my house to meet me and eat lots of food. I of course, only got my formula...which doesn't seem quite fair, does it? After Thanksgiving, mom and i finally had some time to settle into a routine and get used to it just being us usually. I found out that i LOVE my swing, it is the best thing that was ever made. I can sit in that for two minutes and be out for three hours. Mom says that it is her saving grace, whatever that means. So mom and I are together a lot but there are some days when dad gets to be home with us too. Those are really fun days and i hate taking my naps on those days.

Anyways, Christmas came so fast this year and boy were we busy busy busy!!! We started our christmas time going to Great Grandma and Great Grandpa's and opened presents and had a big meal. This was my first long road trip ( almost three hours long) and I did such a great job!! I had to eat only once the whole way up there, gosh I'm a good baby. Anyways, after that we went to Grandma and Grandpa Garth's house for Christmas and dinner once again and then we finally went to Charlottesville to Grandma's for the week. Well mom and me went to Grandmas and dad had to go back home because he had to work Christmas eve. But on Christmas morning, daddy surprised me and drove all the way to Charlottesville to help me open all my presents, it was so much fun!!! We then jumped in the car and came back to Richmond to open presents with Mimi, Poppi, Aunt Janelle, Aunt Joy, Uncle Justin, Great Granny, Great Grandpa, Great Aunt Muffy, and Great Uncle Ralph! Whoa! Was i busy or what????

Then, a few days later we packed everyone up ( Abby, my sister, has been at the kennel this entire time, poor puppy, i will have to give her lots of love when i get home!) and went to the Outerbanks for the week of New Years! So that's where we are right now but we are leaving tomorrow and we will finally get to relax and be at home for awhile!!! I like the beach but there are SO many people here that want to love me and hold me that I just really don't want to take any naps! So i have been VERY cranky and not sleeping well during the night either. So mom and i are both looking forward to being back at home where we can get back to our regular sleeping schedules! Here are some pictures of my trip to the outerbanks, look how much i have grown!!!
