New Family Site

We are going to start posting pictures and updates on a new family site as a one-stop resource for news on the girls and maybe the parents, too. We will keep the girls' sites in case they want to share anything with you. Just head on over to http://www.greenandpinkparty.blogspot.com/.

We've Moved

I will get Mommy to post pictures once she finds the camera cable, but I did want to give an update:

We arrived in Charleston on Saturday after a very long car trip. I was on my best behavior, but am grateful to be out of the car.

We stopped in Little Rock where I got to watch my big sister swim at the hotel, in Nashville where I met family friends Paul and Jennifer and then in Greenville (our first night as South Carolinians).

Our stuff arrived on Monday and Mommy and Daddy are slowly unpacking us. Several nice people from the church have visited us and even brought us dinner and welcome gifts. Sadly, I have not gotten any of the wonderful desserts that people have brought. I can't wait for my teeth to come in.

I really like the new house and spend lots of time looking around. I am getting better at holding my head up. There is lots of activity with my big sister running around (especially in her green room), unpacking and making countless trips to Target, Babies R Us and Bed Bath and Beyond.

I smiled at Mommy for the first time on Sunday (18th). She was thrilled as she didn't think I was ever going to smile after that car trip she and Daddy put me through. Mommy called Daddy over and I smiled for him too.

Tonight I laughed for the first time when Daddy tickled me on my side. Music to my tired parent's ears. Maybe I can get them to catch it on video.

Elegant Fingers

A friend gave us a hand print kit before I was born. A few days ago, Mommy and Daddy got my hand print and Mommy mentioned how long my fingers are.

Maybe I can be a hand model or an amazing pianist.

Weekend Activities

Papa came to meet me Saturday. We had a good visit and I get to see him again this week along with the rest of my family when Daddy becomes Reverend Daddy.
















































I started having tummy time this week. I really don't mind it at all, I just look around and enjoy the bright colors that are around me. I especially like to stare at the yellow wall in the living room. I am getting stronger everyday and will be able to roll over before you know it.

Eyes!

Mommy's Sunday School class (middle school) made me this welcome poster.











Mommy and Daddy weighed me on Wednesday--I am now at 8lbs 13 oz.

Daddy finally got a picture of me with my eyes open. You can tell I am a pretty laid back baby.

Three Weeks Old

I am almost three weeks old now. I am starting to sleep more regularly, but Mommy and Daddy still haven't gotten me to sleep in my own bed (they haven't really been trying too hard). I have been to church, Daddy's school, Mommy's office and my big sister's school. It has been fun meeting everyone. Of course we only have a little over a week before we venture out to our new home and more new friends.
