Reading with Daddy

[I apologize for the lousy quality/expressions... this was the best of the pictures though and I couldn't resist.]

Kelly Fix

Kelly has been neglected a little bit of late on here so....

Alyssa's Tummy Time

Turns out our little Bunky is not a big fan of tummy time. So we dragged out the tummy time toy that we got for Kelly way back when. This made for a much happier Bunky.

This one reminds me of Kelly and Alyssa's Aunt Kate in the pictures I've seen of her as a baby... not surprising since Alyssa is the spitting image of her Daddy and he and his sister look a lot alike.

Now tummy time doesn't seem so bad after all!

Two Months Old

Last Sunday Alyssa turned two months old.  We visited her pediatrician on Monday so she could receive a slew of vaccinations -- 4 shots plus 1 oral vaccine.  The nurse was particularly impressed at how she was smiling again just moments after the shots.  Alyssa's stats are were right in line with her sister's 2 month stats, so much so that the negligible differences could probably be chalked up to measuring error... 11 pounds, 14 ounces and 22 inches long.  She's doing great!

Happy Halloween!!

Due to the cruddy weather last night Alyssa skipped trick or treating.  I didn't want her costume to competely go to waste, so I dressed her up for some quick pictures.

World's cutest pumpkin:

Kelly went trick or treating with Daddy as a dragon.  Getting suited up:

Roaring!  She has been practicing for a while...

 

Kelly was a great trick-or-treater, telling everyone "Trick or Treat!" and "Thank you!" which is more than I can say for the trick-or-treaters that came to our door.  Out of the dozen kids (all older than Kelly) that I saw, only one actually said "Trick or Treat."
