Fun with Family and a Bath

Apr 17

Auntie Rachel and uncle Mike came to visit for a while today. We had fun together, but I slept through most of it. Later, Mommy and Daddy gave me a bath. While I do appreciate the warm water and being clean, I don’t care too much for all the procedures.

2 Months Old

Apr 15

I was born 8 weeks ago today! I went to the pediatrician and got some vaccine shots today. They were not fun. Everyone says I was very brave but the reality is I didn’t know what was going on. I have found that’s the best way to deal with unknown situations. I think if I had known what I was getting into I would have cried all the way there. The shots only hurt for a few seconds anyway and by the time I got home I had forgotten all about it.

I’m officially 8 pounds today and the doctor says I’m right at the low end for a standard 2 month old. Look out full-term babies, I’m catching up to you!

Here are some recent pics for your viewing pleasure.

Today was my original due date. I’m such a big girl now at just over 7lbs. Over double what I was when I was born. Crazy! See the latest photos below. Love to my family & Happy Easter!

Well I’ve been keeping Mom & Dad busy. Did you know that newborns make such a wide array of odds sounds? Sometimes I sound like a baby pterodactyl. Maybe my cousin Aiden will know what I’m saying because of his extensive knowledge of dinosaurs?

Sorry to have missed Mary’s visit — I hear it was a fun time. :)

 Below are some of the latest photos and a cute video of me getting my swaddle on at the hospital. Love you you all — Ruby.

Holy poop!  I’m coming home today.  Can’t wait!

Day 23

The word on the street is that I might be going home Monday evening. Good thing, too, because my cuteness is starting to annoy the other babies.

Day 22

Mom and dad pitched in on my bath today. They have to learn this stuff sooner or later cause I’m not going to bath myself!

I like getting nice and clean, especially when the nurses crank up the heater and make my bed all toasty and warm.
