Happy Baby!

Have I mentioned lately how happy Neve always is? She wakes up every morning with a smile on her face. It's amazing. Lately, she's also been getting into moods where she'll just giggle and laugh at a certain song or sentence or joke. While we were in Florida, Grandma had her cracking up by saying "You need to go to SLEEP" in her best baby voice. Tonight, Beth got Neve to laugh pretty hard at Peek-A-Boo. Here's a video...

And pretty much any time I want (just by singing a verse from "The Itsy Bitsy Spider" or "Humpty Dumpty") I can get this...

Or this...

Or this...

OK, I can't take credit for that one. That was all Great Grandpa!

Have a great night!

Merry Christmas from Santa Neve!

Slacker

And just like that, it's been 2 weeks since my last blog. Wow. Time flies. Especially during the holidays. Especially with a baby! And besides taking care of the little one and my properties, I've been shooting some portrait sessions. I'm working on a website for my photography and hopefully will have it up soon. If anybody needs any photography done, contact me. I'll link up to my website as soon as I get it done.

I received an email from my Mother-in-Law entitled "Slacker" this morning, so I thought it'd be a good day to get back to it. Since it's still the holiday season, I won't be able to write much. But I'll try to post as many pictures as I can. That way, hopefully I can avoid flak from the Mother-in-Law :)

Here's a few pictures of our visit with Santa earlier this month...

What a face from Neve in this one...

Neve was diggin' Santa...

Especially his beard...

Neve's been lucky to be able to visit her Great Grandfather...

Great Grandpa Dick is Neve's last surviving Great Grandfather. She is blessed and does have all 4 Great Grandmother's around to spoil her!

Have a great day!

This blog is officially dedicated to my FAVORITE Mother-In-Law.

Happy St. Nick's Day!

Neve,

Happy First St. Nick's Day! We left your favorite thing out for you...

Ok, well your second favorite thing... We couldn't really fit Mom's boob in your shoe. Don't worry, we won't leave it out all night.

Neve's fashion over the weekend...

Have a great night!

Three Men and a Baby

I went to lunch today with my dad and uncle. Our server got a kick out of that. Three Men and a Baby.

Poor Neve.

Yet despite having to hang out with a bunch of guys, Neve was smiley as usual. Even when she's stubborn with her smiles, all it takes is a little singing. Her new favorite song is "Tootie Fruity," with a little daddy twist on it. I think I was singing that for Neve in this picture...

Neve's feet were also cooperating today when they posed for a picture we sent to mommy...

Have a great weekend!

12 pounds 9 3/4 ounces of Baby

Neve had her 4 month check up today. She got a couple of shots, but was a trooper. She weighed in at 12 pounds 9 3/4 ounces and measured at 25 inches. For her age, that's 26th percentile in weight and 76th percentile in height. Guess it's time to bulk her up a bit. More sweet potatoes maybe?

Neve enjoyed her 4 month birthday yesterday with some activity time on her new favorite things. The table we attached to the bumbo...

Ollie wishing a Happy 4 Month Birthday...

We finally got the bouncy swing out. Neve is loving it (despite the nonchalant look in this next photo)...

Neve doesn't quite have the full grasp of the swing yet, though. She likes the taste of the swing more than the bounce. And somehow her arm ends up down by her leg...

And here are some shenanigans from today. If you look closely in this first one, there's an elusive eye booger that I just could not get out all day. Of course, it only took Mommy about 5 minutes to dig it out once she got home...

I'm not sure if Neve is laughing with me...

Or at me...

Or just trying to give me the Loser sign...

Why is the loser sign so close to the sign language for Daddy anyway???

Well, that's it. Peace out...

Have a great night!
