2nd Month Appt.

Well Bree had her 2 month appointment today and everything went well. She is 13 lbs and 5.5 oz in the 96% and 24 1/2 in long and 97%. The doctor said she is a big girl, he said that she is going to start not being satisfied with her feedings and that we need to start her on rice cereal. So with 2 of her bottles we are to put in a tablespoon of rice cereal everyday. We tried it with one bottle already and she seems to like it. Also at the 2 month appointment she had to have 3 shots :( It was sad seeing her cry, but she is a trooper and only cried for a couple seconds and was fine. also some good news she slept from 9-7 last night, if she keeps this up she will have a very happy mommy and daddy. Bree started at the babysitter this week and has adjusted very well. She goes with 3 little boys and they love her. I am really glad to have found a good babysitter that I can really trust. Everyday she sends a detailed note home of when she eats, changes diapers, and naps.

Happy 2 Month Birthday Miss Bree!!!

We had a fun filled day!!! First we had lunch with Marikay and Courtney in Ottawa, then on the way home we stopped and said hello to grandma who was working in Richmond today. Next Bree and I came home and went on a walk around town. In the evening when Brian got home we went on another walk. Bree really enjoys going on walks now. This evening was so nice we decided to do a few pictures outside with the tulips. Bree really likes her Bebe Pod, and will enjoy it more once she gets a little more head control. Well I hope you were all able to go outside today and enjoy the nice weather!! Only four more days on maternity leave :( Oh well the bills won't get paid unless I work so I better go back!

Busy Weekend!!

This last weekend Brian's dad Jerry came down from South Dakota to visit Bree for the first time. I think he enjoyed meeting Bree, though I think she is a pretty likeable baby :) He was only able to be here for a short time, but Brian and I will be making the trip to South Dakota in June. On Saturday afternoon Bree and I attended Amanda and Payton's baby shower and really enjoyed ourselves while Brian and Jerry were back at the house working outside. Little Miss Bree wasn't so little when next to Mr. Payton at the shower, she is growing like a weed. Last week when I weighed her she was 12 lbs and 8 oz. On Sunday evening we headed to Emily and Jeff's for supper. Jeff is trying his smoker out and we were his guinea pigs, the meat was great Jeff :) Well this is my last week of maternity leave, I am glad it is going to be gorgous outside so Bree and I can go on walks and maybe get some flowers planted!!!

Happy Easter!!

I hope everyone had a good Easter today. We dressed Bree in her Easter dress for our family get together at Grandpa Michael's house. We learned that she must not like wearing tights because Saturday night at church she peed on them and grandpa Kipper then today she had a blowout and got her tights dirty. Oh Well!!! I think she really likes to wear dresses, I think we have a girly girl on our hands. The next picture is of Brian and Bree's Saturday afternoon ritual, they love to nap together. Aren't they Cute. The last picture is bath time with Bree. She has really started to like taking her baths, she doesn't fuss until she gets out and is cold. She continues to sleep really good at night, anywhere from 6-9 hours at a time!!!

Picture Time...

I just wanted to share some pics from a couple of Bree's photo sessions!!! A couple are with her bunny ears and the others are with her tutu that I made. I am pretty proud of myself for being able to make it, it was quite easy to make and only took me an hour!!! Today was not a nice day outside with the rain, sleet, and snow. We stayed inside all day and made cinnamon rolls and a pot of stew. I hope everyone has a good weekend.

One Month Appt.

Well her appointment went very well today. She is 10 lbs 9 oz and 22 1/4 in long, she is in the 90% of each of those, Dr.Grimaldi kept saying that her legs are so long. Well I guess she is taking after her mother in that aspect. I have enclosed some more pics a couple of the boys holding her, some funny faces we caught on camera, and one from her baptism for you to enjoy. Today I bought her some bunny ears for easter(Brian rolled his eyes at me when I came out of Target with them) so be ready for some easter pics soon.

One Month Old!!

Holy Cow!!! Bree is already a month old, where has the time went. We have had a fun filled first month. We are lucky to still have such a good sleeper, she is sleeping up to 6 hrs at a time, lets just hope she continues this until she sleeps through the night. Today we went for a walk with daddy and Dakota, we think she enjoyed it!! We had her baptized on March 12, she was very good, she didn't even make a sound when Fr. Jerry poured water on her head. Tomorrow we go to the Dr to see how much she has grown, she is really starting to fill out. It is amazing how much more she is moving and the sounds that she comes up with. Well I will update tomorrow with her stats from the appointment!!!
