A few weeks ago we bought Susanna a doorway jumper. She REALLY likes it!! I will try to attach a video of her showing off. Watch as she FREEZES as soon as she notices Daddy recording her. She is soo cute!!


This past week Susanna REALLY started teething. Last Friday and Sunday were horrible days and the poor girl was in soo much pain. We did our best to help her out and Miguel and I tried to keep each other sane as well through all the screaming and whining. We have made it through the worst (I HOPE) and she now has one cute little tooth that has cut through her gums. It is the front left bottom tooth and I think the one right next to it is soon on the way too. We hope to get a pic soon but she is so hard to catch on film smiling. Before you know it she will be having her first dental visit to Dr. Daddy!

Susanna has learned to roll from her back to her belly. I really thought this would NEVER happen because of how much she hates tummy time. But she has figured it out and two nights in a row we were awoken by a crying baby who was on her belly and couldnt get back to her back! Miguel and I were wondering when we were actually going to get the chance to witness this new accomplishment and FINALLY 2 days after its first occurence we got to see her do her new trick. I am sooo impressed!!! I have regained confidence that she will crawl and is going to be mobile before we know it!!

Susanna and Daddy visited with Gigi and Grandad last weekend. They had a lot of fun together playing and smiling. Check out what happens when Grandad is in charge of baby.... soo cute :)

Susanna and I have daily photoshoots... check out our latest pics.

SQUASH!

Susanna and I have been having a lot of fun since our last update. She has been trying new foods and is really LOVING IT!! So far she has eaten rice cereal, bananas, sweet potatoes, squash, and peas. She really likes bananas and we recently discovered she LOVES SQUASH!!! She has eaten that twice and each time wants to eat the whole container. I just let her, hope that is ok?!?!?


She sure has started off to be a good eater. I shouldn't be surprised... both her parents are good eaters too :)

We bought her a doorway jumper and she loves being able to move, jump and swing. It is also another great toy to try and distract her while I try to get something done in the kitchen. She is soo cute!




Many of you know that little Susie does not enjoy tummy time. We have been working on it and she is getting better. Now, instead of IMMEDIATELY screaming her head off, she tolerates it for a minute and is even learning to push up a bit more and hold her head higher. She is doing a fantastic job!


I am excited for when she is able to crawl and we are trying out other exercises to help her on becoming more mobile. I will probably look back some day and think I am crazy for wishing this now!!!

We have had many visits from Joey (Uncle Yo Yo) lately and Susanna is enjoying her time with him. Joey is also making sure to pay attention to the other forgotten fuzzy child. What a good uncle!!


Susie loves spending "chill" time with daddy... they are so cute together!

Girls Weekend

Vicki and I took the girls to Sunset Beach for a weekend getaway. Patricia and Ricardo allowed us to stay at their wonderful beach house and we had a GREAT TIME!! The girls had so much fun together playing, going on walks, and taking naps. We drove to Calabash and had a yummy meal and then shopped at Callahan's. It was only 2 nights but the girls were already getting on the same eating and napping schedule.

Ava took an emergency bath after a diaper mishap and we got to see all her fabulous hairstyles! My favorite was her devil horns but it doesn't look like Ava liked them very much!! She is such an adorable angel and I loved spending some quality time with my god-daughter.


Speaking of angels... look at my beautiful girl. Isn't she precious :)



This was the first road trip Susanna and I took alone and she did wonderful! She even slept all the way on our 3 hour trip home. I am looking forward to when we get to go again :)
