I've been caught

In this video, Lauralyn is just playing on the gym like nobody is watching her, or so she thinks. So Adrian starts to video her for a while (she makes the cutest noises), then she realized that she has been caught and that Adrian is filming her. It is too funny. Then she starts to grin and laugh. Be sure to listen with the sound. Sorry for posting all the videos...I just wanted to share..lol. She is going to love these videos one day...hehe.

Frowns and Grins

Ok, I had to post this video. In the video, Adrian is telling Lauralyn to smile, and she frowns for about a second and then gets tickled and starts smiling. This goes back and forth for a little while between she and Adrian. It's like what you do with kids when they are older and you tell them "don't smile" and they are trying to hide the smile, but can't. Be sure to turn on your sound so you can hear Adrian talking to her.

Like mother, like daughter...


Tummy Time!

I just wanted to share some pics of Lauralyn's tummy time. She makes me laugh at all the sounds she makes. This isn't her favorite thing, but she likes it for a few minuets. She is so good at holding up that head already...makes mommy proud.


"uh...this is so hard!"

"Ok, I can't take it anymore...I am resting!"

Pops wanted to have tummy time too...lol


2 Months Doctor Visit

My baby girl had her 2 month visit to the Dr. on Wednesday (Nov. 5). I was SO proud of her...she did amazing. She usually HATES the Dr. because she has to get undressed, but this time, she will just kicking and looking around while she layed on the table. Here are her 2 month stats:

Weight: 10 lbs. 11 oz.
Height 22 3/4 in.

The Dr. said she is just perfect and that I am doing well with the nursing. For those of you moms out there who are nursing, you know how good it feels to hear that your child is getting the nourishment that she needs and gaining weight. That is always something that I worry about since I don't know how much she is getting. So it made me very happy to hear.

So then the nurse comes in to give the shots, and I got SO nervous. I wanted to cry, but knew I had to be strong for Lauralyn. So anyway, I just sat in the chair next to her, and watched her face, rubbed her head and talked to her. I didn't even look at the nurse give her the shots. It was all over in a matter of seconds and the nurse picked her up to console her and then gave her to me. As soon as I held her close and gave her that paci, she was fine. She stopped crying and was totally fine. So I just put her back in her car seat and we left. I was so proud. Here are a couple pics:

This was while we were waiting to see the Dr. and before her shots.


This was right after her shots when I put her in the car seat (see her purple band-aids)


This was once we got home...happy as can be!

2 months already!

I can't believe my Lauralyn is already 2 months old today! It has been so great getting to know you sweet girl. You make me so happy. I love you SO much.

Here are a few pics:

I love this pic...the outfit is from my Aunt Laura
This is from Sarabeth's birthday party...Lauralyn's first birthday party to attend. She loves it outside...it makes her happy, and especially in her daddy's lap.

This was Lauralyn's very first plane ride. She did SO good...no fussing at all. Everyone was saying "what a good little traveler!"


She is in her swing looking at the mobile...I love her big grins.



Daisy just loves to stop the swing so she can look at the baby...LOL. Lauralyn is thinking "I love you Daisy but quit stopping my swing!"

"Tah-dah! I'm 2 months old!"


And pose!
