Splish Splash, I was takin' a bath!

I LOVE taking baths!  Daddy says I got that from my Mommy.  I get all excited when Daddy brings me into the bathroom and I see the water running in the tub.  I'm too big for my baby bathtub now, so I take my baths with Mommy.  I try to be polite and not pee in the bath water, but most of the time I can't help myself!!  Mommy and Daddy have been loving hearing me use my words lately.  Yesterday, I wrapped my arms around Mommy's neck and said "mama" when she got me up from my nap.  Tonight, when Daddy was holding me after my bath, I said "dada".  My two favorite people, and my two favorite words!
Hi Mommy! I'm so excited for my bath!

Can we get in yet?

Ahhhhhh...

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter!  He Is Risen! I was pretty tired today because I've been feeling a bit under the weather.  Mommy and Daddy got me up earlier than usual so that we could go to the 9am Easter service at church.  I wore blue and white striped seersucker pants with a little button up cardigan sweater. I took a two hour nap after we got home, and then we went to Great Aunt Alex and Great Uncle Mike's house for lunch.  Everybody from Mommy's family was there except for Great Grandma Ellen, who is in the hospital, and Uncle Joe, who is in Chicago finishing up school.  We had a good time!  Now I am tuckered out, and snoozing away in Mommy and Daddy's bed.
First Easter for me and Mikayla!

Look closely and you'll see my 1st tooth on the bottom left side!

A sunny day...finally!

I turned 7 months old on April 3rd.  A few days earlier on March 30th, I got my first tooth!  I have a little tiny bit of my bottom left tooth peeking through the gums.  The bottom right is on the way, and has been making it hard for me to get a good night's sleep.  I was up every hour last night. Daddy had a big cup of coffee with breakfast, and by lunchtime Mommy was in desperate need of caffeine too.  She chose Coke instead of coffee!  Today was the first really nice day we've had in awhile.  We went to the beach.  I love it there!  I like to people watch and put my toes in the sand.  I fell asleep in my stroller on the walk home, and am currently parked in my nursery finishing my nap!

Can you tell I'm starting to get sleepy? Naptime started about five minutes later!
