Today you are officially one month old! Monday you turned Four weeks, but I wanted to wait until today (the 11th) to make it official. I cannot believe we've had you for an entire month. Every day is still a new adventure with you.
It's been a busy week for us! So busy I'm having a hard time remembering everything we did. I'm going to try to remember by working backwards.
Yesterday was a long day, we got up early and went to Equal.Grounds for coffee to meet one of my friends, Kelly, and to be introduced to her friend Jamiee who has a daughter Zetta who is just a little bit older than you. We had a great time talking, and you slept almost the whole time! After that we made a quick trip out to Grandma and Grandpa O's, so they could watch you while I took a short nap. Then later, we went over your Uncle Mike and Aunt Becky's for a cookout. Your Uncle Mike had a great time holding you and making faces at you.
Monday we had our customary lunch date with Aunt Becky. As usual you were very well behaved and slept while we ate. After that we went grocery shopping at Wegmans, and then relaxed around the house.
Sunday we went to the Corn Hill festival with Farley. We walked around for a couple hours, and you seemed perfectly happy being carried around. Halfway through the festival, I handed you off to your Dad who carried you for the rest of the time. It was a really nice day, although both me and your Dad got a little sun burnt, we managed to keep you from getting too much sun.
The picture is of your Dad and Farley, and you can see that your Dad has the carrier on, with you in it.
Saturday we went over to Grandma and Grandpa O's and hung out, like usual, although we went over early and left around 10pm. While we were there, we got out the baby scale and weighed you, you're 8 lbs now! We also tried to measure you, and we think you're about 21 inches again.
Friday we went out to get food with Andrew and Micha, who were both very amused by you. Also on Friday we went over to Alex and Lisa's to have cake for your Grandma R's birthday. Your Dad's cousins, Rachel and Rebecca, were there, and they really enjoyed holding you. You really are the star of every party we go to!
Last Wednesday was the 4th of July, and we went over to a friend of your Grandma R's for a cookout, and so she could meet you. It was really hot out and there were a lot of bugs, but none of that seemed to bother you. After the cookout we went to Grandma and Grandpa O's so me and your Dad could go swimming to cool off. We decided to skip the fireworks this year, but we'll see about trying to take you next year!
You're getting so big Jorie-bear. And every day it seems like you learn to do something new. I love you baby girl.
