My Trip to Traverse City


Much better. Thanks, Dad.

Can we go in the hot tub now? Please!

I went in all the way up to my belly button.

My second time swimming was in the pool. Brrrr, it was cold!

I'm getting better at lifting my head. I've even rolled over a few times.

How are you doing that, Grandpa?!

Grandpa Tom played with me a while, even though he "doesn't do the real little ones." Don't worry, Grandpa, I'll be more interactive soon.

I got to spend some time with both of my grandmas!

Miller and I got tired at Mommy's birthday party.

I haven't seen Aunt Sue in a while, so I made sure to wear the cherry outfit she got me.

This is my big friend, Mike.

Vacation has been so busy, Grandpa and I both needed a nap.

Ok, I'm ready to get back in the shade now.

Ha! Wet sand feels funny!

The bay was certainly not as warm as my baths, but I didn't mind too much.

My first time swimming was in Grand Traverse Bay. I was a little nervous at first, but then I kind-of liked it.

Grandma made sure to keep a close eye on us.

Miller and I camped out in my tent on the beach. I didn't really know what was going on, but Miller liked looking through the windows.

Grandma's turn!

Grandpa thinks I'm getting big.

Standing on the table is more fun than playing cards.

I tried my hand at cards with Dad.
Here I am with my soon-to-be-uncle. Karl. He just proposed to Aunt Kate. Congrats, guys!!!

Chillin' with Stacey.

These bandaids on my legs should tell you that I didn't have a very good day. You guessed it! I visited the doctor again. The nurse is so nice, so I don't understand why she gave me three painful shots. But I really let her have it! Mom and the nurse should know better than to hurt me like that. I screamed as loud as I know how to warn all the other babies out there. Mission accomplished. Now that I'm home, I'll just fuss for the rest of the day to show Mom how unhappy these shots make me.
On a more positive note, the doctor is very proud of me! I am 22 inches long and weigh 11 lbs 8 oz!!! I'M HUGE! Doc said that mom should keep feeding me a lot so I can stay on the chubby side. He was impressed that I can sleep through the night, pull with my arms, control my head pretty well, and track him all the way from one side to the other. I gave him a couple smiles too (but that was before all the pain).
Time to wake up and make Mom feel guilty for taking me to get shots!

I'm 4 months old now. Woo hoo! Look what I can do!!!

My strong, chubby legs.

Thanks for visiting me, Abbie!



I am becoming very aware and alert.

I can hold onto my birdie rattle!

Hey, buddy! What do you think about this tongue?



We are such good buddies!

Sometimes I practice sitting in my Bebe Pod. I still need Mom's help, though.
