2 month check up

We went to the doctor for her check up on March 9. She weighed 10 lbs 13.5 oz and 22.5 inches. She's our very average little girl, right on the 50th percentile.
This is how she reacted after her shots. We're so thankful that she didn't have any type of reaction.

Family Visits

We've had both our parents come to visit over the past few weekends. It has been so nice for them to get acquainted with Catherine. And it's been good to have a break because they would watch her in between feedings.
Sorry Chriss. I don't know how I didn't get any pictures of you with her. We'll get them at Easter.
Catherine loved to stare at Papa David

Our venture outside in the beautiful weather


Uncle Christopher's first time meeting Catherine

Family Portrait

Grandpa Gary could make Catherine giggle at any time. She's his "cupcake"


Grandma Margie talking with Catherine. She is trying hard to talk back.

Catherine lying on the quilt Grandma Margie quilted for her. Some of the pieces were embroidered by her Great-grandmother Goldie. She is also doing a great job holding onto objects like her purple Easter bunny.

The Many Faces of Catherine

Here are some recent photos of Catherine. She makes some funny faces.


Thinking about how to reach that fan on the ceiling.


She likes to kick around


Having a serious discussion with Dad

Laughing at Dad's funny faces

She's so proud of herself standing

Fun times at home

Here are some recent photos. We plan to get portraits done now that her baby acne has gone. YAY!

Fast asleep


She still sleeps a lot. But is active when she is awake.

Playing with mom and dad. She has such a big smile.



Watching herself get a bath.

YAY! Bath time

Say Cheese

We've gotten Catherine to smile some lately. She's even laughed at us while playing. We're so excited to have reached these milestones. (Sorry for the washed out picture. I didn't get the flash turned off in time).

Dentac Ball

Last night was the Dentac Birthday Ball. This was also the first time that Jonathan and I have been out without Catherine. We had some friends take care of her while we went out. We had a good time going through the formalities and I got to meet all the people that he works with.
Jonathan looked great in his uniform (I still don't get the different color jacket and pants).

1 month

Sorry for the backlog of pictures. I was sick again and haven't felt up to much of anything until the past couple of days. After talking with the lactation consultant again she thought that Catherine's frenulum may be the cause of the recurrent mastitis. We took her to the pediatric dentist yesterday and even though Catherine is feeding great we went ahead and had him cut her frenum. She's doing great and doesn't remember a thing...so we think.
She's so cute!

She likes her monkey rattle

Sweet Valentine

My view of her from the carrier

Splash!

Time is flying by already. Catherine continues to remain healthy. We are trying to figure out our routine at home and help her get adjusted to a good sleep schedule that benefits us all. Her cord fell off this past week and we finally gave her a real bath. She seems to like the baths but doesn't want to put her feet in the water. Her faces are adorable but we can never capture them on camera. We'll try harder in the future!
