Hilarity

We have a ton of pictures to post, but while you wait, here's a video we shot tonight. Moves featured include the "car wash," the "rib eater" and the "underarm tickle."

Mom & Dad’s Busy Life

We know that there are a lot of you checking here for updates, and we've been taking pictures and videos of Amelia, we just haven't had the time to post them up here yet. Mom's been running on very little sleep, and Dad just left his full-time job to start his own company, so as you may imagine, things are a bit hectic.

That said, Amelia is great. She started eating real food, and she even loves drinking from Mom's water bottle.

More pictures and other things soon, we promise.

Rolling Over

Front-to-Back

Amelia rolled from her front to her back today for the first time ever. Yeah, there was another time she went the other way, but that was on a soft couch that was sort of angled. This one is the real deal.

And we even caught it on camera.

At which point she turned 3 months old.

Standing Up

If you give Amelia a little help balancing, she can stand up and wobble around.

Catching Up

Amelia's Been Busy

Mom and Dad have been very busy lately, but not too busy to take a bunch of pictures. Amelia can sort of stand up now (although you have to help her balance). It's pretty amazing.

We also think she might be teething. She certainly likes chomping on fingers.

At which point she turned 2 months old.

Smile

Amelia was all smiles the other day, so Dad got out the camera while she was on the changing table and got to capture a couple of really happy moments.

Adventures with Friends

Amelia’s Going Places

Next Previous

We haven't been posting as much lately, but it's because we've all been so busy. Mom is working, Dad is working, Amelia is growing, cats are… being cats — mainly hanging out and being jealous. In the last week or so, Amelia has been hanging out around the house, with her nana, and with buddies down in Beverly.

Here are a couple of shots to catch you up on how she's doing.

Rolling Over

On the Couch, But Still

After a good fifteen minute lesson from Dad last night, Amelia put her rolling over skill to use to wow Mom. She was on the couch, and the surface is soft and slightly angled (so this doesn't really count as her first official roll over), but still, she did it. And on camera, nonetheless.

This is actually the second time that she ever did it after Mom seeing the first and saying "hey get down here, she just rolled over!"

Christmas Card Shoot

A Day of Dresses

Next Previous

The whole family got together tonight for our annual Christmas card shoot. Mom found a whole bunch of dresses and outfits to put Amelia in, and for the most part she didn't mind (although you can see the humor on her face drain with each outfit). Of all the pics we snapped, there's one great one that'll be our card.

Merry Christmas!
