More of the same

Just wanted to share another ponytail day.




With glitter polished nails to match!


For the record: Daddy had absolutely nothing to do with this.


Except painting my nails.
Shhhh. don't tell.

3 Months Old...

Hi Folks, I'm Will. And now I'm 3 MONTHS OLD!!!


Did I mention that I weigh over 17 lbs, and my parents are afraid I might outgrow my crib in the next several weeks? We'll see how it all works out...(pictured above is my worried face).

For now I'm officially fat.


And happy.



And old enough to watch Baby Einstein with the big sister.

Daddy's Girl

Daddy's on a trip again.  But I have had a lot of things I've wanted to show him and tell him.  So, mom's been taking pictures and video per my request.   My parents are still techno nimrods, so they haven't figured out how to get video on the blog.  These pictures will have to suffice.  
Daddy, here's a preview....

This is the castle I made for Cinderella.

This is an outfit I was particularly fond of.

And this.  This is my first ever ponytail.  I finally let mommy put one in after seeing Naomi's on her blog.  Toddler peer pressure is merciless.

And in baby brother news:  Will is now sucking his thumb.  At 2.75 months.  And he's closing in on 17 lbs.  The doc told mom to start putting Desitin in his fat rolls to protect the skin since they're so deep.  Who is this kid?

Gentle Giant


We are calling Will our 'Gentle Giant'. Gentle because he is a sweet little guy and giant because he is....well....enormous.  You can see for yourself from the pictures, although they don't really do his girth justice.   The little man is 2.5 months old and weighs 14 lbs, 13 oz. That is almost double his birth weight! He is already in 6-9 month size clothes. And everyone thought I was a chunker. We are starting to think that mom's milk is of the condensed variety.
