Thanksgiving 2017, Meeting my Pittsburgh Clan




















Me and Grandma BG!!  And here are my cousins, Erik & Caitlin.  Can't wait to get a little older and start getting silly with these big kids!







At Home, mid November



I'm two months old!!  Here's what I'm up to...




Me and Kopper taking a nap side by side...  And yup, I LOVE my jumpee chairs!!






Starting to read books with my moms sometimes...  This one has a baby at the end of the story!!


I'm gaining weight, sleeping well...and full of cuteness every day!


My Family loving on me!


Here's Mamma, watching over me during a doctor visit in early November.  We love our doctor and nurses - they take wonderful care of our whole family :)



Me and Mommy like to snuggle in the evenings, and sometimes watch MASH together.  Sweet Cuddle time!!



And here we are at Kestin's school, celebrating her Straight A's...  She was so proud to hold me and give me lots of kisses!





Hand me down, down, down!


This bunny winter outfit is a hand-me down from my big sister, Kestin...  who was wearing it with thanks to Aunt Debbie, who had handed it down to her from my cousin Stefanie.  Wonder who will wear it next??



Saturday

A Favorite among Favorites...


My parents had trouble choosing just one favorite portrait, but this definitely was one of the top picks!  Whaddya think??



A sneaky shot of Mamma, in her element :)

And below, one of Mommy getting me clean and ready to go!  Can you believe how tiny I look??






My Great-Great Grandparents Love Me Too...


Here I am, perched for a quick moment all by myself in the drawer of the bureau that belonged to my Great-Great Grandparents, Eleanore and William Preston.  They lived in Vermont.  Eleanore's maiden name was Hawkins, and William's grandmother, Katherine Aiken, came over from Ireland.  Do you think 100 years ago they could imagine me sitting here?








With Snuggle Friends






More Sleepy Portraits


BTW, these photos were not all taken in one day!


With a lil Headband...


I'm not sure about  this!...  The lights are warm but I'm a little chilly, and this thing on my head feels weird!!





Laura Ingalls??


Mamma thinks this one looks like I'm on Little House on the Prairie...
Mommy says the outfit was just too big on me!  Maybe we'll try it again in a couple months.



Our friend Renee made this blanket for me, embroidered with my name.  It's cuddly and filled with love.  Thanks, Renee!

And thanks to the many other friends and family who have also given me blankets, adorable clothes, toys and other wonderful gifts!  XOXO






Sleepy Portraits...


Me in my polka dots!  And believe it or not, I'm asleep here, even with my eyes open!



Teal seems to be one of my colors!!









Baby Portraits, early November 2017

Here is a warm-up shot, while my Mamma got the lighting how she wanted it, and Mommy got the background how she wanted it...  My hair looks so blonde here!  But it varies between blonde and red and brown, depending on the day :)







It's fun to see the out-takes too!   ...BTW, these overalls are Mommy's favorite outfit on me!  They are preemie size, have super cute pockets and a little doggie on the front.





This one, above, is kind of my kitty cat pose.  It's what I do when I get startled.  Mommies hold me or pat me right away to make sure I feel secure; even so, they say the kitty cat pose is super cute to see!






Tuesday

Bathtime!

I really love baths, and always have!  Sometimes I get fussy at the end, but that's usually because it's time for a bottle and when I'm hungry, I'm HUNGRY!




I look so tiny in this big, big tub!
