painting pumpkins

This past weekend we went to Downingtown to visit with Valerie and everyone. While we were there we painted pumpkins everyone had a blast. Nanny and Poppy went to get a kitten which Austin loved and got in the cage to play with her (we think it is a her). Valerie enjoyed spending some time with Savannah which she has not had much time to do. We visited with Beam and Poppy as well, we will have to spend a weekend there so they know my kids are not always sour puss.

so much for child proof caps

This morning Austin asked for his vitamin, which I had not given him yet. I was getting into the shower at this point. I said sure and was coming out to give it to him, by the time I got to the table he was chewing one. He managed to get the vitamin bottle open even though it had a child proof top. So I guess I will not be able to leave the bottle on the table anymore because he really likes to take his vitamins and asks to have them several times a day.

Austins new towel

I made Austin a new hooded towel because he has out grown his and we are using them on Savannah now. He really seams to like it, it's much bigger then the baby ones and much softer.

Savannah is 2 months

So today Savannah turned 2 months old. She is now weighing in at 13.8 lbs and 22.5 inch. She is quite the porker!! Everything is going well with her. She even took naps today!! The doctor said that we could put her in the saucer and jumper because she doesn't like her back which means the bouncer and swing are pretty much out. So we tried this today and her head kept bobbing forward so I found this thing (hugga bebe) on line but didn't want to pay the $27-40 for it so I made one for her. She enjoyed the bouncer much better with it. I think I need to move the front down a bit. Austin also enjoyed this it was much easier for him to play with her which he really enjoys.

Girly things

Now we need more purple outfits to wear it with

I have become obsessed with making girly things. I have been dying to have one of those hats with the big flowers on the side as well as the headbands. So I finally figured out how to crochet a beanie hat and then I attached a big flower on the side. I think it looks pretty cute. here is a picture of the hat, I have not put the headband on her yet.

sleep

Savannah is 8 wks as of Friday. And for the most part she is a really good baby except that she cries in the car the entire ride and nothing we do stops her from crying. And then there is the sleep factor. Up to last week she slept most of the time any wear you would put her as long as it was on her stomach (I know, I know). Then this past Sunday she decided to only sleep if someone was holding her and this unfortanitly has been going on all week. So yesterday she only slept at the begining of the sesame street show. So when we went to bed last night she slept good. So good that it was Robs alarm that went of at 630 am!! When I realized what time it was I sat right up in a panic for fear that she was not breathing threw her blanket off and found she was fine of course. I was happy that I got to sleep 6.5hrs w/o interuption once I figured out she was still breathing today she pretty much is doing the same thing, so we will see how she sleeps tonight.

Sesame Street

Last night Granny took Austin Savannah and mommy to see sesame street. Austin had a really good time. we were not far from the stage and when they first came out Austin just stopped and stared he couldn't take his eys off of the characters. Austin was pretty tired and even fell a sleep on the way and then again on the way home. Savannah did really well she slept for the first half then even watched the lights (I think) for the second half. Thank you Granny!!
