Fun at the Grocery Store

Mommom agreed to meet us halfway to pick us up so we could spend the week at her house. I have had so much fun - On Monday I went to the grocery store with her. HEB has this awesome car grocery cart! I loved every minute of it - as you can tell!

I am 2 1/2 Years Old! August 2, 2009

I had lots of fun taking pictures with my little sign:)

Kate is One Month Old! August 2, 2009

Kate is one month old today! We can't believe how fast it has gone! According to Wii Fit she weighs about 8lbs, 3oz. She is becoming more alert everyday & has longer awake times, although Mommy still has to wake her up for some of her feedings. She cries very little & is content most of the time. She is such a blessing to us!

Here is my 1 month old photo - I think we are definitely brother & sister! Don't you think?

Kate Goes to Church!

On Sunday morning we took Kate to church for the first time! She enjoyed herself - She slept in Daddy's arms the whole time! When Mommy picked me up from Sunday School, my teacher told Mommy that I talked about my sister Kate the whole morning!

MANisms

Daddy was leaving for work one morning this week & I thought he was leaving without hugs - I ran to the door & called out, "I want a hug Daddy!"

As Mommy was putting me to bed the other night I told her, "I want to ride a concrete truck!"

While BB was here she was cooking dinner & had opened the fridge - I stood in it to help her. When she was ready to close the fridge she gently put her hand on my shoulder so that I would move. I looked up at her & said, "Don't push me BB. Don't push me!"

Fun words: Triangle - tritrangle; Fire Engine - fire in; Chip - chup; Pillow - pullow

When I want to do something by myself I say, "My do it!" or "Michael do it!"

When I don't want something to happen I say, "No, I not." Example: "Michael, do you need your diaper changed?" "No, I not."

Holding Kate

Mommy & I survived our first full week with Kate by ourselves! I was a great helper to Mommy! There were a few times when she looked really tired & teary - I would say, "What happened Mommy? What happened?" We stayed busy this week - we played at Molly's house, I went to Mother's Day Out, we took Kate to the mall & to the grocery store & we went for several walks to enjoy the beautiful weather! No wonder Mommy is tired! :) I did such a good job at sharing Mommy's attention with Kate. I love being a big brother! I either want to hold her, kiss her & give her hugs or I just ignore her:) I act like she has always been a part of our family! Mommy & Daddy are so happy that I am adjusting so well! Many times this week I really wanted to hold Kate. I would tell Mommy, "I want to hold her! Hold Kate Mommy!" "Take a picture Mommy! Take another picture!"

I show a lot of interest in Kate's little hands & feet.

I love holding Kate's hand.

My First Dress!

Last Sunday Mommy realized that Kate hadn't worn a dress yet!

We had such a fun week with BB! Thank you BB for all you did for us! Last weekend Papa joined us too & we had a great time! Thank you Papa for helping Daddy with all the house projects!
