Baptism Sunday!

I got dressed up so pretty in my baptism gown. It was my mommy's, so it is very special.

Here's another posed picture of me. My mom wanted to get the full length of my baptism gown. I like to get dressed up.

Here I am posing with my Baptism cake and flowers. I had to change out of my gown, because I was too slippery to hold onto (with all that silk/nylon).

Here's my mom showing off the "spread" of food for our brunch afterwards. She got some help from Grandma Patti and Great Grandma LaVerne. All the food was so yummy!

Here I am with Grandma Sue after the Baptism. She and Grampy Bill drove up all the way from Omaha to see me get baptized.

I got pretty sleepy after the ceremony. Here I am with my mom and dad and Grandma Patti and Grandpa Ed.

Daddy's holding me on his lap. I'm wearing the baptism gown that my mom wore 32 years ago (wow...my mom is old!).

Me with mom and dad. This baptism thing was exhausting ;)

My Godfather, Jon is holding me here with my Godmother, Sadie.

Another family picture. This time I'm with Grampy Bill, Grandma Sue and of course my mommy and daddy.

Pastor Ann is baptizing me here. I was pretty fussy up until my head got wet...because I thought I was getting a bath (and I love to take a bath!)

Oops..looks like I lost one of my sockies. Daddy's holding me as I get baptized.

Start Daycare & Mom's Back to Work

I am TWO MONTHS old here. Mom and dad thought they'd put me in my Bumbo to see if I could sit with assistance. Verdict is I need a few more weeks. At my 2 month check up I weighed 9.4 lbs (12th percentile) and am 21 1/8 inches (8th percentile). I'm healthy!

I think my daddy is pretty funny. I like to smile at him!

Daddy takes me to daycare at Juniors. My mom picks me up. I've gotten good reports for the first 3 days I've been there. I started on the 15th.

I'm a good sleeper! I'm taking a nap here in mom and dad's bed...but I can sleep 9 hours through the night. Mostly 8pm to 5am.

Mom likes to put me in this carrier. I like it too. I'm used to being the other way. I like to look at mom.

It's already fall weather here in Fargo. Like 65 for a high temp. Grandma Sue sent me some pants and mom got me this sweatshirt so I can still wear short sleeves under it.

Anniversary Weekend

Grandma Sue stayed with Paige for 2 entire nights! We got home and she just woke up from her nap. Grandma Sue has the touch.

Paige got a new Puma track suit and a Leap Frog activity center from Grandma Sue. That was her favorite! She still smiles and can't take her eyes off it! Mom and Dad have learned "hello" in 5 different languages too.

We got to spend our 1st Anniversary driving up the North Shore in MN. We went to Duluth, Lutsen and Grand Marais. It was beautiful! We enjoyed our time together!

Here we are in Duluth. Had to ask a stranger to take our picture! :)

One of our favorite activities during the weekend was the Alpine Slide on the Lutsen Mountains. We took a chair lift up and went down on these sleds...it was so fun!

Lake Superior was like an endless ocean. The shores/beaches were so beautiful. The weather was like 60 and perfect.

We hiked up to Honeymoon Bluff off the Gunflint Trail. The view was amazing. We had a great 1st Anniversary. It was so relaxing to be able to get away for a couple days knowing our little Paige was in good hands back in Fargo with Grandma Sue.
