Happy 1 Month!!

Yesterday Skylar turned 1 month old. We made her a strawberry pie in honor of the big day, but she opted for her trusty milk instead while Amy and I enjoyed the pie.

Word 2 Yo Mama!

Rub-a-Dub-Dub

Today Skylar took her first bath in her bathtub. She seemed to like playing in the water and getting soaped up for the first time.

Kick and Crawl

Today Skylar enjoyed playing on her kick and crawl....thanks Auntie Tricia!

First Phone Call

Today Skylar had her first phone call. Her Grandma Needelman talked to her one on one and Skylar listened quite intently.

Spin Me Around!

Today Skylar tried out her new toy from her Aunt Jennifer. She tried the spinning, but her arms are too short to support her right now. However, she did like playing with the different toys attached to it while she was on her belly. Riley wanted to play with them also and was sad when we wouldn't let her.

All Dressed Up

Yesterday we all went over to the house of some new friends and Skylar wore her first dress...thanks for the sundress Grandma Campbell!

Forget the Pacifier....This Is Much Better!

Skylar somehow managed to get my finger in her mouth and when we tried to replace it with the pacifier she refused to take it and wanted my finger instead.

All Ducked Out!

Today was bath day for Skylar and afterwards she was pretty cold so we put her in her first pants outfit. Thanks Aunt Jennifer for the duck outfit, it's really warm!

Sleepin' Moms

Skylar decided she did not want to sleep much last night, so Amy and I were napping on and off all day long.

Quilt Time

Skylar and Riley like to relax on the quilt that Amy's Aunt Julie made for Skylar.

First Walkabout

Yesterday we took our first walk around the neighborhood and introduced Skylar to some of our neighbors. She seemed to like the stroller and fell asleep before we got back home.

2 Week Update

Yesterday Skylar had her 2 week appointment. She is now weighing in at a whopping 9lbs 9oz, and has grown from 21 to 22 inches. For the outing she made an environmental statement in her Earth Day attire.

For Any Of You Who Were Still Wondering......

.......She Has Strawberry Blonde Hair

Stealing Riley's Thunder

Before Skylar, Riley was usually the subject of our impromptu photo sessions. Today I was trying to take some pictures of Skylar , but Riley was rather persistent about getting her picture taken too and not having her thunder stolen.

Staying Cool

Today Skylar went out on the town and took her Grandma Needelman to the airport. For the occasion she wore her super cool Ralph Lauren outfit that her Auntie Kristen and Emily bought for her. It was perfect for today because it was 96 degrees and REALLY HOTTTTT!

Bjorning It!

Skylar and I tried out the Baby Bjorn this morning. She seemed to like it for awhile, until she got fussy and wanted to go to sleep.

Calvin Klein Baby

Grandma Needelman bought me an awesome Calvin Klein shirt that I'm rockin' in this pic. In the words of Will Smith, "I make this look GOOD!"

No Thanks....I'll Hold It

Today Skylar decided she wanted to hold the bottle while Amy was feeding her.

Sleep-n-Smile

Skylar seems to be having very happy dreams. She hasn't smiled for us yet while awake, but when she's sleeping she gives us smiles a plenty.

First Bath

Yesterday Skylar got her first sponge bath since coming home. I don't think she cares much for the bath part, but she loves getting her hair washed and combed.

Bouncing Baby

Skylar tried out her rainforest bouncer today. I don't know how much she enjoyed it, but Riley certainly enjoyed giving her kisses on the face and feet.

Homecoming

Skylar came home last Sunday. Grandma and Grandpa Needelman and Riley were waiting for us when we got home. She also had her first doctor's appointment on Monday and received an all clear.
