Skylar celebrated her first 4th of July. She watched her moms, aunt Jennifer and uncle Josh eat hot dogs and hamburgers straight from the grill. She was also able to get into the spirit of the holiday with her 4th outfit bought by her auntie Donna.
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.
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.
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.
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!
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.
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.
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.
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!
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.
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.
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.
