My Big Boy

I feel like Robby hasn't gotten enough time on the blog lately, so I decided to give him his own posting today. He really is a great big brother. He loves his little sister, and so far he really has not displayed a lot of jealousy. He has gotten to have some fun adventures this month, and here are some snapshots of those.

Robby and Pahpah on the big red tractor!

It is so fun to move dirt!

Robby has learned a fake camera smile. I wonder who taught him that??


We Texans find 50 degrees a little cold to go galvanting around in, so we have to dress appropriately


Robby loved the bounce house at his school's fall carnival.


Robby loved the mohawk when we showed it to him in the mirror.

My Sweet Girl

Juliet will be six weeks old on Friday. I can't believe it. She is doing just great. When we took her in for her one week checkup, she is already up to 9lb 6oz from 7lb 2oz at birth. She was in the 50% in weight and 90% for height (not like that measurement is overly accurate at this point though). She has started sleeping for up to 7 hours at a time at night and then feeding and sleeping for another 4 or so hours, so we are doing good on that front as well. She also has started smiling at us sometimes which is just the best.

Sadly, she has lost all of her front hair, so she looks like we gave her a monk's tonsure. I use bows to cover this up :)

Here are some recent pics:


Such a sweet outfit :)

Juliet loves baths. We call them her spa days

Halloween

So, I know I am quite late on this, but here are some fun pics from Halloween. Robby had a big trick or treat event at school that Bryan got to participate in--they went around to local businesses who passed out candy. Robby loved the whole thing!

Juliet did not go trick or treating this year, but I couldn't resist putting her in a little outfit for some pics. She is doing just great. She eats well and is working on sleeping in her own bed at night. Her alert periods are growing longer, and she is generally a contented baby. She loves to be held more than anything else in the world.

Robby loves being a big brother. He is very affectionate with Juliet, and he always want to share with her and to play with her. However, sometimes this tendency can have negative results, such as the time he snuck into her room while she was napping and started piling toys on top of her....
