Happy Birthday Beth !!!! We Love you

So today is Beth's birthday, I want to wish her the best Kahneeta trip ever and the happiest of birthdays. Me and Eleanor miss you mom/wife very much. We are having a great bonding time, having already been to Noni's work, and her very first trip to Guitar Center.

Killer Birthday Ride

Special thanks to my brothers on wheels Jeff and Josh for the AWESOME ride on my birthday. Best ride of my life. Thanks a million to Mary for the great healthy dinner. Thanks Jeff for driving. And best of all to my perfect wife for staying with my daughter so I could go play with the boys. Boy am I sore!

Happy Birthday Dustin!

Happy Birthday to a wonderful husband, father, friend, provider, nurse, brother, son, grandson and all the others..... I love you very much "D"! Hope you have a great birthday!

Eleanor Laughs...

Eleanor now smiles and laughs all the time. Dustin and I will tickle her feet then she will smile and try to pull her foot away. It is amazing to see her change everyday. Her personality is beginning to show already, she is getting so big.

Doctor's Appointment

Eleanor went to the doctor yesterday for her 2 month check up. She now weighs 12 pounds 3.5 ounces. She is 22 and 1/4 inches long. She is growing so fast! The doctor said she looks healthy and happy. The bad thing is she had to get her immunization shots and she was not happy. We gave her some Tylenol and she slept ok last night.

WE GOT A SWING!

We purchased a swing and Eleanor loves it. Dad did the wonderful honor of picking it out and I must say he did a wonderful job. Eleanor loves to just sit and swing and stare at the mobile. I am so happy this may give me some more time to finish the laundry and do other jobs around the house during the day. Money well spent!! The second picture is an action picture...she wouldn't let me stop the swing...so it is a bit blurry.

Also, all swings are battery operated now...how wierd? When I was growing up I remember having to crank a handle and it was very loud to get the swing to work. I am getting old, now I am saying "remember when".

Eleanor and Daddy...

Eleanor is getting so big so fast! We go to the doctor on September 9th for her 2 month check up. We are very excited to see how much she weighs and how long she has gotten over the past few weeks. She will now smile at you when you talk to her. She also likes to talk back in a mumble. I am loving the fact that she sleeps through the night, HORRAY!! She is such a joy!
