Which one is a morning creature???

I am, obviously... just like my Daddy! Big bro Hank looks like he could use some more Z's. Mommy prefers to sleep in and have a slow start to her mornings --- without too much human interaction before caffeine consumption.

bathing beauty

I LOVE the water... what can I say? I'm a Pisces! The sunglasses, however, I could do without.

this is bigger than my bathtub...

Mom & Dad took me to the country club today so I could have my first official swimming pool experience! This wasn't anything like the inflatable jobbies I've been in! I was skeptical at first... but I think I liked it.

Fun-bo in the Bumbo

Mom just got me a Bumbo... my first big girl chair! My face in this picture doesn't accurately illustrate how much I really do enjoy it; but I DO!

My first vacay!

The Mycoskie fam went to the lake house up at Lake Texoma in July. Mom kept me out of the sun and I didn't get one mosquito bite! I finally got to meet my Uncle Kevin & Uncle Craig and soon-to-be Aunt Amy. They were awesome!

The best part of the trip was getting to wear my new mermaid swimsuit. :)

What in the world are these?

I don't know, but I like to play with them a lot! Pretty cool discovery... I wonder how long they've been down there? Huh. Mom got really excited when I grabbed them and rolled around... so I guess I'll continue until I figure out what purpose they serve.

4 month appointment

Well, good news: I survived!!! Like the 2 month appointment, I got one oral vaccination and two shots. I screamed bloody murder for about 30 seconds (mom said it felt like 30 hours), and then I realized the pain was gone. After that, they slapped some pretty cool band-aids on the wound sites. :)

4 month stats:

weight: 12.8 lbs. (mom & dad think the scale was broken)
height: 24.5 inches (long & lean!)

The doc wrote "perfect" on the piece of paper she gave to my mom, but since my weight is only in the 30th percentile, we're gonna try to plump me up a bit. Cue formula supplementation... which is SO NOT BREASTMILK.

Happy 4th of July!

My mommy looks for any excuse to shop for me... so when holidays come around, I must be adorned in the appropriate attire! Daddy pointed out that I have a whole closet full of clothes already, but Mommy had a great point that none are red, white and blue. So today I am showing my patriotic pride!
It was too hot for me to be outside and watch fireworks... so I wore them on my dress instead. :)

father-daughter movie time

I actually think we were watching tennis when Mommy took these pictures. I really like that sport... and Mommy says that with my grip, I'll be a great player!

Naptime with my Pops

Father-daughter time is the BEST.

4 Generational Pic

Grandma and Honey came over the other day, so mom took a picture of the 4 generations. This was obviously taken before the heat reached 'surface of the sun' temps.

My first giggles!

Daddy makes funny noises... and until now I would just look at him enigmatically. But apparently, when I giggle, it sends my parents over the moon! They keep acting weird, and I keep giggling... we think it's a pretty humorous cycle. :) Mom was able to catch my first giggles on camera.

Story time!

Aunt Sissy bought me a really neat book... I'm not sure what it's about, but I know it has big, colorful pictures in it! Mommy took some pics of Aunt Sissy & Nawni reading to me today. As you can see, I was quite engrossed...

Fun with friends

I got to meet one of my mommy's good friends, Fran, from high school... hopefully she and her husband will have a baby so I can have a playmate! Their spawn will no doubt be liberal, but mommy raises me not to be judgemental (besides, they'll see the light eventually).

1st Birthday Party

My friend, McKenzie, turned one last week and her parents threw her a big birthday party! I'm looking forward to mine, even though it's 8 months away.
