| I am a growing boy, weighing in at 12 lbs, 1 oz and 23 inches in length. |
 |
| Touchdown! This is my favorite sleeping position so I am no longer in a swaddle at night. My arms wanted out and my feet soon followed. |
 |
| When I am awake, I am alert and happy! |
 |
| I am good at tolerating my sister's constant touching and talking to me |
 | ||
| Soon, I will be talking back to her |
 |
| The best thing about Riverbanks Zoo in Columbia is that it is only about an hour away, plus thanks to Grandpa & MaGa Gette, we have a membership so it's free! I always enjoy posing for pictures on all the animals! |
 |
| Soon, I will be too big for this little dinosaur! |
 |
| The penguins were the first stop and one of my favorites |
 |
| Emerson was thrilled about his first trip to the zoo (I know his face doesn't show it) |
 |
| This lizard is the perfect size for me to show my length |
 |
| The orangutan is BIG so all of us can climb on him- Emerson will soon be climbing with me! |
 |
| Thanks to godmother Erin for this great sticker that says I am an Awesome Big Sister! |
 |
| While getting ready for bed that night, I read a story to Emerson |
 |
| I bet he is going to love Thomas and books as much I do! |
 |
| At my friend, Chloe's, birthday party, I got to dress up like a princess and go to a tea party. |
 |
| Here's some princess jewelry we made |
 |
| We even got our hair sprayed with our favorite color |
 |
| Of course, I picked pink! |
 |
| Emerson was the only boy there so he was a prince! |
 |
| It was tiring to charm all the ladies! |
 |
| It is easier to hold my brother with the boppy |
 |
| We have some conversations already |
 |
| Showing off my "cool" clothes |
 |
| All dressed up & ready to see Thomas! |
 |
| The North Carolina Transportation Museum has some cool old trains to explore |
 |
| But my favorite engine is Thomas! |
 |
| Daddy, Emerson & I were on-board and ready to ride |
 |
| Look at all the neat stuff out the window |
 |
| I think Thomas' magnet can stick here |
 |
| Emerson enjoyed the ride too! |
 |
| "Emerson, I can't wait to teach you all about Thomas & his friends" |
 |
| "I will even share my train conductor hat with you" |
 |
| Maybe one day I can be a train conductor |
 |
| It's always fun to play on other tracks |
 |
| Along for the ride |
 |
| Mommy and me got to ride a real turntable! |
 |
| Hold on tight while it's moving! |
 |
| Walking on the rails is like walking on a balance beam |
 |
| The Thomas slide is always fun |
 |
| Thomas and I are best buddies |
 |
| Daddy was surprised that I beat him out of the hay maze |
 |
| The day wouldn't be complete without a Thomas tattoo! |
