Say Cheese




Ohh...how she smiles and cheeses for us now. She is begining to talk in her own language...wish I could have caught that Oprah show earlier this week. She went in this week for her 2 month old shots and she did really well that day. The following day however, she began to have a possible mild reaction to them-upset stomach for a while..Mommy had to go pick her up from day care and bring her back to the hospital to check her out. Thank goodness I work there! Work for mom is going well now that she's back into the swing of things and starting to get back into the workout too. Gotta fit into the wedding dress.

Queen of the King


So here she is this week once again trying to take up the king size bed...It's been a hard week and a half to take pictures because by the time we get home we're running around trying to get stuff ready for the next day or just relaxing spending time with Constance. It's hard to believe she's getting to be so big. This morning I had her sitting in her bouncer chair while I was getting ready and she was reaching out for the toys (they make different sounds as she touches them) and she finally started to realize this and kept doing it. I was so excited. Scott's being a wonderful dad picking her up in the early afternoons and they come home to watch cartoons and take a nap. I start school this week. American History since 1900 and Epidemiology. Thankfully I saved some of my better history papers from High School and College so I be recycling those bad boys and modifying them! Right now I estimate that she's weighing in around 13.5 to 14 lbs. She's getting close to being out of her 3 month clothing and I've already gone to the Consignment store to get her 6-9 month clothing for the rest of the winter. Scott and I found a couple of cute Christmas outfits. This weekend it looks like she's going to take her first long road trip to Minneapolis to see her Aunt Charlene. This will be a test to see how she does with driving since we'll probably be driving out to D.C. for Christmas this year. Well gotta go do some homework. Love Erica, Scott, and Constance
