So much fun...so little time!



We have been enjoying these last weeks of summer vacation and they have gone by too quickly!

Here is some of the fun that we have been up to lately:

We went to Lake Geneva for a day and got to see Melissa and Brian. We especially love the lake and the entire downtown area! We got to hang out together and do a little shopping.

Aunt Kimmy came to visit and we had lots of fun shopping and walking around and watching movies! We really miss our aunties and our family a lot!!!

We went to Milwaukee to the annual Brand pig roast and had lots of fun! Annabel had to wear a huge sun hat to keep her out of the sun and she was not a fan. She got to meet some very lovely people and had lots of cuddles! It is something she will really look forward to every year!

Also, at 12 weeks 1 day...ANNABEL ROLLED OVER! Not just one time but first she rolled from her back to her front and then almost immediately kicked around and rolled from her front to her back! She is getting so big!

Baby is 2 months old today!








Annabel is now 2 months old and is becoming such a fun baby! She is a very happy, content, sweet, and funny little lady! We are enjoying every minute with her!

At 2 months, Annabel:
*Makes all kinds of noises and sometimes loudly (wonder where she gets that from?)!
*Will make these noises when you are talking to her as though she is talking back!
*Noticing herself in mirrors
*Punching and grabbing at the toys on her play gym. She can amuse herself for quite a long while in there! She also talks to the animals!
*She can follow you with her eyes when you enter a room
*She can hold her head and shoulders up while on her tummy
*Kicks her legs while playing all the time
*Sleeps for 4-5 hour stretches at a time
*Sticks her tongue out at you if you do it first
BEST OF ALL....

ANNABEL SMILES!!! It is the most beautiful thing we have ever seen! She smiles when you go to her first thing in her bassinet and she smiles back at you if you do it first or if you make funny faces and sounds!

You are a true joy, Annabel! We love you and can't wait to see what our beautiful and smart little lady shows us next!
