4 months!

Callie is growing like a weed!  She is rolling over and experimenting with her new found voice in different pitches.  Dan and I just laugh at her :)  We love waking her up in the mornings and watching her stretch as she wakes and doesn't want to get out of her warm crib.  I can't blame her!  We are looking forward to her first Christmas and spending it with both families as Kalo's are traveling to Ohio this year.  Stay tuned for holiday photos in the coming weeks!

Callie's first encounter with Santa :)

Aaron is home from Iraq and came to meet Callie!

Callie tried rice cereal for the first time on Thanksgiving ... not a big fan!

She loves this position when her tummy hurts.

3 Months!

Callie is now 3 months old!  She loves to be a part of the action and always know what's going on.  She is grabbing onto our clothes and her blankets as she is learning about her hands.  Her smiles light up our days and she enjoys "talking!"  This week I washed up her 6 month clothes since she has officially outgrown the 3 month ones!  She spent a weekend with Grandma and Grandpa Lindsay while we went away to Chicago and did wonderful!  In addition, I returned to work last week and believe it or not, we all survived!  Although I hate to leave her, Callie seems to enjoy the sitter.  We hope you enjoy the pictures!

She's getting better at sitting up but only for a short amount of time!

Such a big girl!

Callie was helping Mom do laundry :)

Our anniversary get away to Chicago!

Happy baby!

Callie is getting so big!

Whitney and Will came to visit us at the end of October. 

Will is 2 weeks older than Callie ... I don't think she's boy crazy yet!

who took great care of her while Dan and I were busy with

the wedding!

2 Months!

At her 2 month check up she weighed in at 12 lbs 4 oz (90th percentile) and received 4 shots as well.  What an experience!  She's doing well overall, continues to eat like a champ, and loves attention!  Callie sleeps from midnight until about 5 am each night, eats, and then falls back asleep.  We are making progress!  Hopefully in the next couple weeks we can establish some type of a routine before I head back to work...wish us luck!

"I'm trying to sit up straight Mom!  Hurry!"

"Is this photo shoot over yet because I'm getting hungry!"

"All done!"

Tummy time!

Baptism at St. Pat's

We had a beautiful day for Callie's Baptism!  She was very cooperative and even smiled when they poured the water over her head :)  She loves bath time so that was no surprise.  Afterward we had brunch back at the house which was delicious.

Parents Day Away -- OSU Game

Dan I went to an OSU game as part of his role on the OSU Counseling Advisory Board.  He was able to meet Archie Griffin which made his day as you can imagine!

Callie is beginning to enjoy time on her tummy!

Bundled up watching football with Dad!  

She loves football, can't you tell?  :)

Great Uncle Dave feeds Callie while the rest of us eat!

Callie wasn't thrilled she didn't get any of Dad's birthday cake :)

Update

Callie is growing so quickly!  She has discovered the little mobile above her swing and enjoys looking at the leaves going around.  She makes great eye contact with us and smiles up a storm during the day.  She's already in 3 month clothes and was in the 75th percentile at our last appointment!  We are making progress with nighttime...she will now sleep 4 straight hours which is wonderful!  Stay tuned for more pics...
