Nap Time With Dad



Like father, like daughter; they really are two peas from the same pod!!!

Black and white photos of bath time!!! Priceless...

2 Month Birthday Party

This is before I realized all I was getting for my birthday was sitting right in front of me. And to think I was patient long enough for Mom to sneak one picture of me?!?!

It's my party...

and I'll cry if I want to...

cry if I want to...

you would cry too...if all your Mom gave you for your birthday was this unlit candle!!!

Dinner Time

This is me after my dinner bottle, just chillin' in my swing...

This is me watching Grandma Estok cook my Mommy and Daddy dinner...Molly looks like she wants whatever it is they're having!!

This is what my family looks like full! What a happy family!!!

Nap Time

They say you aren't supposed to sleep with your child because they may become too attached, seriously who and how could ANYONE pass up an opportunity like this?!?!

Fun at Yia-Yia's...well at least for me!!!

Who can resist my smile?!?!

Mom leaves and Yia-Yia leaves me to play on the changing mat...I guess that is how people show they love one another!!!

The cutest Tarheel fan, thanks to Aunt Katie for the onesie and Yia-Yia for my first pom-pom!!

Daddy those colors look REALLY good on you...too bad you pull for the wrong team...I am just glad Mommy puts up with you pulling for the wrong team!!! (Love you D!!)



Yo, Tyler...



Who's the bigger cry-baby? That has yet to be decided, but at least I look WAY cuter when I whine!!!

more highlights from my visit with AG



two thumbs up for AG!

















i'm not kidding, this baby can sleep anywhere, anytime, and preferably for 20-22 hours a day.
















anthony feeding AG for the first time...

















the hardest thing about feeding AG is finding creative ways to wake her up every 5 minutes while she's eating!
















she figured out how to stick out her tongue to make funny faces at the camera...

visiting with ashlynn

highlights from visiting with ashlynn this past weekend include:

getting to bathe her












watching anthony bathe her (okay, this was a staged photo op, but still cute)














shopping for ashlynn's first tarheel outfit















watching anthony change ashlynn's diaper (his first time ever changing a baby -- she had a blow out 30 seconds later)
