Aunt Kari's Birthday Celebration

Aunt Kari was out of town for business on her actual birthday so we celebrated with her the next night at our favorite Mexican spot. Mommy forgot to pack the camera so we didn't get any pictures at the restaurant, but she took pictures afterward at our house. Daddy had to go back into work, so Aunt Kari and Aunt Susan came back to our place to help mommy decorate for my birthday party. I love it when my aunts are over!!!!

I also love "mal-malows"!
"What in the world is going on?" thinks Vivi
"I think my aunts are crazy!"
Ok, Aunt Susan. You're not crazy and yes I will cuddle with you!
Aunt Kari pretended to be asleep! Ha, ha Aunt Kari!

Dinner with Friends / Vivi's 5 Weeks Old

My Baby sister is 5 weeks old today, it is Aunt Kari's 29th birthday and we have some special friends bringing us dinner tonight!! Yippee!

My friend Kaylee and her parents made us dinner and brought it to our house tonight. It was yummy. I especially liked the breadsticks! Kaylee and I have so much fun playing together. In January, I am going to start taking gymnastics with her. I can't wait!!!

What a day! Vivi and I are pooped!

I love it when daddy tucks me in!

Vivi meets Hudson

You might remember that just over a month ago, pregnant mommy and I went to Lyndie's house to meet baby Hudson who was only 3 weeks old and his big brother Cooper. Well, this time Lyndie and baby Hudson brought us lunch and came to our house to meet my baby sis. We had yummy pizza and breadsticks! Hudson has grown and changed so much in the last 6 weeks since we first met him. His parents call him "cheeks"! He is such a cutie! Here is the size difference between 9 week old Hudson and Vivi who is amost 5 weeks.

Vivi is 1 month old!!!

I can't believe my baby sister is already one month old! She is so much fun to talk to and hold. Here are some of her stats from her one month (5.5 weeks) pediatrician visit:

Weight: 10lbs 1.6oz (61st percentile)

Length: 21.5 inches (48th percentile)

Head: 38cm (58th percentile)

Vivi recently started "cooing" and is starting to smile back at us. We love her little noises. She is such a good baby. She is still sleeping alot but is doing great at night. She goes down for the night around 9:30 or 10 and wakes up around 2 - 3AM for a feeding, then not up again until around 6 - 7 AM for the day! Awesome!

I guess she didn't like her picture being taken!

Pappaw Babysits for Megan's Reception

Mommy's friend Megan married Chance and mommy and daddy were invited to their wedding reception downtown. So, Pappaw came to babysit for Vivi and I while they were gone. We had so much fun with Pappaw!! He watched Diego with me and played. I even fell asleep in my bedroom with the light on and with Wrigley. ;) Thanks for watching us Pappaw!! We love you!

Vivi's First Dinner Outing with Vivi

Aunt Kari and Uncle Mark invited us out to dinner with them spur of the moment on a Friday night. Athough we had gone out to eat once with baby Vivi for breakfast, this was our first dinner outing. Vivi was super great as she slept the whole time. Uncle Mark kept me occupied so I was pretty good too. We ate at a new place calledv Chatham Tap in Fishers really close to home!

Uncle Mark is so silly. He made going out to eat at my crazy age fun for all of us...mommy and daddy want to take him everywhere with us now! Ha!
My crazy sourpuss face...LOVELY!!!

Daddy is silly too!

Sweet baby Viv!

Vivi's first bottle / 3 Weeks Old

My baby sister is 3 weeks old already and she had her first bottle today. She did really well with it even though she doesn't look happy in this picture. :) She is nursing well too, but mommy knew if she wanted to go anywhere she would have to get her to take a bottle.

Baby Vivi is really starting to feel at home. She loves mommy and daddy like I do! I weighed 8 lbs 2 oz. when I was born and now Vivi weighs a little more than I did when I was born.

Happy Halloween

This year for Halloween I was......

Dora the Explorer!!!
I helped Daddy carve a pumpkin in my pumpkin shirt that Grandma Cindy got for me.

..and in my Scaredy Cat shirt.

Daddy wore my wig when I took it off.

Austin was DJ Lance Rock from Yo Gabba Gabba!!

Vivi wore her pumpkin hat...but it is not on her in this picture.

We went trick-or-treating at Grammy's house and then to some of Austin's neighbors. See, I didn't leave my wig on for long at all. I carried 'Boots' the monkey with me though.

We also went to a few of our neighbors houses. Daddy took me to the door.

I love candy so Halloween is definitely one of my favorite holidays!!
