4th Month

Well here is the quilt shot. She is now 12 lbs and 2 oz and 23.5 inchs long. I was entering her weight into a website that charts them for you in the percentiles...and her 2 month weight was below the 3rd percentile..so I now know why the doc was so upset. now is in the lower part of the shaded area but she is now in the shaded area so that makes me happy. the doctor also is now satisfied with her growth. Her head is now completley covering the stars.... I cannot believe how long she is getting!

Lydia first Pirates game

Ok, so my husband is not the biggest Pirates fan but Lydia is...she loved the game and did so well while she was there. (Mark is having fun with the photo program we have, Dan finally showed him some tricks) We did get lucky b/c is was slightly cranky when we first got there, it was sooo humid. but once it cooled off we had no problems. Ever since Uncle Vince bought her that tee shirt in Flordia (Pirates training camp), he wanted to take her to a game. This was also her first trip out of state!

Lydia and I with the Jolly Roger, I would have rather got the parrot but this new mascot was the only one around for pictures.

Lydia with Uncle Vince and his friend Anne

Here is what she looked like as the Pirates took the field. So far she really loves watching sports. She will watch any sport you have on the television (even boxing!) I cannot wait for football season. Now I am glad that we dropped the $$$ for the season tickets for WVU football. I think she is going to really enjoy the games.

Happy Memorial Day!

After having a going away cookout on Friday, then Mary's high school graduation Friday night, then driving to spencer on Saturday for Braylon's birthday, then on Sunday having Mary's graduation party and then our neighbor's birthday party, mommy and Lydia were too tired to do anything today. so Dan and Kathy and Mike and Kelly came over and we had a little cookout..check out Lydia in her shades that Nonnie bought her. I have a picture of daddy trying them out but it will not upload.

Fred and Ethel

Don't they look like an old married couple

They absolutely would not pay any attention to us. They were watching television and would not look at us to take pictures. They are too cute. Everytime that Lydia would spit out her binky, Braylon would put it back in her mouth.

Happy Birthday Braylon

Here is Mommy and Lydia dressed in our

WVU theme outfits



Braylon kept wanting to hold Lydia..it was so cute

Lydia had a blast at Braylon's birthday party!! He had a WVU birthday party to go with his new WVU room and his new big boy bed.

Baptism 4-22-07

Ok, iti is a little late but here are the pictures from the baptism. She did great. She did not make a peep during the water being poured over her head but she did not like all the chrism Father put on her head afterwards.

My first picnic

family photo done by dan at valley falls. i was having a good hair day for once...almost makes me second guess my locks of love donation.....

this past weekend lydia's aunt kathy and uncle dan invited us to a picnic/cookout at valley falls. from the looks of this picture it would seem that lydia likes the outdoors as much as her mommy....but don't let her fool you. she loves being outside. she layed in her pack and play and watched the trees for several minutes. and in parent/baby time, that is as good as hours!
here is lydia and her godmother, aunt kathy
