Vivian's Latest Trick - Watch Out!

Learning to stand!



And watching a cartoon with my biggest brother! (Well, actually, smiling at everyone in sight as my brother watches a cartoon.)

The Great Facebook Takeover . . .

Since it's almost effortless to upload photos from iPhoto to facebook, that's were most of my photos are ending up these days! One day perhaps I'll be creative (or find time) again and do a little more with this site, but in the meantime, here are some links to the Lee family adventures from June and July.

But first, a picture of the Cousins during our trip to MI . . .

April Fool's

I April Fooled the family with a chicken pot pie that wasn't. Since we have chicken pot pie with some regularity, this wasn't a stretch. However, it looked enough unlike a real pot pie (and I cannot lie with a straight face!) that they knew something was up. This one was made of pudding, bananas ("potatoes"), and "veggies" made (believe it or not) from salt water taffy. The kids actually liked it, but I had made a real pot pie, too, so that we could eat a decent dinner!

Vanity, vanity . . .

Already learning to admire herself in the mirror!

Napping at the Park on a Chilly March Morning

Baby Doll

OK, there may be just a little too much pink going on here! Oh well!

The Stats

Vivian had her 3-month check-up last week, and it turns out that she is a string bean - long and skinny!

Weight - 12 lbs, 5 oz. - 50th percentile
Height - 25 inches - off the chart!
And her head is right around the 50th percentile, too! Nice and round and perfect for bonnets - lol! (See below!)

Tummy Time!

The Mad Hatter

It all started when I decided that Vivian would need an "Easter bonnet." Unable to find one online that I liked and not wanting to drive all around town looking for the perfect baby bonnet, I found an easy pattern and made one out of white eyelet. It was so simple, inexpensive, and cute that I promptly went nuts and made bonnets to match the rest of her current wardrobe! I'm taking a break from my "mad hatting" but saw plenty more fabrics, trim, and ribbons to keep her head adorned with bonnets all throughout the spring and summer!

Little Sister Bling!

Hands!

I've gotten very good at using my hands to play with my toys and can also find my hands to suck on!

11-Week Smiles

Of course, mommy noticed my messy face AFTER taking these photos!

Happy Girl!

See How Strong I Am!

Practicing my sitting (with help!)



I'm not so sure I like this . . .



And practicing my standing!

Cutest Moccasins Ever!

Here's Vivian wearing her super cute moccasins from her Auntie K!

Vivian's New Quilt

Vivian received a beautiful new baby quilt made by her Great Aunt Sue. All three children have received similar quilts. (See the nursery photos from December 2008.) These quilts are works of art!

Better Late Than Never . . .

Finally, Christmas Photos! Vivian was less than a week old here, and Erica was looking a little tired!
