Hello blogger fans! 

Daddy's silly, he makes me laugh! 

My friends Stasie and Manuel sent me this great Tigger bib from Spain. I love it, it makes me smile. 

One of the graduate students that works with my mom got an award for being the best in the whole university! Her name is Alegria and mom and I are both very proud of her, so we went to her award ceremony. (And in the background you can see Dr. Machen, the university president, who noticed me and said I was cute!) I was happier than I look here, by the way... 

I've had a very busy week, so I need to nap a lot. Below are a few pictures of what we've been doing. 

During the pledge drive at my dad's station (WUFT-FM, the local NPR affiliate), dad was on air so mom and I went in to answer phones. I got to play with my friend Debbie. 

Isn't this a cute outfit? My grandma Nancy knit me this sweater for when I was born, but I'm just growing into it now.  

Mommy makes me laugh a lot. 

We went to the awards ceremony for my mom's department. I saw a new building and met a whole bunch of people. 

But I still need to nap lots every day. Learning so much can be tiring! 

I get a little dimple in my right cheek when I smile, which my parents think is just adorable. What do you think? 

Oh my gosh! Can you believe I'm already two months old!?! 

We had a little party in the playpen with all my friends. 

And to celebrate my 2-month birthday I had to go to the doctor and get FIVE shots! This is the torture tray... isn't it scary? I was very brave though and I only cried a little. So did my mommy! 

I'm such a happy baby! Look at that smile! 

- and I laugh too! 

Mom and I had a play date today to walk around and eat lunch with some friends. Here I am with Sophia and her mother Jeniffer... 

... and this is me with my friend Kyle and his mother Susan. 

This one is for my grandfather (Grandickie) - if there was ever a "whose toes are those?!?" picture, this is it! 

Look, I found my thumb! Which is good, since I don't really like the pacifier.  

Zzzzzzz

You'll never believe this, but last Saturday night I went to bed around 10:30pm and slept until 5:15am! And the only reason I woke up then is because my parents were so worried about me that they woke me up! The next night, Easter, I actually slept from a little after 10pm until 6am! Isn't that amazing? Of course, I haven't done that since. But I'm pretty consistently sleeping 5 or 6 hours from the time I go to bed. That's pretty good considering that I only weigh about 8 and 1/2 pounds, so my stomach isn't all that big yet. Imagine how well I'll sleep when I'm big enough to hold a lot of food in there?!?
Here are some pictures from this past week. I'm growing, as always, and getting more active and more interactive. Next week I go to the doctor for my 2 month check-up. Time flies!

I do smile every now and then, really. It's just hard to capture it with the camera. But this is the tail end of a smile I had for Mr. Bear, who continues to be my favorite playpen companion. 

Sometimes I get soooo hungry that I'll nurse on anything, as long as it smells like the right person. Mommy's nose usually fools me for a few seconds. 

Grandma Nancy wanted to see me with fewer clothes on, to see how big I'm getting. I'm just out of the bath here, and you can see I'm chubbier than I was before... 

...and here are my chubby legs!
