A New Cousin!

Lillian Avery VanDeusen arrived via c-section on Monday, December 22, 2008 at 7:50am. She is 7lbs.15 oz. and is 21 inches long. I have a cough and runny nose so I couldn't go see her, but Daddy sent us a picture from the hospital. I can't wait to meet her!

I got my ears pierced!

Yesterday, December 22nd was a special day for me. Mommy and Gram took me to the mall to get my ears pierced. Mommy was more nervous than me, but I was a big girl. I cried a little bit, but just for a few seconds. Now maybe people will stop mistaking me for a boy!

This was me right after they did the second one. I was upset but only cried briefly.

This was how they made Mommy hold me so I wouldn't move.

4 Months Old & My First Visit with Santa

I met Santa for the first time ever on Saturday. I think I like him, he seems like a pretty nice guy! The pictures of me in the pink and brown dress (that Aunt Stacey bought me) are my 4 month old pictures. I am holding my head up, but not sitting up on my own yet. Mommy is actually holding me up under the sheet! As you can see, I am still working on getting hair!

Most Huggable Baby Pictures

These are the pictures from the Magic 107.7 Most Huggable Babies photo shoot. It was so neat- I got to go to the radio station and be photographed by Christie McQueeen from Moderne Capture studios. It was a lot of fun and of course Mommy just loves the pictures!!

Here we are!!!!!

It has been a while since we have updated you.. For starters, we ran out of room on the website, so we decided to get a blog instead. Mommy will still send out emails when we update, but now you can bookmark my site and check whenever you want! :) Some of my birthday info and pictures are on here as well.
So, let me fill you in on what has been happening...
October
I stared "school" at Star Child Academy. I am doing well so far and the teachers rave about how good I am. It was really hard for Daddy to leave me the first day, be he has adjusted well. Mommy picks me up every afternoon and I am always glad to see her.
On October 12th, I was baptized at St. Mary Magdalen Church. It was a very special weekend for me. I met my cousins and my Aunt Lenore. After the ceremony at church we had all of our family over for dinner. It was a fun day for me! My Godparents are Uncle Andy, Aunt Stacey, and Aunt Noelle.

My family and friends who came to celebrate with me!

I went to Aunt Amy & Uncle Adams for dinner and a trip to the pumpkin patch. We even carved pumpkins. We also went to Green Meadows Farm with Trace, Michelle, and Vic. Although I enjoyed being outside, I think Trace, Daddy, and Vic had the most fun!

November
I spent lots of time with Grandma & Grandpa this month. Mommy and Daddy went to 2 weddings so they were here babysitting. We had a great time, Grandma even took me shopping! I also spent some time with Miss Chris who watched me while Mommy and Daddy were working late. November 22nd was a milestone for me. I was at Uncle Andy & Aunt Jacquie's house for dinner with Mommy and I rolled over 3 times! It is so much fun that I do it every chance I get now! We celebrated Thanksgiving this month. Mommy and Daddy took crazy pictures of me (as you can see) and I had a long weekend off from school.
