Fall Fun!



Since I have last blogged, I have really been enjoying the fall season! I've watched lots of football and am anxiously awaiting my first Halloween! My parents took me to the pumpkin patch to get into the spirit!


We were also spectators at the Marathon and volunteered for the the MMRF on behalf of my late Grandma Goldermann:


Then last week, my mom and I went to the city to meet up with her friend, Elisa, who she used to work with at her old job. Elisa lives in Lakeview so I got to pass by Wrigley Field! It was raining, otherwise my mom would have taken me for a walk around the park! We had a very nice time with Elisa--here we are together!


Another fun thing I got to do was visit my Uncle Ron at the Rolling Meadows Fire Department where he is the Fire Chief! They had an open house for Fire Prevention week so we were able to see the firehouse and go into the trucks!  My Aunt Marcy, Uncle Al, Evalina and Grandpa Ron went too! We all had a great time!

Here's me sitting in the fire truck!

Later that night, my daddy went to the city for the weekend for a work conference. This was the first time it was just me and my mommy alone for a couple of days! My Grandma Saviano came over on Sunday to keep us company. We went to church and I loved it, I did not want to leave-I loved all the lights! After church, we went to lunch and for a walk with my brother, Guinness. Grandma even read us both a story!

 
As you can see, my first fall has been really fun, so far! I am looking forward to many more activities! Especially since my mommy is now going to stay at home with me full-time. She has left her job in order to spend more time with me! That means we are both free during the day so if you would like us to meet you for lunch, just let us know!

Two-month Updates!


Hello! A lot has happened since I have last blogged! Mainly, I turned two-months old! My parents said they can't believe how fast the time has gone!

Last Thursday, I went to the pediatrician for my two-month checkup. I like the pediatrician ok- they are very nice but sometimes they make me do stuff that I do not want to do. I don't like when they take off all my clothes so I can get weighed and measured. But, my mommy tells me that it's very important. I weighed 10lbs, 14 oz and am 21.5 inches tall! I have come along way from when I was first born and only weighed 5lbs, 15 oz and was 18 inches long! I also got some shots while I was there; I did not enjoy those at all!! Though, one shot I got to swallow and it tasted really good so I stopped crying when they gave me that! The next day after the shots, I was still very crabby! But I am better now and back to my old self!

I have been more awake and alert lately and been doing some new things. I found what my mommy told me are my hands a couple weeks ago. Now I put them in my mouth all the time!


I also realized that my mommy and daddy are funny people! They make me smile a lot and sometimes even squeal in delight when we are playing!



I like to play on my activity mat, my boppy, and dance with my mommy when we listen to music on the Comcast music channels! My favorite station is Pop Hits! That's when I smile the most! Here is me doing some tummy time with my parents-I am hard at work!


There are toys on my carseat and I just noticed those as well! I like to stare at them when I am going for rides! I also like to stare at my mobile in my crib and watch it go round and round! The mobile is all elephants and it makes me smile too!


So as you can see, I have been very busy with these new milestones! I also have been busy going places again. Last weekend, was also my cousin Evalina's Baptism and here I am with my mommy at church!


My own Baptism is coming up. My mommy sings church songs to me to get me ready. She said the church songs are the only ones she remembers all the words too! I especially like "Eye Has Not Seen" and "Celtic Alleluia". She said they play those at St John Brebeuf all the time, but we go to St Mary's now so we have to learn new church music.

Well, I should get going. We are going to go for a walk since the weather is so nice! I will write more soon!
