4 Months Old!!!!

Well hello everybody! It has been a while since I checked in so there is lots to catch you up on. I am four months old now and as happy as I can be!!!!!!!!
After my doctor visit, in November, I took my first plane ride to watch my cousin play in a football game. He was the best one on the field! I got to hang out with my Grammy Carol and Aunt Mimi and, of course, they always dote on me! Oh, and by the way, I was PERFECT on the plane ride out there.

From there, mommy and I went to Atlanta for three weeks and daddy went home for a week and then came back. It was great! I got to meet my Great Grandmother because she came to Atlanta to meet me and my cousin Libby for the first time. She was there two weeks and we had lots of fun!
I also got to meet a lot of mommy and daddy's friends for the first time. They were all really cool! I even got to meet my boyfriend Trey! I like them a little bit younger and he is 10 days younger than me!
Thanksgiving was so much fun but the best was the day after. Mommy has a tradition of shopping with her mom and sisters on "Black Friday" and she didn't want to break it. So...I stayed home with daddy! They left around 4:45 AM and didn't come home until 11:00 PM!!!! I had so much fun with daddy and he took GREAT care of me. Let's be honest though...I was pretty easy on him! Besides, Great Grandma was there to help out.
My second favorite part of the trip was meeting Santa Claus! I went to Phipps Plaza to meet the REAL Santa Claus. There was a little bit of an issue. While we were in line waiting, daddy was holding me and I started to get a tummy ache. It hurt pretty bad...but I didn't complain. We were next in line and I was all set to sit on his lap and tell him what I wanted. But I couldn't handle my tummy ache anymore. So...I let it all out...if you know what I mean. There was poop everywhere! It was all over daddy's shirt and dripping onto the floor! Luckily though...I didn't get any on my dress. So there we were...at Phipps Plaza...next in line to see Santa with poop everywhere! The people in line were super nice and helped mommy and daddy get it all cleaned up. By the time Santa was ready for me...I was all cleaned up. Unfortunately, I can't say the same for daddy!

After our Thanksgiving trip, we headed back to Houston...the experience on the plane ride back was not quite as good. I got another one of my tummy aches and i just couldn't hold it. It was EVERYWHERE! Much worse than in line for Santa. So there we were...mommy, daddy and me all in the tiny bathroom on the airplane trying to get me out of my poopy clothes without actually touching anything in the bathroom. I SCREAMED! I was naked, hanging in the air, with poop everywhere...not fun!

Anyway, we got home to Houston...but only for two weeks! We were back in Georgia for Christmas for another two weeks. The only thing bad about this trip was that we didn't really get to see any of mommy and daddy's friends. They were sad about that but there was so much family stuff going on that the trip was over before they knew it! This trip I got to meet Sasha. She is 15 year old girl that my Aunt Lynn and Uncle Rod brought over from Latvia for Christmas. She lives in an orphanage over there. She was really sweet and she is like a member of the family now. We miss her a lot now that she is back in Latvia.
Anyway, Christmas is GREAT! There are so many pretty, shiny things to look at and play with and you get presents LOTS AND LOTS of presents! I finally have some toys...just in time because I am starting to enjoy playing with toys.
One toy I got is this seat that hangs from the door. I am not sure what to make of it yet.

Well, tomorrow I have my four month checkup with Dr. Irani. I hear I have to get some shots which I am not happy about. I also hear I am going to start eating cereal soon so that should be interesting. I guess there are some good photos to come! In the meantime, here is the link to the rest of my photos from my Thanksgiving and Christmas trips and a few from when we got back! Photos
Well, that is all for now. I will try to write sooner next time! I hope everyone is doing well and mommy and daddy say hi!
