Skills

Davis has been learning how to look at stuff and to lay on his mat. He prefers to be held at all times. His second preference is his swing. We're working on personal growth. ;)

Lovely Day

Yesterday was one of those days that you know why you live in North Carolina...it's February & you're outside playing in the yard with the kids. (Mind you, this is nearly impossible in August, however). Anyway, we had a fun time outside.

Jordan likes to name things. The swing she is on she's named "Tina & Theena" because you can swing on it from either side. The one Stella is in is called "Roger." I am not sure where this kid comes from. ;)

We think Stella has gotten so pretty.

Jamie is in process of turning the old storage shed into a playhouse for the girls. Stella likes to jump off the little step.

Jordan pretends that she is selling ice cream through the window.

While I am at the computer...

I'd better put up a few pictures of the girls, too. Who knows when I might make it back here!



and just one more cute one of Davis...

More Davis

I know...I've been slow to post. Had just a FEW other things to do lately. ;)

Davis photographs better in B&W. Maybe because of the jaundice. Don't know. Also, we don't know who he looks like. If you have any ideas, do share. :)

a favorite thing to do--blah!

here's his first bottle. of course, the sisters had to both give it to him.

his first bath. the binkie made it less traumatic. :)

sweet snoozer. don't let him fool you--he's rotten. [for you northerners, that's a term of affection. :)]

Sweet

Snow Day

So, I am tragically behind on posting pictures...but we have had some fun stuff going on lately. Last Tuesday, it snowed in Charlotte, which is a pretty rare occurrence (it's only snowed one other time in Jordan's life). They really liked playing in it. Jordan tried to make a snowman, but it was too dry.

Two Weeks Old

Davis is two weeks old tonight. He's a lot of fun. He's starting to smile and has gained his birthweight back. He's very loved by his sisters!

photo shoot

A friend of a friend is a photographer who needed a newborn subject for a practice shoot. We gladly volunteered Davis. :) Here is a preview shot that she sent me.

more pics

We got Davis a jersey to bring the Panthers good luck. But at half time, it isn't looking like it is working. :(

Davis' first binkie experience. He didn't really care about it.

Jordan made this crown on the computer. She loves to be a princess.

Somebody really enjoyed burrito night.

Stella has really taken to Davis. She's very sweet and nurturing to him. Sometimes a little too much. We're working on "gentle."

One for the cousins...

A little video clip for you - this was the girls' first meeting with Davis. Stella has been practicing saying his name, but has taken to shortening "baby Davis" to "Bavis," which you can hear her say at the end of the clip. She also loves to tickle... as you can tell.
