Happy Easter!

Can you stand it? This fabulous Easter picture is courtesy of Ingrid who watched Baizley for a few days. They obviously had a great time. Hysterical!

Baizley is the best baby ever! Four months old! She makes us laugh with her funny sounds and reactions. We are getting lots of "ghees" and "heys." Everything goes into her mouth for the Baizley slobber of approval.
Last week at her 4 month well visit she was in stellar health. Unbelievably, under 13 pounds. Both Mommy and Daddy thought she was at least 15 pounds. To our surprise, only 12 pounds, 13 ounces. Taking after her Mommy? I don't think so, Baizley is in the 90th percentile in height, 25.25 inches tall. She didn't get those short Heaton legs.
Two weeks ago Baizley started day care. So far she's doing great; her teachers love her. She smiles and sleeps and is a model baby.
We had our largest group of visitors last week...Snyders, Salernos, Morris', and Portas and of course Queenie and Papa Den. Twent-one of us all together. It was a very busy Easter weekend, but so wonderful to see everyone. Baizley loved meeting new family and friends, especially Sophia and Cierra.

It's a tough life...Baizley fell asleep while playing. Notice the hand still clutching the toy.

Love my sweater and hat from Corine. She was tired of seeing Baizley in fleece. By the way, these are Baizley's skinny jeans.

Baizley's new favorite game...take both hands, full of Mommy's hair, and PULL!

Baizley and Dzia Dzia chillin' on the floor. I believe she's got his nose.

Bye Dzia Dzia, had a great time. Can't wait to see you again soon.

Big kiss for Mommy! Lots of slobber and drool.

Hold that chin up Mommy, summer will be here soon!

More Easter fun
Maybe got a hold of a sour jelly bean?

Something must be very exciting over there.

How much do you LOVE my new hat, handmade by Jared's Aunt Jan. It is so fabulous!!!
Check out the matching bib.

Tastes good too!

Hi Aunt Nicole!

"I think I want the chicken fingers and fries. Can you order that for me?"

Baizley meeting Sophia, oh so amazing to meet someone my size.

My Easter dress, very entertaining!

The Easter Bunny came and brought me a singing Donald Duck. Not too sure what to think about it.

Thanks Easter Bunny....bock, bock

Last night with Papa Den.

Helping Queenie with the laundry.

Can't get it into my mouth fast enough!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

I know, it's been a long time since I've posted pictures of our little princess. Kim went back to work and Jared is "stay at home daddy" for two weeks. He's loving spending all day with Baizley. They play and play all day long.
Baizley is now three months old! She has grown so much and is learning lots of new things. She is still quite the talker. We love the ooohs, ahhhs, gooos and cooos. It's lots of fun having conversations with her making up what she's telling us. Gosh she's smart!
Baizley is now grabbing and holding toys and rattles. She loves her play mats. Just this week Baizley has started putting everything she grabs right into her mouth. It's actually entertaining. And if there is no toy around, she is more than happy to shove a whole fist into her mouth. And so exciting, today, Baizley rolled over from her stomach to her back!
Enjoy all the pictures below and Happy St. Patrick's Day!

My first St. Patrick's Day. Be green!

Snug as a bug in a rug, I mean baby in a bear suit.

Loving those sub-zero mornings!

Eyes fixed on the boob tube. We've created a TV-loving monster.
(at least some of it was watching the Olympics)

Look Ma, I'm standing!

Josiah holding Miss Baizley for the first time. He's got to remember how to do this. Only two short months until there is another Baby Middaugh running around.

Happy Birthday Daddy! I love all your presents!

Daddy's birthday rocks, I get presents too.

Righteous dude.

Yummy fist!
Do you love how high the jeans are?
Can a three month old really wear "mom jeans?"

This is my serious face.

So is that my hand holding this thing? How did I do that?

Hey there! I love to play!

First time in the Bumbo, not so sure we love it just yet.


Horsey time on daddy's knee always cheers me up!


Baizley is the next American Idol!!
She loves singing into her microphone.

Baizley and Mommy taking a much needed nap on a lazy Sunday afternoon.

Do you think I can fit two toys in my mouth at the same time?

Loving the Bumbo!

Alright, I'm doing my darn tummy time, now let me get onto my back already!
