Baizley is seven weeks old!

Oh so HAPPY!

The Biniecki's have had a pretty uneventful week. Dzia Dzia (pronounced Ja-Ja) left last Friday (we miss you) and we are awaiting the return of Queenie and Papa Den in a few weeks. Baizley is certainly smiling more and entertaining us more and more each day with her adorable noises. Somehow she continues to get cuter and cuter.

Ah, children today are so tech savvy. This is Baizley "skyping" with Queenie, Papa Den and the PA aunts and uncles. It's amazing how alert and engaged she was. She's got mad computer skills.

Check out the fist. (thumb is between her index and middle fingers)
Baizley's got your nose!

Here's is Sullivan Middaugh holding Baizley for the first time.
As she tooted while being held, Sully exclaimed "Oh, I felt her poop!"

Here is Baizley all frogged out. We had a pretty mellow day lounging around. Rib-it.



Jared stopped by the new house today. Here is our new living room, outside of the house and the biggest reason for moving, the garage! Please find someone to buy our current house!

Towards the bottom of the page there are links for renderings and floor plans. Ours would be the unit labeled "east elevation" on the rendering, and the floor plan at the bottom of each floor plan page.

Baizley is six weeks old!

Wow! Baizley is six weeks old. Jared's dad, Baizley's Dzia Dzia, arrived in town on Monday; he is loving every minute he spends with the little Miss.
Baizley is so much more alert and is focusing and reaching for toys. She loves to look at herself in the mirror. We've had a busy week, here are a bunch of pics from our newborn adventures.

This is Baizley's first gondola ride.

How cute am I? Love touring around town in my comfy car seat.

What is Baizley doing?
Cheering because it's finally snowing!
or maybe she's prepping for the Super Bowl...
Touchdown!

Ain't life grand?

Baizley is five weeks old!

So our sweet Baizley is now five weeks old. She is gaining chins by the day, weighing in at almost 9 pounds. We went to our first Mommy and Me class this week with our first friend, Addison, who is three days older than Baizley. (Addison's mommy and daddy are friends of mine who are also teachers.) It was nice to see other babies who cry more, moms who sleep less, and find out that I'm not exactly certifiably nuts.


We found out this week that we are going to be moving into a new house in Vail this June. (Know anyone who wants to buy an apartment in Avon or a condo in Eagle Vail?) It was a lottery and we actually were first runner up, but found out this morning that one of the winners bowed out, so we're in! Baizley was decked out in her Vail garb, baby hat and onsie that Kelly made.
We also went on our first walk with our super-fly stroller. Baizley slept the whole time.

Baizley is doing some smiling, but I'll be darned if I can catch a good one on camera. I'll keep trying though!

Baizley is FOUR weeks old!

With the holidays over, our house is empty. All Queenies, Grandmas, Papa Dens, Grandpas, great aunts and uncles have gone home. (We do have a Dzia Dzia coming in two short weeks!) Not as many loving arms to snuggle the little miss. Please come back and visit soon! We miss you!

I don't know where the past four weeks have gone. All you mom's out there have been telling me, cherish every moment, they grow up so fast. Boy are you right!

Jared and I can see Sweet Baizley growing and changing every day. She is much more alert, focusing on us when we talk to her, read books or play. Those wild hands are now grabbing and I think she realizes she is in control of them. Daddy put Baizley's swing together and she seems to enjoy it. The little wrist rattles in the picture are from Santa.

Just yesterday we took our first bath without screaming. I can't say Baizley loved it, but she didn't freak out, which has been the par for the course when trying to take a bath. It was a quiet bath at least.

This picture is the onsie that was hand crafted by Aunt Kelly. Love it!

Hope all is well and returned to normal after the holidays.
