We took Ally to Hume this week for the first time.  It was such a relaxing time spent with family and friends.  Ally also went swimming for the first time and loved it.  We can’t wait to take her back. 

Here is Ally on the way up with her good friend, duck. 

Here is Ally sitting with her cousin, Zac.

Here’s Dani and Ally swimming.

Jonny and Ally swimming.

Ally up close, looking super cute in her swim hat (that was too big).

Look at those eyelashes!!

Jonny brought home some paperwork to do.  So Ally sat and watched while daddy worked, giving imput here and there (drool and coos). 

Here Ally is with her friend Emma, they are 2 months apart.  Emma is such a happy, beautiful baby and we were so happy that she stopped by for a little visit.  Ally is on her way to nap time, can you tell?

Here is a picture scanned in of either Jonny or Dani.  Can you guess who?  Doesn’t this baby look just like Ally?  You can click on it for a closer look!

Every morning Ally and I spend a little time laying on our tummies strengthening those neck muscles.  She is really getting the hang of it.  She LOVES this white polar bear given to her by her grandma Lien.  She thinks it is pretty hilarious. 

ok, so today i was going to my feeding support group to weigh ally (12 pounds 15 ounces, btw) and i was nervous because she has always cried in the car.  not today!!!  first day in the car without crying…YEAH!!!

she also had her first official laugh today!!  it was so darn cute.  she was looking at this white polar bear and just giggled.  just about melted my heart! 

Grandma and Caitlyn basting Ally…so this is what happens when I’m gone!

Bath Time

Last night Ally not only slept the whole night through, without any pacifier assistance but also woke up this morning and started talking to the bunnies on her mobile.  It was so stinkin’ cute!!  What fun when they wake up happy and not crying! 

 Here are a few pics from the fourth celebration
