Being Outdoors

Today I turned 6 weeks!  It's also my cousin Ali's birthday (or as she likes to call me - the sister I never had in a million years) and my Uncle Will's birthday (Daddy's brother).  Lots of reasons to be happy today! So many great people are celebrating their birthdays :)  So Happy Birthday Ali and Uncle Will! 

My cousin Ali had to get blood work done today as part of her physical and she was lucky because she was able to have Mima draw her blood.  I wish I was closer to Mima so that when it was time for me to have my blood taken my Mima could do it.  Mima told me that Ali didn't even cry when they took her blood!  I hope I'm that brave when I get older.  Maybe my cousins Ali and Dominick can teach me how to be so brave!

Mommy, Daddy and I took a little adventure today to Mommy's doctors appointment in Danville.  I was a good girl the entire trip!  I like long car rides...just not too long!  I liked that Daddy was able to go with us this time so that Mommy could sit in the back with me.  I don't like to be in the back of the car all by myself.  It gets lonely back there! When we got back home Mommy put my bouncer outside on the front porch where her and grandma were sitting.  It was such a beautiful day out!  I was able to relax in the fresh air for a few hours.  I napped out there, ate out there, and just enjoyed the entire time! Maybe this fresh air thing isn't such a bad thing.  Maybe I'll try hanging out in the sun again sometime soon!  Mommy says I may like the sun a little more if I was wearing a hat.  She said she would try to find one that fits me.  I like the idea of a hat but Mommy doesn't really know where to find one with the elastic that goes around my chin so that it doesn't fall off.  So if any of you know where my Mommy and Daddy can buy one, please let her know! 

Grandma went to Maryland for the weekend.  She went to go spend time with Grandpa so that he didn't have to make the long drive down here.  Grandma says he needs a break from the drive sometimes.  So the next couple of days its just me and Mommy.  And it's almost Sunday - my favorite day of the week right now, because that means Daddy gets to stay home with me and Mommy!  Daddy says he's going to take that job at the church furniture company so that means he'll be home with us a lot more!  I'm so excited about having daddy home with me in the evenings and on the weekends!  He starts his new job on Tuesday.  If everything with this new job goes as planned it means Mommy will get to stay home with me a lot longer!  Isn't that great?

I don't have any new pictures today.  Mommy had a hard time getting good ones of me with her camera phone and she didn't have the digital camera with her downstairs.  But I promise my next update will have pictures.
