A bad mommy?

Does it make me a bad mommy that I just laughed and took pictures of this instead of not letting her fall over? Oh well! She thought it was funny too! Check out my little elf!

She's gotta be the most talented baby...

Check out her new skill! Blowing raspberries! It kinda makes me feel like she's always mocking me, but it's so darn cute, I could care less.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Kacey had a great first Thanksgiving! She saw her dad run a turkey trot 4-mile road race in Somerville in the morning. For more on that, check out Timmy's blog. She was very impressed by his performance and even spit out her pacifier and smiled and yelled as he crossed the finish line! Then she watched the Macy's parade with her dad (she really liked the Hello! Kitty float!).

We then headed over to my dad's house for a very nice thanksgiving with all of the Keegan family. She was great all day, but exhausted by the end of it (just like all the rest of us!) We were thankful for the very quiet Friday as she spent much of the day napping and recuperating from the events of the previous day.

Celebrating this holiday with such a miracle makes you understand what it means to be really thankful for such joy in your life. This year, we were very thankful for our new family member and the love she brings to our lives.

She loves her jeans!

Here's a little montage of Kacey's favorite item of clothing...her baby jeans. She thinks they make her look very grown-up!

Kacey is 2 months old!

Our little Kacey has hit another milestone. She turned 2 months old! She's doing wonderfully. She is such a smiley and happy baby (and she's mastered her new favorite hobby of sucking on her hands). She sleeps great and is not much of a crier. We couldn't ask for anything better. Our little girl is growing up so fast! She's now up to 23.5 inches and weighs 10 lbs. 4 oz. She's definitely tall and skinny like her dad! We're going back to the pediatrician in a week to have her weight checked to make sure that she is still doing well since she is still small in that area.

We decided to continue with her vaccinations as scheduled so she received her first three shots at her 2 month doctor's appointment. She really didn't like them, but only cried for a few minutes before quickly falling fast asleep in the car on the way home. Timmy and I each held one of her hands while she was getting them. I really think it was harder on us than it was on her, but we're confident in our decision to proceed with her vaccinations.

Anyway, like I've said before. She is just such a blessing and we love spending every day with her.

First Halloween!

Kacey had a great first Halloween! Even though Timmy says it's his least favorite holiday, I think he found new joy in it this year by celebrating it with his daughter. He even made her costume all himself. See, check out our little tortoise and the hare!
