16 weeks 11/29/11

Natalie turned 16 weeks this past Tuesday. She is doing really well.  She has started grabbing on to things which is really cool.  Took a couple of videos but they are really long and I am having trouble loading them up.  They are taking forever.  We had a good week this week.  Again, we took her weekly photos late and she was not going to give us a smile no matter how hard we tried and how much of a fool we looked like.  She wasn't having any of it. 

She still looks cute though.  This one I picked looks like she's just lounging in the chair with her hand on the rest.  Just chillin'

Then Daddy thought we should take some photos with the dog.  He puts up with a lot of stuff from us. 

He was not happy by this one.  He was growling.



Now he is better.  He can lick and sniff all he wants.

Dad and Rocky exchange a look.  Natalie is getting a little annoyed at this point.

At least one person was looking at the camera.

And I got all three of them looking at the camera.  That was the end of that photo shoot and time for Natalie to sleep.

Here she is at daycare.  She loves the mat with the batteries that are dying because they play the music over and over.

Here is a sunset Chris saw while out on the boat Monday night.

 Kellan had his 2nd birthday this Saturday.  He turns 2 on the 7th.  It was a Thomas the Tank Engine themed birthday party with a burrito dinner and oreo cookie cupcakes.  Chris dyed a Thomas on a really light disc for Kellan for his present.  I think he liked it.  It took him a while to figure out that it was ok to rip open the presents but he got the hang of it by the end.  He was even allowed to throw the disc inside.  Only on his birthday. 

We all had to wear the hats.  Even Rocky.  Natalie wore one too for a second. 

The rest of the week was good.  Can't believe it is December already.  We have a busy month with something going on every weekend.  We are celebrating Christmas early with the Baker's on the 18th (also my birthday - hint hint) and will be in Westmoreland on Christmas weekend.  Hope all are enjoying the mild weather we are having although the weather looks to be getting a lot colder in the next week or so. 

Be Well!
