Gwyneth Anne Baldwin

This week we welcomed Gwen Anne to the family. She is really cute I guess, but I'm not the baby anymore, ugh. I was so excited to meet her. I just wanted to give my newest cousin a kiss... ok, maybe I wanted to chew on her a little, but I don't even have teeth yet so would it have been that big of a deal?
Everyone is so high strung. They said I had to be restrained. Look at this face, do I look like I could do anything wrong?
And here are pictures of everyone holding Gwen while I just sat in  the corner alone.





And here she is with her big brother Parker.
Finally, someone paid a little attention to me. Thanks, Uncle Chad!

In all honesty, I am super excited about having a little girl cousin. It won't be long until we can all play together. I am so relieved that Aunt Michaela is finally home safe and recovering well.

4 Months old!

Ok, so for those of you keeping track, you know that I'm already 5 months, but I have just been so busy traveling around the country its hard to keep up.
Here are some 4 month pictures. They aren't my best cause mom waited to take them when I was all ready for bed.


I am working hard on sitting unsupported.  I keeping hearing once I master that I can get some of this real food that I see people eating every day.  
Yeah, I'm sitting in a laundry basket, don't worry about it. Just a little trick mom picked up at physical therapy.

Tummy time is getting so much easier. I am not in constant fear of face-planting into the ground anymore.  Its really nice now that I have a mirror, so I can check out this guy while I dot it.

Everyone keeps telling me I look SO much like my mom. Do you think I can get away with using this?
No? That's fine, I really just wanted to eat it anyway.

A few other highlights from month #4. 
*I am wearing 6-9 month clothes, no big deal. 
*I have started sleeping for 4-6 hours straight at night. I thought it would be nice to finally give mom a few hours to sleep, before I start walking that is.  
*I am still working on mastering rolling over and thinking about crawling, but my big belly is hard to lift and drags on the ground.
*I LOVE my exersaucer and don't know what I would do without it.  
*I enjoy going on walks and and am ok with the pool, but sometimes its a just too cold.
*I love getting to meet all my friends and family. I can't believe how many people I have that love me!
