Its Halloween...

Well, its not quite Halloween, but close! Although Mya won't be trick or treating this year, we put Mya in her bumble bee costume, and needless to say she hated it. We got 14 seconds of her in the costume before she lost her mind (although Philip and I and my mom thought it was the funniest thing ever). On the day of actual Halloween we're going to try again... hopefully we haven't scarred her for life. She did however love the pumpkin patch we took her to on Sunday. She fit right in and everyone there thought she was just the cutest little thing. We picked out some good ones for our front porch.

Mya also had a doctors appointment on Sunday (yes, our doctor does weekend hours). She got 2 shots and took them like a champ with only a little crying on the second one. She also weighs 13 pounds 7 ounces now at nearly 14 weeks old. She has found some new toys that she adores too in the house and is trying desperately to shove her hands in her mouth at all times since we believe she's started to teeth a bit (lots of drooling going on these days, and the hands are always in her mouth, and her gums are a little red in the front).

Mya is doing well with the rice cereal and probably won't start any other foods for about another month. The doctors are very impressed by how she's progressing and are shocked that she moves around and has so much strength at her age. She's already pushing up on her hands when she's on her belly and is holding her head up really well these days. She's also flipped herself over a few times (full disclosure here - we're not sure if it was an accident or not though!) and when she is on her belly and pushing up with her arms she's also moving her legs like she's trying to crawl... but she doesn't go anywhere of course. Not yet anyways...

More to come soon...

Love,

Lauren, Philip, Mya and Chloe xoxoxoxo
