Hawaii

We went to Hawaii in the middle of May. We stayed at Great Uncle Kivalu & Great Aunt Heather's in a guest home that will be Great Grandpa and Grandma Batchelor's if they move down there. 

It was BEAUTIFUL and hot! We went to the beach, Pearl Harbor, the PCC, the North Shore, Hanauma Bay and the beach several more times. 

You got a subtle little baby tan through your SPF 50. I however got freckles and dad got a burn that turned into a tan. You slept well on the flights and it was a piece of cake. 

We still need to upload all our pictures from it. We had a stranger take some beautiful pictures of you. She was Asian. There were many Asian women who came up to us who thought you were beautiful. Great Aunt Heather says they love to see blond hair. :) 

I will add pictures from the trip after we upload them. 
















Fun Little Autumn Stories

6-11-13

Unless your first word is hilarious, it can't beat a couple weeks ago when you were babbling and your dad asked, 'You're just a social little bug, aren't you?' You replied, 'Yeah.' 

You also replied 'Yeah' the other day when your dad asked if I beat you. 

When we were in Hawaii you were sitting on Dad watching The Hunger Games when I grabbed you to nurse you for bed. You were very upset and started crying in protest so I passed you back to dad and you instantly got happy as you stared at the screen again. 

6-13-13

Last night you started whining and whimpering in your sleep. Then Daddy goes, 'Baby Autumn, why so sad?' Here's the catch. He was asleep too. 

6-14-13

This morning you woke up at 4:30 to play with your toes. 

Last night you lunged at Daddy's Garlic bread and licked it. We tore a piece off to see if you were interested. You licked it a lot more. So I let you lick some avocado. You haven't figured out the putting it in your mouth bit, but you seemed to enjoy it!

Your third month

Your third month has been so fun. Your personality has come out more and more every day. You are so fun to be around. We got a swing for you and you love it. I left for two or three hours one day and you had no clue. You stayed in there just about the whole time so daddy had it easy!

We got some pictures taken of you and a few with us in them as a family. They are beautiful, but the adorable subject helps. :) We flew down to Hawaii and were there for the last couple of days of your third month so we will sum that up next month. 

You were vaccinated this month and got a fever over 103.  It was a nightmare but I used essential oils to bring your fever down since you threw up every time I have you Tylenol unless I did it extremely slowly drop by drop. We are talking overran hour to give you a dose. It was awful. I'm so not sure about how I feel about them and if I will do the next set or not. 

We also moved to a warmer apartment and sent Trixie to stay with Granny and Grandpa because we can't have her in the new apartment. We will get her back when we move to the lower 48 next year. 

Here are some pictures of your third month.

Your Second Month

Your second month has been so fun. You sleep less, but are so social, smiley and happy. These are the day to day pictures of your second month.
