Work Day

Since it snowed, I went in to work today to treat people for their pollen allegies. Bailey was great at work and everyone loved her. Denise did more holding of Bailey than actual work, but she had a good time!

Snow

Snow, Snow, Snow!!!

Jill and Dana shoveling

We got 17 inches at our house yesterday. It was wonderful to get snowed in. Dana, DJ, Bailey and I cooked soup (beef barley) and gingerbread, watched movies, a lot of basketball and napped! Overall the perfect snow day!

2 months old

We just got home from visiting the doctor for our 2 month check up.
Here are her newest stats:
Weight - 9lbs 3 ounces - 11%
Height - 22.8 inches - 66%
Head circumference - 15 1/8 inches - 39%

The doctor could still hear the murmur in her heart but overall she is a perfect baby!!!

Cute as a bug...

Cute as a bug... a ladybug!!!

Or is it mad as a monkey??

Nap Time

This was too cute not to share...Dana had just gotten home from being in Dallas for 4 days and wanted to cuddle with Bailey. They were both sound asleep with in 5 minutes!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!!

7 weeks old

Happy Birthday Bailey! 7 weeks old today!!! We now weigh 8 pounds 6 ounces!

Bailey has had some digestive issues the last week, so i resorted to what i know best...acupuncture. We balanced out her little digestive system and she is so much happier due to fewer gas bubbles in her tummy. She is great at getting needled, no tears or fuss at all!

NLL All-Star Weekend

This weekend was the national lacrosse league all star weekend in Denver and as most of you know, we are HUGE Mammoth lacrosse fans!!! We spent Friday night down at the Pepsi center for the all-star skills challenge and the All-Star Experience – an interactive fan event that included contests, games, displays and Meeting your favorite All-Star players. Our Favorite were the 5 Mammoth team members, who we let autograph Bailey. My mom made her a t-shirt that said "Littlest Mammoth Fan" and we got her signed! It was amazing to see the big rough and tough players with such a little baby.

Nick Carlson who leads the mammoth in assists.

Then Saturday, we go to go to the All-star luncheon. Andrew Leyshon, the Mammoth goalie, sat and had lunch and talked with us. Then off to the game... By this time Bailey was bored and slept through the entire game. This includes missing a sock trick (6 goals) by Mark Steenhuis. It is like a hat trick in hockey and everyone throws there socks on the field. I came home with out my socks! Bailey was not phased by the screaming, horns or cow bells. Overall it was an amazing weekend of fun!!!

Bailey - sound asleep in her sling missing all the action!

Sock trick

The swing!

Bailey LOVES the swing!!! She sits and stares at the flashing lights for about 15 minutes. It is just enough time for me to take a shower,do laundry or just catch up on household stuff. It is WONDERFUL!!!

Weekend of firsts

This was a weekend of firsts for Bailey. On Friday, she had her first play date. We met at Starbucks with MaKenna and her mom Michelle, who we know from our "how to have a baby" class. It was really nice to get to sit and talk with someone who is going through the same things that i am. It gave me hope and reassurance. We can't wait to do it again!

Saturday, I took Bailey to Boulder to meet with the infant cranial-sacral expert. He is a wonderful healer, who offered lots of information to me on ways i can help Bailey grow stronger.

Sunday was our long day. We started the day with church, where Bailey is a celebrity and everyone loves her. Then the 3 of us went to a volleyball tournament to watch DJ's girlfriend play. I was worried how Bailey would do in all the noise but she just slept through it all. She was an amazing baby for it being such a long busy day!

Monday, Dana spent the morning loving and hugging her because he is once again out of town. He will be back again on Thursday. He misses her already!
