3 months old

Poppy's Grandma from Tennessee came for a visit. Poppy got to know her Grannie and was smiling at her from across the room at the end of her visit.

We got to meet one month old Caylyn Russell for the first time this weekend. This is the same spot in Santa Barbara I met their son Caleb for the first time as well. Caleb is 2 1/2.































Poppy really tries to jam her whole fist in her mouth, the pictures don't shoe her intensity or the loud sucking sounds. Her hair/fuzz sure does look red in this picture.

We stayed with the Bancrofts this weekend. Seth, who is 16 months was curious about Poppy. Jordan who is 3 was a fun friend to Poppy. Jordan would hold her, pat her tummy, she even got Poppy to smile at her the morning we left. Jordan heard that Poppy was hungry so she went in the kitchen and got her some baby food that her brother Seth eats.

Poppy got a new toy, she is not sure what to do with it yet.

We are changing our time line from weeks to months, this month. Our wonderful blessing is almost 3 months old. It is so hard to believe and even harder to imagine life without her in it each day.

She has been to three womens volleyball games; college, high school and middle school. She slept through most of each game, the louder the music the better. We told her she could grow up to be 5-9 or 5-10, and be an outside hitter...

Poppy is holding her head up better and better. She also got a new outfit from her Uncle Dave, she will need it in L.O., it is getting colder.

Don't forget to check out the videos - we are updating those as well!

Santa Cruz - camping

Camping at New Brighton Beach was a great experience, Poppy liked the great outdoors. We could see the ocean from our camp spot. We had a fire the second night, it started to rained right as we got into bed and rained all night. I am so glad we had the time to visit Andrea and camp.

Carter surfed by the pier. The waves were good and it was a nice sunny day.

We went to S.C. to see Andrea. She was playing bball when we got there, what a great campus. She took us to her dorm room, we got to meet some of her friends as well. Poppy was welcomed as long as she did not cry or spit up. Poppy spit up on Andrea and her bed. :>

Poppy got her first shots. She cried when she got her shots. By the time we got to the car she was done crying. She did get fussy later that night so we put her in the sling and she went right to sleep. I think the picture of Poppy in the hat looks like Maddie.
