First Bath

I'm about 2 weeks late on posting these pictures, but I was finally able to download the pics from my Mother-in-law's camera. Caroline didn't enjoy her first bath, but she has grown to like them. She always pees in the water, though. =)

Tummy Time

Caroline is getting so good at holding up her head, so I tried to have a little "Tummy Time" with her the other day. You can see how that went. . .=) Thanks Great Auntie Carol for my "I Spy" quilt!

Patio

Ryan and his Dad decided to take on a home improvement project while his parents are here. They started the arduous task of tiling our front and back patios. Ryan was gone to New York for a week, so that job kept Grampy (and Grammy, too) VERY busy! Thanks for all your hard work. . .its looks GREAT! The back is totally done and Grampy even bought a beautiful fall tablecloth and candle to celebrate the project's completion and the season! The front is almost done. . .I'll post more pictures of it when its complete!

Bouncer

Caroline just loves napping in her bouncer! Thanks Pawpaw! It won't be long before we'll be taking out the newborn insert. . .she's getting so big so quickly! Where did these past 3 weeks go? It seems like just yesterday we were bringing her home from the hospital. Ahh, memories. =)

Camera

So, we bought a new video camera several months ago with the intention of capturing Caroline's birth. Things got hectic in the delivery room and that didn't happen. The camera also takes still shots, but we still haven't gotten the hang of taking good pictures with it. I couldn't find the old camera (maybe it got lost in the move) and I was tired of not being able to take tons of pictures of my baby, so I just went out and bought a new camera! =) Now I have no excuse for not posting pics more often. =) Pics to follow. . .

We Miss You, Daddy!

Ryan has been gone TDY to New York since Sunday and we sure are missing him (and I know he's missing us)! Here are a few pictures to tide him over until he can come home. . .

Atleast I have more hair than Daddy! =)

2 Week Well Baby Exam

Caroline had her 2 week well baby exam today(at 8:20 in the morning. . .what were those people thinking scheduling me that early with a new baby?!) and all went amazingly well. Grammy and I stumbled out of the house early this morning. . .me going on only 2 1/2 hours of sleep. . .we were a few minutes late, but we made it! Caroline gained almost 2 lbs (up to 8 lbs, 4 oz), but hasn't grown taller yet. The nurse gave us some advice on changing formula again (still with what breast milk I can give her), so hopefully the stinky gas and fussiness will stop with the new stuff. She said Caroline was perfect and growing like a weed! Oh, and they had to repeat the heel stick test today and there was a baby girl having the test done when we got there and she was screaming her head off! The nurse warned me that Caroline would be doing the same thing shortly, but surprisingly enough, she only whimpered for a second. That's my girl! We raise 'em tough in the Cryer household! ;-) Here's a few pictures from today. Enjoy!

Right after bathtime. . .
