Bubby has arrived

Gianna's great grandma Marj has arrived from Los Angeles. We have decided to call her "bubby" which means Jewish grandmother. We are having a good time amid lots and lots of rain! Gigi has really been getting into her kick and play chair. She loves to watch the colors and listen to the sounds while she bounces. Today we are off to mommy and me yoga ....

Our Little Pixie

Today Gigi is 7 weeks new, and she still has that new car smell to her. Since day one, people have commented on what a little pixie Gigi is. Soon enough she'll be asking Grandma to make her some fairy wings. The pics above were taken at our first annual Birthday Bash/2nd Thanksgiving. Gigi's Great Godmother & Godfather, Bunny & Kirby went all out & cooked up a huge Thanksgiving style feast to celebrate the many birthday's that fall around this time. Thanks again Bunny & Kirby!

river walking

Today was filled with fun. First we went to our mommy and me yoga class where we get to stretch and play with other sweet babes and moms. Then we walked by the river with daddy, grandma & grandpa. Gigi was blissfully unaware of the walk-she was all sacked out in the orange snugglewrap. Gigi is exploring her many different vocal cords this week. She has told me with her shreaks that she does not enjoy Yerba Mate tea just yet. Next week Gigi's Greatgrandma Marj comes to visit.

hangin around

Gigi is growing at an amazing rate, the last time we weighed her on our scale she was 7.8 lbs...she has gained a pound! She is beginning to have a preference for certain things. For example, she likes when her cheeks are stroked...she likes being blown by the hair dryer after her naps....she also likes all kinds of music. We have taken her around town quite a bit and the trips seems to not phase her at all. She likes her bathtime and when we shower her with attention (which is pretty easy to do). She takes a morning nap of usually 2 hours and a few short afternoon naps. Gigi is also starting to vocalize certain happy noises. Some coo's and ahhh's. Its quite a sound to hear indeed! She also really likes taking walks in her snugglewrap (see the picture) with her mom, dad, and doggie! Her dad got the joy of feeding her because we pumped some milk for her ...

Until next time ..
