Lanie really does enjoy her tummy time. Bart actually caught her pushing her lil bottom up with her legs and feet. She was actually scooting herself forward. I am not sure if this is normal for 7 week old babies or not but she seems awful strong to us. She is really good at holding her head up as well and has been from day 1.
Here are just some pictures we took one afternoon that we thought Lanie was looking pretty darn cute. She is 6 weeks old in these pictures. She is looking sideways in almost every one of the pictures because I couldn't get her to take her eyes away from the window. She really enjoys the light from the windows. She is generally a very happy baby however we have yet to get her to crack a smile. I can't wait!!
The Paparazzi (sooo funny)
The Hostesses
The Cake
Beautiful Flowers and Yummy Strawberries
Last weekend we had a baby shower in my hometown of Taloga. We waited till after Lanie was born so everyone there would get a chance to meet her. It turned out great. As you can see from the first picture the poor baby didn't get any attention at all. She was soaking up all the attention for sure. We got a lot of good stuff and are so thankful. It was a good day for sure.
These are just some bath time and more random pics. Lanie loves her baths and loves having her hair washed even more. She cries when we are finished. Her cord just fell off yesterday so that is why we have been doing sponge baths up until this point. Now after 6 weeks Lanie will get to take a big girl bath (kinda). I am so happy that darn cord finally fell off. Lanie is 6 weeks old today and I just can't believe she has been here that long. I am truly amazed on how the time has flown. We took our first road trip this past weekend. She did great in the car sleeping the whole time. She did have some tough days while we were visiting however. She didn't want to sleep very much, but I think she has a tummy ache. Poor baby. Over all the trip was great. We had my 10 year high school reunion, a Bratten family get together, and a baby shower. The weekend was packed to say the least, but it went great. I will try to put the few pictures I actually took of the weekend up at some point. I failed miserably this weekend with taking pictures. I have got to get better at capturing the moments.
Me and Tink. Jazzy was in the pic too but she left before the pic could be taken. Maybe next time.
I am such a big girl in Daddy's recliner.
I think this picture speaks for itself.
Look at all my blond hair.
Tink and me again.
My first nap in my crib (however I never really went to sleep)
Satisfied with a full tummy.
I wonder what my silly daddy is up to??
My uncle Levi thinks I'm cute. He told me so!!
Lanie's first date. I am going to have to keep my eyes on that Jarrett.
My mommy thinks I have the sweetest face.
Tink and I are already pals.
Just me!!!
My Daddy and me.
Our family after Lanie's first bath at home. We had to take this pic since we forgot to take one of the actual bath.
These pictures were taken by Cody Johnson. I thought he did a great job. Lanie was only 1 week old in these pics. She has already grown soooo much. I am way behind on updating the blog so I apologize for that. My goal is to get it caught up soon. Enjoy the pics!!
