2 months old!

I'm a little late, but here it goes. I can't believe it's been 2 months already! At Clara's 2 month check-up here were her stats:
weight: 13 lbs. 2.5 oz. (97th percentile)
height: 25 in. (97th percentile)
head: 16.5 in. (97th percentile)
She is a big girl, and very proportional! Most of her 0-3 month clothes don't fit and in fact the outfit she's wearing right now is a 6 month size.
Some of her latest tricks:
-She is a very smiley girl. It really doesn't take much to get her smiling, but her daddy is best at it.
-she sleeps 6-7 hours in a stretch most nights
-she LOVES to ride in her stroller if she gets to face forward
-she tolerates her swing
-she was good for her first babysitter experience and she took a bottle
- she loves to sit in mommy's lap looking out at the world
-she loves music and will quiet down pretty quickly as soon as I start singing or turn on some music
-she is very good at lifting her head
-she does well during church (finally!) I know it won't last for long, but we're trying to enjoy it while it does.
-she loves to kick her legs and wave her arms (see pictures below)
-she makes lots of new noises and seems pretty focused like she's trying so hard to talk
-she loves to suck on her fists and it's pretty darn cute!

Oh, and we went and saw Wicked, hence the need for a babysitter (thanks Andi and Spencer). It was fantastic! And we were lucky enough to have Tanner here to see it with us!

she really does like church, she's just not so sure about the headband and the rest of the getup.

Help! Calling all Bloggers

My dad has started a blog for his lawfirm as a new marketing technique. He is hoping to draw traffic to it through google searches. Google places search results higher on the list depending on how many other sites link to it. This is where you all come in. Here is what we are asking:

1. put a link to his blog on your blog www.nelsonrozier.blogspot.com
2. comment on this blog letting me know you have done so (we are trying to track the effectiveness of this strategy.)

That's it. You can put the link on your blog list or side bar, wherever you'd like, as long as the link is there.

Thanks for your help!

Happy Halloween!

Halloween Party

So Nate and I were recently put on the activities committee at church. Friday night was the annual Halloween party/chili cook-off and it was a smashing success. There were over 250 people in attendance. Our chili won "most original" I'm not really sure how meat, beans, tomatoes, onions, and seasonings is original, but I proudly accepted my golden spatula anyways. Here are some pictures...enjoy.


Get it? because I'm tired of explaining it.

Our angelic fairy...thank you Dollar Tree.

and this outfit was just too cute to not take a picture of.

This is how the little darling woke up this morning...life is good!

Twins?

We wore the same dress for our blessings. My Aunt Betty made this dress for me 25 years ago. Who looked cuter in it? I know my vote, but I'll let you decide.

Blessing Day!

3 Generations

All strapped in and ready to go!

Touchdown! Apparantly this is how she posed through the entire blessing, and through most of her life thusfar as a matter of fact. Maybe it comes from all the football we watched in our hospital room.

This is how the little angel sleeps every time. Notice the hand high in the air, yet still in the wrap.

First bath in the tub. She loves bath time, that is until it's over.

And big smiles for mommy this morning.
