Got Pink?

So I've taken a couple of pictures of Callie in the past month that are a little ridiculous on the pink:





But I promise, that isn't all she wears...see?





Okay, so when I typed that last sentence about her not wearing pink all the time (which I typed before actually finding the pictures), I have to admit it was a little challenging to find pictures of her in outfits that didn't have much pink. But I found a few...which I'm sure my sister Mari appreciates seeing as she once told me she will NEVER buy Callie anything pink! :)

And speaking of pink...her outfit today is P-I-N-K-PINK (though partially covered with a yellow bib, which is a bummer because usually I color-coordinate her bibs...but I seriously need to do laundry, so yellow it was today!). Anyway, she discovered a fun toy to play with...until she got mad!

And thanks to my friend Lara for the adorable hat!

Happy Friday!

4 Months Old!!!

Today Callie is officially 4 months old! I entered her picture into the Star Tribune Cutest Baby Contest and her round of voting is today starting at 10am!!! So go to this website and vote!

I'm not sure which picture number she is, but it is this picture:



You have to register in order to vote which is a little annoying, but it isn't hard. And you can vote once an hour! So go for it! :)

Here are a couple of pictures from yesterday...look at her holding her head up!

17 Weeks Old!

I had to actually use a calendar today to make sure I was right about the 17 weeks! Holy cow!

Here she is at 17 weeks- how great is that face?



And here she is having a thrilling conversation with her dolly:

4 Month Doctor Visit

Callie was a CHAMP today. It went MUCH better than her 2 month check-up! She was smiling and giggling with the nurse and doctor. They thought she was adorable (of course!). She even did great during the poking and prodding.

Her stats:

Weight: 14 pounds 11 ounces (78th percentile)
Height: 25 inches (81st percentile)
Head Circumference: 16.93 inches (94th percentile)

So her weight and height are slowing down a little (whew! I thought at the rate she was going she would be 50 pounds by the time she was 1!) but her head is still growing. :)

Here she is now...totally OUT.



We're expecting a pretty sleepy baby for the rest of the day.

Twins!

Today we went to the Twins game with my dad. It was Callie's first Twins game outside the womb. She wasn't too sure about it. The loud noise of the crowd and the loud music sometimes scared her and made her cry. She slept a little bit after about the 3rd inning and did okay until the 7th inning. I ended up taking her out when the Twins had 3 guys on base because the crowd was REALLY loud...but all in all she was a really good baby! Here are some pictures:










The last one was in the car on the way home- but I couldn't resist! So adorable!

A couple videos

I know I already posted but I figured I haven't posted a video for awhile so here are a couple from the past week:

Callie has added grunts to her babbling repertoire:

Nighttime

So I think I mentioned in my last post that Callie Joy is a total wiggle-butt. Nothing demonstrates this better than what she does during the night. Last night she went to bed looking like this (dramatization- not actually what she wears to bed:)) Set nicely in her wedge thing that prevents her from rolling over...



And when she woke up to eat at 4am, she looked like this (again, another dramatization :))




How the heck does that happen? Silly baby.

Anyway, Happy Friday!

Here is a cute daddy/baby foot picture:
