Our Weekend

Happy Monday friends!  We had such a fun weekend hanging out and finally getting back into the swing of things now that the holiday's are over.

On Friday, Dave decided that he wanted to do a puzzle - I mean what better way is there to spend your free time when it is raining outside?  So I went to Target and got a couple puzzles (buy 2 get one free!) and Dave wanted to do this hilarious one first.


It took us all weekend but it was really relaxing and we definitely felt accomplished when we finished.  We were thinking about puzzle gluing it together and getting it framed for a white elephant gift next Christmas.  What do you think?

Saturday night we had a game night with our neighbors.  One of our new favorites that we got for Christmas is Telestrations .  It is definitely a fun game and if you haven't played you should check it out.  Below is my rendition of a monkey riding a flying unicorn.

On the baby front, Gretchen has started 2 new things.  First, she doesn't really have the patience to sit up right (or maybe she doesn't know how to get out of the sitting position) so she has started sitting like my late dog Spot...off to one side.  We call it her Spot Sit and she is doing it everywhere.

She also likes grabbing the spoon when we feed her.  She normally tries to grab the part with the food in it so we have to do the airplane to avoid big messes.  Since she was getting a bath Sunday night, we decided to just let her practice eating.  Aside from her flinging prunes across the dining room table, she was so cute to watch!

And just because, here is a picture of Gretchen playing in a shoe box.  Her legs are a perfect size 12.

Sleeping Baby G

This post has been a long time in the making.  I must say that our baby video monitor was the best investment we made.  I love watching Gretchen sleep!  Not only is she adorable, but some of her sleep positions are just plain hilarious!  Dave and I like to give names to her more common ones.  Here is to you Baby G, for entertaining us even when you are asleep.


Lady Liberty




A whole series of "Butt In The Air" (Searching for a better name...any ideas?)

  

 



The Jesus (pronounced the Spanish way)


The Angry Sleeper (notice the middle finger...)


The "I'm So Tired I Sleep With My Mouth Open"


The Archer/Baby Cupid


The Thumb Sucker


The Thumb Sucking Mummy 


This one doesn't have a name because it only happened the one time, but seriously, look at her legs!


The Model


The Innocent Baby 


This is her most common pose...The Velociraptor 

And I just wanted to add one of her snuggling up on my sweatshirt...this helped sleep train her.

November In Photos

It has definitely taken me forever to do some blog catch up from the holidays.  I figured the best and easiest way was to do a review in pictures...these are pretty much all pictures of Gretchen since she is our whole world now so enjoy! 

This was the month she started sucking her thumb.
Love this hat her Grandma Sheri got her.  
She loves her new high chair and playing with the pancake flipper while I get her food ready.
Gretchen's first Thanksgiving.  We spent it at my moms and Dave's family joined.  I can't believe I didn't even get one picture of me and G...we even had matching bow headbands!

Haha...her face!  She eventually warmed up to him..


Everyone watching the game.



Getting our first Christmas Tree the day after Turkey Day.

   

I forgot a hat so she wore her grandpas...only got mistaken for a boy a few times...my bad.
