Hey all. It's been a pretty busy month! My birthday came and went, and one of my presents was a mini-getaway at the coast in Waldport with the fam. It was so fun, weather was so nice, and the place we stayed at was great. I think June really enjoyed her first trip to the ocean. Even though she slept her way through her first visit to the beach, I think she got the general idea.
June has been changing a lot! Babies do that, I hear. She's so much more alert and in tune with her surroundings. She's turning into a happy yet tough little cookie.
Fun fact: Last year on this very day I found out I was pregnant with Miss June. What a difference a year makes!
I'll post more pictures later when I have a bit more time. Hope all is well wherever you are!

To The Tune of Old Man by Neil Young:
I forgot to mention that June really seems to love Neil Young. It has put her to sleep the past four nights in a row. And I mean "put her to sleep" in the best way possible. Anyhow, I made up a little song in order to help with the bottle challenge:
(As sung to June by the bottle)
::ahem::
Oh June, take a look at my bottle, I'm a lot like booooooob.
I need someone to nurse me the whole night throuuuuugh.

Hey all! Things around here are pretty nice. Nice weather, nice baby, nice nice nice. Gearing up to head back to work in a few weeks. Yet another transition to make! I hope it goes smoothly. As of right now we are dealing with some bottle issues (specifically: she hates it) so we have about three weeks to get her to love that surrogate milk provider. I have a feeling that's NEVER going to happen, but if worse comes to worse we'll just have to feed her like a little birdie. Fun times! I don't blame her though... There's nothing too natural about a bottle, so I wouldn't expect it to be something that comes very easily, if at all.
Anyhoo, here are some pics. June is getting distracted by just about everything these days. You can literally see the wheels turning in her head when she fixates on something. She's "talking" a lot. Loves the sound of her own voice. She's still a firecracker of a baby. But a sweet firecracker. I don't think that's going to change anytime soon! All in all it's been really fun watching her take everything in. Fun and funny and sweet.
Here are some more pictures, take care all!

Almost three months old...
Future couch potato? Let's hope not.
She hates Oprah, she's more of an Ellen girl.

Summertime fun in January.
I don't know what the hell is going on or who I have to thank but today was BEAUTIFUL! June and I took full advantage with a day filled with walks, car rides with windows rolled down, and even chilling in the front yard playpen style. Thanks, Sun! You really make a difference in the lives of us gloomy Northwesterners when you decide to come out.
XO
Katie and June

A Few More... GO SOX!
I wanted to take a picture of June wearing her cute Red Sox onesies that Uncle Jon got her. Then I went a little overboard. Oh well.
Girl Smiley
Hey all! June has been smiling a lot lately. She is soooooo close to laughing, though we are not *quite* there yet. Soon!
Anyhow, as an obsessive first-time mom on maternity leave, I am obligated to take WAAAAY too many baby pictures and post them on this blog/Facebook... Now that we have gotten over the six-week hump, Miss June has turned into a somewhat reliable napper and has been letting me put her down every once in a while--which has given me some actual free time. And also gives me a chance to go to the bathroom and/or make a quick PB&J. Thanks Baby! Anyhow, I guess I should post as many pictures as possible right now... for when I go back to work I have a feeling things are going to get MUCH crazier and I wont have as much free time.
Speaking of, it's only one more month until I head back to work. It doesn't seem possible, but she's almost two months old and doing quite well, becoming more alert to the world, crying much less, and smiling a lot. This little gal melts my heart about 7 million times a day. Love her!
Until next time! XO
