merry christmas!

Cecelia's first christmas was a busy one!

Christmas eve eve we hung out w/her uncle matt & auntie melissa for some silliness as usual.



Christmas eve we finally got to go visit the Taunton Green & look at the lights



Then it was off to my uncle Dave & aunt Jan's, which was exhausting!


Here is Cece's cousin Patrick moving some spoons around:


I think after all that excitement, I was up more Christmas eve than Cece was! Christmas day we had lots of places to go, we started at our house, of course:


Cece wasn't sure what was going on, but she liked the sound of wrinkling paper :)

we visited with my mom next, where i didn't take any pictures, but i did take a video- i can only manage so much media!

next stop was my dad's house where we had a nice big breakfast and a mellow morning!


i probably could have used a nap at this point,

but there was no stopping us, and we were on to andy's parents:





we had a very nice visit there as well. mmm mexican food for dinner :) Feliz Navidad! we'd like to thank everyone for making Cecelia's first Christmas with us so wonderful, it was better than i could have imagined! <3

baby's first blizzard

 

cece definitely liked the snow better once she was back inside!!

all i want for christmas is a silent night...

hahaaa, that's what ce's shirt says at least! she's actually been pretty good at night. usually she only wakes up once, with occasional solid nights & occasional nights with multiple wake ups.

I have mastered the art of the solo bath- skipping all baby bath accouterments, i just fill up the tub and hold her head above water, it's way easier than all the gadgets. i'd feel guilty about using all that water, but we have a freakishly small tub, so it's not so bad.

rub-a-dub-dub- washing the chub!

 

fluff keeps us company during bathtime, he's a big help as you can probably imagine! 

check up check in!

Cecelia had her 4 month dr visit yesterday & got all good marks! she's above the 95% for height & weight & her head was in the 90th % (i think?)

She weighed in at a whopping 18 lbs 8.7 ozs and 27"

Here is our smiley girl with her dad at Longhorn before our appointment- my camera phone isn't so great in the dim lighting, but it's fun to try to enhance them a little. :)

happy girl!

four months!

holy moly where has the time gone? yesterday was cecelia's 4 month birthday. we celebrated by going down and visiting spa tech so i could show her off to some friends :) we have her well baby pediatricians visit next week (more shots, boo) so i'll post her stats then. she does seem to have hit what is apparently the infamous 4 month growth spurt and she is doing a lot of eating & sleeping these days, also exciting she seems to have learned how to whine. but most of the time she's a happy girl. <3

here she is hanging around in her favorite PJ's on thanksgiving. 

she likes to move it!

Cece has started rolling over. i figured since she didn't like tummy time, she'd roll from tummy to back to avoid it, but i was wrong! she's started rolling back to tummy, and likes being on her belly just fine if she's choosing to be there. that's my girl :)

hello again!

ah, it's hard to keep up with this blog and the baby! we've had a busy month, so I promise i will try to do a proper update soon. until then, here is a cute outtake from trying to take christmas pictures:

even though you can't see him in most of the pictures, beastie cat was hiding out the whole time!

Cece & her furry friends

sure Cecelia has a lot of monkey friends, but she also spends her days with a regular animal kingdom!

here she is with her friend Mugatu. Moog was a big fan even before Cecelia was out in the world, and used to lay on her while she was still a bump. she exacts her revenge by laying on him here!

here is Baxter Hollywood- (this is his "before"picture, he's got a much more fabulous hair cut now)

Baxter makes Cecelia laugh when he chases squirrels in the back yard.

and here she is with the elusive Beastie Cat. he's not really elusive, he just usually isn't hanging around Cecelia too much.

3 months!

happy 3 months beloved baby girl <3

happy halloween!

The Farrers were a family of monkeys. the costumes were nice and easy, and we spent the day driving around to visit everyone. I think next year we'll throw a costume party and let everyone come to us! how does that sound? :) it was good fun though, everyone enjoyed Cecelia, of course, and see seemed to enjoy herself too, she was pretty mellow the whole day. She must have been one tired monkey though, because she slept the whole night! Her first time doing that!

Since Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, Cecelia got dressed up a lot before the big day. :)

This one is still a little big at least.

check out this rockin candy band shirt! Swa-eeeet!

baby wearing hippies (aspiring, at least)

Gramma H bought us a Moby Wrap (link to the site is on the right) so Andy & i have been working on perfecting it ever since. Cece likes riding in it and looking around.  It's made it so much easier to go for walks with Baxter, or to run into the grocery store.  yay baby wearing!

Here's Cecelia checking out Stop & Shop with Daddy!  she's wondering why the milk here comes in a carton, that's not how she gets hers!

cruisin the mall with mom & gramma.

all cozy & snoozing after taking baxter for a walk on a beautiful fall day! a fellow dog walker thought Cece was a puppy tucked in Mom's hoodie. nope, one puppy & one baby!

learning to laugh!

happy birthday gramma h!

more smiles

We're having a lot of fun with Cecelia now that we can make her smile!

more videos!

cutest girl in the world:


Surprise!

smiles

I hope tomorrow is like today...

Today is our anniversary! 2 years ago we tied the knot. it was a beautiful day then, and today! Last year we celebrated by going to Portsmouth, NH for the weekend, this year we have a hot date to bring Cecelia to get her shots. :( poor squid. We don't mind not having any exciting plans though, this year has been busy enough!

getting ready to eat old cake. i'm glad any future cake will be fresh :D

KaPow!!

I'm TWO MONTHS today! whoohoo!

(a blog exclusive photo! this one not of facebook :)

rubber ducky...

We've been pretty lucky and Cecelia seems to enjoy bathtime:

ce's first sponge bath @ home

first real bath, with some help from baxter.

forget that little tub, C is ready for the big leagues! (with some help from mom of course!)

long live bath time! hopefully baby girl continues to like it for a long time!

spontaneous stroll in the woods!

Saturday was perfect fall weather, so Andy, Cecelia & I decided to blow off cleaning the house and headed to Borderland State Park to go for a walk. We discovered that our stroller isn't really made for off roading, so it carried the diaper bag while Andy & I traded off carrying the girl.

Hoping it would be flatter, we ended up doing a longer loop than planned, but it was fun and we should do it more often, maybe with some better planning :)

taking a break halfway(ish)

snuggling with mom

crazy muppet face

beautiful day!!
