Amoriyah's 4 Month Update

We had Amoriyah's 3 month pictures taken at Target on November 1st. I think we got several good ones!
Here's a preview of them below:





On November 30th, Amoriyah had her 4 month checkup. The doctor says she's healthy and doing well!
Her stats were :

15 lbs. 10 oz.
25.5 inches

Along with having her first Thanksgiving which was posted about previously, we started hearing some real, belly-laughs this month!! We actually were able to get it on tape a few times, too. It is one of the best sounds ever. I posted a lot of pictures from this past month.

Thanksgiving 2010

Thanksgiving this year was great. We headed over to Justin and Angela's house (my brother and sister-in-law) and hung out with them, our nieces, my parents and Mamaw just hanging out, watching football and of course, eating some delicious food! This year was particularly special for us because it was Amoriyah's first Thanksgiving :D I do believe she enjoyed herself. It'll be interesting to see her next year when she's walking around and possibly even talking a bit! The above picture was all 3 of us that day. This was actually the picture on this year's Christmas card that didn't get sent out because we received them after we got back from our holiday trip. Below are some of the pics from the day!

More Amoriyah Pics/Updates

Amoriyah is constantly smiling and making lots of noises and talking these days. She's started getting more and more consistent with sleeping and that is great! Yesterday she started bringing a rattle to her mouth to chew on and also held her bottle on her own! Here are the most recent pictures:

We went to the pumpkin patch the week before Halloween and got a few pics. She's still too young for us to do anything really besides walk around but I'm excited for the day we get to actually do things there!

The first 2 months

I just realized the other day that there are no earlier pictures of Amoriyah on here other than the hospital pictures. So, here they are!

Amoriyah is Growing!

Amoriyah will be 3 months old in 5 days! I can't believe it. Time has gone by so fast - it's fun to see her grow and learn but also sad because she's not a little newborn anymore. I'm pretty sure we love her more everyday which I didn't even think could be possible. We are so blessed that God made us her parents!

She shows us more and more smiles everday and makes lots of noises. She's mastered holding up her head pretty well and she's rolled over twice. The first time was at her 2 month check up and the other one was this past Thursday. She LOVES her hands! They're either in her mouth most of the time or she's holding them together at her chest. Can't wait to see what she accomplishes in the near future :D

2 month stats:

11 lbs. 8 oz.
23 inches long

Below are some of our favorite pictures we've taken in the last month or so. Enjoy!
