Baby Bug's Birthday... and Kitty Too!

Happy Two Month Birthday, Nolan!  At his checkup yesterday, he passed all of his tests and weighed in at a whopping 12lbs, 8oz, and 24 1/4 inches long.  He is in the 70th percentile for weight, and 90th for height.  How two "Vertically challenged" people could have a baby in the 90th percentile for height is beyond me... but we will take it in a heartbeat.  He's a strong, healthy, BEAUTIFUL baby boy and we are so Blessed to have him here. 

Today also marks the day I brought home Baby Baxter.. three years ago.  Thanks to Auntie Jackie for suckering me into that one... How can you say no to an adorable kitten under your desk!?!  "Mew.. Mew..."  So cute.  Hard to believe that someone who is allergic to cats and "not a cat person" in the least could become so attached, but having a pet has been something so rewarding.  Although he's a terror and thinks he's a dog on most days, we love him just the same.  Happy Adoption Day, BooBoo!

 Nolan's excitement for the last couple of weeks include meeting tons of new people... Aunt Mary Ellen & Cousin Debbie were on the list and were able to accompany Nolan on his first pontoon boat ride at Grandma & Grandpa Grimes! He loved it!!!



Meeting Baby Jackson was also an exciting day for Nolan -- the son of our wonderful friends, Casey & Tracy, Jackson is five months old and just as cute as a button.  The boys had fun together -- we can't wait to spend time with them up north this Fall.  Together, these two could get into quite a bit of trouble.  Oh boy..!



Nolan also made his first trip to a Sports Bar (thank you Grandma & Grandpa)... he loved that too.  He went from watching Golf.. to Football.. to Baseball.  :)  He let us all eat our dinner in peace, it was beautiful.  This week he made his first trip to the Ann Arbor Art Fair where he slept the whole time despite the ridiculous heat.  He met Amy and saw her amazing artwork... she is so talented!!  Check it out for yourself!  http://bit.ly/amyart

Mommy's time at home is winding down, so more fun & people coming soon.  :)

XOXO!
