Hello All!
I hope this finds you all well. I am doing great! I am now two months old. I've noticed the people around me refer to my age in months more often than weeks. My Nana played dress up with me again the other day, and this is the result. Aren't I cute? My hairdo is definitely one of a kind, no fuss, no muss. Just wash and BOING! It sure is an attention getter. I can't go anywhere without people gooing over me and my hair! You'd think they've never seen this style before. I guess they forgot about Kramer, Kim Jung Il (North Korean Dictator) and Don King. But I guess they've never seen it on a girly girl before!
My uncles came home this weekend, but everyone was so busy going here and there, Nana is distressed she didn't get everyone together again for another photo op. Michael had the weekend off from football and just had to come home to see me. Because he was home, Brian had to come see him.
Daddy has been working morning watch for two weeks (that's 11pm - 7am), and in honor of his working nights, I've been on morning watch also. I figure if he's awake all night, I might as well be also. Of course, this makes it hard on Mommy, but we all manage to sleep during the day. Daddy had a hard time waking up this weekend, so he didn't spend much time with the uncles.
You can see that even though Mommy and Daddy are wide awake, I have to get my sleep, even though they try to keep me awake during the day. Nana tries to play with me when she gets home and on the weekends, but she just doesn't understand how tiring morning watch can be. Thank goodness Daddy goes on evening watch this week (3pm - 11pm). Hopefully we'll all get on the same schedule. It's too much work trying to keep everyone going.
Well, just between us, I've got these people wrapped around my little finger. Even Uncle Brian was gooing at me this weekend. However, he won't hold me. He says it has something to do with me throwing up on him the last time he was home. I didn't mean to, it just happened. Nana got just as much on her as Uncle Brian and she still holds me! Uncle Michael held me until I started fussing. He held me close, but when I started licking his shoulder, he passed me back to Nana. I just wanted to test him out. Doesn't he remember tasting everything when he was my age? Don't these people know anything?? He goes back to Virginia today and I probably won't see him again until Thanksgiving. He won't know me by then. Uncle Brian starts playing baseball this week, so I probably won't see him much for a while either. He told Nana some coaches are calling him wanting him to play for them next year. I don't understand all that, but as soon as Nana finds out the details, I'm sure she'll share them with you.
I'm tired now, so I think this is all I have to say. Mommy is going to feed me, because I refuse to put that piece of rubber in my mouth and drink from that. Then, I will go to sleep. I know everyone hopes I'll sleep tonight, and since Daddy will be home, I think I will. God bless Mommy, God bless Daddy, God bless Papa and Nana, God bless Uncle Michael and Brian, and everyone else I love.Good night everyone! Love, Makaila
