The last 2 weeks (more or less)

Though it’s only been a week and a half since the last post, it sure seems like a lot longer.  As usual we’ve been busy around here.  But not in our usual way, no in a new little sister kind of way.  And other….I’ve been sick, gotten Daddy sick and Capriana is in a continual growth spurt and Mommy isn’t getting much of a break.

A closeup of Capriana during her first bath.

If you look close, you can see the front of her head is blonde and the back is dark. Which one is going to win? Or will she be forever punk?

She must have just eaten, look at that belly!

Ok, maybe not, she’s pretty skinny

Daddy got artsy and took this pick in the mirror.

Blonde from the front.

Ok, obviously you notice her shades. Now look at her onesie, hearts too

Aren’t we a couple of cool _____? Sorry, Daddy doesn’t know the latest hip terms. Geez Dad, you should have just said “rad” and showed your 80’s roots.

Here she is crashed out on Grandma Jennings lap. Both were very happy.

I mean really crashed. (Daddy told me not to mention the mosquito bite on her cheek, so I won’t)

My Great Aunt Nancy and my Grandma and Grandpa Jennings got me a present in case I was feeling left out. THOMAS! I love Thomas the train. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!

Here Grandpa is showing me how to turn on the engine. It’s motorized with a battery and goes by itself.

Pretty self explanitory….

Bath #2, aint’ she cute?

Oops slipping a little. I remember before I was a big boy and that was my bath tub.

Mommy took her out and put her in Daddy’s truck. Doesn’t she look comfy?

She told me she could get used to riding in the truck. I know I liked it.

And here is when Mommy told her Daddy had sold the truck.

And here I am a little while later watching them load the truck to take to Louisiana. Daddy sold his truck to a man there who is going to use it on his farm. We’re all going to miss it. Bye-bye truck.

Footprints! (and a thumb print)

On Friday, we went back to the birth center for Mommy and Capriana’s 10 day check up.  Also, on that visit, it’s the birth center’s tradition to put the baby’s footprints on the wall.  As a sibling not born there, I don’t get to put my feet up, but I get to put my thumb print up.

Here’s Capriana getting her foot inked up.

And here’s Daddy putting it on the wall.

Here I am pointing out the footprints and my thumb print. You may ask yourself how do you know who’s is who’s?

This is how! You write the names, weight and size on the wall next to the prints. (She’s the only one with the name Capriana in the whole place)

And here I am holding “The Baby”. If you look to the right of the picture, below the window you can see the footprints.

More Capriana, Halloween, Granparents & me

As you can probably guess, the last week around here has been pretty crazy.  We had dr’s appt’s, visitors and Halloween.  Here are some pics to document the week.

Here I am in my Fireman costume. I kept thinking I was going to get to DRIVE a fire truck, but no so much.

And, don’t forget my Spiderman boots

Did I mention I like to drive? Here I am taking the truck for a spin.

Get in, Daddy!

Posing like a model. Nice head turn, huh?

Levi’s and Converse, nuff said.

Here is Grandma Jennings holding Capriana, I pronounce it (Cottinonna or Cockynonna)

And here I am with Grandpa Jennings. He’s reading a train book to me and teaching me about engines.

Mommy, Capriana and I were just hangin’ out watching tv. Of course Daddy had to keep taking pictures?

Cozy, peaceful.

So, they got artsy and put her in this basket. I guess it worked.

T-I-N-Y feet.

With Mommy and Daddy’s rings. Thanks for the idea, Matt.

Capriana has a butterfly bum, if you didn’t notice.

Mommy took these pics in one of the new outfits she got. Nice pants.

She’s watched Mommy for a week, and now she wants the remote!

She’s just relaxing and adjusting her hat.

I also call my little sister, Nonna, Sister and usually The Baby.  None are approved nicknames according to Mommy and Daddy.
