Ivey's First Vacation

Joe had to go to San Diego for work, so we tagged on an extra day & made it a long weekend.  We were a bit worried about taking a 3 month old on a flight across the country, but Ivey was great on both flights, which the other passengers appreciated. Gramma and Grandad were vacationing in New Mexico, Utah and Arizona right before our trip, so they drove out to meet us, allowing us to go on an anniversary date or two.
We stayed at Mission Beach & were a short walk from both the beach & the bay.  The beach had a great boardwalk and the bay had a paved biking/running trail surrounding it.  It was a constant 65 degrees with light wind.





Ivey's first flight - we were upgraded to first class which was a very nice surprise

We all went to Sea World, but I slept most of the day.

Another Big Week

Daddy went to Orlando for work & we all went to the mountains this weekend to see Grandpa & Grandma.  Ivey figured out a new trick today.  Best way to abort tummy time is to roll over.  Gets lots of applause (see video below).

My very first hike on the Tanawha Trail at the Rough Ridge Overlook.
Was hard to see much other than Daddy's shirt.

Ivey's First Easter!

We celebrated Easter at Gramma & Grandad's house on Saturday. I had fun watching those crazy cousins of mine! We all got dressed up real pretty for church on Sunday.

I thought this was a chocolate bunny

Ivey Love

Here are some recent pictures of our sweet baby girl! She is growing so fast! Can't believe she'll be 3 months old this week. She's still a really good sleeper at night - she's now starting to consistently sleep 10 to 12 hours a night. We're working on getting consistent naptimes during the day. She's taking a long nap in the morning in her stroller while we walk, but nothing consistent in the afternoon yet.

Gammie came to help Daddy when Mommy left me last weekend



Mommy and I were both glad when she got back!





Oh Boy! So many toys to choose from!



Gramma is so much fun!

Wiggly Ivey

Ivey has become a really good wiggler. She's been wiggling herself awake at night. She wiggles herself out of her swaddle so we had to get a better one. Not sure how we're going to get her to sleep without the swaddle. She wiggles across her mat during tummy time rather than lifting her head like she's supposed to. She loves to kick her legs and wave her hands while she's getting her clothes changed. She also likes to kick while she's taking a bath, splashing water everywhere! She doesn't scream during bathtime anymore, but it still is not her favorite thing.

Ivey goes to Charleston

We took our first trip to Charleston to visit Gammie, Aunt Holly, Uncle Ken & Anne. Daddy also ran the Cooper River Bridge Run. It was too cold to see the beach, but we enjoyed taking walks on James and Sullivan's Islands. I went on my first pinic on the way home.  

I love my Gammie - she sings way better than Mommy or Daddy!

Napping with Dad



Not sure about this Mom! Why is this lap so bouncy?



Can't get enough of my Gammie (I think the feeling was mutual)

My first picnic
