Baby found her thumb

Daddy is funny, too!

Mommy is funny

She's already changed so much since we filmed this video!  We'll get an updated giggle video uploaded soon!

Escapee from baby prison

The little chubster is 4 months old!

Today is Bernie's 4-month birthday!  She has gained so many skills recently, such as giggling, sucking her thumb, and generally taking a much greater interest in the world around her.  

The pediatrician gave us the green light to start feeding her solid foods, so mom and dad are very excited about trying that out.  In the meantime, here are some chubby pics of our little milk monster:

"MOAR milk please!!!"

"Yeah I'm chubby and you love it!"

Three month portraits

We were pretty late taking Bernie's 3-month portraits ... but we're even later posting them, so it cancels out, right?  (She'll actually be 4 months old this week!)

First, some relatively normal pictures:

"So, you want me to act all happy on command again, huh?"

"Ah, alright, the ham in me is winning out!  Step aside, Monkey!"

"Go on, adore me!"

"Oh, Monkey, let me tell you something..."

"You're beautiful.  Don't let anyone tell you otherwise."

"I'm cute and magnanimous!  I know, I know!"

"Sigh, such a long photo shoot; I'm fatigued."

And now, a monkey fight sequence:

"Hey, you!"

"That's right, you, wise guy!"

"Take..."

"...that!!!"

"What?  We're not fighting!  We're friends, see?"

"Yup, nothin' but good times!"

"Ha!  I can't believe she fell for that!"

First Bridal Shower!

Bernie attended her first bridal shower!  Congratulations, Aunt Annie!!! 

"Ooooh, cool party!"

Watching the bride-to-be open presents.

With Auntie Jean.

An aunt and an aunt's aunt!

An aunt and an aunt's aunt and an aunt's aunt ... whew!

Annie's college friends, Evan and Liza.

The ladies of honor!  Bride, mother of the bride, and mother of the groom.

Bernie & her mobile: a love story

"I love you, mobile!"

"You love me, too!?  Wow!"

So happy together....

Bernie's room

"Yes, mother, what is it?  Can't you see I'm reading in my room right now?"
