Poor Sick 5 Month Old...

Dublin was sick for the first time over the Thanksgiving holiday.

She had fever from Friday until Sunday. She was a trooper.

She was so sad and congested. It took all her energy to cry and cough.

 She is 5 months old today! We will post some more cheerful pictures to commemorate her 5 month milestone when she is feeling more like herself. 

Football Weather

Dublin is ready for the cooler weather we've had the last week or so....

Here she is tail-gating with Daddy and the Chief's fans.

Look What a Little Time Can Do...

It's amazing the change from 1 week to 4 1/2 months!

Dublin wore the same hat she came home from the hospital in the other day. She barely fit in it then (too big)---and she barely fits in it now (too small)!!!

I found my toes!

Rockin' and Rollin' Over

Although we have been practicing this for weeks, this was probably just an accidental move....BUT we are counting this as her first time to roll over. She rolled from her back to her tummy.

Our Sweet Pea is Growing...

Dublin turned 4 months old on Thursday. She has had a very busy week!

 On Wednesday, she went to the doctor and had her shots. She handled them very well----just sleepy and a little fussy like last time. She is now 12 pounds, 3.5 ounces; 24 inches long; and her head is 16 inches around. She has almost doubled her birth weight!!! 

Thursday she had her very first Fall Festival. She brought home a cookie and a paper bag pumpkin for Mama & Daddy. 

She rode in her school's character parade in her sweet pea costume. They promised us pictures, so I will post them as soon as I get them. 

We dressed up as a farmer and her pea pod. 

Dublin didn't make it long for handing out candy---She was asleep before the doorbell even rang!  She loves her evening nap. She woke up to eat then back to bed. There are photos posted of her very happy first halloween!
