A story of a rose

There once was a pretty rose...

beloved by a beautiful girl.

One fine day she picked the rose, and smelled its fragrance...

tasted of its goodness...

and saw that it was good enough.

She gave it as a token of love to the best Nanny is the whole world.

The end.

Four Months

At four months she is still tiny and beautiful.
11 lbs, 4 ozs
24 inches

Roselle Park

Her first swing ride ever, I think she loved it.

I think she may have been more excited about being able to sit up than the swing itself.

Cuddle time, we'd be out there every day if it wasn't so hot!

We found a friend for Giselle, her name is Evelyn and she is 5 months old. Maybe we'll get some pictures of them together sometime.

A stroll...

Thanks Nans for taking the pictures of Giselle and I.

Personality

Her personality is really starting to show. She's been getting more demanding and sensitive if people don't pay her enough attention.
Photos by Nanny

Loves standing, she holds her weight very well.

A moment of sensitivity, she wanted to be held and when I put her down so was so offended she cried. She gets angry (red) eyebrows when she does her offended cry.

Before playing this video, make sure that you volume is up so you can hear her little voice!

Bikini Girl

Photos by Nanny except for the second photo.

Her first bathing suit, had to tie it up a little in the back to make it fit.

She loves taking baths and loves being outside.

Now she's enjoying them both at once.

Next time we found a really cute bikini, it's for 3-6 months, but I think she'll fit in it for a long time, as its not something she'll grow out of length wise.

Chicago

A bit over a week ago we went to downtown Chicago.

Unlike the first time she was there are two weeks when she slept the entire time we were there, she was very awake and very interested in all of the new sights and sounds.

Got to take some pictures of us together. It was very nice weather so she didn't have to be bundled up in blankets.

Here is a really cute one that Gabriella took of the both of us.

Sunning

There are going to be a lot of post within the next week as I do catch up of everything we have been up to.

Here is the first time that Giselle and I spent time outside in the backyard of our new house.

It takes her a little while to get used to the bright lights outside, but she really likes it.

Thankfully it is not that cold anymore so she doesn't have to be in an Eskimo suit everytime I take her outside.

Saying goodbye

Thank you for coming to visit! It was great to have you!

Come back soon!

Godparents Visit

Giselle's godparents came for a visit, it was nice for them to be able to meet their godchild. And for me to visit with my youngest. Sadly, we forgot to take pictures with them together, so next time, and make it soon.

My godson, Reife, swinging Giselle.

My posh little princess and fancy for her godparents visit.

Thank you Ally for taking pictures of our little family.

Put me to sleep little angel

Starting from when she was a wee young sapling, I started to put her to sleep by covering her face with my hand, now she is addicted and can go to sleep in less than two minutes.

She normally grabs my hand or fingers to get me to stay there, and if I move then before she is asleep she gets very sensitive about it and screams at me.

Now she has learned that she can have the same affect on herself. As long as she is not too tired and she is in a comfortable place she can put herself to sleep.
