So Sleepy!

I took this picture of Natlie last week after her supper. As you can see, she really was in need of a nap!

First Teeth!

Last Monday (7-17) we realized Natalie had a tooth that had popped through! It was one of her lower front teeth. She hasn't really been too fussy so we didn't even think any of them would be popping through yet. Later in the week we saw that the one right next to it was making it's way out also! Two teeth already in one week! We are very excited for our big girl and hope that they don't hurt too much.

Cubs win! Cubs win!

On Tuesday July 18th, Natalie attended her first Cubs game at Wrigley Field. She thought it was a lot of fun but watched the people behind us more than the game. She did great the whole game and even stayed awake on the shuttle ride back to the car. Plus the Cubs won the game 4 to 2 so it was also exciting for Mommy and Daddy. We had this picture taken of us by the FanFoto photographer at the game. Below is a picture of Mommy and Natalie taken by Daddy during the 7th inning stretch.

Update

We got a little behind on our posting again. It was a pretty uneventful week but we still managed to stay busy! Natalie went in for her six month check-up last Tuesday. Her stats this month were: 26 1/2" long (75th percentile), 19 lbs 14 oz (95th percentile) and head size 17 5/8" (90th percentile). The doctor said she is still a very healthy little girl and she is on track with everything. She had to endure another four shots though and that is never fun for her nor for Mommy and Daddy! Tomorrow night Natalie is going to her first Cubs game so we will be sure to post some pictures of that event later this week.

Shedd Aquarium

Today was Natalie's first trip to the Shedd Aquarium. She really seemed to enjoy looking at the fish, especially the bright colored ones in the Caribbean Reef. She did really good during the whole day. At the end of the day, she even got a cute starfish t-shirt to remember her first trip to the Shedd!

Independence Day

Natalie had fun celebrating her first 4th of July! Grandma Kathy and Grandpa Rich visited for a few days which was a lot of fun. She had a new outfit to wear that included cute hairbows and sunglasses. That night we went to our friend Niki's house to watch fireworks. Natalie was very interested in the fireworks at first, but then some of the loud ones scared her a bit. She even got to stay out late that night too. Overall it was a great Independence Day!
