October Fun

Carly and I enjoyed our last few weeks of my maternity leave. Here are some pictures of various things we did in October.

Carly, John, and I went to the State Fair 2 weeks ago. It was a beautiful, comfortable day to be at the fair - a much better day than the first time we ventured to the fair. Temperatures in the 80s are much better than temperatures in the 90s!

This was one of the first times Carly rode in her stroller without the car seat. She did okay. She has pretty good head control, but she still slumps a lot in the stroller. I'm sure she'll fit better in it soon. She clearly got comfortable eventually. She actually slept most of the time we were there!

Thanks Auntie Laura for the cute shirt. (The Warrior was my high school mascot.)

Look, I can sit up - when Mom is holding my hand!

Carly in her bumbo. Check out all those rolls. I can't wait to find out how much she weighs at her 4 month appointment!

Flying on Mom's legs. She smiles and giggles while she's flying, and its great exercise for me.

Random shot, but cute smile.

This cute shot of Carly snoozing was taken during the Texas-OU game watching party at our house. Every year we have a crowd of folks over to our house to watch the game. Everyone was worried they would wake her up, but she was perfectly content and completely zonked out in her bouncy. In fact, she slept better in the bouncy than she did in her crib upstairs during the game. Even the loudest yelling from the crowd didn't bother her!

John's friends Shawn and Angela stayed with us for the weekend. Carly was all decked out in her TX-OU game watching gear. Thanks Ashley and Ryan for the cute outfit!
