Looking Fashionable

Fiona's Auntie Jan in NYC sent along a very cute outfit for her --- to counteract the fleece and gore-tex fashion that dominates life in Seattle. Fiona was pleased.

Growing up so fast!

This past Tuesday Fiona had her two month appointment with her pediatrician. Here are her stats at this point:

Height/Length - 23 1/4 inches (75-90 percentile)
Weight - 11 lbs 3.5 oz (50-75 percentile)
Head Circum - 40 cm (75 percentile)

Eyes still blue
Light brown hair beginning to take on a faint reddish tint in some light



Fiona is beginning to coo and talk, especially right after having a good nap and feed. We're so thankful for her sweet, mellow personality (with a dash of spunk and spirit) and ability to sleep through the night with just one "snack" around 3 am. It's amazing to see how different each child is at each stage.

Halloween

On Halloween my family went to celebrate at church with a really fun Harvest party. Last year I dressed up for Halloween as a firefighter, but this year I decided to be a ninja. Though it turned out that I was an injured ninja with a sprained foot from a vicious street fight.

...who was asleep like always. Mom had a really cute costume for Fiona (a little flower), but she decided to snore her way through the Harvest party at church.


Face painting. I asked for a scary dragon, but instead she gave me a...

...cute little pumpkin. After the party, my parents didn't wash my face before bed and so I woke up with a perfect "stamp" of the pumpkin on my sheets. I still ask about the pumpkin most days when I wake up in the morning.
