Life by Design: 18 weeks, 4 months, and a Christening

After the hub bub of Thanksgiving, thing are not winding down, Vaughan has started waking up around 1am and 5am hungry. I think she's just going through a growth phase, a short growth phase I hope.

Wednesday

Dad got a little floor exercise in with Vaughan to stretch before her trip tomorrow.

Thursday

Playgroup is starting to get more active.Here's a little peak of the excitement.

After playgroup Vaughan got in a little Mom Daughter play time before it was time to hit I-10.

Friday

Happy 4 month birthday baby Vaughan!

We made it to Hotel Hubby in good time Thursday night but all the sleeping in the car made for little sleeping at night. Friday afternoon mom had to check on progress at Audubon but then everyone gathered together for a little College Inn.

Saturday

The big event, Vaughan's christening. Hubby was able to arrange for a private christening at Holy Name with Father Shot who was the principle of Jesuit when Gramps Hillery was there.

Aunt Bebe and Joey were the godparents.

A little behind the scenes action

And Vaughan is ready to go

Let the ceremony begin!

Vaughan was a very good sport , a little crying but who wouldn't be intimidated by the crowd and cold water?

Bye Bye Holy Name

Hello Party

Of course, What day in Nola would be complete without a little game of Hearts with Dawes?

Sunday

We spent a little time with Hubs and Dawes before hitting the road again.

And then Vaughan was in her seat again, just like that.

She got a little tired of this seat as you might imagine, so when we got home we put her on her mat to stretch out and she instantly went to this postition. It made us laugh watching her.
