Four Months

Wow! Time flies! Natalie had her four month check-up yesterday. She is doing good. She now weighs 16 pounds, 7 oz. and she's 24 1/4 inches long. Mommy calls Natalie her little two-footer! I am having more fun with her now because she likes to pet me. Mommy holds her hand and brushes it over me and says "kitty". Soon enough Natalie will be doing this all by herself!

Happy Anniversary!

I just wanted to wish my parents a happy 2nd anniversary today! They will be bringing Natalie over to Auntie Em's and Uncle Sam's while they go out to dinner. Mom and dad have reservations at Pazzaluna in downtown St. Paul. Then they plan to see the ice sculptures in Rice Park--the site of their wedding. It's become a tradition to see the sculptures every year. The temperatures have gone down dramatically since yesterday so it will be a cold, quick trip through the park.

Catch you later!

It's Been Awhile

Natalie had a little scratch on her nose. Daddy put Natalie in a pillowcase! Weird!
Fun times at Granny and Gramps!

Bad hair day???!!!
Natalie waves "hello".
We're hanging out. I wanted to lay on my back just like my sister.

So January has been a little hectic and a little sad for our family. Mommy has been back to 5 day work weeks and daddy has been taking care of Natalie during the day and working in his spare time. Two close friends of the family passed away this month. Judy, Steph's mom, and Gayle, Glennys' best friend, have been taken from us. It's been hard!

Natalie is growing fast. She's four months old tomorrow. It seems like when the camera comes out, she freezes up and won't smile. Thanks for checking my blog. Sorry it's been so long. I'm going to try and be more up to date from now on.

The Tan Man

Welcome Noah!!

Today, mommy, daddy, and Natalie went to visit baby Noah Harrison Theisen at the hospital. He was born late last night and weighed in at 7 pounds, 2 oz. He has a good amount of dark hair and is very cute! His mom, Julie, is recuperating fine after the c-section. Now Natalie has a new little friend!

New Year, New Fun

Natalie has many new things to explore. She has only tried the jumper once and seemed to like it but doesn't have the hang of it yet.

The Bumbo chair has been really fun for her. She can sit and watch everything that goes on.
Lots of stuff to do and lots of laughs and smiles too!!

Happy New Year!!

We all had such a wonderful 2007. We want to thank all the family and friends that have welcomed Natalie into our family this past year. So many of you have given us baby items and advice throughout the year and it has been very appreciated. We are very blessed and look forward to 2008!!!

Thanks for reading and keeping up with my blog. I may only be a two year old cat but I know how important it is to stay close to family and friends.

Love you all!
Tanner
