Check Out These Cheeks

Alexis has been very busy chubbing up. Her cheeks are just the chubbiest things ever. Sometimes I am just not sure she could get those things any chubbier. Of course, I can't say too much because I am well aware where she got them, haha. I must say that it is true the camera does add at least 10 pounds too, so keep that in mind. She is 2 months old (and 2 days, in case you like to be very specific) now. Time is flying, which makes me just a tad bit sad.Sometimes she likes to wear her brother's old sleepers (Shhh..don't tell my mom).

Alexis was wearing these super cute overalls on Friday and I really wanted to get a good picture of her. I took about 20. I moved her all over trying to find a less chubby angle, it seems as though that angle does not exist at this time. But there is no shame in baby chunk.
This is my favorite pic right now. It is really hard to capture a smile.

Oh and here is a picture of Alexis and I, taken by Matthew of course. He laughed afterwards and said "I think I forgot to get Alexis in the picture". Alexis has her 2 month appointment tomorrow. Matthew likes to go to provide entertainment for the nurses. Last time as we were walking to the exam room and there were nurses and doctors rapidly walking from room to room Matthew throws his arms up and says in a booming voice "Listen, this is not MY appointment." During our visit nearly every nurse came by to talk to him about how the appointment that wasn't his was going. He does however gladly choose something from the treasure box when given the option, regardless of whose appointment it is.


And in other news...


Matthew has been creating his own unique ensembles alot lately. Erik was cracking up when he got home last week and found Matthew dressed in his sweater vest and "sweating" pants, I forgot to warn him of the interesting selection before he arrived.

Great pictures, and keep that baby chunk for a L O N G time if you can! We're just getting ours back.
Oh my gosh, she looks JUST like you (no, I am not saying you are chunky...just she does look like you) and she is so cute. Let us know her "vitals" after tomorrow's appointment!

She is beautiful and I really need to bond with her. (That's what I told Phil) Matthew is as cute as ever and his antics always make me laugh. Seeing as Erik was almost 10 pounds when he was born and couldn't hardly open his eyes since his eyelids were fat, I don't think Alexis is all that chunky. She looks just right!!! Erik wound up being a skinny short child who always smiled. Love you guys!

Wow those pictures are amazing. What a beautiful little girl you have!!! SO wish I could be there to pinch and kiss those cheeks, and generally love all over her. :) Matthew is so handsome in his new outfit. He could start a trend. Sort of the casual, but sophisticated look! I'm glad he is enjoying being a big brother. I want to call, but I just feel sick all the time. I will eventually get to it. I figure since Alexis is two months old I should at least say hi! :)

Thanks for sharing Megan! Even with all these adorable baby pics I couldn't help but notice how great you look! I love that picture of you and your hair is getting so long haha! I can't wait to cuddle Alexis and you must allow Matthew to dress himself at least once when you guys visit!

I am not saying this just because I'm your friend (although I am!) but that is one beautiful baby girl! I would think that even if I didn't know you!!! She is so gorgeous. That little boy of yours is super adorable too...love the outfit! By the way, I think Matthew is our favorite name at the moment...so we might have to copy you on that if we have a boy... :) But that's a secret...so shhhh!
