Hanging out with my brother

Nicholas is a great big brother...he just loves me.  I am hoping that he starts to call me Sam or Samantha soon. He has been calling me baby, but I am now 4-months old and I won't be a baby for long... but I will always be his baby sister.  Mom and Dad should be starting to make my 4-month old sign any day now so stay tuned.

I have been spending some time on Skype talking to Grand Mom and Pop Pop Pifani....and I love to laugh, smile, and try to talk when I see them.  This video conference thing is great... I need to talk to Dad about getting more online access!

Grand Mom and Pop Pop Trasatti took me to the Cape May Ferry and it was great. Grand Mom bundled me up so I stayed nice and warm.  We saw the ferry go by and we waved to all the people on-board... well, everyone waved except for me because I am only 4-months old... I can't wave yet.

Mom bought me baby cereal this week so it looks like I will start getting some food very soon.  I watch Mom and Dad eat their snack at night and I have to tell you... it is torture.  Dad loves his weight watchers ice cream snack and every time he gets a spoonful I hope that the next one is for me.  I know once GrandMom and Pop Pop Trasatti read this I will get some ice cream very soon!

Hanging out in my walker

Mom and Dad put me in my walker last week and I am starting to 'explore the space'. Daddy says that I remind him of Nicholas because he started out in the walker the same way...pushing himself backwards. I desperately want to talk and am doing my best by making all kinds of noises. I love to laugh when Mommy plays with me. I especially like to be scared...that is guaranteed to get me to laugh all of the time.

I am starting to sleep much better at night, but for some strange reason I am not napping much during the day. I don't care for the bouncy seat or for the car seat when I am awake...I want to be held 100% of the time.... call me high maintenance, but I am very cute so I should get what I want right?

I will be 4-months old in a few days so you know what that means... Mom and Dad better start working on that sign! And, maybe Mom and Dad will start feeding me some baby cereal soon?

And thanks Aunt LaLa and Uncle JJ for the Easter basket... I love it!

Better late than never

From 2009_03_09

Well, Mom and Dad finally took my picture for my 3-month old sign. They were only 2 weeks behind... not too terrible for the 2nd child. I noticed my brother got his monthly pictures in a much more timely manner.

I am growing more and more every day. I am getting better at napping throughout the day which makes it much easier to put me to bed at night... you would never know it by looking at me, but I can be a bear if I don't get my beauty sleep.

I am drooling like crazy as it looks like I am starting to teethe already... you can see two white dots on my gum where my bottom right tooth will eventually come in.

Mommy and Daddy are taking Nicholas and I to my cousin Maria's house to celebrate her 2nd birthday on Saturday! Nicholas and I are very excited to give Maria her presents.
