Hello Baby Girl! You have been on this Earth for 14 weeks! You are a little over 3 months old. My how time has flown. We love you so much. We had a fun week last night. Grandpa Sampson and Q came over a couple days. While Grandma held/played with you Mommy was able to get a lot of housework done. On Thursday Grandma and Q met us at the cemetery and we all walked together. It was fun. Mommy showed Q one of the grave markers that had a life-size K9 dog. Mommy told Q it wasn't real and that it was made of stone, but when we walked up to it he screamed. Mommy had to remind him it wasn't real and then he was fine. It was so funny. Another thing I want to tell you about that day is about when Mommy showed Q a picture of Jesus on one of the grave markers. Q asked, "Who is Jesus?" Mommy felt a little sad to here that because I think it would be sad to not grow up knowing who Jesus is. Natalia, remember that time when Mommy stood on the elliptical with you (dangerous I know! Mommy will never do it again!) and you could see the picture of Jesus up close. You just kept staring at Him. I am positive you still remember Jesus and imagine you dream about Heaven sometimes. I wonder if it's your heaven memories that make you smile sometimes in your sleep. Anyway, here's a picture of Q asleep on our couch.

Grandma also fell asleep with you. I think she knew I was taking a picture so it wasn't as fun.

Friday morning we went for a long walk around the cemetery and up 7th where we go walking. We were gone outside for 3 hours! That's the longest we've been outside with the stroller. While we were at the cemetery you got hungry so we hung out there for a while so I could feed you and have a break.

Aren't you just so pretty? Later that day we went to our friend, Marcia's house. Marcia was one of Grandma's friends when Mommy was growing up. At Marcia's house we talking about Marcia's family history and her trip to France and Spain. Marcia shared a lot of neat stories I will tell you when you're older. Marcia also taught Mommy how she decorated her home. Mommy learned a lot so know Daddy and Mommy are working on finding a style we like and sticking to it so everything flows together. Oh yeah, Marcia also made some double chocolate chip cookies. They were so good Daddy had to hide them so I wouldn't eat anymore.

Here is your Uncle Brian. Mommy took pictures of him when he came over Thursday or Friday evening because he looks different every week.

What a stud.

 Daddy was silly when Brian and Grandpa were over. He did this to you:

Ha ha You're already looking at what you want from Babies R' Us.

So I caught this picture of you the next morning:

You are just so dang adorable.

Saturday was a fun day. We went to G-Siddoways' house in the morning. We went to the Gateway to take Liz and Steve out to lunch as a thank you. We went to Costco. We also made blueberry muffins to freeze as snacks. These are the oatmeal muffins. They were yummy.

On Sunday we went to the Siddoways'. Eni and Great Grandma Rigby came over to see you. Here you are with Great Grandma Rigby:

We also got these of you after we got home. So a funny story about church...When Mommy was in the hallway holding you and talking to someone, all these elderly women came behind me and were talking/looking at you. Mommy didn't know what was going on. It was funny. You must've been having a good conversation with them.

We took these after we got home from the grandparents' Sunday.

So today Uncle Brian and Grandma came over. Brian and Mommy made Blueberry Banana Oatmeal bars. They were so yummy! We also made more muffins since we still had more cup of blueberries left. So when Mommy bought the blueberries at Costco, it was a little pricey for such small berries. However, with all those berries we made 36 muffins and 18 oatmeal bars for a lot cheaper than it would've been to buy premade snack items we usually get.

 We let Uncle Brian take some home.

Here are the links to the recipes we used for everything:
Insanely Good Blueberry Oatmeal Muffins
Low Fat Whole Wheat Blueberry Muffins
Baked Oatmeal with Blueberries and Bananas

Daddy just got home so time for dinner. Yay! 


We love you Baby Girl. You are turning into a little goof ball. You are so smiley, talkative, and silly. We love you!
