Amelia's first time to Disneyland, Tea and playtime with her BFF

At just about 3 months old Amelia had her first trip to Disneyland! We went on the Haunted Mansion (which she slept through), Pirates of the Caribbean, Jungle Cruise and her favorite ride, It's a Small World. We had a great family day and Amelia even got her trading pin starter kit! We are looking forward to many more Disneyland trips to come.





Amelia and her cousin Riley did so well at their first visit to Elise's Tea Room with their Great-Grandma, Grandma and Mommies!

Amelia is so fortunate to have a cousin who is just seven months older than her! They are already BFFs.




Amelia turns 2 months old & her 2-month check up

On May 10, 2011 Amelia turned two months old. As usual, we took her monthly pictures next to her Build-A-Bear stuffed animal.

That same day she had her regular 2-month check-up with her pediatrician, Dr. Quan. She did really well with her shots- during and after! During this visit she measured at 11 lbs, 2 oz and 22 1/4 inches long. This month she discovered her hand which we found in her mouth every once in a while - she has yet to find her thumb. She is able to hold her head up for longer periods of time and smiles and "talks" much more each day.

May 2011 Round-Up

Wow, where has the time gone? We look back on our pictures of Easter (and before) with fond memories of our brand new baby! Although she is still relatively new at 5 1/2 months old, so much has changed in the last three months. Here is our attempt at catching up.

The rest of May festivities included April's first Mother's day, Amelia's first trip to see her Grandma and Grandpa Nui (meaning "great") in Oceanside and Amelia's ear piercing.

We spent our first Mother's day at brunch at The Reef in Long Beach with Amelia's Grandma Helen, Grandpa Ken and Uncle Justin.

Easter

Easter was a very busy time for Amelia. She took her first set of mall pictures with the Easter bunny and spent time with the Emmsley, Guerra and Walker families. Her favorite part of the holiday was the time she got to spend with her cousin Riley - they even had matching dresses! We can't wait until they are old enough to hunt for eggs and eat candy from their baskets.

Amelia's first plane ride

At just five weeks old the Walker family took their first trip to visit our good friend Lindsey in Henderson, Nevada. We flew out of the Long Beach airport and into McCarran. Mommy and Daddy were a little nervous about how Amelia would do on her first plane ride but as we should have expected, she did great! The passenger next to us told us that she was the best baby she has ever sat next to - she didn't make a peep the whole way!

During our three day trip we went to the M resort buffet, bowling, visited the Las Vegas sign and walked around the Aria hotel (as well as relaxed and caught up with Lindsey). We are looking forward to our next trip as a family!

On our way back to Long Beach. Empty plane = baby girl gets her own seat!
Of course we had to get a picture of Amelia with her boarding pass.
Amelia's way of saying bye to Auntie L - spit up all over her!
Amelia's Baby Stewie face - one of my favorites!
"Well, hello there Auntie L!"

Amelia's first party

Amelia's Grandma Helen and Grandpa Ken hosted a party for everyone to meet our little bundle of joy. She had many visitors and got to meet so many new people. She slept most of the time but we were able to capture photos to show her how many people were excited to see her.
