Natasha does not understand getting her picture taken, and generally ends up getting pretty tired and sad from the ordeal. Poor girl, with the big blue eyes.
Natasha, like her mom, is easily distracted by bright colours and sounds. We've bought her an exersaucer, and here is a video of her enjoying it. She doesn't really understand that she is causing the sounds being made (she hits the buttons by accident), but is entertained nonetheless.
Natasha went for her 3 month check up, and got her two month boosters. She did great with the needles, and was only a little sore afterwards. However, she has grown a ton, and is up to 13 lbs, 12 oz! She has also grown from 51 cm to 58, which is great!
When at the cottage, it is the general rule that you should be as relaxed as possible, which normally involves sleep, and then once relaxed, play around in the water or boat. Here are some pics of Natasha doing both!
Natasha's first trip away from home was to Stony for the Labour Day long weekend. Natasha enjoyed the extra attention, and Ryan enjoyed the water skiing!
Today - with my mom's great connections, we got massages! Mom and I enjoyed ours, and Natasha *really* enjoyed hers. This is going to be my secret weapon to get her to sleep - she loved the foot massage the best.
On Friday, August 8, 2008, we had the honour of attending Kat and Dan's wedding. We were terrified that Natasha would ruin it all by screaming during the speeches or the ceremony, but she was very, very good, and let us stay right into the dance!
