Whistler Anniversary Trip!

Brett and I decided last minute to head up to Whistler for our 3 year anniversary!  Brett happened to have 3 days off in a row so it was the perfect amount of time to get away and enjoy some snow!  Trevi took her first mini-vacation and did really well!  She slept the entire 6 hours up and back and she was such an angel each day we were up there!  She even allowed us an anniversary dinner out (while she slept peacefully in the ergo front pack) and we got to do a hot tub soak each night while she napped in her car seat!  Nights were a little off for her.  She cried a lot but I am thinking she was just confused from sleeping in her moses basket in the bath tub.  I would probably cry too.  Since we booked last minute we could only get a studio room so into the bath tub she went!  All in all it was a great few days away and it makes me excited to take her to many more new places!

Daddy got her picture taken with Santa before we left!  He visited our neighborhood!

 Happy girl!

 Enjoying carrying her around in the ergo baby pack!

6 weeks with baby!

 We are getting lots of smiles these day!!!

 Enjoying the sunshine on Teodoro Christmas Day!!

"Look how long I am getting! I have out grown a set of jammies!"

 My little niece Violet was very intrigued with Trevi!

 Maybe she though it was another one of her babies!

 A rare moment when she actually liked the swing!


Smiley baby!!!

 Probably her favorite time of day!

 Out doing something with daddy!

Peanut Update!

After just five and half weeks I feel like she is already out-growing clothes and getting bigger by the day! It is sad but also very fun!
 We do lots of front packing! She loves it!

 She feel asleep so I used it as an excuse to nap also!  This was after 2 hours!

 Couch photo session!  She can totally sit up without help! Notice the shirt sleeves now look like 3/4 length sleeves. 

 We have a smiler!

 She is very proud of herself!

Daddy date night!  He is so good to her!  She LOVES the bath!!!!

5 WEEK OLD BABY!

Trevi is 5 weeks old today and I feel like she is getting so big!!!  Last time we weighed her she was 8 pounds 5 ounces and she is filling out and looking taller than ever! We have been doing some fun stuff with her and thankfully capturing some pictures while doing it!  Here are some pictures from her latest adventures!
 I think the babe had a tummy ache so I put her down like this and she immediately fell asleep which then turned into a 2 hour nap!!

We spent most of Tuesday touring Vashon Island! Trevi got her first boat and ferry ride!  She did great!
 
Pete got to go too!
  She loves her car seat!

  We also stopped by Brett's grandparent's old cabin on the island and snapped a few photos!  Brett has great memories from going there as a kid!

The walkway down to the cabin! I love the fall leaves!
 
 We even checked out the lighthouse on the island!

 Trevi's first piece of mail!!!!  She has a SSN number!

Daddy tried the tummy ache position and she enjoyed watching some tv!
GO SEAHAWKS!!!
She heard they got a touchdown!
Thanks Chris and Kelly for the Hawks gear!

Brett's sister is here visiting from Okinawa so we have been doing lots of family time with her and her kids!  Here are some pictures thus far.

 Michelle with Trevi and Erica with Memphis!

 GG (Grandma Marian) holding Trevi!

 All the cousins!!!!  Trevi (5 weeks), Memphis (5 weeks), Mia (3 months), Olivia (2), Coco (3) and Gavin (5)

 We got Trevi her own stocking!  She is also wearing her gift from cousin Rachel!  Monthly onesies!

 The only time she will ever fit in her stocking!

 She was not a huge fan of the bear suit but we had to get a picture of her in it!

 She did however love playing with Daddy!

These last 35 days have flown by!  I have gone from exhausted to even more exhausted and then back to well-rested which then leads to being more tired.  It is a vicious cycle.  Trevi is such a fun baby and I have loved ever minute of her!  We spend our days doing fun things around the house and we even make it out the door to run errands a few days a week! :)  

Thanks for checking in on us! We love sharing updates about our peanut with everyone!

 Trevi is a month old!
I really cannot believe that she is already a month old.  She is starting to coo and make other funny sounds and we have had a growth spurt.  I weighed her and I am pretty sure she is somewhere around 8 pounds 3 ounces!  Growing like a weed and I am so proud!

 Hahaha, a little confused.  Paci or finger to soothe?!?!?

 Nap pre growth spurt.  Naps have been a little off since. 

 Really not too sure about this swing thing. 

 Nap post growth spurt.  We'll take what we can get! However, look at those cute little thighs!  Evidence of the extra pound and ounces!! :)

 Sweet girl!

Daddy sneezing and she is giving him a sympathy cry!

 Our Christmas tree! The house smells sooooo good!

 Stockings! Trevi's is on the way!  No coal at our house this year!

 Proof that brother still exists!!!  
He is fascinated by Trevi and wants to be part of feedings and naps!  Plus, he is a great excuse to get out and take lots of walks!

Thanks for checking in on us!!  We are having so much fun with our little girl and we are really excited about our first Christmas with her!
