Meeting more Whitings!

Hi Daddy!

Today my Great-Aunt Grace (Grandpa W's little sister), Cousin Jeanette, and Cousin Garrison (he's 3) came over to meet me

Garrison helped Mommy put together a kicking toy from Grandma W.

I can't wait until I'm old enough to play with Cousin Garrison.

Later, Bonnie gave me another bath and then cuddled up next to me.

I love you, Daddy!

Love,
Sabine

(Mommy & Bonnie, too)

My 1 month check up!

Hi Daddy

Mommy took me to see Dr Mindy today.

I'm now 9 lbs. 11 oz. and 22 and 3/4 inches long! That means I've gained almost 4 lbs since the last time I went to Dr. McEntire with you and grown almost 2 inches since my birthday! I'm getting stronger all the time, too. I can lift my head up, but I can't keep it up long. When I'm on my stomach in the crawoling track I can lift up on my legs, and I love to kick and kick and kick. Dr Mindy looked at my hands, and my big toes too. Mommy thought I should be grasping things by now and thought my big toe nails were ingrown. Dr. Mindy told Mommy not to worry so much because I'm beautifuly and healthy.

Dr. Mindy said "Hi" to you and can't wait for you to come home so she can go scuba diving with you and Mommy.

I love you, Daddy!

Love,
Sabine

Pink Bunnies, Bonnie Baths and My Swing

Hi Daddy!
Grandma W dressed me up in a pink bunny snow outfit today. Its really soft and I like the ears

.

Later, Bonnie decided I needed another bath.

After all of that I needed to dry off so Mommy put me in my swing that Uncle Billy gave me.

Wow. That was a busy day!

I love you, Daddy!

Love,
Sabine

(Mommy & Bonnie, too!)

My First Snow!

Hi Daddy!

Today Mommy & I were supposed to go to Doctor Mindy's, but it snowed. So Mommy said we're staying home. I can't wait until you and I can build my first snowman next year!

I love you, Daddy!
Love, Sabine

(Mommy & Bonnie, too)

Just for Daddy

Daddy,

These photos of Mommy and me are just for you. (Caution to all my fans - nursing photos to follow)

I know you miss us and we miss you, too.

Love you Daddy!
Sabine

Just because I'm so cute - here are some photos for you

Hi Daddy! I'm 1 hour old!

I need lots of beauty sleep

But sometimes I'm awake

Sometimes I take naps with Grandpa W by the fireplace, too.

I still have blue eyes like my Daddy.

Mommy gets to see Daddy!

Mommy left me with Grandma and Grandpa W for 3 whole days! They spoiled me rotten - of course. Meanwhile Mommy went to Las Vegas to see Daddy before he left for the Middle East. Mommy said it was good to see Daddy again... even though he grew a mustache. I wish I could have gone, but since I was only 20 days old I wasn't allowed. I'll get to see Daddy this summer though.

I love you Daddy!
Sabine

PS from Mommy:
I'm so glad we got to spend time together. I would have travelled to see you for even 5 minutes if I had the chance. I'll take every moment I can to be with you. I know it will be difficult for you to contact me for awhile, but know that I love you so much.
I love you
Tracie

Meeting Aunt Cindy

Then Aunt Cindy came by. She's Grandma W's sister. Bonnie thinks she's great, too. Good thing, because she's an professional dog groomer. Bonnie can't wait to get beautiful, too.

Visiting Grandma's Office

Of course I had to go to the courthouse to visit Grandma Whiting's office and all the nice ladies there. Mommy had to go to the bank so Grandma took me on a tour of the building and introduced me to everyone.
