Little Miss Smiley

As summer begins to wind down, I'm hopeful that I'll be able to update the blog a little more often than once a month. There are so many little changes in such a short period of time with Capri. She is growing like a weed, smiling like crazy and has discovered her hands and is better able to coordinate grasping her toys, blankets, binkies, and oh yeah my face. I've learned that not only do we clip her little fingernails for her own protection but it is now for ours and anyone else holding her as she tackled my nose last night and there was one little sharp fingernail in there somewhere that I missed. Ouch! I can't get over how much and how fast she is growing. From one day to the next it seems like she is either longer or feels heavier or doing something new that she wasn't doing the day before. She is still really enjoying her "school" and Ryan and I continue to be busy at work and home. Boating season has been a longer one this year, beginning in May and its looking like it will go well into September. As much as I said when I was pregnant that we would likely have a lighter boating season this year, I think we've probably been out more than any other summer...go figure! ;-) I've posted some pictures of Capri below. She is such a happy baby, smiling a lot. We are just waiting for her to start laughing as I think she is getting pretty close to belting out some belly laughs. I hope this finds everyone in good health and enjoying their summer.
