Tiny Little Fingers...Big Chubby Cheeks!!

I feel like we could post a million pics like this of our little sweet bean. Since the day she was born it seems like she has been knitting her little hands together. It cracks us up!! She is so busy busy with those hands. We joke that she is worried there might not be anymore milk :) One of my favorites is when I find her busted out of her swaddle blanket with just her hands peeping out the top. I need to make sure I write down these little things. I never want to forget when she gets bigger!!

Here is our cutie pie in a dress to match her nursery! I couldn't pass it up. Check out those cheeks. They seem to just keep growing and growing and I love it!! For now her eyes are big and blue just like her daddy's. I'm not sure how long we wait to see if they change but I sure hope they stay!!

Winter in the Windy City...Winter Keough that is!

Winter has officially taken her first trip on an airplane to The Windy City. I could not have done it without help from Mike. My hats off to all the ladies who brave the airport by their lonesome. On the way there I felt like I was praying for her to not make a peep and doing bottle, passy, bottle, passy. We made it in one piece...thank you Lord!!
We went to Chicago for a friends wedding but most of all to see Mike's parents, sister Lori, and our three nieces Lauren, Erin & Leah. It was the first time for Lori and the girls to meet Winter and we had such a great time!!
We drug Bean to the Shed Aquarium on that Friday. I say drug because it was poring rain, she screamed the entire car ride over, and there were no less than 60,000 people at the aquarium. School is done and the kids were out in sheer force. We still had a great time though. Check out the leaping dolphins below!
This is Winter with her sweet cousin Erin. Erin had the magic mothering touch. Whenever Winter was crying we would pass her to Erin and voila...she would stop. Thanks Erin! You were a HUGE help!! Isn't our niece a heart breaker already :)

Flying the Friendly Skies

Yahoo we survived our first trip on a plane. As you can see I was not seated in an aisle. I can't figure out which seat is better, aisle or window. Aisle means I don't have to climb over my neighbor to change a diaper, window gave me a place to prop her up to sleep. She seems pretty content. It was mom on pins and needles :)

This is me at the Shed Aquarium with Bean. Mike thought this picture truly captured the essence of how I was feeling that day. I have never seen so many people in once place. It was a zoo!! We had a fabulous time and Winter seemed no worse for the wear, as always, knitting those hands together.

Mike's family was so AWESOME to watch Winter while we went to the wedding. I think she had a much better time with her cousins then she would have had with us. What a fun picture Lori took of all the cousins!!

Here is the whole crew minus the camera man Mikey!! He was looking pretty good that day surrounded by all the ladies :) From the left is our niece Erin, Mike's sister next to me, our niece Leah, and our niece Lauren. Amazing how fast all of these girls are growing up. We just wish we lived closer so we could be more involved in their lives. Seems like each time we visit there are so many changes. This time Lauren is officially a certified driver. CRAZY and EXCITING!!! I remember thinking that license was the key to my freedom!!! Of course sweet Lauren in using her new license to help out around the house by running errands. I'm pretty sure that is not what I used mine for...sorry mom!! Lauren you are amazing!

Casa de Keough has finally made it to the world of blogging. It has taken us awhile because although Mike's favorite song to sing is "I love technology..." Lindsay needs to be the blogger and I am not so much a fan of technology!! BUT we now have a fabulous reason to get on the blogging band wagon...yes of course it is our precious baby girl Winter Kate Keough. She has arrived and we want to make sure everyone has up to date pictures. So here goes...
This is our sweet baby girls stats from her two month check up. I guess you can say our sweet BIG baby girl :) She LOVES milk!!!
Here she is doing here favorite chant..."milk, milk, milk!!" We love to see these sweet smiles. Poor little thing had a major freak out when they gave her the 2 month shots. Mom had to leave because she couldn't stand to hear her cry.

This photo was taken on June 6th...Winter's two month birthday. This cute onesie is part of a set of twelve we got from our family friend Dara Davidson. Her and her friend created them...they are called twelvsies :) Check them out at www.shopkindred.com
I got my daddies beautiful big blue eyes!!
Gretzky and Allie have been taking the whole baby addition really well. Every time I lay a blanket down on the ground for tummy time Gretzky runs over and lays on it.
Gretzky is a big fan of tummy time...he likes to lick Winter's toes!

She looks so tiny in this picture to me now. This was her first wedding. We stuck that bow in there with corn syrup. She almost stole all the attention from the bride :)

This is my worried face...I make it pretty often. I'm trying to figure out what is going on in this new big world!

When I wake mommy up in the middle of the night I just have to give her one of these smiles and she can't help but love me even more!!

We can't get over her little hands. She knits them together constantly. This one looks like she is doing a little vogue pose.

More with the hands on my one month birthday!

Since she was born Mike has been in love with these little feet. It is hilarious how they bend in and tuck up close to her body. She sure was squished in the womb pretty tight. Amazing how God fits these little ones in there!

Winter agrees that God sure is amazing!!!

Granny Peaches and Grampy came to visit me when I was three weeks old. I gave them my first real smiles when Granny would get up with me in the morning. Look mommy actually showered!!

Aren't my Granny and Grampy cute!! They played with me so much when they visited. I can't wait to see them in Chicago in June!

Daddy and I love to watch the Stanley Cup Playoffs together.

!!!GO WINGS!!!

Sometimes I fall asleep during the games but daddy doesn't mind!

Little Winter in the hospital. When she was born she was so swollen. I looked over and saw her in the bassinet in the operating room and couldn't believe my baby had been born so big!!

This is our amazing doctor. We LOVE her!!

This picture cracks me up!! I can't get over those chubby cheeks!!

My Mimi made sure that she would be in town when I was born. Broken arm and all!! She had perfect timing!!
