This weekend Adam, Natalie and I went up to Grand Rapids to visit Grandpa and Grandma Bonasera. It rained most of the weekend, but on Sunday the sun decided to come out.

A few of the rainy day activities

Natalie's first boat ride

Natalie's first lake experience - she loved to bury her feet in the sand!

Grandpa and Grandma had a new toy that Natalie LOVED!

The Movie Star

Natalie and Adam playing their new game where Adam blows in Natalie's face and she laughs and smiles!

The Good and the Bad

The good thing is that is has been so nice out lately that Natalie and I have been able to go swimming, go for more walks, and just get out of the house! The bad thing about that though is that I haven't been able to post for over a week! So, in order to update you all, this will be a long post (lots of pictures/videos).

Natalie has been enjoying the pool much more since the water is finally starting to get warmer!

This is Grandma Pool reading to Natalie after her swim.

How time flies!

Yikes! Has it really been over a week since my last post?! I promise you all that I will get some pictures and stories posted soon, but for right now here is a picture.

Natalie's First Shots

Okay, so no one told me how hard it would be to watch my daughter cry so hard her face turned dark red! Natalie had her two month "well child" check up today and got her first immunizations - drops in her mouth and three shots in her legs. She did great with the drops, but once that first needle got stuck in her little leg she started crying like I've never heard before! Then there were two more after that and the third one was the one that stung the worst! It was so hard I couldn't even watch them poke her.

The most amazing part though was when she was done and I could pick her up and give her a hug, she quieted down almost the second I picked her up. Right now she is sleeping and seems to be doing fine. I guess next time I'll be prepared!

On a little happier note, she got measured again and has grown (obviously!) since the last time we went to the doctor:

Head circumference: 15 1/2" (66%)

Length: 24 1/2" (98%)

Weight: 13 lb. 9 oz. (97%)

The Perfect Father's Day

Visiting at Grandpa and Grandma Bennett's house

Another attempt at a swim - not so bad this time (no cries)!

Family Visits and Playing with Dad

Natalie and Dad playing (I wish we had gotten a video of this - it was too cute!)

Natalie's new napping seat?

Or is it a potty seat? :)

We had a good time visiting with grandparents, great grandparents, cousins and an aunt tonight (we missed you tonight Keith!). Here are a couple of shots that were taken at Grandpa and Grandma Bennett's house:

Isn't this a cute little outfit? We had to borrow pajamas from grandma and grandpa's because the ones we brought no longer fit!

Natalie loved rocking in the chair at Grandpa and Grandma's!

Rocking Chair Princess

Here she is sitting in her new chair!

Important News Update!

ATTENTION EVERYONE!!! Natalie Rose Clutter slept EIGHT hours last night! Although it was probably due to the fact that she only got two short naps in yesterday, it still is amazing (and such a blessing)! That meant that when I woke up at 6:00am, she was still sleeping! I had to go check on her to make sure she was okay and still breathing. It sure helps me to start my day out well-rested!

Our Princess

Here she is in her new walker - she loves it already...

...even though her feet don't touch the ground yet!

Thank you Grandpa Dave for the rocking chair for Natalie! Adam put it together today and it's so cute!

SMILE!

Natalie's Smiles:

I think her smile is so big in this one because she loves to be naked!

Another Generation!

Here is another four generation picture of my mom's side of the family. Grandma Irene and Grandpa Ed flew in yesterday from Florida so we went to see them at Aunt Kris' house last night.

Expect the Unexpected

Here's Natalie helping me with the laundry - I didn't really get that much done since she was so cute and all I could do was laugh at her!

Natalie's first swimming experience (outside of the tub)...

...and her first post-swimming experience. She didn't really care for the water temperature compared to her bath water! However, she kind of got used to it after a while. We'll try again later when the water has a chance to warm up a little bit!
Got milk?!
