A Jovie first...

So...last night was monumental...it was Jovie's first time sleeping through the night...and by that I mean she fell asleep at 8:30pm and didn't wake up until 5am!! And it's ONLY taken 8 weeks!! Sheesh. (I hope you're sensing my sarcasm)
Maybe it had something to do with the cute vintage dress her great-grandma got for her that she wore to church...

She is getting cuter and cuter by the day...I just love her expressions (both sweet and cranky)! It just makes me excited to see more of her personality! Yes- she still has the "concerned" face- as long as we are her parents, I'm sure that face will never go away! ;)

It's been pretty much impossible to capture her smile on film- yes, she's been doing it since about 4 weeks old...but as quick as it comes, it leaves even faster! I never have my camera at those moments!

Jovie has also been quite enamored by her fists...evidentally they taste fabulous, because every moment her binkie isn't in, I catch her sucking away on it! How can I not laugh when she gets all cross-eyed from looking at it?

btw - i left my pita jungle leftovers in your fridge. i'm not happy about that. but if it isn't totally nasty, you can totally have it. and if it is totally nasty, sorry i didn't properly dispose of it while i was there.

thanks again for letting me hang.
