July Fourth!

Hope everyone had a great Fourth of July! Brett had duty, so Kayleigh, Cristi (our neighbor), and I went to the station to watch fireworks on the boat. We had to go out early, so Brett could do security to clear an area for the barge to shoot the fireworks from. It was a beautiful day and the fireworks in Sausalito were great! We had the best view, and it was really neat to see Brett at work. He was directing all of the security including the local police boats, fire boats, and marina security! Unfortunately, I forgot to charge the battery on my camera, so this is the one picture I got. Kayleigh did great and slept in her carrier the whole time! I forgot to get a picture of her cute outfit, so I'll have to dress her up again and pretend it's July Fourth. :)

On another note, the day before we had Kayleigh's two month check-up. I can't believe she's already 2 months! Time flies! She had her first round of shots (besides the one she got at the hospital). I'm so glad Brett was there, but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. She weighs 11 lbs 3 ozs and is 24 inches long. She's in the 97th percentile for length and 66th for weight. I think she is going to get some height from her Dad. The doctor couldn't believe how great she is doing and that she is already sleeping through the night...well most nights. I can't complain though because even on a bad night she still sleeps at least 6 1/2 or 7 hours. She is also smiling all the time now! I love to see her little smiles and laughs! She is especially happy when she wakes up.

Brett is staying busy at the station, especially this weekend with everyone out on the water, but he loves his job and likes to stay busy. I have decided not to go back to work. With Brett's hours and unpredictable training schedules, working part-time just isn't going to work out. I am happy about staying home with Kayleigh and being a mommy and a wife! That certainly keeps me busy enough! I am especially looking forward to Brett's days off and exploring the city!

We hope everyone is doing well, and come visit soon! I could always use help with the chores! ;)
