Erin is Officially My Aunt!

Here is a picture from a few months ago when I went to Erin's bridal shower. She gave me a book called "King Bidgood's in the Bathtub" and it has since become one of my favorites! On January 19, 2008 Erin officially became my aunt. She and Uncle Dan tied the knot in the Big Apple. As daddy said in his best man speech, the Sweatman family is now complete. I had such a great time partying the weekend away on my first trip to New York City. On Friday night we went to a rehearsal dinner at the Harvard Club (not only is Aunt Erin pretty, but she's got brains too). I got to have some asparagus. I met so many people, including my second cousin Joey who is just a few weeks older than me. He was already crawling around and feeding himself food. I was very impressed. I also met my cousin Ryan for the first time. She is about 4 months younger than me. The wedding on Saturday was amazing and the reception was really exciting for me...I stayed up for most of it. I finally crashed on the bus ride back to the hotel.

On Sunday, we drove back to Beverly just in time for some more people to arrive. Mommy and daddy's friends from college, Lauren and Noel, were visiting from Oregon. I had so much fun with them. I enjoyed having them hold me and play with me. I hope we get to see them again soon.

I am trying really hard to crawl. I get on my stomach and raise my arms and legs in the air (mommy says it looks like I am flying) but that is about as far as I get. I also officially said "mama" this week. Mommy was really excited when she heard me say it. Daddy also heard me so there are two witnesses! Charley the dog is still my best friend. He is the only member of the family who will get an unsolicited smile or laugh from me. He just cracks me up!

Until next time,

Little O
