Guess what I met a CELEBRITY. I went to Las Vegas with my parents and we saw Tori Spelling and her husband Dean in the lobby of Mandalay Bay where we stayed. They were so nice. They were walking back from the pool and noticed this cute hate and bracelet that I had on. Tori wished that she had one for her new baby girl that she just had. It was so much fun. I was laughing and smiling at them and my parents stood there star struck and barley knew what to say. They stayed and talked to us for a long time. My dad made them laugh and said that we should go before the paparazzi caught on. It was really cool and A LOT of fun. If it hadn’t been for me they would have passed my parents like they were two boring people. I’m glad I could bring that excitement to the family.
GUESS WHAT GUYS. . . .I ROLLED OVER. It was so much fun. I laid down for some tummy time while my mom and dad were doing the laundry. My mom walked past and saw me laying on my back looking up at her. She screamed and I laughed. . .my dad ran over and they flipped me over to ACTUALLY see me do it. Sure enough I DID IT AGAIN!! They are so proud of me. I've hit my first milestone already. Then they decided it was time to move me out of the basinet and have me start to sleep in my crib. So I had a big day with ROLLING OVER and sleeping ALL NIGHT in my crib. (I'm an angel and have been sleeping through the night for over a month now) WHOOO HOOOO.
I'm 4 months and growing. I went to my 4 month checkup with Dr. Nye. I now weigh 12 pounds 7 ounces and 24 inches long. I passed everything because I'm now talking (baby talk that is), laughing, look when I hear noises, lay on my belly and push my head and chest up, and drum roll please. . . .I NOW roll over. In the next month I hear they can start to give me solid foods, which I am already looking forward to. I love to read books and people magazine with mom, and play with TOYS.
July was a fun month for us. The month started off with a surprise visit from Grandma and Papa Fagan. I then went on my first trip up to Park City where I met all of my moms work friends and was the STAR of the SHOW. We stayed at the Zermont Resort for two nights and Heather and Shane came up and joined us. It was really nice and fun to get away.
I went up to Pineview with Uncle JI, Aunt Jen and her family. We had a dutch oven dinner in the campground. It was way fun.
I went to my first parade on the 24th of July. I LOVED IT!!! I went with Great Grandma and Great Grandpa Altop, and my cousins Christa, Mckenna and Payton. The fire trucks and the cowboys shooting their guns were really cool. My mom and Grandma thought it would make me cry, but NO WAY I just watched and watched and loved it.
We had a visit from our dear friends and old neighbors Lisa, Trent and Trevor Jones. I don't know who missed them more my mom or Chloe. It was fun for me to meet my new friends. Trent and Trevor were really nice to sit in the back of the car with me while Lisa and my mom talked and talked in front of the car. They took such good car of me. Trent and Trevor played Guitar Hero and Rock Band with my parent. I guess I'll like that too when I get BIG. We miss them already.
Let me introduce my parents Brady and Melissa. . .My dad Brady is a real funny guy if you haven’t met him already. He loves music, playing golf and seeing how many toys he can buy. My mom Melissa is a real cool girl as well. She loves running, playing golf, and doing anything fun. They met and fell in love 13 years ago and then had a Scottish Wedding and are now going on 8 wonderful years of marriage where they have been able to build a wonderful home, travel the all over and have WAY too much fun with each other. This past March they were blessed with a miracle and angel sent from above Me, Xerika Rae Perkins. I joined an awesome family with 2 dogs Norman and Chloe, a cat Zeke and three ducks. She is the light of their life and has deepened their love for each other. We hope you have fun getting to know us and watching us grow. We love each and every one of you.
Love, Brady, Melissa and Xerika
