Annelisa visits Aggieland! WHOOP!

Annelisa and I went to College Station to visit Aunt Lauren and to tour our beloved Aggieland!

Here are pictures from our time on campus!

Miss Reveille's Graves on the North End of Kyle Field

Aunt Lauren and Annelisa at E King Gil's Statue

Touring the newly remodeled MSC, this is the South hallway, very grand! 

New social/study hangout room on the west side of the MSC

New water fountains that can fill water bottles! 

New Furniture in the Flag Room

The whole Flag Room, the same as the past just new and improved!

These pictures show memorials on the North side of the MSC honoring Aggie men who died in service to our country. Each has their picture, name, class, and the medal of honor they earned.

Upstairs in the MSC looking west, so many skylights bringing in bright sunshine! 

Overlooking Rudder Fountain, this part of the MSC is totally new, it was outside when I was a student! 

Hallway on East side of MSC, to the right is Rudder Fountain Plaza 

Crazy eyes, but a good view of her cute Aggie T-shirt.

Love this wall sized portrait! It shows Military Walk at night, my absolute favorite place on campus. It greets you when you get off the elevators on the second floor.

A picture of the limestone, it goes all the up and outside! Check out all the fossils in the stone! :)

Annelisa loved the skylights! 

Love this face! 

Enjoying the windows!

Annelisa slept in her stroller for the rest of her tour...we'll have to go back to properly indoctrinate her! :)

We loved going to visit Aunt Lauren for Annelisa's 3 month birthday! It was fun to see the new and improved MSC and walk on campus again! It's hard to believe that I graduated six years ago and how much change has taken place on campus! I have a special place in my heart for Aggieland and my daughter is being indoctrinated...or brain washed...just depends on how you look at it!

Whoop! Gig'Em Aggies! 

The proudest members of the Fighten' Texas Aggie Class of 2006 and 2034!! Whoop!

Annelisa is 3 Months!

Three Months: June 22, 2012

Annelisa reached her three month birthday on June 22, 2012! Her third month with us brought many new milestones! 


Annelisa:
  • Began waking once during the night, usually between 12:30 and 3:30 AM. Her nighttime bedtime is between 7:30 and 8:15 depending on how the day has gone and her morning wake-up ranges between 7:15 and 8:15 AM. Annelisa spends about 12 hours a day in her crib for nighttime sleep, right on target! 
  • Enjoyed regular walks around the neighborhood with mom, dad, and Farley in her new jogging stroller
  • Began sitting in her Bumbo seat
  • Transitioned to nursing five times a day on average
  • Hit her three month growth spurt on June 16, 2012
