Week 37

This week has been a fun week, the weather has been pretty enough to play outside! You've become a brave little girl, you will stand with no hand for a few seconds, this means walking will come soon...I'm so nervous! You've already mastered opening up cabinets so Daddy has got to make it a priority to put the safety locks on them! You are such a little ham! Some of your favorite times are when Daddy rough houses with you, it's funny b/c then if you break out a book you are as calm as can be! Such a little stinker! When your upset or crying you will say mama...but you look like a little old lady with no teeth and you are popping your mouth when doing it...idk if that makes sense but I don't know how else to explain it! We have started on high five, you think it's hilarious! You have also waved and said bye bye...but you've only done it a few times! You spent the night with MeMe and Grandpa, you got to ride on the tractor and for some dumb reason I didn't take a picture, I guess we will have to go recapture that!!! Here are some pictures from this week:

You crawled into your room & you were playing alone saying "Ada, Ada, Ada"!

You literally have NO FEAR! You will crawl off the edge of anything...even the bed so we have to be very careful! You are nonstop, we have our hands full but wouldn't have it any other way you are so much fun!

This was the best investment that Santa brought, you love it! I love you little mittens, at first you didn't know how to react to them..you just froze and wouldn't move your hands...it was hilarious!!

Giving Gunner kisses! <3 I can't wait to put this in the senior year book! :) You were such a bully to him so I was shocked to see this! Especially since you wont give me kisses...we are working on that though!

When we pick you up from Macey's (she lives 2 houses down) we let you drive us there and back...I think it's one of your favorite things of the day! Daddy took this picture, SHOCK I know!!! : P

I've started giving you a spoon when I'm feeding you & I dip your spoon in the baby food. The smart little angel you are you put it right in your mouth! You did sling some in your hair but hey mom does that sometimes too & I'm supposed to be the pro!

Today actually is Nicki's birthday but we celebrated after her basketball game Saturday! Funny story there, Sherri asked that we go set up while she picked up the cake and Caroline took Nicki to get dressed! So Crystal had the understanding of Fillip's Cafe. So her and I get there early have the table looking all cute...30 minutes go by and we start wondering but know that its Sherri we are talking about she's late to everything! Well they call and ask where are we....oops we were supposed to be at La Casona...so poor Nicki didn't get a pretty table to be surprised about buttttt she did get a funny story to tell! Happy Birthday Nicki!

Opening gifts!

Little Miss Priss stuck her hand in the cake!

Sundays are good for napping with Daddy...

and watching the football game with mommy...

and swinging....

....swinging some more

especially swinging with Mommy!!!

Date Night <3

What do you do on a night where you don't have any plans but the Grandparents want to watch the baby??

You go to Wal Mart with your goofy husband and act like you are 16 again!

He's all mine!! :) <3

Then to our old hang out, Sonic, except now you park on the old people side!

Smile

Forget the diet you eat everything you shouldn't!!

We had a great time, those nights are much needed! We stopped by and visited our friends for a bit but were in bed by 10:30 and planned on sleeping in...yah we were up at 8:00!

Week 36

I was pregnant for 37 weeks...so I've now had you in my arms as long as I had you in my tummy...I never knew I could love someone as much as I love you! I'm so thankful that I've been blessed with such a sweet yet goofy little girl! This week has been the funnest of all, you are so adventurous & daring! You are all over the place, if I'm in one room you are not far behind me with your little Cough-Laugh, Daddy doesn't know how your little throat doesn't hurt as often as you make this noise, but it's so cute! You love to play chase,but you have no fear which scares me you were crawling around and where the floor steps down into the Texas room you fell right in and bumped your little head, you had a bruise for a few days. You love to clap, it's so cute! You will be walking soon, you're getting a little too big for your britches you just let go while standing up...really scares me! You've never really liked your walker but Aunt Sherri bought you a dinosaur and you love it you go backwards everywhere! Meme got you a swing set for Christmas and this weekend you weren't sick and it was warm enough to play on it, so Mommy went and got Karlynn and y'all had a fun time while little Gunner watched you, before we know it he will be right in there with you! Speaking of Gunner, Thursday was the first day Macey Babysat you y'all had a good day! I'm really excited for you and Gunner to grow up together, especially if we don't plan on having another kid! Josh told me that there is an album that popped up on Ella's Pandora account that was renditions by Journey, you know that as soon as I heard that I downloaded it and that's what you listen to when you're sleeping. Sleeping wasn't going to well but now that we have music playing & no lights on you sleep great...Saturday you slept from about 10:30-8:30 I made Daddy get up and make sure you were OK b/c that was very odd! You were fine as suspected but I was still a little nervous! : P We had a great weekend, didn't do a whole lot but those are the best weekends!!

Loving your swing set, you look so big here!

Paisley & Macey

At Ally's Basketball game....some how you managed to fall asleep through this...loud buzzers & whistles....I don't understand!

You are defiantly related to your Uncle Ryan, he had a fascination with vacuum cleaners too!

8 Months Old

I can't believe that in 4 months you will be tearing into a Birthday cake! I've already started with the preparations...well I have a theme & I know I'll be making most of the decor....what have I got myself into? It's going to be cute though & I can't wait!

Back to you being 8 months....there are so many things you are doing now like:

*Crawling all over the place
* Pulling up on everything in site & you're able to sit back down
*Finding everything on the ground....especially leaves, you have some sort of fascination with the leaves that the dogs drag in.
*Eating off of our plate, you've even tried a few meats but just little slivers
*Eating chunks of apples, cheese, pears, mum mums, and Gerber snacks all by your self
*Eating 8 oz every 4 hours as well as a fruit for breakfast, vegetable for lunch, and a "Dinner" & fruit for dinner
*Drink out of your sippy cup no problem
*You say Dada
*You have learned how to throw a fit...not sure I like it so much
*You've said Ma, Hot, and Bye Bye but not enough to say they are a part of your vocabulary
*Still totally infatuated with Bayleigh
*Love playing outside
*Sleep....not so great somethings got you waking up so frequently
*Enjoy riding in the car now that you have a DVD player
* We are having to buy new clothes b/c your 6mo are getting too small on to 9 months
*You are wearing a size 4 diaper
*You only have a paci when falling to sleep
* You love to be tickled
*You smile sooo often, I'm so thankful you are such a happy little girl
*Bath time is still a fave

You are such a little Angel! I love you to the moon & back!

Week 35- New Years & Penney Christmas

This is also week 35 & you have started making some MMMM sounds, maybe "Mama" is soon to come, I sure hope so! You also get stuck when you pull up, you've not quited figured out how to sit back down! The other day while I was cleaning you were so proud of yourself b/c you had pulled up but you just couldnt quite figure out how to sit back down so you started crying! You also go to town on your little Piano that Santa got you, I think you will enjoy music when you get older! Now that you can crawl around you are my helper when I clean, however your cleaning consists of you dragging more stuff...but at least you're trying! Your Aunt Crystal had a brave bone in her body and took all of you girls for a night, she was worn out the next day!

You were stuck....

All of the girls!

Reading your book!

We celebrated Christmas & New Years all at one time with Daddy's side of the family b/c your cousins were with their dads during Christmas. We had a great time! We started out eating, then on to gifts, and then you went to stay with Grandma while we all went out to celebrate New Years, btw this was our first year in several years to be up long enough to bring in the New Year.
