She had way too much fun in the pool!

Our neighbor, Chris, hangin out with Bailey while Daddy is out of town!

Hanging out after spending time in the pool with Mommy!

Bath time...in the new shower....

Crawling!

My little Bailey is everywhere! She is up on all fours, on her toes and trying to be involved in everything that is going on. She thinks she is older than she really is. The only thing she needs to do now is hold her head up when she crawls!!! She loves playing with her cousins.

Cousins

We were finally able to get a picture of the kids!!! Luckily it was raining outside and Mimi was not around. If Mimi is around she has them hanging off of each leg and not wanting to take pictures....together at least!!! This picture is for Mimi!!!

Memorial Day Weekend

I love my baby girl!!!!

Bailey had a busy Memorial Day weekend! We went to three different cook-outs and had to sport different bows at each!!! Now she not only has bows for her headbands....she has FLOWERS!!! Twelve of them to be exact!!! I can't wait for her to wear them all. What an obsession I have!!

Remodel Update....

Still trying to get things in place....not taking pictures until everything is back up on the walls and rugs are put down!!!

Yummy.....

Mmmmmmmm......

I think I might be sick now!!!

Nothing like fresh rice and flax meal!!!

6 Month Stats/New Food

Yesterday was Bailey's six month Dr. appt. She is a "little bit"! She weighed in at 16 lbs. 8 oz. and was 24 1/2" long. Her head circumference was 43cm. Dr. Mike said it was time to start introducing her to food. I thought oh how fun, but it is alot of work to a mom who can whip out her breast to feed (I know that's blunt) and never have to prepare anything. So we got everything together last night.

So today I introduced rice cereal to Bailey! At breakfast it was new and she didn't really know what to think, but during lunch she ate almost all of the bowl. This was after I had just breastfed her. She kept smiling and opening her mouth wide. What a good girl!!!! I can't wait to see if this effects her poop! Ha! It will be interesting. Maybe now she will start getting fatter. Ha...she is going to be a short, little chunker! I love it!!!!

Pictures will follow! I haven't had time lately to do anything on the computer!! Busy with remodel and going to the pool. Speaking of the pool....that is another blog for later! I officially have a water bug!!

Busy Weekend....

This weekend was quite an event! Saturday we took Bailey to the NC Zoo with the family. So much fun. We arrived at 8:30am (about an hour and a half drive) and left at 3:00pm. Bailey was a total angel. She never fussed, cried....nothing. She was taking in everything around her! It was a blast!!! The family time was great and we got to see lots of animals. The family favorite was definitely the polar bear. He really put on a show for us. He would swim up and kiss the glass where the kids faces were and shoot out of the water!!

Sunday was Mother's Day and also the same day of baby dedication. What a special day! Bobby was trying to watch Bailey so I could have some "me" time getting ready for church. Bailey wanted Mommy though. I ended up putting her in the bathroom sink while I was getting ready. She loved it. She got to play with my brush and hair ties. Her favorite was talking to herself in the mirror. Too precious!!!! Then I opened my first Mother's Day gifts. I got several charms from Bobby and Bailey for my Pandora bracelet. I was so excited!!! I love my bracelet.

What a great weekend with family and a great time to reflect on being a Mommy. I love it! I wouldn't trade it for anything else in the world!!!

5 months....

Bailey loves drinking her water from a straw.....it's the only other food/drink she gets other than breastmilk!!

It's not over....

I haven’t blogged in a week in hopes that the next time I would be blogging I would have wonderful pictures to show you of my remodel. Haha! Not so much. We still have three to four days of flooring and baseboard to be completed. Not to mention the cleaning that will need to be done after the remodel is complete. Did I mention that I don’t know what I have gotten myself into? I am done after this! Except for the natural areas outside.


I am sure all of you mommy’s realize that Sunday is Mother’s Day. This is my first official Mother’s Day. I am super excited. Bailey is also being dedicated at church. So in preparation for her dedication I had to buy her a new dress. Sooooo much fun. My purchase was made at Strasburg Children. Her dress is sky blue and matches her eyes. Don’t play…I purchased a HUGE matching blue bow for her hairband also!!!! I am very excited. What a special Mother’s Day this will be! I will post pictures Sunday of my adorable little Boobear.


I need to get out and hang out with other mommies. I have had a really hard time with this. So many of my friends have children and I don’t know why I have made it so dang difficult. Maybe the warm weather will get me out of the house. I know the pool will be lots of fun. And as soon as the remodel is done we are making plans. HOLD ME TO THIS!!!

Ok…I am done blogging today…I have laundry to do. YAY!!!
