Been Very Busy

Well, to start with I turned 4 months on the 7th of March. I am 16 lbs. 13 oz. and 26 1/2 in.
I am in the 90th percentile...One healthy girl. I don't like shots. Oh, I'm 5 months today. Where did that month go?
I went to visit Grace and Papa and Gramma J in Council Bluffs.
Grace and I are buddies.

We went with Aunt Crystal to the Children's Museum.
This is my dorky brother painted like a tiger.

Grace had a cold that week. Man can she scream.
She gave the cold to my Uncle Chris.

Papa is helping me check out this big blue thing. They say it's a balloon.
All I know is that it's shiny and floats.

Here I am Easter morning with the big brother.
Hope I didn't get boy cooties.

We took lots of pictures that morning. Gramma J thinks we are special.

Hey Gracie...don't you know you're suppose to keep your hands to yourself.
Gracie can be a bully sometimes.

We're still buddies even though she gets a little rough.

Gracie was telling me how she can get her mommy and daddy to do
whatever she wants them to do.

Papa and Jonah are doing something funny to these white things.

Auntie Crystal was helping too.

Grace says, " No pictures please...my mom already takes too many."

My brother thinks he is pretty cool...
I tried telling him he's a dork.

I thought I was done wearing this dumb thing...
where did all the warm go.

Wow...I'm out of the house!

Am I gorgeous or what...no autographs please.

Mommy finally thinks that I'm big enough for my crib.
I'm really diggin this mobile thing. Sooo much room to stretch.

I found em...I have toes...this is an amazing discovery.
This has one busy month. I have been traveling with my mom and brother.
Had lots of fun in Council Bluffs. I have been finding all sorts of new things. Plus all this playing and growing just tires a girl out.

I'm Beyond Cute


Mommy and Daddy bought me a play mat. I really like having my toys where I can reach. I can also move myself in a circle around on the mat. Watch me move.

Big brother Jonah playing video games.




I'm such a big girl. I don't like tummy time long but, I'm good at holding myself up.




Some soothing music and my mobile to watch. I like my leapfrog gym when it's time to settle down. My fingers are pretty tasty too.

Shopping with Mom







Toree and I went on our official girls only shopping trip Saturday. We went to Mitchell to do the normal restock the pantry shopping and since the boys stayed home we did some girl shopping too. We learned the essentials like: look at the clearence racks first, then check out the sales, and finally see if we look cute in it. The only thing that would have made it even better is if Aunt Crystal and cousin Grace could have been with us. We will have to do that when Mommy, Jonah, and Toree go to Council Bluffs for spring break. It was a nice warm weekend up here in the 40's and 50's. So, it was a good day to be out and Jonah was even able to play outside at home.

I'm 3-Months-Old !!!














Well, another month has gone by. Hard to believe that she has already been around for 1/4 of a year. Miss Toree has decided that she wants to sit up. So, we put together the high chair and now she can sit up. The bouncer was not good enough anymore because it sits at a slight angle and she wants to be stright up and down. We tried some rice cereal last night. She didn't quite know what to think of it. She did however enjoy talking to the spoon. She loves to talk and just like any little girl lights up and coo's when she sees her daddy. Daddy has finally stopped calling her "chubbers" and is trying out "giggles". Toree thinks it is funny when daddy calls her "giggles".

Toree and Grace were baptized on the 27th of January. Both of the girls looked beautiful in their gowns. My niece Grace wore my sister's gown. My mom made one for Toree. My baptism outfit was too small for our chunky monkey. It was a very nice day. It was great to have all the family and friends together to celebrate such a blessing. My 31st birthday was also this week. It was also my golden birthday. My sweetheart of a husband sent me 31 fire & ice and peach roses. I have never seen a bouquet so large ( and that is saying a lot because I worked in a floral shop in college). It truly was a great day to venture into my 30's.
