7 snuck up on me

I was at one of my favorite stores, Hobby Lobby of course, and the dear cashier offered to help me carry the five straw wreaths that I was purchasing (you will find out at a later date on why I had 5 straw wreaths - stay tuned cause it is very cute) because I had my hands full with Ladybug asleep in her carrier. Such a sweet gal she was! Anyhoo, as we were walking out, she complimented my adorable baby girl and asked how old. "I said 6 months, no I mean 7 months". I don't even know where month 6 went and now we are at 7. Do what? It flew by way too fast and just means we are that much closer to the first birthday. Yikes! I am trying my darnedest to not rush this little lady but I guess there is no stopping.

Ladybug continues to be a great baby. She goes to bed between 7:30 and 8:00, sleeps till 7:00 and wakes up a happy baby (except tonight as I am typing this, she is awake - WIDE awake for some reason. I think it might be mommie's fault with the whole trip to Hobby Lobby and all)! She is starting to enjoy her veggies and fruits but still prefers the bottle. She grabs anything and everything in reach. When she is done playing with a toy, don't try giving it back to her because when she is done - she is done and will let you know!

Still no hair but look at those two teeth that are coming in!!! I love to see those little whities when she smiles.

Has finally conquered sitting up on her own!

Ladybug has such an adorable laugh and loves to be tickled! She does this little scream when she gets excited that is too cute!

I look at this face and just smile thanking God for such a sweet blessing He has given us. A blessing and joy she definitely is!

Check'em Out!

ISNT SHE JUST ADORABLE?

A Splish Splashing good time!

When you combine a pool, food and friends, you most definitely will have a great time!

This past Saturday, we invited our closest friends, along with the kiddos, over to have a little splish splashing fun. And a fun time we had!!!

(A special message for Jason: I apologize that you didn't make it in any of the pictures, although you can be partially seen in the above picture, not sure how that happened but I will make sure you are included next time)

I tell ya, it is GREAT having a pool, but it is even BETTER when you have family and friends to share it with!

Choo Choo, Tritt is Two!

The weekend started off with a fun-filled celebration for my girlfriend's sweet little Boy, Tritt! The house was filled with Crystal and Jason's family and close friends. It was a hot dog, cake and ice cream kind of party and it was yummy!!!

Everyone gathered to watch Mr. Tritt open his gifts. Apparently it was the bubble-making push lawnmower that grabbed his attention and held it for the rest of the night. He absolutely loved that thing!

We all headed outside and enjoyed the kids (and some adults) run and play. They played ball, chased each other, and clobbered Mr. Jason a few times. All the while, Mr. Tritt was just happy as could be pushing his lawnmower around!!!

Our Lovable Pistol having a BLAST!

Our content Ladybug enjoyed watching everybody!

Isnt she absolutely adorable?

Posing with the Wonderful Mommie and a very dear friend!!!

Thanks Crystal and Jason for inviting us to share such a special time with you and your family!!!
