One Wild Night

After the recall, Laralee found a new use for her Bumbo.

I don't feel so good mommy...

That milk must have been sour...

Thanks for standing by me mommy...

Whew, I'm glad that's over. I feel much better!

Girl or Boy- you decide.

So... I'm tired of people saying what a handsome boy we have. Just because she's bald or sometimes doesn't wear pink they assume she's a he. (well you know what assuming does) My friend Laura in Charleston gave me this idea and I added to it. This way she has one for every outfit and if people still think she's a boy then that's pretty scary. She looks so cute with it on her head! I'll post a picture later.

She's getting so BIG

I didn't know I could love someone as much as I LOVE my Laralee. She is so much fun right now. She crawls everywhere and pulls herself up on anything, even if it won't hold her (she falls and gets up to try it again). She has also started saying MUM when she's tired, I don't know if it has any connection to me or just that she's ready for bed. It's really cute though. I can't wait for my family out west to see her. We are so excited for our trip next week!!

Those two little teeth are great, but as you can see nothing up top yet.

She is getting brave enough to only use one hand to hold herself up. What a dare devil.

HAVE YOU SEEN ME??

MISSING

2 Infant socks
Last seen: Laundry Room
Age: Brand New

Okay I love Laralee's little socks but hate washing them. They end up everywhere, mostly in Ryan's shirts. The cute little pink Dancer one she only wore once and then poof-MIA between our bedroom and the laundry. The other was lost at Matt's house, their girls have looked and I have too. Nothing! So I have decided to take matters into my own hands. My MIL bought a mesh laundry bag from the dollar store that I am going to convert into a little washing bag for her socks, so no more lost partners. Who knew that having a baby would open my eyes to so many cool inventions.

Traveling alone with a 7 mos. old...eek!

Laralee and I are headed out west to see family for a couple weeks. We will be on several flights and I will be on my own, no husband to help. If any of you experienced mothers have advice on how to make it an easier trip I'm all ears. Please help this new mommy!!
