Easter

It's already Easter...can you believe it?? I know, I know...it was early this year. Well, the Easter Bunny wasn't as scary as I thought it would be!















Of course, this is the first time my parents put me in the church nursery....that was scary for my parents...especially my mom! She just wouldn't leave....I mean it's time to let me grow my wings!!!

Talking and walking

Not to brag or anything, but I am extremely intelligent and am already talking, walking, and sleeping through the night at 6 weeks old. My daddy asks me if I'm a happy girl because I splept through the night and I respond with "I am". It's really quite remarkable if I might say so myself!



So what's on my schedule today?? Let's go people!!




















And here I am talking to my best friend the ceiling fan. Really I'm telling myself exactly how that thing works..... and that I'm pretty sure I can already take the fan apart and put it back together...as well as figure out all the electrical wiring. Of course, all that thinking makes me a little nauseas.

Visitors during my first month

I have to mention how incredicably popular and busy I have become during my first month of life. I have had lots of visitors.....relatives from all over the country have come to see how cute I am (okay...maybe not from all over the country....but Florida's pretty dang far)!!!

Grandpa and Brenda














Papa and Mimi














And of course my Texas relatives...Mimi and Papaw















and my great Aunt Melissa.















Here I am with my Aunt Kori (also known as Aunt Bou because everyone says she likes to "bogart the baby"). But wow...I see where I get my reddish hair and my incredible good looks!















Okay....now this is embarrassing....what kind of parents would video tape their child taking a poopy and post it on the internet??

First week at my crib!!

Well, I've spent 2 nights at the hospital and now it's time for mommy and daddy to pack up and take me home. I must say I am quite frightened since they keep mentioning that they have no idea what they're doing, but I guess I'll just have to trust them to take good care of me!!






























Thankfully Texas Mimi stayed with my parents for the first week to help out. Surely she knows what she's doing since she had 4 kiddos herself.




And now it's time to sleep in my pack-n-play for the first time!

My hospital stay....

So I decide to give my mom a break thinking I'm being considerate. I don't start giving her contractions until the Super Bowl half time show (because who REALLY watches that), I let her and daddy watch the whole game...and I finally show up after the game is over. And what do they do in return?? They hand me over to the nurse who gives me my (very aggressive and very cold) first bath!!! It was mean...and I let and them know that I didn't appreciate it!



Well, I must say that I was very exhausted after this ordeal...















But it was well worth it, because I finally met my parents!!





























I also met some of my grandparents that were able to make it to the hospital in Texas!!












































Look how strong and alert I am...and I'm only 1 day old!!!!

Here I am world!!!

Well, I figure I've stayed in my mommy's belly long enough. All I hear are complaints....about how I'm a week and a half late, how swollen her feet are, how her hips hurt, she has heartburn all the time, and she can't sleep. Then I start thinking to myself...she hasn't even given birth to me yet so she has NO idea what pain is!!! I of course make plans of my own (I get my stubborn side from my dad...so I'm told) I finally decide to Grace the world with my presence on Super Bowl Sunday...the day before my mommy's doctor was going to induce her.
