| Last night in NC b4 moving to KY with the boys & truck full~ |
Our lil darling will be 17 weeks tomorrow! (well according to her due date & the doc she's only 10 wks) The doctor told us to go by her original May 27th due date until after she turns 1. She has her 4 mo. appt this Friday with shots :( Daddy is coming this time since Mommy had an emotional moment at her 2 mo.shots. My husband has been Such a great Dad!!
I knew with all his nephews and niece he had a lot of practice, but he still surprises me with his Daddy moments :) I've had numerous people comment on how great he is with our daughter... & I'm so thankful! All summer Blakely has been in Daddy Daycare 2 days a week while he works from home. He has been fantastic & B is so in love with him!! Everyone tells him he can't deny her because they look sooo much alike~ I guess Mommy had nothing to do with it ;)
Since my last post we had Family photos made at 11 wks. 1st attempt B cried the WHOLE time... then right when we left we went out to eat and she fell right to sleep... of Course! So we came back a week later for attempt #2 and she was Much Better!! (She runs the show) She has already created MANY memories for her Dad and I. I just wish the Hospital Photography didn't mess up her newborn photos b/c we weren't able to get professional ones done until end of June! :-/
At least we have many home photos that we've taken ;)
Now at almost 4 months Blakely is so much more alert and full of smiles :)) JP and I just sit for hours trying to get her to show her pretty grin. And each and every one warms our hearts <3 She has also created her 'own B language' with "oohs" & "awws". We ask questions and she answers! She also celebrated her 1st Holiday: 4th of July with Fireworks in Versailles! (well she slept through the fireworks..lol) We have also recently started a Savings Acct for our daughter for that "College Savings Plan" that is going to come sooner than we want :( We both have a true obsession with this baby girl. She is definitely our whole world. |
| July 4th |
As well as working to be the best parents we can be, we have
also tried to have Mommy and Daddy QT. My mom and sister watched B
so we could take a day trip to Kings Island!
We had a blast and were so thankful they could watch her!
She LOVES all of her family & I'm sure she will miss her time with MiMi (my mom)
when she goes back to NC in 2 wks. On a side note... I have compared B's 1 & 2 month pics with her 3 month and she doesn't even look like the same baby! She has gotten so much bigger :) This Friday she will take her 4 month pics and she has even changed since July! People always say 'cherish every moment with your children b/c it goes by so quick'... I am starting to know the feeling! I am also starting to understand the craziness Moms talk about on a daily basis: Spitting up, dirty diapers (BM's), tummy time, and any other odd disgusting thing their baby does! I've found myself right in the mix!! I have also discovered 'Baby First' channel with Early Bloomers shows. I stumbled upon this and caught Blakely in awe gazing at the television! Never even thought she could be interested in TV this young! It's hours of colors, shapes, animals, numbers, Spanish and much more! We <3 it!
Think she is starting to get use to a camera Always being in her face. Here are some pics we took when visiting my Husbands grandparents. Those spontaneous photoshoots always turn out the best :) 7/28/12 15 wks 4 days. Until next time XO
