Woods

 

Meet Woods, Little Ones favorite toy. Every morning I wake up to her talking to him. when i come in to pick her up she grabs him and holds him so tight. She refuses to let him go as i change her diaper and change her clothes. She holds his ears and then bites his nose.

Today she had to take him to breakfast with her. I had to brib her with food before she let me take him.  

Its a good thing hes washable. 

Happy First Birthday!

Memorial day

Today we fly an American flag in our yard to honor American soldiers who died while in the military service. We also honor our own family members who have served and continue to serve our country. Thank you for all you've done.

Just a few picture from this last month. Ella is now 9 months and we are having a lot of fun with her.
*She has learned how to climb up the back of the couch
*She loves hanging out with her daddy when he get home from work
*She loves her dog and can't get enough of picking on him.
*She likes to climb anything she can, even the dog
*She got her second tooth last night! we are very excited about that.
*She likes to follow me around the house, and stop at every nightlight to pull it out of the socket.
*She likes playing peek-a-boo with her blanket when I lay her down for a nap.

Cookies and a tooth

Yesterday and today I've been putting these beauties together. I tried 2 different sugar cookie recipes trying to see which one would spread the least, they both sucked, but they tasted good. But I'm still on the hunt for a good tasting recipe that doesn't spread. Also they were suppose to be 15 inches and not 12, but that's okay. Next time will be better.

And yesterday LittleOne got her first tooth! I was way excited, she woke up at 1am and wouldn't eat she just wanted to still on my lap, then she put my finger in her mouth. I'd like to think that she woke up just to show me. picture to come when i can pin her down and get one.

While Curtis is away...

I find that I would not survive being a single mom. Curtis has been gone for only 2 days and i find myself struggling. He is such a big help when hes home, taking care of Little One while i'm cooking dinner, taking the dog out, locking up the house at night, and all the little things in between. It makes me very grateful that i have him.

Yesterday

El helped me with the laundry, well she just mostly drooled all over it but we had fun playing peek-a-boo with the sheets. 

 And then Curt came home...

she loves playing with her daddy.

Then last night as a lay in bed trying to sleep listening to Curt snore I start to hear nosies from the baby monitor, yep El was snoring too! around 3am a wake-up to the dog snoring. true story, i find it funny, but thats just me.
