Blog makeover!!!!

OK!!  In case you didn't notice I got a blog makeover. Isn't it beautiful?  I decided it was time to change it up and decided to have someone else do it that knew what they were doing.  Stephanie at Dirt and Lace Designs did it for me.  Let me tell you she is amazing to work with.  I am pretty sure I saw every option there was and changed things around a million times. I have really big issues of letting up control.  I really wanted a blog makeover and someone to do it, but was really scared to death of the outcome.  It turned out amazing!!  Thank you so much Stephanie for dealing with me.  If you are looking for someone to do your blog she is definately your girl.  Let me know what you think!

Fun from PA

Jason's family came in a few weeks ago.  Bailey loved having the company and always someone to play with.  We went shopping and to a flea market with everyone.  I almost had Jason talked into buying Bailey a pet rabbit.  They were so cute and tiny, but decided I didn't want the mess of cleaning its cage.  I think the frog we have is a hassle enough.  Anyways, Nanny (Jasons mom), Aunty Eash, and Gam brough stuff to make cookies with.  We all know the closest to homemade cookies around here come from a package.  Bailey loves to help anyone cook, so she was right in the middle of everything.  Here are some pictures of her helping out.

She loves to stir things.

Taste test....

APPROVED!

Can you tell by the look on her face she hates for her hands to be dirty?

Great Parents

Everyone loves to celebrate a birthday!  Well at the end of March every year we get a double celebratation of birthdays.  My moms birthday is March 28th and my dads is the 31st.  I want to wish them the very best birthday ever.  When I think of the type of parent I want to be it is exactly what I saw while growing up.  They genuinely are the nicest people you will ever meet.  They will be married for 30 years at the end of the year.  They have always supported me and my sister in everything we ever wanted to do or not do.

My mom:  She is the strongest person I know.  She is a two time breast cancer survivor within the past 4 years.  She never once let it get her down and always made people think she was alright.  She is always there for us no matter what.  She would give the shirt off her back to someone if she had too. 

HAPPY 60th BIRTHDAY!!!!

My dad:  He is always the strong one in the family.  He has been through his share of medical problems too, but you would never know.  He is the one that always makes hard times seem a lot easier.  He can never sit still and always has to be doing something.  He is dying to cut the grass right now if the weather would cooperate.  He would go without just to get me and my sister what we needed.

Happy 63rd BIRTHDAY!!

They both love Bailey so much and spoil her way too much.  She adores them both.  Everytime we get her dressed to go somewhere she thinks she is going to Mamaw and Papaws.  She is now starting to cry when we leave there.

Anyways I just want to wish them a very happy birthday.  Thank you for loving me and my family and being the best example of parents I could ask for.  Thank you for everything!!

I have come to realize I dont pull my camera out much when I am around people because I am too busy socializing.  As you can tell I don't have any recent pictures of Bailey with them.  I need to work on that.  Have a great day!

What is Bailey doing?

What is Bailey doing?  This is such a good question I am glad you asked!  It took her almost 2 weeks to fully recover from that virus she had.  She wasn't really sick, but just cranky and whiny.  Everything made her mad, she always wanted to be held, and she wouldn't play at all.  It was very rough dealing with her.  The past few days has totally changed for her.  She is back to her old self and even has more of a personality.  I have been so proud of her recently by the things she is doing.

Tonight she kept saying my name and I wasn't paying attention and when I turned around she was wanting me to help take her zip up hoodie off.  I was "sorry" and I swear she mumbled to me "its ok."

We drove past Mcdonalds on our way to the store and she started laughing and saying, "I eat, I eat, I eat"  and pointed and looking in that direction.

She was looking at a book and the inside cover was blue and she looks at me while pointing to it and says "blue blue."

She can do head, shoulders, knees, toes.  She doesn't sing it, but does the motions, except shoulders.

She has a Mickey video she is obsessed with and there are hula dancers in it and she dances and does the arm motions with them while watching.

She is getting better at pointing to things in books and saying what they are.  She has known what they are for awhile when we ask her to point to them, but now points to them and says their name without being asked.

I weighed her today and she is up to 24 lbs.  She finally is starting to gain weight.  She weighed 21lbs at her 18 months checkup and was only in the 10th percentile.  I put a pair of jeans on her she has never worn and I believe they were 18 months from Old Navy.  They are still way to big around the waste but almost too short.  So she is tall, but very skinny.  Obviously, not like her Momma.
