Wip...

I've been a busy bee planning my first ever baby bee shower! Can't wait to show you all my work.

Shoe blues

Shoe blues.

If you had your other shoe on,
I'd let you walk around.
But you don't, you don't.
So I won't put you down....

Fiesty little one didn't want to put her new shoes on. It was her first time really wearing shoes at 10 months old.

As she slept...

I crocheted three scarves for my mom and sisters for Christmas. :)

Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!

4 months cuter

q: how are you today?

a: you are cute.

4 months cuter...

• you enjoy looking at your hands


• you hold your feet


• you roll from your tummy to your back almost immediately avoiding tummy time


• you squeal


• you'll hold on to papa's thumb and pinkie when he waves them in front of you


• you know where i am and will turn to the correct side while laying


• your nai nai says she loves you as much as she loves papa


• you can scratch your own little head


• you look all over the room


• you seem so curious


• you babble a lot with your fingers in your mouth


• you communicate differently: crying, talking and squealing when tired. shaking, eyes a wide and complaining when hungry.
• your neck is stronger
• when you hold both feet, it's fun to hold you cause you are a little bundle.

my love for you increases with every day. i'm excited to see you grow and learn.
