At 5 months you are....

What! FIVE whole months! One more month and you will be celebrating your 1/2 birthday!

• You are OFFICIALLY sleeping through the night! Mommy sometimes misses those late night nursing sessions but I do enjoy the beginning of remembering what it was like to get some sleep.
• Your favorite foods are pears, prunes, and sweet potatoes!
• You have a MILLION tickle spots and mommy and daddy know where every one of them are!
• Your eyes are mysteriously still blue.... with no sight of brown in them! When I take you grocery shopping people think you are adopted...
• You are waking up from your naps a happy girl.... Mommy and Daddy sit and listen to you talk to yourself on the monitor until your "ready" for us to come get you.
• You LOVE falling asleep on daddy at night... in fact he is better at it right now than mommy is... it makes me think back to the "super" swaddle days.... my you sure have grown
• You grab at everything in sight and your favorite things to grab are crinkly things especially paper and bags of chips ( you got this from your father)
• we are working on saying da da da da and so far we have gotten ga ga goo!
• We love to send funny pictures of mommy baby and puppy to daddy wishing him a good day at work!
• You love bedtime... But you HATE naptime!
• Your new nickname is MEATBALL... We love you Scarlett!

4 month pics

4 months

Mommy and Daddy cant believe you are 4 months old... At times we cant wait until you grow and at other times we want you to slow down. We love you and you make us so happy!



At 4 months you are:

• Rolling over!! Everytime mommy puts you down you want to roll over on that belly and talk to your toys! But minutes later you yell with frustration for us to turn you back over so you can do it again!


• It is very easy to steal a smile from you no matter what time of day.


• You have started rice cereal and love sitting at the dinner table with mommy and daddy


• Baby Einstein is your best friend at the moment. When you see his face on tv you start laughing!


• We have found tons of tickle spots on you that make you break out in the cutest giggle!


• You are still not sleeping through the night... you wake usually around three crying for mommy to come cuddle with you.... I know this will not last forever so mommy loves the middle of the night baby grabs!


• You have gone from HATINGGGGGG the car to cant get enough of them thanks to your best friend baby Enstien!!


• You are not a napper anymore.... unless you are being held the entire time! This is a habit Mommy and Daddy are trying to break and its not working at all.


• You are loving the bumbo while mommy cooks... you are almost big enough for your jumperoo and you are to big for your swing.


• You love your puppy!

Goodbye beach.... for now

Its official! Joey got his promotion and is graduating in May so that means we are leaving the sunny beach and moving to the coldest damn place EVER!! Chicago here we come! Though we hope it wont be for forever we hope to enjoy the four seasons, the city and finally being near some family! The movers are set for the 14th of January! We are going to keep the house for at least another year down here and Scarlett and Montana couldnt be more thrilled! We just need to make it through the drive....

Some Xmas Pics!

I finally got my computer back! Man that took along time! My little girl will be 3 months old in two days and I cannot believe how fast she has grown.

At her two month checkup I was excited to here where she fit in to the percentiles since I here so much from other proud mommies about where their babies fit on the charts. So after she was measured I asked the nurse to tell me the percentiles and she told me that my little girl was "OFF THE CHARTS!!" What!! Joey and I just looked at each other and laughed and said well she definately is a Wales! Her weight was 13.4 lbs and she is perfectly fitting into 6 month clothing!! What a healthy girl=)

Christmas was awesome this year as we had my entire family down to spend Christmas on the beach. My mom rented the beach house and I have to say it was pretty cool having the white sand versus the white snow in Chicago! Thanks mom for an awesome Christmas! Scarlett got her FIRST cold though but handled it pretty well. I was more of a freak about it then she was.

Enjoy the pics and Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
