Tea Party....

Yesterday (3/20/2011) Rylee and I had our first of I'm sure many tea parties. She has a disney princess set that her cousin Jalyn handed down to her. As I was setting it all up she just sat there watching me, then I would grab the cup to drink and she would keep grabbing the plate to put in her mouth. We actually sat and played for quite awhile!

6 months

Well little miss is 6 months. We went to the dr. today and she is just perfect. She is 16.9 pounds, 25 inches long. She is in the 25th percentile for her height so I think she may be short just like me:) she is in the 60th percentile for her weight. She of course screamed at the top of her lungs while getting her vaccines. Other than that she is just a happy baby who I can't get enough of.

Ears Pierced!!

Today my mom and I took Rylee to get her ears pierced. She did good, of course she cried but she settled down. They look adorable in her little ears. Now she will wait patiently for her dad to by her a pair of real diamonds for them :) I told him for her 1st birthday that would be a great gift for her.

Christmas and Check-up....

Well our first Christmas as a family was perfect. Rylee was very spoiled by everyone, she even received her very first 4-wheeler. (thanks to Uncle Jonathan and Aunt Heather) She is a little too small for it right now, but she doesn't mind sitting on it and chewing on the handle bars. She definitely loves her toys that make a lot of noise as well. Her recent favorite is her baby doll, she loves to talk to it and she snuggles with it as well.

We just went for Rylee's four month check and she weighed in at 14.1 pounds and grew another 2 1/4 inches!! So she is now 24 1/2 inches long. The dr. also said that she seems to be doing things that a 6mo old would be doing, especially her temper tantrum when you put her onto the table because she didn't want to be on the paper, she was all better when I put her blanket down first. She knows what she wants and she ends up getting what she wants as well. When the nurse came in to do vaccines Rylee took one look at the lady and started screaming, it then got worse when she actually had to give the shots. My poor little lady. So now starts the fun, we get to give cereal and in a week we start giving some vegetables as well. She is loving being able to stand up all the time, that is her new favorite. Forget about her just sitting on your lap or in her chair - she wants to be held and she wants to be standing....again she gets what she wants :)

4 Months.....

Well Miss Rylee will be 4 months tomorrow!!, and its taken us that long to actually finish the nursery. We finally put up everything I wanted on the walls. Now it feels complete and I love the way it all turned out. Lately Rylee wants to be held constantly, and she also likes being able to stand up while being held. She doesn't seem to be content unless is someones arms. That makes it extremely difficult to be able to get things accomplished and actually get myself ready!!! We are working on that because it isn't cute anymore. She's still as happy as can be and is giggling at everything lately especially when I sing to her. Well just a few more days until Christmas and I did just finish shopping yesterday! Now I just need to wrap, clean, and grocery shop for the breakfast I have on Christmas morning for our families. Oh ya and work everyday until Christmas Eve, somehow I end up getting it all done, I love to be under pressure I guess.

Big Moment.....

So on Sunday Rylee rolled over!! It was a very exciting moment for me, and I also was video taping, so I caught it! She does tummy time on the table and all of a sudden she rolled, on the tape it looks as if she rolls off the table but she didn't. I had a slight heart-attack and then I startled her because I was yelling and all excited. I just happened to be trying to make a video for Uncle Skip and I am so happy I was because I was able to catch it and then Adam got to see it as well. Countdown to Christmas, and I only have one person completed. Lots of shopping still to do. I am looking forward to Rylee's first Christmas and starting some traditions.

3 months!!!

Well it seems impossible, but Rylee is now 3 months! She is as cute as ever and is as happy as can be. She is super smiley and has a little giggle. She had to go to the dr. and she now weighs 12 pounds. I am now back to work and it is going just fine. It is really hard to be away from her especially my two nights a week because she is sleeping by the time I get home. She goes to sleep around 8p.m. and is up at around 7 in the morning. She is our good little sleeper. She definately is spoiled but that is okay, that is how it should be.
