Grandma bought Bayley a high chair and she loves it so much!!! She is so proud to be sitting up and eating like a big girl. She even wants to feed herself!!!

one of my favorite pictures

hehe only 3 weeks old and she already knows how to pose

HS-4 Holiday party

Bayley was so good and after the party Adam took us out to our favorite Italian restaurant, Old Venice-yummy. It was a very nice date for 3 : ) There was childcare setup at the party, but Adam decided he wasn't ready for that and I have decided that I will never be ready for that. No childcare/daycare for this baby, why would we want to be without her???!!!

A new President, a new stomach, a new way to fall asleep

Welcome Mr. President Obama! I am just getting over a horrible stomach virus after about 4 days. Thank goodness my Mom, Adam and Auntie Sarah took care of Bayley and I. Bayley has fallen asleep the past 2 days in her swing rocking her baby doll to sleep, it's the cutest thing!! She can't stop trying to eat the little straps that hold her in so I put her doll on her lap to cover them up and sure enough she was asleep in seconds. She is so darn cute and so smart and so interested in everything!!! -it's a new world

Ballerina Bayley

I must be dreaming...

I have my own little girl that I can dress up in a tutu and she loved it!!!! Oh what a perfect little ballerina she is already.

Holistic health

Today I went to see my acupuncturist and Bayley came along and got a free mini session. Not acupuncture, but some craniosacral therapy. She had a slightly mishapen head at birth due to my fibroid (we think) Craniosacral therapy is a very light form of massage/manipulation done on the head/neck to free any restrictions and keep cerebral spinal fluid flowing efficiently. She was happy and smiling through her whole session. I had an amazing acupuncture session and had some cupping done for my back/neck pain. I feel so much better, it's like a miracle. I love chinese medicine.

Prettiest baby in the world!!!!

Happy 7 months Bayley!!!

I can't believe you are 7 months old today

I feel like I just wrote your 6 month old post

And I didn't think it was possible

but I love you even more, every time I look at your sweet face.

You are growing so fast right before our eyes

you are sitting up on your own

you are eating solid foods like a little piggy

sweet potatoes and apple/blueberries are your favorites

you are spitting, yelling, babbling, blowing bubbles, grabbing hair/noses/cheeks

waving your arms in the air, dancing, splashing, giving hugs (well Mom got one)

belly laughing, smiling all the time and most important...

being the sweetest, bestest, smartest, most beautiful baby I could ever ask for.

I love you with all my heart and soul Bayley

Love and kisses, Mommy
