Pretty in Blue




Isn't she beautiful in Blue!!!! She's such a girlie girl sometimes. These were taken on Friday and she was so adorable. I would hold the camera up to take her picture and then I'd count to 3 and she's look right at me until I got to 3 and then "SMILE"! So cute!!!!

Well, I am again needing some advice. We are back to not sleeping through the nights. It all started on Friday night when she was up until after 11:30 pm all because she had at the most a 20 minute nap. It took forever to get her down that night. Then,on Saturday we had a blast! We played non stop all day and of course she had her normal 2 good naps during the day, but she only slept for 3 hours after her last bottle of the night which was at 8:00 pm and then when she woke up at 11:00 pm she was not goign to go down easy. I had to try everything to get her to go back to sleep. It was after 1 when she did go back down. Then last night (Sunday Night) well, this morning, @ 1:00 she was up again. HELP ME! I can't continue this way. Does anyone have any suggestions???? As a working single mom, I can't stay up every night with her. I understand that sometimes she will get a tummy ache or gas, but it's now becoming a trend.

I hope everyone is doing well out there. I wish ya'll a great week and hopefully some sleep for me. Hugs and Kisses to all!!

7 1/2 months old




I can't believe my Makenna is already 7 1/2 months old. She's really just growing way too fast. She's crawling around like crazy, I think she even gets a little faster each day. And starting this past week she's pulling up on things. I think I need her to slow done a bit, but it's also so much fun to watch her grow and learn all this new things.

Makenna now weighs in at about 16 pounds and she's 26'' long. She's short I know, but she gets that from me. She's a little chatterbox as well. Somedays we get home in the evenings and she'll look right at you and jsut jibber on about who knows and it's just so precious. I just wish I knew what she was saying! We do have new pictures to show so I'll get those on as soon as I can. But as we all know, with little ones, that could mean another week or so. Okay, I promise to get them up this week.

Makenna and I hope all is well with everyone out there. We love you all and think of you often. Drop us a line soon!

XOXOXOXOX
Nicole and Makenna
