For LJ's Grandma Bird

So this post is for Grandma Bird because she has been wanting to see a picture of the adorable smile we keep talking about, but it has been hard to capture because I either don't have my camera, or when I go to take the picture she just blankly stares at the camera like, what is that thing mom? But she ALWAYS gives daddy big smiles when he comes home so I tried to capture a couple then. Even then though the camera would go off one split second too late so you get the end of the smile, but non the less, here is a glimpse.:)




This last one is here because I had to show off her cute outfit. Let me just say that I LOVE the store Once Upon a Child! I got these jeans for like 3 bucks and they are just adorable! I had them on her for 3 days strait, today made 4, but lets just say the blow out she managed to do this morning was definite cause for a good washing for them! This is also the blank face of wonder I talked about when she sees the camera:)

Just a fun update!

I just thought I would give a little update on what has been goin on around these parts. Nothing too exciting, but we are truly enjoying life as we settle in to this new family. I absolutely LOVE being a stay at home mom and count my blessings every day that I have a wonderful husband who works so hard to allow me to do that. LJ is growing and learning so much every day and I am so glad I don't have to miss any of it! So in no particular order here are some pictures of what we have been up to in the last few weeks.

We were really excited that Michigan made it to the NCAA tournament so this is the outfit we wore to watch them play! Too bad they didn't make it as far as we would have liked, but there is always next year! Oh and we also cheered BYU on too, they definitely should have made it out of the first round:(


This is LJ visiting her new friend Jackson. Jackson is the son of a friend of ours down the street. He was born St Patty's day so LJ and him are 6 weeks apart. Jackson here is a pound bigger than LJ was when she was born, but look at her now! It is a lot of fun to have a stoller buddy to hang out with, especially for mommy!


LJ has decided that she really likes sitting up like a big girl in her bumbo!


She has also decided that Baby Einstien is REALLY cool!


She also thinks this star thing above her on the mat is very exciting to stare at, especially since it lights up and plays music!


Mommy and I read books every day and I LOVE to look at the pictures!


She is very fond of bathtime, but I took this picture to show that her eyebrows and new hair that is growing in is still very dark, looks like she might have hair like mommy! Oh and how bout that double chin she's working on!:)


This was today during our playtime together. She was having fun kicking and talking to mommy!

So sorry if this post was boring, but this is our life now...and we couldn't be more happy and blessed!
