Raggedy Ann and Brantley

Here is my sweet little Brantley with my Raggedy Ann doll when I was growing up. My mom has a picture of me next to it and when I get my hands on it I will be sure to post it on here.  Can you believe my little baby will be 6 months old on the 31st?!?! My oh my how time goes by!!!

25 Weeks old today!

Our little Punkin is 25 weeks old today!

A Couple of Firsts! (and a few other things, too!)

Brantley has such a personality and it is really starting to come out as we explore new things! Eric and I love making silly faces and noises to her to see her face light up. We recently started making a new noise to her and she is trying so hard to make it herself! I promise to get it on video and posted it ASAP. This morning as she woke up from her nap I could hear her on the monitor trying so hard to make the noise! Too Cute!!!

Last week we started Brantley on rice cereal and it is so much fun. She still isn't quite sure about it, but we have a good time putting her in her new high chair and watching her face get covered with rice cereal.

 

 

This Sunday B and I made a trip to Charleston for her to meet my Aunt Bettie and my cousin Jennifer for the first time.  We had a great day laughing and catching up with family. This would be where I would insert a picture of us with them, but unfortunately I forgot to take a picture, so I will have to steal one from my mom and post it later.

Last week Eric's parents came to stay with us for a few days. We spent our time laughing and playing with Brantley, eating, and shopping!

 

 

Our little girl turned 24 weeks old this past Friday! I am going to continue to take a picture of her each week up until 6 months (January 31st). After that I will take a picture of her each month until 1 year of age and then after that we will just take it each year. ( I sure do hope that I remember.)

23 weeks old!

Happy New Year!

This year Eric and I welcomed in the New Year with some of our good friends, Rob and Renae. We had a great time by eating chocolate chip cookies with ice cream, watching this crazy man shoot over water in a car, and played a new game called Quelf. Quelf is a game of random questions and actions that you must answer or perform to win the game. I went first and my card said that I had to snort each time that I laughed throughout the game. It was great fun!
            Here are Rob and Renae striking a pose for me as I have to pretend to be a photographer.

I then drew a card that told me I had to wear a bib.

Eric doing the Hula while humming a lullaby.

 

Our family spent the first Sunday afternoon of the new year by going to eat Mexican as a family.(that's right, we were able to eat Mexican for lunch after church because B was sleeping and Mexican food is really fast.) Of course B managed to wake up before we were done and she took care of some business in her diaper as well. Good thing we only live 7 minutes from the nearest Mexican restaurant. Eric and I laughed through it all! After Mexican we came home and all took a nap, then woke up to just enjoy some time together as a family.
