Random December pictures

JCRMA Dirty Santa party
Ginger, Nicole, Kyle, me, Katie, Christy (everyone else took off before I could a pic.)
It got kinda ugly....but we're all still friends! ;)
Yes, Bailey is teething...she's drooling all the time now.

Max on Thanksgiving morning. He had the worst case of bed head which was too cute!

Bailey getting ready for her bath. She LOVES getting naked!!!

Eating the flower on her exersaucer is her favorite thing to do!

Drying off after her bath.

Mom, this is private!

Daddy feeding Bailey his banana split sucker...she only got a few licks! :)

First time eating baby food. She ate squash and it went better than expected!

Yum, this isn't so bad...especially with mommy making all these funny noises to entertain me!


Busted! She loves going after Tito's nasty toys!

Got it! But, only for a second until mommy took it away.

I love my baby girl!!! I promise she does smile...she just hates the camera I think.

December has greeted Bailey with lots of milestones! She is now eating babyfood and scooting around everywhere! If I take my eyes off of her for a second, she's gone! At her 6 month appointment she weighed 14.7 pounds. She got 5 shots and one oral vaccine, which was so not fun! Bailey and I were in Paducah the first week of December and we'll go back for the week of Christmas. She loves her Grandaddy and Mimi...especially her Grandaddy though. He wags her around everywhere!!! Michael's been on call every fourth night, so Bailey and I have had lots of alone time. We look forward to January where he has a little less hectic schedule.

6 Month Pictures










Today I took Bailey to Sears to get her pictures taken. Instead of ranting and raving I'll just say it was a rather unpleasant experience. They ran late, she was tired and hungry, and it took almost 3 hours! There was nothing I could do to get my baby to smile. :( Both mom and baby were worn out by the time this was all said and done!

Oh Baby!

Bailey, Margaret, Ellie and Anna. It was hard trying to get them all to be still and look at the same camera. All three of them, excluding Bailey, were born within a couple of weeks of each other...Anna and Ellie just four days!
Josiah and Bailey. He was a "lady's man" that day b/c he was the only boy there...and he's also a little over a year old.

Once again all the girls. I had to put Bailey on the end b/c she kept trying to roll over on everyone.

To the left-Cary and Margaret on the mat, Ashley's in the chair feeding Ellie, Josiah's just walkin around chillin', and Bailey's rolling around on the floor.


When we arrived Bailey decided she wanted to feed herself...however, it didn't really happen b/c it kept falling out of her hands.


This pic is for my mom...she bought Bailey this poodle outfit and she wanted a picture of her in it...so here's the back side and below is the front side!
Bailey and I went to our first Oh Baby! get together this past Monday morning at Laura Leigh's house. This is one of the events JCRMA does each month. She had fun playing with her four other friends: Anna, Ellie, Margaret, and Josiah. We had a great time and it was nice to hang out with other mom's that are going through the same thing! There was lots of crying, eating, pooping, and peeing needles to say!!! However, she loves her new friends!

Random pics- trip to paducah, Halloween, cousin Max

Bailey and Daddy napping
Had to take a pic of this not-so-cute hat...sorry Bailey

Aunt Jessica holding Bailey and Max and Laura...after Max's 2nd Birthday party. Laura is expecting a little girl, Caroline, on January 22. God bless her!!!


Bailey had her picture taken with Max earlier...she had to get all dressed up and wear the red shoes Mim bought her.



Me, my mom, Laura, Bailey and Tito chillin'...I had a horrible cold while I was at home.


Laura, Bailey and Max. He kept saying, "Hold it, hold it." He loves to hold Bailey!



My parents, Mimi and Granddaddy. At times Max and Bailey love them more than they loves us, their parents!



Michael, me and Bailey at the Turner's for Halloween. She didn't feel too great. :(


Ryan and Brantley chillin with Michael and Bailey on Halloween

I finally downloaded more pics...as Bailey is SCREAMING from her crib! She'll be 5 1/2 months tomorrow and I can't believe it. I'm TRYING to get her on a schedule and letting her learn how to nap in her crib. This is not easy! Anyway, we're all better now and we're looking forward to this weekend as our good friends, Chad and Ali Lewis are coming to visit us from Bowling Green, KY. We're so lucky and blessed to have such great friends and a healthy baby.

5 Months Old... and sick

Happy 5 Month Birthday to ME!
I love/hate being on my belly :)

This is the usual night time ritual. Daddy and Bailey fall asleep together.


Going for a walk


Ginger, Brantley, me, Bailey, Ashley and Ellie...hangin' out at Aunt Katie's!
I FINALLY got her letters hung...all by myself!

For some reason the jumperoo puts her to sleep. I don't think she finds it too exciting yet.


Bailey and Tito napping together. Tito fell asleep when he realized Bailey wasn't going to throw him his ball.
I can't believe Bailey is already 5 months old! She is getting to be a big girl at 12 pounds 15 ounces! Poor thing is sick right now. We have had a LONG week to say the least. In the wee hours of early Wednesday morning we took Bailey to Children's Hospital ER. She cried nonstop for 5 hours...literally screaming to the point where she made her self throw up 3 times. Michael and I were at our wits end and couldn't figure out what was wrong...so we went to the hospital. They did all kinds of things to my poor baby- poked, prodded, x-rayed, and etc. Long story short, she had an ear infection. She's now on an antibiotic and feeling a little better. Michael and I got no sleep the night we went to the ER and the night after that we had to take turns holding her because she cried every time we put her down. Thankfully, last night she slept great. All I can say is having a sick baby is THE WORST thing in the world! I hope and pray she's stays healthy...my sanity can't take much more! :)

Tito has worms...

So Emily, I took your advice and named this one for you! Today has been A DAY to say the least! First off, I am sorry I have been HORRIBLE about updating this thing. However, I have not had any time to add new pics of Miss Bailey. She has been VERY HIGH maintenance the past few weeks. Hopefully I'll add pics shortly...so stay tuned! (I'm also waiting for someone to help me with this whole blog thing to make mine more pretty and have slide shows,etc.

Anyway, so today is Saturday and Michael is on call. He won't be home until probably 1 or 2 tomorrow afternoon. We had an okay night...woke up at 4 am and didn't really go back to bed. When we did wake up I noticed Tito had something on his nose. It looked like a piece of rice. Well, I instantly knew what it was. TAPE WORMS! Ugh! Tito sleeps with us and I immediately pulled back the covers to discover that we had little worms all in our bed. How nice! I called Dr. Gaddis and he got us right into the vet. I had to throw Bailey in the car, Tito in the car, and get myself together. It's not easy taking care of a baby and a dog at the same time. When I finally got all of us in the car I noticed my gas light was on. At this point I almost threw up my hands and said, "I give up." However, I said a little prayer and God pulled me through.

We got to the vet and they had their annual yard sale! I said to myself, "Seriously, are you serious?" Everyone and their grandma was there. I had trouble parking and then I had to carry both Tito and Bailey in at the same time. The good news is that Tito got a shot that should take care of those nasty creatures and we made it home safely. I've had to wash the sheets, lint roll the bedspread and vacuum the entire house. If I knew this day would be like this, I probably would've never gotten up. However, I'm proud of myself for making it through and I was stronger today than I've ever had to be on my own...physically and emotionally.

The best part of today was getting to be with my friends Katie, Emily, Ashley and Worth...and his sister Kate. Thank goodness for friends...that's all I gotta say. We all watched the Georgia vs. LSU game at Ashley's house and got to chat and eat good food. Bailey was awesome! She was in my Baby Bjorn and loved it. She can now hold her head up so I turned her around to the front so she can see everything and she just loved it! Hopefully we'll have a nice and peaceful night with nothing too exciting. I'll try to get better at blogging!

Gotta go...baby is SCREAMING!

Little Diva is 3 Months Old!











Yesterday, being 8/4/08, we had these pictures taken at Sears. Bailey is 3 Months and 6 days old. My dear friend, Robin, went with me because this was the first time I have been out of the house with her by myself...except for a doctor appointment. I was pretty nervous, but Bailey did great! I still have no clue how the lady got her to smile! To my surprise, Michael showed up for the pictures! Bailey is doing great and is getting bigger and "better" each day. She's still "Ms. Fussy Pants" but that is getting a lot better too! (Thank the good Lord!)
