Week 48

Happy Memorial Day!! What's new with me this week?  Well, I started standing.  I can go from sitting standing without holding on to anything.  I just pop right up!  Mommy says that means I'm close to walking.  What else?  Maybe for a change I'll tell you about the things that I'm not quite doing yet.  I'm not walking (yet), and I still have ZERO teeth.  I have lots of "words" but none of them mean anything yet.  Not even Momma or Dadda. I just like the way they sound.  Mommy thinks many of those things may change in the next month before my Birthday....we'll see!!

This weeks fabric came from Aunt Laura and Uncle Mike.  Mommy picked it for this week because she thought it looked a little like palm trees and this is the first week that it's really started to feel like summer.  I get to wear summer clothes all the time now and they are SO nice!!  Mommy says this summer I can go in the pool.  I can't wait!

Week 47

We're just ticking off the weeks, getting closer and closer to my FIRST Birthday.  Mommy said the invitations for my party should be here tomorrow.  I can't wait to see what she did with them.  And, how cool is that?  I get to have a party all about me!  And, eat cake?!?  I can't wait!

This week's fabric came from my cousin Nora.  She's the sweetest...she picked out this owl fabric because she thought it was cute and because she thought Mommy and I would like it.  She couldn't have been more correct!  Someone must have told her that Mommy loves owls...they are all over my room, so She's super excited to include this fabric in my quilt.  I love all the bright fun colors too!

Week 46

Hi guys...can you believe that we're rounding the corner on a year of these weekly pictures!?!  Only 6 more weeks left.  Mommy's been digging deep into the fabric basket to make sure that we get to all of the sweet people who gifted fabric for my quilt.  This week's came from my second cousin Nathaniel.  He wrote the sweetest little note that said " I chose this because I like sports and maybe the baby will too".  Well, I'm here to say that I already love sports.  One of my favorite games is rolling the ball back and forth with my sister.  She loves to play ball with me and I just laugh and laugh when Mommy helps me push it back.  We bought a soccer ball this weekend and I can't wait until I'm walking and can learn how to kick just like my big sister!

After one REALLY cold weekend, Mommy said it's finally going to start getting warmer and we can play outside more.  I think she said we're going to do some landscaping this weekend...not sure what that is...but I think it'll include me crawling in the grass and probably eating dirt...my favorite :)

Week 45

Hey guys - a little late this week, but we got the picture last weekend (like we always do).  Mom's just been really busy with work and didn't have time to get the post up on Monday like she normally does.  Like my fabric for this week?  It came from a really close family friend named Rhonda.  She is Parker and Reese's grandma and Mommy spent a LOT of time at her house playing with Nichole when she was little.  Kinda like how I play with Parker and Reese now.

Mommy picked this fabric this week because it's starting to feel more and more like summer around here these days.  There's been lots of rain, which is making all the flowers come out, but it's getting warmer now so we're starting to play outside more and more.  Someday I'll be able to ride on a big girl bike these these.  I can't wait.

Week 44

Well guys, Momma picked this fabric for this week because it looks springy and warm...and we all had hopes that that was exactly what the weather would be like this past weekend.  We were sadly disappointed!!  The warm glow in this picture comes from the lamp Mom needed to turn on to get enough light in the room to grab picture for the week.  Instead of being warm and sunny, it was cold and wet!  It felt like winter and while I'm sure winter will be more fun for me next year when I can go out and play in the snow, I'm over it right now.  I want sun and sand and warm weather.  Not cold and rain!

No notable first for me this week, I had TONS for last week and I just needed to take a few days off to let my brain absorb all that I was learning.  That happens to you too, right?
