The Many Adventures of Paisley

Wow. Phew. FINALLY. Back into the blogging world. Oh, how much I have missed writing out my feelings and thoughts. I've got so much to write about, I'm not quite sure where to start.

I think I'll start with the most important. My beautiful baby girl. My gosh, I can't believe how fast she's growing. Just a few mile stones.

1. In her own crib, in her own room. Yes, she has just barely left her bassinet. With all of our traveling, it was just so handy to take along. She made the change so easily. I think it was much harder on me, than on her.


2. She is pretty much sleeping through the night.

3. She is on solids. It's such a blast feeding her and I'm so happy that she is still breast feeding well.

4. I LOVE the change of color in her poop. How silly is that? Why is it so exciting to see it change from runny, mustard yellow to thick pumpkin orange or bean green?

5. She is sitting up! She has always loved to be up, does not like her tummy very well.

6. SHE LOVES HORSES. Oh my goodness, she went crazy when my dad took her on a horse ride. She would cheese it from ear to ear and giggle every time the horse turned it's head.

7. It's raspberry time. She blows on EVERYTHING.

8. She can fit her entire fist in her mouth!

9. She loves her Dax. She laughs and laughs whenever we throw the ball to Dax. She grins every time he walks in the room.

10. She's still so stinkin small. She only weighs 14 lbs. Though her weight is small, she has jumped 30% in height since her last appt.

These are just a few of the things that have been going on with Paisley. To tell you the truth, I think she's ready for a brother or sister!

I keep asking myself how I have lucked out. Paisley still continues to have the most content, relaxed and easy going personality. She is such a joy and I adore the interaction Her and Bill have. She loves him so much and He is wrapped around her little finger.

I know Mother's day has come and gone but very quickly I just have to say how grateful I am to be a mother. Paisley and I just spent this day by ourselves and it really was an emotional day for me. It seems like it took forever for me to get to this point. Being a Mom on Mother's Day... Best feeling ever! If anything, this day made me realize how blessed I am to have a wonderful Mother and Mother in Law.

Quick Update Before Going Private......

I'm still going private... My computer crashed right after I made that last post and we just barely got a new computer.

Anyhow, I will be doing a much better update next week.

Life is perfect. I love my husband. I love my Paisley. I love my life. Why am I so blessed?

Paisley just turned 6 months this week. I can't believe how lucky I have been. She is so precious and sweet and just so lovable.

Bill and Paisley are my world. I would not have it any other way.
