Time Flies When You're having Fun

I can't believe Edyee is 7 months old already! She has started Army crawling now so long gone are the days of leaving her to play in one spot on the floor while I quickly rotated laundry or sent an email. I think we'll be gate shopping this weekend to block the stairs. Her favorite thing is to chase after the dogs. Boy oh boy does she think the dogs are hilarious, thay always make her giggle and squeel!

My 6 Month old Little Person

I can't beleive it's been 6 months since this lil' gal was born. She is SUCH a little girl too. She giggles and squeels all the time, she makes me giddy with excitement just looking at the dogs or out the window, we sure our re-discovering the world from a whole new view point. Thank God this little blessing is in our lives every day.

Speaking of little person I have to share my absolute excitement (I'm a little late on the news) about a local Amendment on the ballot here in Colorado. It's Amendment 48 and a YES vote will make sure that the Colorado state constitution is amended to include pre-born from the moment of fertilization as having their "personhood" clearly established, so that they may enjoy equal protection under the law. Yeah, this is so huge and wonderful I'm simply giddy!

Ok enough politics I just had to get that off my chest, I hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the crisp (well 80 degrees here) Fall air.

Cheers. m

A month later and ugly penmanship

I'm obviously a blogging slacker as I am here with 4 month old pictures of Edyee now to post. We have been busy cutting 2 teeth already. I'm trying my hand at a little bit of scrapbooking, I have no clue what I'm doing but I need a creative outlet as I haven't sewn anything in well, 4 months to be exact, and I'd like the lil' gal to have some sweet photo albums of her childhood too. I've only completed one page so far and I'd say it turned out ok, but my biggest complaint is how not pretty my handwriting is. I wish I had girly pretty handwriting like some that I know ( Carole, Wannabe, Jessica) you ladies have the prettiest penmanship, can I take a class or something?

I've posted some tunes over on the side bar that the little lady and I have been listening too, I'm craving more Mel Torme but Playlist.com doesn't have a great selection, that I've found anyway, of his tunes. Remember the show Night Court? The judge Harry had a picture up in his office of Mel Torme, I think that's how I learned about him. Weird huh?

3 Months Old

Hi all! I can't believe Edyee is already 3 months old. It feels like she has always been here, hard to believe she was still in my belly a little more than 3 months ago.

Shs has discovered how fun her hands can be and enjoys sucking them, especially during the night. I'm all for "self soothing" and really don't mind that she seems to reject the Pacifier.

She has also found her voice and loves to "chat" to the ceiling fan and most of the time on her changing table. She is also rolling now over onto her side, she especially loves to do this when I'm trying to put her diaper on! ;)

Hope you are all doing well! I'll post some pics of the doggies soon too (they LOVE Edyee and have taken to sleeping in her room sometimes) people might start to wonder as to the name of my Blog and all!!
Cheers!

Happy Baby!

Someone has discovered they have a voice, a very sweet girly voice.

That even giggles now.

And coo's and blows bubbles.

And melts Mommy's and Daddy's hearts.

Happy Mother's Day

Us girls were playing dress up with some goodies made by the lovely and talented Amanda! Thank you Amanda!

All is well here in new Mommy land, we're starting to get on a bit of a schedule now... i think. I can't beleive she is 8 weeks old today.

I want to wish all you Mommies a happy Mother's Day, boy do you deserve it!! I have such a humble and admiring respect as a rookie for all Moms, it truly is the most selfless, difficult and important job you can do.

Have a wonderful weekend and a very Happy Mother's Day Ladies!!

Oh Baby!

Hi. Sleep? Who needs it when you can spend every waking minute with a cutie like this!! ;)

Mom, Dad and baby are adjusting to our new world. Thanks to all of you who have sent us the sweetest well wishes and girlie goodies, you are all too kind. I will send you each a note when Edyee decides to give me a few moments to do so. So far I think being a parent feels like an elite club membership that you don't "get" till you're already a member.

Here's my current To Do List:

Nurse

Diaper

Kiss & Coo

Nurse

Cuddle

Sleep, a little
Repeat

And I'm learning to Love it.

Hope you're all doing well!
