Day 3

Went to see my best friend's from high school today! Emily and I have stayed in contact over the years, but I haven't seen Megan in a while! She has a 7 week old boy, who is absolutely adorable.

Day 2

Went to the church I grew up at (where my mom pastor's). Everyone was excited to meet Annabelle! Most of them have watched me grow up since birth, or childhood, and are now enjoying watching Annabelle from afar. We went to Mexican with the Frisinger's and Hockett's. Then we went over to the Flynn's where Sean's Uncle Bob and Aunt Kitty happened to be passing through and got to meet them!

Uncle Donny's graduation

Plane ride

Mirror play

Long sleeves

tried on a bunch of her long sleeves today for Oregon trip! they're all size 6 months! :( she's getting big!

Messy craft table

this used to be our dining room table....not this week!

love that i can see her from the kitchen

Grad card

Beach

Annabelle's first time on the beach! It stormed, so we just got a few pics and then left before the sky fell out, but it was a fun day :)

Daddy's Punk Princess

Remember when we got this outfit from Sean's boss?? Finally fits her and I'll admit...it's pretty cute :)

Bunny love

Baby card

Made this card and envelope for some Army friends of ours who just moved to Ft. Lewis and had their first baby.

Scooter

Annabelle WAS facing me (her feet were pointing at me, where the camera is!). I didn't really notice how much she was scooting until she got here! lol She stayed right there, watching TV for a little while, then kept going. :)

Swimming pool

It was nearly 90 degrees today, and very sunny this aftternoon, so I decided it needed to be a pool day (by "day" I mean 45 minutes)! I filled up the kiddie pool with an inch of hose water and then added a few pitchers of hot water from the sink (another awesome thing about living in the South....faucet water gets hot very quickly!). I slooooooowly put nakey girl in the water, and after a few minutes adjusting to it, she LOVED it! I mean, I pretty much only took her out because the water was getting really cold, and there were ants crawling all over me...she would have been happy to continue playing. Anyway, yay for my little water baby. Video on youtube (if it will ever upload from my phone...)

BLUE

 Daddy and Belle matched tonight ;)

She's staring at the stripes on my shirt, even though hers are MUCH brighter than mine ;)

Tummy time with dada

Spaghetti Shrugs

Started "lifting" this week! I will eventually go to the gym on base during Sean's lunch break, and use actual weights, but since I'm so out of shape right now, I figure all my muscles need is a few pounds + body weight. Sure enough, I've been sore all week! Yay!! ;) I did try P90x last week, and that was the day I had to rush to urgent care due to chest pain. Soooooo, I think I'll hold off on that for a few more weeks.

Btw, blood work, breath test, and x-rays are all fine, so if it happens again I'll go and get a CT scan. But my guess is that Sean (Charlie, Sadie, and whoever else) were right and it's just a lung spasm/air pocket/fold or whatever. Hopefully it won't happen again, but if it does -to be safe- I'll get it checked.

Today I graduated from candles to Preggo jars and a tub of sugar for dead lifts. Next week maybe I'll use sand or water......don't hate :)

Sean came home and was laughing at me while I did shrugs with my spaghetti sauce, but he graciously took a picture of me anyway.

3 month old baby!

Such a joy to watch my daughter grow. She is such a happy girl, and has SO much personality. I love it :)

Annabelle in Amy's dress

I've been wanting to put my little baby dress on my baby, it was way too big for a while. Now it fits her perfectly. My mom said it was a given to me from Linda Bouse (an old family/church friend)...how neat! Although I wore it a much younger age ;) I was a little bigger than Annabelle.

The dress on me with my Grandma Barb (mom's mom)
