The Past 8 Months . . . in a nutshell

I am officially back to the world of blogging! It has been over a year since I last wrote on our blog. There have been a lot of changes in our life since then. Let me try to recap for you...

• January: I was working like crazy and Casey was enjoying some time off before his job started.
• February: I left my job at JCPenney as a Sr. Assistant Buyer to be a full time wife/mother to Lily Grace. Casey started his first job as a CRNA at JPS Hospital in Fort Worth!
• March: Lily Grace turned 1 year old! Casey celebrated his 29th birthday!
• April: I turned 27 years old!
• May: We bought and moved into our 1st house! Yay! No more crowded apartment living!
• June: Getting ready to turn our family of 3 into a family of 4!
• July: We welcomed Olivia Joy into the world.
• August: Adjusting to life with 2 babies...

So there you have, our life in a nutshell for the past 8 months...my goal is to be posting weekly!

Welcoming Olivia Joy

Calendar of Events from June & July!

This is the first time I have posted in 2 months. I decided to just post a lot of pics of Lily! She has been growing so much!

Milestones:

1. She can smile!
2. She can roll over (but only to the LEFT).
3. She can sleep through the night!! YAY!!
4. For some reason she is so OVER her swing.
5. Will sit in the Bumbo for about 5-10minutes but then gets bored!
6. Is soooo good when we take her out in public!

This is a sentimental pic of Lily in the outfit I wore on the airplane over to America! I was about her age when I met my parents for the 1st time!

Daddy and Lily watching the Fireworks!

Our 1st 4th of July as a family of 3! The quintessential summer family photo ...

Where's Lily?!

Lily and her Meme talking & smiling - They have so much fun together!

Lily being cute celebrating her Meme's birthday. Her cousin Preston was sweet enough to let her sit in his chair.

1st time in the Bumbo! Isn't it cute that look on her face? It's like why are you guys sitting over there and I am here?!

Lily 0-1 month old

Just wanted to post some cute pics of Lily in some of her little outfits! The last one is a pic of her sitting in her Easter basket while wearing her pink tutu!

My 1st Mother's Day

First of all, I have to apologize for not posting in about 2 months!!! Lily has been born and is almost 7 weeks old! I guess you could say my schedule has been a little bit busier around here since we added a baby to the equation. No longer is my time my own (and I have a feeling it won't be for at least the next 18 years!). But so far it has been so much fun being a mommy. The pictures above are from my 1st Mother's day. A little cheesy, but Lily and I wore matching outfits! I thought it was fun! In the pictures where I am holding her, you can barely see her, she blends in with my dress so well! It has been so fun to get to dress her up. She is a mini-me! I know you are all wondering if you will ever see Casey matching us girls, but I'm pretty sure he told me not to even think about it!
