Dinner out!

We went to eat last night with our friends Susan and Wyatt. Jeremy and Porter were both out of town so it was just the girls and the babies. Susan and I met in the Target parking lot (they are big AU fans and lived in B'ham awhile before coming to Tampa). We have been friends ever since and were blessed to go through our pregnancy journeys together. Wyatt is exactly 2 months older than Charlee Kate. We both forgot our cameras last night, but I took a few pictures with my phone. They were so cute together. They would copy each other, try to hold hands, and laugh and laugh. They almost just entertained each other by themselves. We had a great time with The Smiths!

I'm Back!!!

I am back to my good old days of baking and taking pictures. I guess last week was crazier than I realized, but since then I have been baking/cooking every night. My friends at school, Heather, and Kelly never know what I may drop off, LOL!!! I am also back to taking pictures every morning, especially when my little lovey is in such a good mood! My "Miss Priss" for sure!

Happy Monday from Charlee Kate

Couldn't resist this morning... My sweet girl was just laughing and smiling so it was worth the few extra minutes for pictures. There are a few from yesterday in my post from yesterday and I usually wait a couple of days to post again, but I loved these!!!

Of course if you read the post from yesterday, in some of these I am saying ABCDEFG or counting.

Cute little bootie!!!

She loves this jump-a-roo in my bathroom!!!

ABCDEFG...

That is what gets my little girl laughing. She loves to hear us sing the ABC's. What does she love at this point... she still loves to clap, she loves to see what kind of necklace I have on and chew on it, her little purse toy is a favorite, her bouncy seat is very popular, GOING, GOING, and GOING, eating puffs and wagon wheels, going on walks or runs every night, wanting to hold your fingers to pull up or stand up, and her mommy and daddy. She always pats me on the neck or the face and lights up every morning when I get her out of bed and every afternoon when I pick her up. I just love this age. She now knows to start look in things and opening them like her purse toy, that she puts things in or takes things out. I can't believe we are 7 days shy of 9 months old!!! She is eating so much better these days; however, she still loves her bottle, must be the sweet milk. I have been amazed at how quickly she has picked up the skill of "eating".

I promise to post more pictures this week. I was "slacking" some last week. Trying to finish up assessments and anything possible that I can at school. Last week was one of the busiest I have had in awhile so I am back to normal. Ready for another good week then a 3 day weekend behind it.

Here are a few pictures of Charlee Kate with Hunter. I kept him for a little while today while Kelly went a few places. Charlee Kate also loves for me to count so when she started smiling, Hunter wanted to count too for her.

He liked playing with her. Notice his band aid?? I told him I had really cool neon band aids (because we had moles removed so I wanted cute ones too) and Hunter said "don't you have any Lightening McQueen ones". I guess my neon ones weren't really that cool, LOL

My new wreath. I needed something that could go for Memorial Day and 4th of July but I just wanted it "general". I really rushed on it though so good thing it isn't a close up shot.

I will leave you with this last picture. Charlee Kate was jumping like crazy and talking in her bouncy. I went to get some things in the kitchen and was gone for literally 1 minute, maybe a minute and a half and realized I didn't hear her bouncing. When I got in there, this is what I saw. She slept a good 2.5 hours in her bed once I got her out. Bless her little heart!

Our Weekend!

Our weekend consisted of a continuation of Mothers Day. Jeremy took me out for a Mothers Fun Day on Saturday. It started with a great breakfast, I went on a long run, then we took CK and went to International and Westshore Mall. We ate a late lunch at the Cheesecake Factory and just enjoyed the day. Everyone likes to stop and talk to my little Miss Priss. Usually the "headpiece" attracts attention, then all of a sudden I looked down, and it was gone! Boy I went running back through the mall to re-trace our steps because I was determined we were NOT losing it. I found it Thank goodness! She was a trooper, but when we got home, all she wanted to do was roll all over the floor! She missed just going everywhere.

Heading out shopping at the mall

Eating at Cheesecake Factory and she thought it was so funny to grab Jeremy's hat!

These are pictures that I took for my "bow and romper lady". She needed some for her website. She is also making Charlee Kate's birthday outfit that i cannot wait to see when it is finished!!

Charlee Kate in the month of May

Here are a few pictures that my sister in law "fixed" for me. They turned out so cute! Millie can do anything when it comes to pictures!!

The last of the pictures

Such Sweet cousins!!! So many people think they are identical. We think that is hilarious because Ella looks JUST LIKE her daddy and Charlee Kate looks JUST LIKE her daddy. Look at those 2 men and see if you think they are identical, LOL. I must say they are both pretty darn cute though! We will keep them.

They loved the grass!

The sweet little blanket that Kelly and Kevin gave Charlee Kate. We love it!!!

THE MEN in the family

Sweet CK! I took these pictures for the lady that makes the rompers for her
