4 months old

WOW!!! I can't believe my baby is already 4 months old!! We had his check-up today and he weighs 15 pounds 5 ounces (60%) and is 26.25" long (90%).  He threw a fit when the Dr. started checking his soft spot and moving his legs.  Then of course came the 2 shots!!! I have never heard him cry like that!! It was so loud!! I would calm him down and then a sec. later he would start again!! Needless to say I was sweating bullets!! I put his clothes back on him and got his diaper bag ready and then put him in the car seat and gave him a bottle. Well, that calmed him down enough that we could pay and get to the car!!  Then he cried himself to sleep on the way home! We are starting rice cereal tonight!!!!

  • loves to grab his feet
  • loves to squeal (we were at McAlisters earlier this week and he put on a show) Ha!!
  • loves his paci
  • loves to suck and bite on his hands
  • smiles and laughs a lot 
  • loves to reach and grab things
  • can sit with support
  • can stand with support
  • trying to roll over
  • thinks it's funny when I change his clothes
  • loves his mommy!!!!

Isn't he just adorable?!?!




I got him a new floor gym today! He has one but it doesn't have all the bells and whistles that this one has!!!!

Last weekend we went to Babies R Us and got this johnny jump up!!
He loves his new toys!!!

LV Obsessed!!!!!

Ok, so I am totally obsessed with Louis Vuitton purses!! I got these images off of a knockoff website!! The knockoffs are selling for almost $300!! Why not just save a little more and buy the real thing!!! I am not a fan of fake purses!! If I can't buy the real thing then I don't want it!! I currently have a small mini looping purse (discontinued) which I probably haven't used in over a year!!

/mo/media/product/M51147/m51147.jpg
 I have the horizontal batignolles which I use Everyday!
I also have a white multicolor international wallet(discontinued and I couldn't find a pic of the white one)
 
and a key and change holder!!
 I always want a new Louis so my recent thing is selling stuff on ebay to get a new one, specifically the Galleria GM.  
Well, I have decided not get a new Louis (not now maybe later) instead I am  going to purchase a DSLR camera! I have been researching and I think I am going to go with a Canon EOS 50D SLR.  I will get a lot of use out of it and I love taking pics (especially of Brady)!!!! 

canon 50d
Well I have already sold over $300 worth of stuff and have a lot listed!! My goal is to have the camera by the time we go to the beach in August!! I love to buy things on ebay too!! I have gotten so many cute outfits for Brady and a lot of cute stuff for me too!!

Blog Addict

Yes, I do admit this!! I love to blog and to read blogs!! Some are just your general about life blogs, others are funny and well some just touch my heart. Sometimes me and Kasey (my SIL) will call each other asking if we have read so and so's post or when we find a new blog that is interesting will let each other know!! Sometimes we call each other crying or laughing!! Our husbands think we are crazy!! Well, we just might be!! I found this quiz today and of course I had to take it, so here are the results!!

Show us where you live friday-nurseries/children's rooms

Kelly's Korner is hosting Show Us Where You Live Friday and today is Nurseries/children's rooms!! 
I love Brady's nursery!! I picked out the fabric for the bedding and had it made. I love the stripes, geometric squares and the colors. This is where we hang out and play almost all day everyday!!! 




I am not an artistic person whatsoever so when I came up with the idea to paint these canvases I wasn't sure how they would come out!! I think they turned out pretty cute though!!

Brady's cute monogramed pillow and little dog!!
Brady's dresser that my mom and I stained!

Can you believe I made the lamp shade!!! I am not crafty either!! 
Brady loves his Dr. Seuss books!! The cute teal frame came from Canton!!


We also stained the changing table!! I didn't make the tile board!! I got that at Canton!!

The most comfortable rocker/recliner ever!!! I went to Lazy-boy and sat in every rocker they had and this is what we ended up with!! 

Love this cross!! Got it at Canton!! Yes, I am definitely a Canton Junkie!!

And this is the Cute boy that this room belongs too!!
Oh, I was out of town last week and didn't get to post my dining room!! So here is a quick snapshot of it!! 

Hope you enjoyed!! Thanks for visiting!!

WILD HAIR

Brady has got some WILD HAIR!! He has 2 crowns so on both sides it grows towards the middle, so I think there will be many mohawks in the future!! In the back he has rubbed off some of his hair and kinda looks like he is starting a mullet and on the sides he doesn't have much but what little he does have is very very blonde!! Here are some pics of during and after his bath this afternoon!!

Memorial Day Weekend in Mississippi

We had a very busy Memorial Day weekend in Mississippi!! We ended up waiting until Thursday morning to leave because Wilse and I were to tired Wednesday night to drive!! We got to West Point early afternoon and started getting ready for Connor's (our oldest nephew) kindergarten graduation. They had a program that included all of the other classes, so Cael was also in the program!  Cael was putting on a show!! He was making these weird faces and just couldn't stand still!! I wouldn't expect anything less from Cael though!! He is a character!! The program was way cute and we really enjoyed it!! Friday me and Brady went to Columbus and met my best friend for lunch and then we did a little shopping!! Friday night me, my mom and Brady went to Oak Hill's Graduation to see my best friend's brother graduate!! This is also where I graduated! I am so proud of Will!! He was the Valedictorian, Star Student and Hall of Fame!! He made a 33 on his ACT and received a full scholarship to MSU!! Saturday we went to Macon to visit Wilse's grandmother and his mom's side of the family and then that night we went to church and attempted to go out to eat with Wilse's family but Brady was not a happy camper so we ended up leaving and they brought us back something!! Sunday my brother and his family were staying the weekend with my parents also so we had a great time seeing all of our nephews!! Sunday night my parents had a shrimp boil and invited family and friends over! We had a blast!! Monday Wilse's parents had a BBQ at their camp house with family and friends!! Again we had a blast!! We ended up heading home Monday night!! So we got home pretty late last night!! We had a wonderful weekend with all of our family and friends!! Can't wait until next time!! I wish I would have taken more pics but here are a few I did take!!

Brady and his cousin Lily!! She is almost exactly one month older than him!
Brady and Lily trying to hold hands!! How sweet!!
