Pumpkin Patch

My sister Courtney asked Persayes and I to go to the pumpkin patch with her a couple of weeks ago and I ma just now blogging about it. We went on a hay ride, picked apples from the orchard and than played with the pumpkins. We had so much fun.
Next week is Persayes birthday. Moember 6th. I can not believe my little baby girl is going to be a year. It blows my mind how fast it has gone. Persayes is in love with climbing the stairs now. I can not take my eyes off her for one minute with out her heading to the stairs. Sometimes she will wait at the bottom until I find her, she than gets all excited, laughs, and heads up the stairs. Tomorrow is our first Halloween as a family. We are all going to be pirates. I will Post some pics in a few days.

Bath Time

Persayes loves baths. Every time I turn the water on she gets so excited and starts clapping and laughing. When she is in the water now she splashes so much that I walk away soaken every time. She is so much fun.
Her two new favorite things to do in my bedroom:
1- Get into the laundry basket after she has pulled everything out.

2- Wrap her self in the drapes.

July

my brother who is a photographer was visiting the end of july. He took a couple of pictures of persayes when her was here/ He has only sent me this one so far so i will post more as i get them.persayes is so much fun now a days. she scoots around on her butt all day long. her fav. thing to do right now is open the cabinets and pull everything out. i need to get the cabinet locks.

Persayes Firsts

Persayes has had alot of fun firsts this summer. we have been swimming alot and having fun. she is now scooting around all over the house.

Tim and Brody in the garage

today I watched courtneys kids while she moved back into her house. I thought Brody would enjoy spending time with Tim so I got him to teach Brody how to use his power tools. They had alot of fun doing it and I think Brody is a natural.

My messy face

Persayes loves eatting her cereal. She gets very messy though.

da-da bla- blah

Persayes started baby talking on saturday- it is so cute. its so wierd to hear her though. I have it on video but I can not figure out how to get it on here- its not loading right. Here are a couple of cute pics that i just took before i got on the computer:
oh to see a cute video of persayes and her friend tavia playing check out my friends blog lisa and tavia. thats persayes yelling with joy in it:)

I'm a Big Kid Now

Hey I'm 6 months old and look what I can do:
Persayes is sitting up on her own now. She sometimes forgets that if she tips over she falls, so I still stay close by when she is sitting. She started eating cereal at 5 months. She cracks up laughing all the time now, and she loves being thrown up in the air. I finally started having her sleep in her room, but Tim and I are sure not sleeping good now:) and she usually ends up in our bed half way through the night. She is such a sweet heart. She now knows the sign for milk and eat. She gets so excited when I sign milk to her and she wants some. My computer is not letting me post pics.

Happy Birthday to me!!

well I turned 25 on Friday. I feel so old:) I had a fun birthday. On thursday my Friend Lisa took me out to lunch to the Pizza Factory. It was very yummy and they gave me a free pizza in the shape of 25.

Than on Friday my friend Mardi took me out to Breakfast to Ihop. thank you lisa and Mardi. I had so much fun celebrating with you two. thank you also to my mom for taking me to the cracker barrel for some cake- yummo.

how I get my laughs now a days:)

So at my sign language class, Lisa and I thought it would be fun to take a picture of Persayes and Tavia in some fun chairs that are at the library. They didn't seem to mind to much at first.

But soon they started screaming and Lisa and I were cracking up at them. So sad:)

sign language class

persayes and I and my friend lisa and her baby Tavia have been going to a sign language class to be able to communicate with our babies before they can talk. I just checked lisa's blog and she had this picture up so i had to steal it. we have so much fun at the class and Tavia and Persayes have fun playing together.

cute headbands

My Mom had a cute idea of making headbands. I went over to her house this week to help her but ended up just holding Persayes the whole time while she sewed them:) but last night I found some cute flowers to put on them and this is how they turned out.

Fun with Daddy

My New Hat

My Mommy and I like to go for walks with some friends in the neighborhood. This is my cool new hat that keeps the sun out of my face. How cool do I look?

My First Easter

Since Courtney is in Italy with all her kids my Mom did an easter egg hunt just for Persayes. It was an intense hunt:) She had alot of fun, but I can not wait until next Easter when Courtney and the kids are back.

SO THEY ALL ROLLED OVER AND ONE FELL OUT....

So I was in the bathroom last night washing out a paint brush and tim called me into the tv room. When i went in Persayes was lying on her tummy. She Rolled over. I was so excited but so sad that I missed seeing her do it. than today i was sitting on the floor by her on her blanket and i look down and she was on her tummy again- once again I missed. thankfully she did it again right after so I saw my baby roll over onto her tummy. she doesn't like being on her tummy though so she gets all fussy until I help her roll back.

comments

i don't know what i did but a couple of posts you can not leave comments, but now you can:)

one, two, three

When ever I am going to take a picture of Persayes I always count to three and she gets all excited and gives me a cute shot like this.

I just Finished making her a new blanket. It is zebra strip and pink. It is so much fun.

funny youtube clip

i am not sure how to load a you tube clip on this but you have to watch it. I almost wet my pants from laughing so hard. make sure you watch it at least twice. :):):) let me know what you think

mommy and me

I love being home with Persayes everyday. Tim is very jealous that I get to. I love taking pictures of her. Here are a couple.

3 months.

Here are some pictures of Persayes. I have so many on my camera and it is very hard to decide which ones to post.

She is now 3 months old. I love her so much and I love being an at home mommy. We have to much fun together.

Well bad news for me- she is getting her teeth. They have not yet broken the skin but you can see and feel them. Keep your fingers crossed for my sake that she isn't a bitter.

It is still not done:):):) almost though

Yes Persayes nursery is still not done. I decided after it was done to add white stripes to the wall so I am still working on it. I go through motivated spurts. Some days I will work on it and others I wont. I have been doing some craft projects for her room. I love doing them for her room. She is going to have the most decorated room in the house.

Here is a pic of her pink, black and white wall with her crib. The bed on the right is pulled away from the wall quite a bit. It is not that close to the crib.

This is the guest bed that is in the room. It is so comfy.

I found these chipboard letters at Roberts so I got scrapbook paper and glued it on and finished them with ribbon.

And here is her little "Time out" chair I got at Roberts and painted. I am not sure if I like the black on it but it is a pain to paint over so it might stay this way.:)

the right is pulled away from the wall so it is not going to be that CLOSE.

My Steal from WalMart

Tims brother gave me a swing for Persayes for my birthday. Tim hooked it up to the wall but blew a fuse in the process. my Mom and I decided to return it to Wal Mart and exchange it for a more girly one. I found one i really liked that was more unisex. It was priced at $59.00. We brought it up to buy and it rang up for $109.00 We went and grabbed the price tag that said $59.00 and they gave it to me for that price. So with the exchange of the other swing I only paid $20.00. I love it when that happens:) Persayes loves it and now i can get so much done during her nap time.

While We were there my Mom bought her a really cute valentines dress.

our weekend

I took a couple of pics this weekend of Persayes. here are some of my faves. Persayes has discovered her hands and we find her sucking on them now. Below is her pretty Christmas dress. It is always hard to hold on to her while she is wearing it.

This is the cute shirt aunt crystal brought her back from new york. She is showing her N.Y attitude.
I decided to do her nursery a little different so I am still working on it. I am excited for it to be done. I will post pics when it is.
