Random Cuteness

I have lots of pictures to post from the last few weeks - the Roberts visit and Millie's baby blessing. But, while you wait, here are some cute pics from last Sunday.

I'm Two Months Old!

Millie is growing like a weed - a really sweet, cute weed. At her two month check up she was 12 lbs 5 oz (90th percentile) and 23.25 inches long (85th percentile). She did not like getting her vaccinations on Tuesday, but she woke up very happy the next morning. She is a sweetheart!

Easter Photo Shoot

Millie looked so cute on her first Easter! However, she slept in her carrier through all 3 hours of church, so unfortunately only a few people got to enjoy her cuteness.

Confession

After this morning's conference session, I am compelled to confess my own addiction. I am addicted to buying Millie clothes. I show considerable restraint in shopping for myself, but I can't seem to show the same restraint shopping for her. There are so many cute baby girl clothes out there (and they're so much cheaper than adult clothes). Can anyone relate?

Millie's First Vacay!

Millie told us that she wanted to go on vacation, so of course we obliged. Daddy had to go to a conference for work in Houston, so we tagged along. We stopped in San Antonio for a couple of days and then headed down to The Woodlands. San Antonio was a lot of fun; the Riverwalk was great! The weather was great, and Millie did well in the car. She got a little uncomfy during the last couple of hours of the 8-hour drive on Thursday, but she was great overall. We also got to spend some time with the Baileys, which was a lot of fun! We hadn't seen them since their move to Houston last Summer.

I Liked Hendrix a lot. (Sadly, Errson was in bed and Faryn was sick when this picture was taken.)

First Day at Church and Misc Pics of Miss Millie

Millie went to church for the first time yesterday and looked so cute! Unfortunately, Dad had to work, so Millie had to be photographed alone (and Mom is a bad photographer).



She is a lot more alert these days, too.

Happy Green Day!

Millie got this cute shirt from her Uncle Blake and Aunt Lindsay and wanted to wish you all a happy St. Patty's Day!

I'm One Month Old!

Millie is growing SO fast! Despite a case of baby acne, she is still the cutest kid on the block. Here are some pics from the last couple of weeks.

I'm 2 Weeks Old!

By the time my mommy is making this post, I am actually almost 3 weeks old. But, I am growing really fast! I weigh 9 lbs 11 0z and am 21.5 inches long. That puts me in the 90th percentile for both height and weight. Yay!

Recent Pics of Millie

Here are some recent pics of our little girl. She spends most of her time sleeping and growing her cheeks. We love her!

Camille - Day 2 - Valentine's Day

We are just loving our little girl! She seems like she is constantly changing; I'm sure that she is finally getting straightened out from being in the birth canal so long. (I'll post the labor story later.)

We love her so much! She has been really laid back and easygoing and is eating really well. We are excited to bring her home tomorrow and show her her room and all her goodies.

Camille is Here!


I started having contractions at about 6 pm on Thursday night, and Camille was born at 7:23 AM this morning (Friday, the 13th). She is a very sweet girl, and we love her very much. We couldn't believe how big she was - 9 lbs 2 oz, 20.5 inches. (Look at those huge cheeks!) No wonder I spent 3 hours pushing...I will post more pics as we move past the first day...but, we are all doing well!

No Baby Yet...

Well, February 9th came and went, and Camille is still in utero. However, as of this afternoon, I am dilated to a 3 and 70% effaced, so hopefully that is a good sign that she is coming soon...

39 Weeks, 1 Day

Well, I am still pregnant - and happily so. I am dilated to a 2 (generous estimation, said the doctor), so who knows when little Camille will come. If she doesn't come on her own by Tuesday, February 17th, she will be coaxed along in the form of an induction. So, no news for now...

Surprise!! Baby Shower & Pics of Nursery

Well, we finally finished the nursery/guest room on Monday. It was a great feeling to get it done before little Camille Blair (yes, that is going to be her name) needs it. Here are some pics of the little princess's room (and your room for any of you who come visit us).


First, this is the before picture of the changing table. I have to praise Chris' handyman/woodworking abilities. He re-finished this piece of furniture so it would match the crib and dresser we bought, and I have to admit he did a fabulous job.

Doesn't it look like it is part of the set? (The little blanket in the shadow box is one of Chris' baby blankets.)

The guest bed on the other side of the room

And, oh my goodness! Karen and Erin are the awesomest friends and planned a surprise baby shower for me! They told me it was going to be a week from last night, but it was really last night. It was really fun, and so many wonderful ladies celebrated with us. Everyone was so generous, and little Camille was again spoiled with some precious ensembles. Is it too early to call her a clothes horse (in a nice way, of course)? Thank you to all of you for coming and for the wonderful gifts! Here are some pics of the evening:


Really soft toy (Camille got some of the cutest lamb clothes, a towel, a bib, and this really cute toy. Isn't that appropriate since my first given name is Mary?)

Most of the Attendees

When will she come and how big will she be? (There were also signs around with titles of ABBA songs...these girls love a theme! :))

Whoo hoo! A Baby Bjorn!
