Daffodils 2012

We took a trip to Wye Mountain the other day to see the daffodils and try to get a few pictures of the kids together.  Boston was totally not interested in taking pictures!  Below are a few of them.  Bad idea on my part to dress them in white with the suns reflection and shadows...











The pictures are a far cry from the ones my friend Melissa took last year! Looking back on those, Boston has grown SO much!

Boston's 3 year and Blakely's 6 month photos

So my BFF Melissa Reibe took some awesome pictures of my kiddos a couple of weeks ago.  She just had a handsome little boy Cooper a couple of months ago so we went over to her house and played around and had fun!

Blakely-7 months




Gah! I know I'm biased but could she be any cuter?!?!  I love those chubby cheeks so much!!!!

You didn't really have a 7 month birthday because of leap year this year so this post is a little late.  
We go to the Dr tomorrow for your 6 month check up.  I am dreading the shots for you!
I weighed you last week and were a whopping 14lbs!  You are still in a size 2 diaper but I think the next box we can try a size 3.  You have pretty much outgrown your 3-6 month clothes.  I'm hoping it warms up/stays warm because all of your winter clothes are too small!  I went to a consignment sale this weekend and bought you some cute summer dresses in size 6-9 month, 6-12 month and 12-18 months.  It seems you have really hit a growth spurt so I'm unsure how big you will be by the end of summer.
You are sitting up so well and pushing up with your arms. You still dislike being on your tummy but seem to sleep better that way. You are constantly moving!  I feel like we are going to be in trouble when you get mobile!  Your legs are always kicking even while you sleep!  You love to jump too!
You are my little smiling angel!  I'm so blessed to have had 2 happy babies!!! 
Lately you haven't been sleeping through the night.  You wake up really fussy at least once maybe twice a night,  I'm guessing its because you are teething or you may just not be a good sleeper like your brother was. 
I am officially finished nursing and I feel bad about it.  Its just mommy guilt I suppose... I thought I would be able to go longer since I am at home now, but it seems as if I'm busier at home than I was at work.  We are constantly on the go!
Your brother is your favorite person and he loves you SO much!  Its so cute to see!

These have been the best 7 months of our lives thanks to you!
