She's One Month Old!

I'm so happy to report that I've survived the first month! Aside from a few meltdowns, a few sleepless nights and learning how to get around town with two kids, it has been fine! I've loved getting to know this little peanut of mine, how she likes to be held, how she likes to sleep, swaddle or no swaddle, those sorts of things. She is a very good baby. I have been very blessed!

All of the clothes I have for her are still too big so she looks like a clown. Sorry Livy girl!


Both of my babies have loved tummy time even when they're this tiny. She loves to look around, especially when Johnny's face is right in front of her!


There's nothing better than a clean smelling baby!

Rodeo Day!

It's Rodeo time in Houston again which means we choose the hottest day to go (this year was no exception!), pay WAY too much to park, enter and eat, and we all have a blast! Johnny loves all the animals, the tractors and all the cowboys, John loves all the food and I love...having something fun to do on a Saturday that does not include yard work and/or laundry! It was a great day and we can't wait for next year!



Check out my sweet new stroller. I LOVE it!


Mmmmmmm....corn dogs.


Cows. And another look at the stroller :)


The petting zoo actually let the kids feed the animals. Johnny was in heaven.

John Deer Tractor. This one's for Grandma and Grandpa Baker! We wish you were here!


Pony rides. Johnny named his pony Cody.


See, he really gets excited over this stuff!

Three Year Pictures

I try to be a good mom and get Johnny's pictures taken every year around his birthday and this year I think they turned out so cute so I had to show you all. His Papa John got him real Wranglers, a real cowboy hat and real boots for Christmas so we dressed him up and went to The Picture People. He was a total ham the entire time sticking his tongue out and showing us his booty but somehow the lady taking the pictures actually got some great shots. At the end, she asked me to sign a waiver to put the pictures up in the store, I was thinking just on the computer screens, but when I came back she had printed, mounted and framed one and put it up in the store! He's famous!

Two Weeks Old!

My little peanut is already two weeks old. They have been a great two weeks! My mom was here and was a HUGE help. Johnny has been so good. I think I prepared myself for the worst and he has been an angel. He is such a big helper and is very protective of his "baby livs". So far, soooo good!







Johnny will just sit and stare at Livy while she is sleeping. It's so cute. He'll bring her toys and lay them next to her. And then he asks if he can jump in the pack and play and sleep with her. Um...NO!

Livy's Room

Here are some pictures of Livy's room. I still need all the little things like a rug, a lamp and some more decorations, but I LOVE the bedding and the curtains! The pictures do not do them justice. The curtains and the bed skirt are lime green taffeta with dark pink embroidered polka dots. The inside of the bumper is pink, soft, yummy silk and you see the outside-so cute. Thanks mom and grandma! You da bomb! Enjoy.

Livy's First Bow

I finally broke out a cute outfit and a bow today for the party. I'm loving this girl stuff!
