Ears and Tears @ 18 Weeks

Another eventful week. I'm beginning to understand the concept of "time flies" and wish that it would slow down so we can breathe a little. We are going on vacation this week to visit Blake's parents in Florida so I will probably be late with the next posting. Enjoy!!!

We love Sunday lunches with the family. Here is Rose playing with her Great Aunt Minnie.



And her Uncle Brad feeding her (isn't he a cutie - he's single ladies!)




I've decided that life really isn't fair. This is what I have to leave to every morning. It's so darn cute I just want to kiss their cheeks all day long and stay at home. Too bad kisses don't pay the bills.





Then I get texts all day of my cutie sleeping in the most adorable poses. Don't get me wrong, I love getting these texts but it makes me want to stay home all day.






Rose and Taylor are becoming quite good friends. Rose is starting to grab tufts of Taylor's hair; Taylor is such a good sport about it. They are starting to become curious and play together. Rose will smile really big when Taylor jumps on the couch.



Rose tried to support her Titans this Sunday, but they still sucked. Oh well, at least she looked cute.





Rose likes helping me do chores around the house. Laundry is her favorite if coupled with hide and seek. I'm going to have to embrace spit up and/or slobber on my clean laundry.




Lil Miss Thang is facinated by her spoon and loves to steal if from me while I'm feeding her. She is getting much better at eating rice cereal. The trick, I've discovered, is mixing it with apple juice - finger lickin' good apparently. She is also more interested in the bowl and sitting sideways then facing me. I guess I'll take the blame on this one - she has to be where the action is!!!








After looking at this picture, I'm wondering if it's not a smart idea to start buckling her in. Just a hunch.


We took Rose to the pediatrician on Thursday for her 4 month check-up and shots. She was running a fever but tested negative for an ear infection and the flu. Sure enough, she was still running a fever on Friday and we figured out that she had developed an ear infection. She is probably the best acting baby with an ear infection that I've ever seen - granted, we caught it the first day but I feel really blessed that I didn't have the up all night, fussy baby with an ear infection. She is on antibotics and is doing great!




I finally got my camera back - yahhh! Here are some pictures from our visit to Florence last weekend.

Blake and his momma (Lou Lou):


The first time that Rose met Gigi (Blake's grandma).






She is so darn cute. I'm so happy that she's mine.



My little Rose-bug



Here is a video of Rose and Jama (my mom) playing. You can see that she is starting to giggle and interact more. I think she is as cute as a button (okay, cuter than a button, but you know what I mean).

She IS cuter than a button!! BTW, you do realize that your next child will probably be a holy terror, right? Surely you wouldn't be so lucky to have all perfect babies? :-)
