First day of school

MR started a new school this year and we were all so excited for the first day to finally come!

And this is how great of a day it was! It took her about 10 minutes to pass out in the car.

Hannah turns 6!

Hannah is our goddaughter and it is hard to believe she is 6! We remember so well when she was born very early and was a tiny little thing. Her mom, Mel, always makes the coolest cakes. This year, Hannah is in to science so Mel made a volcano cake with dry-ice and everything. The kids thought it was the coolest!

MR and her Grammy

MR's Grammy got them matching shirts! (My mom's is actually for her school, but MR thought they were very cool.)

Dress-up Time

MR loves to dress-up ALL THE TIME!

Just one of her many outfits. She chooses all the outfits, accessories and hair styles.

Last of Summer Days

MR loved swimming in her "yard pool". Very redneck of us, but all that matters was that she loved it!

My baby!

I was looking through some old computer files and found pictures of MR at her former school. Despite the school's flaws, they were really good about taking pictures during the school day and sending to the parents.

These pictures made me miss my little baby girl!!!

MR picked out the giraffe costume because she had a giraffe on her sweater.

Tired during a morning run, MR is the one in the pink jacket laying on the ground.

Picked out the zebra because she has a zebra print dress on!

Fall Clothing

Yes, I know, two posts in one day...a new record for me!

So most of you how crazy I am about children's clothing. Well it is Fall Trunk Season and it is in full swing. I get so excited seeing all the great fabrics and patterns that these companies put out there. I want it all!! But have to show a lot of constraint. Anyway, I thought I would some of my favorite companies this fall that MR may be sporting :)

But one of my favs is not a company at all. Just a sweet girl that lives in my neighborhood and has opened up an etsy (www.etsy.com) shop.

She is amazing! I have taken loads of fabric to her and she turns it in to sweet little outfits for MR!

Apology

I feel like I need to make an apology for no posts recently. As you know we are expecting Baby #2. And just like when I was pregnant with MR, I have had rough patches of "all-day" sickness. Not sure why they ever called it "morning sickness", when it lasts ALL DAY LONG.

Anyway, I promise to get back soon to posting precious pictures of our precious little girl. She has been having lots of fun this summer and has also been taking good care of her mommy.

Baby #2 is 11 weeks old and growing. Well actually I am growing, so I am hoping that means the baby is growing as well :)
