Annabel says, "I can do it myself, Mom!"

Happy Memorial Day!

Annabel went to her first parade today. No pictures from that, as Mommy forgot the memory card, but here's one from just a short while later. Doesn't she look cute in cousin Georgia's outfit?
New blog colors for summer - inspired by Annabel's outfit and bouncy seat

Making new friends

Annabel made some new friends today. Their mothers and I met first online through our agency's website, and later in person. We're looking forward to the kids becoming great friends in the coming years!

Kingsley, Annabel, and Gracie

Kristy with Gracie (1 week), Andi with Kingsley (1 month), and Karen with Annabel (3 months)

Mmmm good!


This is not my idea of fun

Annabel is not a big fan of the baby wearing trend!

I'm 3 months old!

Today I'm 3 months old. I have a few new tricks up my sleeve:
  • I like to hold onto things tightly, especially mommy's hair.
  • I'm sleeping 6 hours in a row at night.
  • I've figured out that if you hit the monkey and parrot on the bouncy seat, they spin and music plays. It works best when I kick my legs and flap my arms.
  • I have a whole chorus of vowel sounds.
  • I can do half a sit-up.
  • I laugh when I sneeze, and
  • I CAN SUCK MY THUMB!!

Annabel now has an Austin playmate!


Little cutie John Michael was born yesterday morning to Michael and Mary Beth! At 21", he's going to be tall like his Daddy! Congratulations to his wonderful parents and their families!
