8 weeks old pics - from Tuesday

It was REALLY nice on Tuesday (the day Molly turned 8 weeks old) so we went outside and took some pictures! She loves being outside.

Then, we went inside (to change a poopy diaper) and played in the nursery...

My attempt to take our picture with the SLR camera.

We are trying out the BUMBO seat a little each week. She's getting TONS better!

"Mom!!! My head is just too heavy!"

2 months old!!

"It's my 2 month birthday!!"

I can't believe my little girl is two months old.

As of today, Molly...

- is smiling quite a bit. She can smile at us. Nana even had her laughing (well cooing really loud)

- is eating about 4 oz. every 3 hours. (Except at night, she can go about 5)

- is only getting up once a night...around 2ish.

- has grown to Size 1 diapers...fully. Newborns are just too small.

- is mainly wearing 0-3 months clothes...although she can still wear some newborn stuff.

- can turn and look at Justin and I when we are having a convo. (from one to the other)

- still loves taking baths.

- can "reach up" and "play" with the toys on the car seat.

- has begun to like her playmat.

- naps in her crib during the day.

Molly - Daddy and I love you very much! Happy 2 month birthday!

What a beautiful weekend!!

"Playing" in her swing..she's not a big fan of the swing!

This has been a great weekend. We are having beautiful weather and it's given us a chance to go for walks, go to the park, and take some pictures.

Friday night, after we got home from Nana's house... (her outfit below is on backwards...courtsey of Nana...)

We decided to play dress up while she was happy... her outfit below consists of a onesie from Wally World (I'm trying to get her to wear the all the newborn stuff while she still can), and leg warmers from Target...Justin thought they were silly...he kept saying, "I'm sorry your momma's crazy, Molly." Then I put on her "flip flops" that Nana got for her at JCP. They are too cute. I'm so excited that it's going to be warm this week...she can wear them instead of her tennies.

Saturday - Justin worked his last Saturday of tax season...YEAH!!! Molly and I went out to Nana's and helped her clean her house a little bit. We went for a walk around the neighborhood.

Our walk was really rough on Molly...she acutally took a brief nap.

Later Staturday night, I finally caught up on my baby book reading and Justin playing with the camera (I'm starting the 12 weeks to better photography...posts to come later).


Since we woke up late this morning, we didn't make it to early service and decided to not go to late service. I know...we are bad people...hopefully God will forgive us and still watch over us this week... :) The reason I think he will is b/c we spent the day as a family. We cleaned a bit this morning...we did some laundry...Molly took a good nap (45 minutes or so) and then we went to the park...It was Molly's first trip to the park and I think she liked it. She LOVES...I mean, LOVES...being outside. Mamaw and Papaw even met us there. (After their trip to Lowe's)

I was excited b/c she got to (finally) wear a summer outift. I took her shoes and socks off and she just kicked her little feet while we walked.

Here's come all the pictures...trust...there's a lot... She and I even went down the slide...TWICE!!! It was fun! She got a kick out of it.

With Mamaw...right before she started screaming bloody murder...everyone in the park turned to look...it was neat!

When we got home (and after Molly had eaten...she was STARVING), we went back outside and took some more pictures (to play with the flash)...

With Mommy

With Daddy

Daddy took this picture...I really wish she had been looking....

Hope everyone has a great week!!! Make sure you get your taxes filed by Thursday!!! Yeah!!! Tax season ends Thursday!!!

God Bless everyone...

Happy Easter!! Lots of pics!!

Saturday before Easter Sunday, we were busy with birthday parties...Aunt Kelly turned 31 and cousin Jackson turned the big 3!! Molly's daddy did NOT love the hat I put on her but I informed him that he didn't have much choice.

I made the flower but bought the hat

I love her bib...we got a set of cute bibs with cute sayings at Macy's on Good Friday

I ordered these off Etsy...they are a little big still but it won't be long.

"Come on people...I'm already tired of pictures!"

What the heck is this thing on my head?!

Molly's Easter outfit. I kinda let the ball drop on this first holiday...I didn't get her an Easter basket (although both mamaw and nana covered it)...And I didn't get any pictures with her and the two of us.

The shoes were cutest part of her outfit!

Molly's bloomers

"Mom!! My head is too heavy!"

"I'm done!!!"

Sunday afternoon, Justin and I took her for a walk to calm her down...long story for another post!

Hope everyone had a great Easter and remembered to thank God for sending his son to die on the cross for our sins...

God Bless!

7 weeks old today!

My little Elton John baby....Molly on the boppy with diamonds

Playing on the boppy at Nana's

She loves bathtime...I think it's b/c she LOVES being naked...

Playing at the cabin

I can't believe my little angel is 7 weeks old. She is getting so big.

1. She doesn't need suuport when laying in the bathtub. (obviously I'm there in case she decides to lean over)

2. She is sleeping in the night around 4 -5 hours. She wakes up once around 2 or 3 am to eat. last night, she probably would have slept till 4 or 5 if I would let her. But I woke her up to feed her at 3.

3. She is turning her head to look at things (when on her back)

4. She can follow you with her eyes.

5. She is finally wearing some 0-3 month clothing....mainly sleepers. She still can't wear her jeans but soon. She's still wearing Newborn pants and onesies...although I think she might be able to wear some 0-3 onesies.

She is kinda tempramemtal...she is easily stressed (like me...poor girl). We are working on self soothing...although I've not read anything specifically about it. :)

I will try to update later with Easter pictures. She looked sooooooooo cute in her little dress and sweater....I promise to get better at updating...
