Family Pictures

We finally got around to taking new family pictures. Not the greatest, but they will work until I lose 20 pounds :)

I love this one of Morgan we can never get her to smile normal for pictures (I think she got this from the Sucher side :) )

By the time we got to taking pictures of Whitney she was not a happy camper so I will have to take some this week of her but for now here you go!

Here she is

BEFORE:









AFTER:




(Isn't my model cute! Yes, she is still obsessed with wearing dresses, silly girl!)

I am pretty happy with how it has turned out, I am going to try to make the legs a little less BRIGHT white and add some upholstery tacks to the corners to hide some of the staples. But, she is good enough for now.

Lots of pictures!


The girls first bath together.


I bought this for $3 at a garage sale thinking I could cover it pretty easily, it was a little more difficult than I expected but it will do.


Next time maybe I will look for a pattern! Oh well it still serves its purpose.


Master Chef Jeff! I think we got these BBQ tools from my mom...I think, but I love it when Jeff puts them on, it cracks me up everytime!


We saw some ribs on sale at Walmart, neither of us have every bbq'd ribs before so we didn't know how much meat was on them so we gave it a shot.


mmmm, tasty! They were actually REALLY REALLY good (good job hun!) but not a lot of meat on them...like, at all! haha, if anyone has any suggestions for buying ribs that would be great because honestly what little meat was on there was GREAT!



My sister in law is letting us use their excersaucer for Whitney and this is how she spent the first week or so using it, but now she is starting to play more and more with the toys. She is so fun to watch.


I took Morgan and Malorie (my friends little girl who I watched) to the Littleton historic farm for our playgroup and they had a lot of fun. We may just have to go back! :)


The girls and the new baby calf.







Although I am not watching Malorie anymore Morgan asks for her EVERYDAY, MULTIPLE times a day. (Marianne, I think we need a play date)


Morgans friend Ellie.



So cute I just couldn't resist!



I made this nursing cover the other night it was pretty easy to make, I was so excited about it, but then I decided I needed a more girly one so I passed it on to another mom, now I just need to find the perfect fabric!


Whitney's pigtails! It makes me so sad that I can give her pigtails but so fun too! It just makes her seem so much older than she really is!!!


Here is my happy four month old!


This is what she spends a lot of her time doing, lately.


SO, I found this gem the other night walking home. I was so excited because I saw a great tutorial on how to make it into an ottoman! Here is the web-site http://littlegreennotebook.blogspot.com/2009/03/make-ottoman-from-coffee-table.html
Anyway, I am not so sure about all that detail work, but we will see how it goes!

Four Month Check-up

I can't believe Whitney is already four months! (Actually she is about four and a half months right now but I am slow at blogging!) It kills me to see her getting so big so fast!!! Here are her four month stats:

Height: 24.75 inches/64th%
Weight: 12 lbs 2 oz/15th%
Head: 16 in/34%

She rolled over about three weeks ago, she did it over and over and over again....but she hasn't done it since that night! Silly girl. We are trying to give her rice cereal but she does not like it! So I am just going to keep trying but if any of you have tips it would be much appreciated!

Her sleeping is so random. Some nights it she wakes up once a night and others are ....MUCH more! I don't know what to do, so I think in a month or so I may just let her cry it out.

She is such a happy baby, I love it! She is so smiley and laughs all the time. She LOVES to watch Morgan, and Morgan is starting to get more and more attached. I love it, that is the one thing about them getting bigger. It makes me excited for them to be friends and be able to play together.
