8 months already! So busy no time for blogging!




8 months old and lots of changes!!! Keaton quickly discovered how to sit up in her crib and then of course pull herself up to standing. Now when we walk in her room, she is standing there waving to us... she loves to wave! She has eaten almost all the wood off the inside of her crib which is pretty incredible since she still only has her bottom two teeth from when she was 4 months old... what a little chipmunk. She is crawling all over the place and even attempts to crawl up the stairs. She is cruising around the edge of her crib as well as around the coffee table and couches and she loves to hang and swing from the baby gates in the house. She discovered Barley's food bowl and loves to play in it, so unfortunatley for Barley it spends most of the time up on the counter. We had another ear infection this month (2 total now). She loves to play with her ears so how am I suppose to know if her ear is infected? So we are on 10 days of antiobiotics. We attempted to take Keaton the the lake and she screamed bloody murder the entire time she had her life jacket on. Is was a very stressful day and she won the battle. We docked the boat, took her life jacket off and let her play on the floor of the boat. Next time we head out to the lake I think we will get Maria to watch Keaton. Maria also taught Keaton to do an Indian sound with her mouth which is so adorable. She is developing such a cute personality and is very sweet and still such as easy baby! Next week we go to the doctor for her 9 month appt...

Photo shoot with mom




So here's the tutu mom bought me at 2 a.m. one night when she couldn't sleep. It's a good thing it has an elastic waste for my pudgy rolls...

My LOVE


Happy Mother's Day to ME!

Happy Mother's Day




What a great day! I got to sleep in this morning while Nathan took Keaton on a jog and then to the grocery store. Then he cooked me a wonderful, BIG breakfast. We then went to bowl... Ha! Yes, I still have it. I beat Nathan twice! After that, we went to the arboretum to listen to jazz music and to enjoy some sunshine. Then we picked up Nathan's grandmother and took her out to Shells for dinner. Long day, great day...
Keaton is growing so much everyday. She loves to do the zerbert sound with her mouth and to click her tongue. She can pull herself up to standing, but she can't get from lying to sitting yet. She still loves to be in the standing position, but is still not too fond of the crawling postion. She is always in a good mood. Even last night when we arrived at a friend's house... we heard her grunting away in the backseat of the car, which was then followed by a fowl smell. We knew it would be bad, but we had never seen this before. When we opened the back door to the car Keaton had poop all over herself. It was on her arms and on her cheek and ALL over her carseat. I had never seen anything like it and so quickly all over her. Thanks to the fast work of Julie, we quickly stripped her down outside and cleaned her up. Not a single peep out of her the whole time, just as content as can be...
