Our Valentine Surprise For Daddy

Aaron loves cake, a lot! So last night Noelle and I baked some cupcakes and decorated them for Daddy. He was so very excited when he got home to see all of the yummy treats. Can you tell which were done by Noelle all by herself?

The decorating went mainly like this: a lick for me, a little for the cupcake, again, again, and again.

Yes, her pants are unbuttoned.

Morning Workout

Wouldn't you love to do your morning workout totally naked? Well, maybe if I looked this cute I would consider it!

I can hardly stand it, she's just so stinkin' edible. Even her little bummie has rolls!

Guitar Hero

Even Noelle has been bitten by the bug!

Sweetest girl ever...my nice Evynn.

Cara and Natalie

Noelle has the best time with her friends Cara and Natalie...

BONUS: Noelle loved wearing the little bonnett from Madeleine's blessing dress. If she ever converts to the Amish faith, she'll fit right in.

Woo-Hoo!

I left my camera at Auntie's so no pictures but we had a couple of fun days at Great Grandma and Grandpa Jones' house in San Luis Obispo while Daddy worked. Noelle loved them both, especially Grandpa. If she was not right under his feet (which made me incredibly nervous) she was asking where he was.

Friday night we celebrated Great Grandma Honey's birthday at Auntie's with the whole family. The main attraction was their new Guitar Hero. It was a blast! As my brother, Matthew, put it, "It's the new crack!"

The highlight? Madeleine was so worn out from all the fun and being passed from person to person she fell asleep on Auntie's bed at about 11:00pm, then slept until 8:30am. Holy Moly! When we got home we just left her in the car seat on my side of the bed, I kept waking up peeking in on her and she just snoozed right along. Last night was not a repeat, unfortunately, but we know she can do it!

Madeleine's Blessing

We had Madeleine's Baby Blessing on Sunday at Church (Superbowl Sunday! Not intentional.), it was such a sweet Day. Her Daddy gave her a beautiful blessing, which she peacefully slept through. We had most of our dear friends there with us and we are so appreciative of their love and support. Sorry, we did not get any pictures with them...I always do that! Lunch at our house afterwards was great, we love spending time with everyone. Noelle is especially thankful for Jacob, they have way too much fun together.

Sweetest Baby Girl...

Daddy and his GIRLS

Can't remember what but I am sure Aaron was saying something silly...

Yes, my eye disease is flaring up some. I will have a health/Graves' update tomorrow!

2 Months

We went to Madeleine's 2 month well baby check this morning. She was so very, very mad when I woke her to take her clothes off, the whole time she was getting weighed and measured she screamed her little head off. She then promptly peed all over me when I picked her up, sure showed me! She was all smiles and cooing for the rest of the exam. Until it was vaccination time, that is, not so much fun. 5 shots for such a tiny thing! I'm sure the screaming could be heard in the next building. By the time we got back home she was sound asleep, that was interrupted by more incessant screaming. Julianna rescued me with some Tylenol and she seems to be feeling better. Poor baby girl.

Stats:

Weight: 12lbs 14oz - 87%

Length: 23 Inches - 68%

Head: 15.5 - 63%

Family Fun Time!

We love it when Daddy gets home early and we have time to play!

Great-Grandma Jones

Aaron spent a few days working in San Luis Obispo last week, so he got to visit with Grandma and Grandpa Jones while he was there. Grandma Jones is the most amazing quilter, her work is unbelievable. Here is the quilt she made for baby Madeleine. I wish the picture showed all the detail it's beautiful!

For Aunt Amy...

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

I just love it. The picture doesn't even do it justice.
