I love all the little rolls!

I don't know why it took us so long to get Livvi a highchair but we finally did and now I am wishing we would of done that so much sooner! She just loves to sit there and make a mess. Its so fun to see her really focus on grabbing her food and trying SO hard to get it in her mouth. She is so not into her veggies and that makes me sad because I worked so hard on making my own baby food so it would be all natural but she loves apple sauce, peaches, puffs, licorice (oh what a mess), gummy worms and I'm sure all the candy in the world if I would give it to her! Its so fun to see the look on her face when she gets a taste of sugar!

CHUBBY CHUBBY




Are these not the cutest little feet ever! They are so dang CHUBBY I just love it but it stinks because she can't wear shoes, they just don't fit without cutting off all circulation!

What A Mess But Sooo Worth It!!!


The other day I gave Livvi a teething biscuit and boy what a mess but she just loves them!

So I have to admit that I am having a hard time with how fast Livvi is growing up! The other day someone asked me how old she was and I lied, I know that is horrible but for some reason I just couldn't say 7 months, that just sounds way to old! But what a fun stage she is at, she is pulling herself up, crawling and sitting up...this girl is always on the go! The other day I heard her crying so I went up stairs and it was the cutest thing ever...her little head was peeking over the crib, as frustrating as it is I just think it is so cute! I just love this girl so much, she is just so happy and sweet pretty much all of the time. She is so curious and is always checking people out. She can really stare you down if you have white hair, she prefers that you keep your distance! Its sad and funny all at the same time.

SEYMORE 2009











I thought it would be so fun to get the family together and do a campout, we had so much dang fun I almost didn't want to come home! I sure hope we can make this an annual tradition! The weather was great, we played lots of games, ate too much yummy food and the kids had a blast being able to roam around and explore things they had never seen. It was so fun to sit around the camp fire and laugh and talk together as a family, what great memories we made!!!

Welcome to Parenthood...not sure I like this part so much!!!




Well last night Phil and Livvi headed to the grocery store while I was still at work. Suni called me at work and I told her I was in a middle of a case and couldn't talk. She said not to scare you but Livvi had fallen and she is bleeding really bad. Oh my gosh I just panicked...my baby was bleeding! Phil couldn't get a hold of me so he called Suni and she told him to take her to the urgent care. I guess Phil was carrying her around and set her in the car seat on top of the shopping cart to grab something and then all of a sudden he heard this loud smack! Livvi had fallen about 5ft right on her poor little face and started bleeding out of her nose and mouth. Phil rushed her to the urgent care and the doctor looked at her for maybe 5 minutes and said she was fine...what, who are you??? We didn't feel comfortable with the care that we recieved so we went home and gave her a blessing and headed for the ER at Desert Hospital. They got us in quick and she got a CT of her head and then we waited 3 long hours with the most nasty, smelly people you could ever find. Where do these people come from??? Anyway all is good, the CT looked good and off we went 4.5 hours later. What a blessing! Thanks for all the prayers and fasting we really appreciate it!

Do you think the head band that I just took off is a little small??? Poor thing!





LOOK WHAT I FOUND!!!






Livvi is sure lucky to have such a great daddy, he just adores her! It is so cute to watch them play together. Phil just soaks it up when people notice Livvi, he is one proud dad! We were laughing so hard when she spit up all over him. There is one thing Phil does not do well with and that is spit up. He can't stand to be dirty. He went straight upstairs and washed his hair!

Starting to sit up all my herself!!!






So I have been trying to introduce some new foods to Livvi now that she is 6 months and I must say she doesn't want anything to do with it. As you can see she is not starving so I am not too worried for now. She has been sleeping through the night since she was 7 weeks, yeah I know I totally lucked out, but for now I am just going to wait a little longer and then try it again. It was important to me to make all her food. So thanks to my mom and her garden that is where I have been getting all my veggies. Thanks to my BEABA baby cook from Williams Sonoma it sure makes it a lot easier! My mom did the same thing for us kids so I feel like I should try and carry that on.

Don't you just wish you had a side profile that looked like this???

She is trying so hard!





Well before we know it Livvi will be crawling! She gets up on all fours and rocks, it is so dang cute. She can for sure get to anything if she wants it bad enough by scooting...we are so impressed! I know with your first you think every little thing they do is amazing, and yes we are totally that way.


I don't know why but I just LOVE this picture of Livvi. She is growing so fast and doing so many new things each and every day, I just love it!

When we got back from Cancun I couldn’t believe how much Livvi had changed and grown! She was rolling around all over the place and she finally discovered her little toes, its so cute! Here are some picture that I have taken in the last month…










Livvi can be such a serious baby at times, I think she gets that from me. But look how cute and chubby she is getting. For some reason this picuture just cracks me up, no matter what I did I was not getting a smile out of her!

Livvi and I had such a good day today. I have had the past two days off and we haven't done anything but hang out. It's kinda nice not to always be loading her in car and feeling like we are always on the go. Sometime I feel like that's all we do and I feel so guilty, like I am missing out and not giving her enough attention. We all know she is getting plenty of attention, especially from her sweet cousins Abby and Gracie. Livvi goes to Sunis house two times a week while I work, it is so nice to have family! She couldn't be in a better home and they just adore her over there! Thanks Suni for all you do! Today Livvi fed herself the bottle, to be honest I was a little sad. I felt like gosh she doesn't even need me to feed her anymore! (Dang it I went to put the pic of Livvi feeding herself and I downloaded them but I can't find it and it deleted it off my camera, o'well!) I seriously always have computer issues!

Livvi is getting so big, she is now 15lbs! She loves to roll over, chew on her hands, eat, play with her cousins, and talk. She is changing every day. She is now 4 months and I can't blieve it! She is still sweet as they come and I feel lucky to be her momma!
