What I did this summer


Believe it or not I did do more than have a baby. Although, nothing as fun.

I took Bella and Emi to Maddi Hadley's 2nd birthday party. This was a slide that Bella thought looked like a butt. I guess you could say that...

We took Emi to Burnet a couple of times. 


I took Bella to the Justin Beiber concert again because we got free tickets.

I had my 3rd wedding anniversary. We kept it low key. Haha. 

We painted for my birthday. 

We hung out at the boat dock until it got too hot. 




I revamped the laundry room.



I took Bella to get her first make-up that she could wear in public and taught her how to shave her legs.




I made art for my room in Burnet.




I took down this awful wallpaper but I haven't finished with the texture or paint yet. 

I was going to stain my bathroom cabinets and we're in the process of redoing Bella's bedroom, but those things aren't done yet. 
So sad the summer is ending. Emotionally I haven't dealt with it yet. 


3 months!


3 month Stats
Weight: 11 lbs 12 oz

Length: not sure but she’s too long for 0-3 month onesies now.

Eating: She eats every 3.5-4 hours and usually 4-5 times per day.

Bedtime: We usually go upstairs around 7:45 and read a couple books, eat a last bottle and she’s usually down by 8:45.  

Awake: She wakes up at 7:00 AM on the dot every morning. It doesn’t matter what time she goes to bed, she’ll be up right at 7:00 AM.

Naps: She’s a great napper when she gets to take a nap in her crib. If we want her to take a nap in her pack n play she isn’t as easy and if we want her to nap in the car seat, FORGET it!

Diapers: She’s in size one, but I’m not sure for how long. She’s getting bigger and the size 2s say 12+ pounds, but the size ones say up to 14 pounds. Lots of people bought me size ones because we all thought she was going to be bigger so I have over 400 size ones. I’m sure I’ll be donating soon…

Clothes: She just grew out of 0-3. Now she’s completely in 3 months, but not quite anything larger.  

Favorites: Still loves her play mat. She’s starting to like laying on her boppy for tummy time. She still loves bath time and has started to splash the water.

Dislikes: She doesn’t like the soap when we bathe. I think it’s too cold. She doesn’t like when I use a baby wipe when I change her diaper. She also doesn’t like when I put clothes over her head. I have to be fast or it has to be a wide neck.  

Latest accomplishment: She went swimming twice this month. She LOVES the water. I can’t wait until next summer when we can be in the water more. She has also started to play with toys and grip things. And she found her hands this month and has started inspecting them.

She's started picking her head up on her hoppy

I tried to get creative
