Just For The Record...

Let me clear this up once and for all..

She looks like...

JACKSON!

Pretty Blue Skirt

Aunt Sarah gave Lila this pretty blue skirt, and I have been waiting for warm enough weather to put it on her. The weather never did get nice enough last week, but I put her in it anyway. It is so cute. I want to make a blue bow to go with it. She was 3 weeks in these pictures.
Obviously she isn't happy, but it sure is a good picture of the skirt.

Baby's First Bath

This baby doll came in the bday package for Sunny. It is meant to get wet and be taken in the tub. Sunny loves it ( her name is Mimi also). Last night I noticed Sunny was missing and then heard water running. I found her in the bathroom bathing baby Mimi in the sink. All I can say is there was a lot of water involved, even more of my Bath and Bodyworks foaming soap, and one big brother. That is one clean baby doll.

Sunny and Lila's Extravaganza

One thing you should know about Mok, is that when she sends a b-day package it always contains presents for the other kids. Sunny was so cute, she wanted a picture of herself with every present.

Jackson's Birthday Extravaganza

Jackson's birthday is Saturday, and yesterday he got a package from Mok and Pok in the mail. He was so excited. It's amazing how young they figure out that packages from Mok and Pok are the best ever!!! He had a ball opening everything. He got Horton Hears A Who, extra sets for his Geo Trax, a cool monster truck, and lots of clothes (that I love). Oh yeah, and a neat spiderman kite that he is dying to go fly at the park!


FYI - Mok and Pok are my grandparents who live in Alabama, making them Jax's Great-Grandparents. (He also has a Great-Great-Grandmother, Mok's mother, that lives in Mass.) Lucky kid to have so many people who love him!

Like mother like son?

Last night Jackson was supposed to go to sleep, but was allowed to play in his room for awhile. After awhile I decided to go turn off his light and found him in his snow pants and coat for some strange reason so I took some pictures cause it was pretty funny. About two hours later he woke up sweating and complaining about how hot he was. Sarah also does strange things like this. Today I asked him why he put his snow clothes on and he told me he was getting cold. In the next picture you will notice the amount of toys he puts on his bed to sleep with every night. I had to take about 10 other toys off his bed so he could sleep. I noticed he had also stuffed toys in his pillowcase, which I had to remove.
Lila is cute.

My Favorite Baby Gift

Those of you who know me know that I am a complete baby hog. I hate letting other people hold my baby. Lila is 2 weeks old and my Mom has held her 2 or 3 times and my Dad has held her once. Ryan pretty much only gets her when I'm in the shower, or when he puts me on a guilt trip for hogging her. I think it's because pregnancy is so hard for me that I feel like I deserve to hold her all I want after I worked so hard to get her here.

Anyway, with this in mind my mom got me this sling for Christmas. I have been so excited to use it, and this is the first time I put Lila in it. It is a hotsling (I'm sure those of you more computer literate than me would put the link to the website, but I don't know how to do that), and I am in love with it. Hopefully it'll keep people away from her and allow me to hold her all I want while taking care of my older kids.

Doesn't she look so comfy? She really liked it a lot. It is actually really comfortable to wear her this way. I think I will get a lot of use out of it.
