3 Months

Callie is not sure what to think about being
3 months old and sitting up on her own!

Just kidding... she loves it!

Where did my infant go? Although she isn't super little anymore, it has been fun to see Callie's personality start to show. This girl loves to smile, especially at her sister. Anytime Kinsley walks in the room Callie gives her a big smile. Kinsley gets excited to see her smile too.  Callie is also starting to laugh. She is so ticklish. If you find the right spot she squirms and makes one little giggle sound. I haven't figured out how to get her to full on laugh yet.
Kinsley had "guest day" at preschool this month. She decided to take Callie. Callie slept the whole time and didn't play like Kinsley had hoped.
On February 7th we had Callie dedicated at church. She got to wear the special dedication dress (and headband).  She was pretty content through it all.

She always has that hand in her mouth!

Oh yeah, I chopped my hair :/

 My time off of work went way too fast! I am so glad I only work 2 days a week. The first weekend went pretty smoothly, I didn't even get tired! Callie and Chris on the other hand did not have such a smooth weekend. I guess we did not practice enough with the bottle because she didn't want anything to do with it. They eventually figured it out.

Doesn't he look thrilled?

One of my favorite holidays is Valentine's Day. It really became a favorite after Kinsley was born. It is just a fun day to have heart shaped things. During the week we made a Valentine's picture for the grandparents and cards for all the aunts. On Valentine's Day for breakfast (after I got off work) we had heart shaped pancakes. Kinsley was disappointed they weren't George pancakes (regular round) and Callie was sad I wouldn't let her eat any. Chris had to work at the flower show so the girls and I headed to Barnes and Nobel to pick out their Valentine's Day books. For lunch we had heart shaped pizza and heart shaped pink velvet cake. All this while wearing Valentine's day shirts and matching hats. So fun!

Yup, She's a cutie

Check out the little baby balloon!

2 Months!

She was not happy!

A few days late but much happier!

 I am trying so hard to cherish every minute I have with this little girl because it is going by so fast! The past month was busy again but starting to slow down now that the holidays are over and we are in a pretty set routine. I am finally starting to really enjoy Callie instead of just surviving each day.

In the past month Callie has been on two long trips. 

The first was to Galveston for Christmas vacation with my family. We flew there and stayed in a house right on the beach. It was gorgeous! A little chilly but still gorgeous. 

Early morning flight= Pj's!  They both did so good on the plane

Sunrise over the ocean from our back porch. So pretty!

Sunset from the front porch.

Callie's first time on a boat dolphin watching. 

Matching PJ's!

Setting out cookies for Santa

The second trip was a road trip to Colorado to visit Audrey... and Jessica and Chad too I guess :)  It is about a 9 hour drive and both girls did amazing! We stopped twice on the way there and only once on the way home! While we were there we went to an indoor water park and the Denver Zoo. Two "firsts" for Callie. It was a fast trip but worth it. 

Callie didn't really like the water. But look at that suite! Too cute!

Yup. Not happy.

Warm day at the Denver Zoo.

Cousin love!

Over Christmas Kinsley, Callie and I were all sick. I felt so bad for Callie, she looked miserable! She had a terrible cough, runny nose and a rash all over her face. Thankfully there were plenty of us around to give her extra cuddles.

She looks miserable! Poor girl.

I go back to work on Friday the 13th (of Feb) and also work on Saturday the 14th (Valentine's day). What a terrible weekend to go back to work! For some reason I feel like I might get more accomplished once I go back.
