6 Month Photo Shoot

I finally got the pictures back from our 6 month photo shoot.  While I will say, I'm less than happy with them- here's a few:

Yesterday, marked Kinsley turning 7 months!  Can you believe it?  I vividly remember pacing back and forth in the living room, lying on our bed, and "floating" in the tub at the hospital.  Seems like it was just last week.

A couple of weeks ago was Mother's Day.  My first!  Friday, Primrose held their "Muffins for Moms" in the morning.  So I had the pleasure of taking my daughter in to school (usually Adam does).  Of course, as soon as I got my plate of mini-muffins, I had an admirer.  How could I not resist giving her a taste?   Once she got used to the texture, she LOVED them.  She had about 8 bites of my muffins!  I did not want to leave to go to work.

On a sadder note, our family lost an amazing, loving, and protective member this week.  My childhood dog (second childhood dog), Midnight went off to doggy heaven.  I don't think any one of us (or our neighbors) will forget him.  Whether it's geese, a red ball, or lightning, we will always have a part of Midnight with us.  I'd like to believe the past couple of days, these thunderstorms we've been having is him telling us that he's better off now.  It's going to be odd not seeing a black lab in my mom's backyard.

In just two more days, we will be on VACATION!!!!!  A much needed vacation for both Adam and I.  First true vacation in two years.  We're doing our annual beach trip with my mom.  This will be Kinsley's first REAL trip to the beach (in mommy's tummy doesn't count apparently).  I hope she enjoys it!  Cross your fingers for the long drive down there.  Mommy is super stressed about packing...

I need this vacation, it seems, more than ever.

Love is in the air

Well since the last post- I have been to Panama City for Ashley's bachelorette and to her wedding.  It was an absolutely beautiful wedding.  David and Ashley met at the most romantic place- Waffle House.  They had a waffle groom's cake with the WaHo syrup.  It was too cute.

Thanks to my mom for keeping Kinsley so we could go out and enjoy Ashley's wedding.

Ms. Kins now has her ears pierced! We went for her 6 month checkup on the 27th.   She weighed a little over 17lbs, was 27" long and healthy!  While I tried to get them done there- the doctor wasn't in that does it (I hoped to just piss her off in one visit instead of multiple times).  Well we went to the outlets Saturday to get some shopping done and I ended up getting them done at Claire's.  The girl made me feel really comfortable and she was due to eat anyways so I had the perfect opportunity to cheer her up after.

Hole 1

She had grabbed a couple's attention and was watching them

Its hard to capture the moment but we believe Kins has her first boyfriend.  Too bad he's on a DVD and is at least 6 years older than her (not allowed).  She just lights up and babbles when he comes on TV.  

I've gotten a kiddie pool and hope to play with Kins every weekend in it to get her accustomed to the water.  She absolutely loves it.  Here is her first time in the pool.  

The past week or so has been very busy for me.  Well not really but I've put off doing a lot thanks to the newest trend- Fifty Shades of Grey.  I finally gave into the hype and downloaded the books.  I don't normally read or enjoy fiction at least- I read all three books in just one week!  While I will admit, you have to keep an open mind- it really is a great story.  Once you get past the shock of the first book, books two and three are just amazing.  I recommend to any married couple.

In just 18 days, we'll be at the beach!
