Picture Post

Most of these have been on Instagram, but here are a few pictures from the last few weeks!

Precious baby curl...
Georgia Kate and I went to play with her friend Penelope!
Just reading up on her birthday buddy and admiring his smocked wardrobe...
"Mommy, put these (spaghetti noodles) on your head and sing Pop Goes the Weasel!"
We went to get our first snow cone of the season!
Reid's perfect day was watching the cars at the carwash and eating popcorn. 
Sassy!
We got to meet Craig Robert!
Georgia wore blue to meet her new friend.
Chris blew up the new inflatable pool and this boy had a BLAST!

This is what Daddy put our sweet girl in for her first "swim"!  I couldn't stop laughing!  Mommy promised to put her in proper swim attire and accessories next time!  
Just enjoying an ice cream sandwich :)
I love having a little boy.  
We went back to play with Clara and Craig again!  
Friends for 25 years and now we each have two babies.  We love this family!
We have lots and lots of twin friends!  Georgia Kate got to have her very own playdate with these two sets of handsome boys!  Usually she just tags along to Reid's playdates. :)
I love this picture!

Georgia Kate is 9 months old!

Well, here we are!  9 months old (as of yesterday)! This update is going to be short and sweet.  I don't have a lot of new things to report, but our biggest change of the month is that baby girl is MOBILE!  Ready or not, here she comes.  She got moving on Easter and hasn't stopped since!  She has her own little crawl that involves pulling herself with her arms, pushing with one leg, and dragging the other leg.   She goes from laying down to sitting easily and she is really trying to pull up!  Poor thing has already taken quite a few tumbles just from attempting to pull up. :(  Reid's world has really changed now that sister is on the go!  He's turned into quite the little police officer, alway reporting to me what Georgia is doing or where she's going.  I have to say that I've been really proud of how well he's handled the fact that she can get into all of his toys now.  He's usually so sweet and picks out a couple of his toys for her to play with (even if it is to deter her from the ones he doesn't want her to play with).  This girl hit the big brother jackpot! :) 


Georgia Kate has been a little fussier than normal this month, which I will just blame on teething.  When she is having a "moment" we can almost always solve the problem by taking her out to swing in the backyard or putting her in the stroller for a walk.  She loves to be outside.  Our girl is definitely very opinionated, spunky, and silly!  We love to figure out new ways to make her laugh.  She has the best laugh!  We just love everything about her.  Oh, and those sweet little curls that are popping up all over her precious little head are too much for me to handle! I LOVE THEM!

9 month stats:
Weight: 21 lb 4.8 oz (91%)
Height: 29 1/4 in (96%)

 Here is our little peach at her 9 month check up!


Also, her new carseat came in today, so this is a picture of her last car ride in her infant seat. :( While I am sad that she is growing up so quickly, I am hoping that the carseat switch will result in more peaceful car rides for all. :)

Georgia Kate, we love you so very much!  You light up our lives!

Easter 2014

We had a wonderful Easter weekend with lots of family time!  On Friday we went to Smiley for a crawfish boil and to celebrate Easter with Chris' family.  There was fishing (it was Reid's first time to fish), riding around the property, egg hunting, playing, Easter baskets, and eating!  Everyone had a great time!  


He loves pockets. :)






I just love this picture of Georgia looking at her daddy!
My bunnies...

On Saturday we dyed Easter eggs!  
Georgia Kate was a good spectator.  I think she might look a tad like her daddy, but I'm not sure. ;)
Easter Baskets!  They each got a personalized plate, a beach towel, a book, a toy, and a snack.  

Pictures before church went like this...


After church we went to my parents' house for Easter brunch, playing, and more egg hunting!  Pictures after church were more successful.  I couldn't narrow it down. :)
Reid wore the same outfit that he wore to my sister's wedding.  Mumsie made both kids' Eater outfits.  Thanks you, Mumsie!

Look closely because it's rare to see Georgia without a bow!  I decided I wanted to go for the non-bow look in the pictures.  


She seriously ADORES him.  


Nice...





I just love these pictures of my baby doll looking through her basket at Mumsie and Poppies' house!


Wardrobe change!



Happy Easter!  HE IS RISEN!
