Photo shoot

We decided to have a little photo shoot

today at the park. Jay was working so we did a little shopping and pictures- some of my favorite things. The pictures turned out really cute...

 

16 weeks

My sweet girl is 16 weeks old. In the first picture, this is her flirty face and I absolutely love it. She will put her head down and just smile and smile. 

I didn't take her picture on weeks 14 and 15. Those were rough weeks at our house. Jaylie decided not to sleep- Monday through Thursday. I.was.exhausted. I pulled to Mom and Dads one morning at 6:25 and looked like a hot mess. When they saw me, in a panicked voice they said, " What is wrong??"

Umm, Jaylie didn't go to sleep until 10 and was up at 3 am. And she had not slept good all the other nights. I was done. So, I got ready there in 15 minutes and went to teach my kiddos. 

Jaylie made up for sleep by going to bed at 6:30 on Friday night and 4 on Saturday. She was so tired from no sleep!!

She has also discovered her feet...

She went to Oxfordfest wearing this and left with only her onesie- it was so hot. 

Uncle Josh and Jaylie were exhausted...

She attended her first funeral and was very quiet- I was so proud:)

Happy Fall

This little candy corn looks so cute I could eat her up. 

She turned 3 months on Wednesday, September 18th. 

She was tired and this was the best I could get. 

She went to her first ever CHS game. Looking quite cute in her blue jeans, bow and shirt. Jaylie definitely loves to watch people. She stayed awake during most of the game and watches the band with her eyes bugged out.

Went to Reese' 3rd birthday party Saturday. Love all these kiddos!

Miss Priss was up at 4 am on Sunday and never did go back to sleep. I was exhausted. 

4 generations.... Geraldine, Christi, Jay and Jaylie

This really makes me miss my grandparents. Especially Grandmother and Granny. I would love to see my grandmothers with Jaylie. 

I think Granny would have never thought that Daddy would be keeping Jaylie. Grandmother would say she looks like me and Mother. I know they see her though. Jaylie's hands remind me of Grandmother:)

Thankful for a good weekend with friends and family. 

11 Weeks old

Sweet thang is 11 weeks old. She gave me the sweetest present today- she didn't cry on the way home. It. Was. A.Miracle. Really, it was the first afternoon since we've been driving back and forth that she didn't scream. 

Had a little photoshoot today. 

My loves......

My little cupcake and I In Burger Quick

2 months old

August 18th Jaylie turned two months old.

She wore this really cute outfit to church. 

Jaylie was good during church. She also ate at Partners for the first time and saw lots of family members: Dale and Frances, Rose, Terry, Amy, Tina, Patricia, Billy, Brenda and Theron. 

She also met Maw Maw Headrick! Jaylie loved her:)

Jaylie- your 2 months and 1 day old here. This is after my first day of school. 7:55 and we are both in our pajamas. Momma is tired but I hope you know how much I love and miss you all day while I'm at work. I try not to think about all the sweet faces, kisses and moments I'm missing. I just hope you always know that I work because I love you. Formula and diapers are pretty important

8 weeks and 7 weeks

Jaylie is 8 weeks old. 

We had to take her picture one day late because we were both too tired yesterday to do it and she was a little ill. 

Look at this face. I am so so thankful God gave this little face for me to love on. 

Here she is at 7 weeks. That's the best I could get out of her. 

Jaylie went on her first camping trip to Wind Creek. We love wind creek and we went for one night. Just one and we had a truck load full of stuff. A pen wouldn't have fit in that truck. So funny.....

Jay and I just wanted to try camping and see how it was and we really just needed to get out of the house.

Look very hard at this picture. Jaylie was bouncing in her seat on the picnic table while we cooked supper. Well, she was cooking up a special present of her own. She never made a sound but after a while I started to notice a brown spot underneath the fish. Yes, there is was. All over her and her outfit. It was the worst one she has ever had and saved it for camping. That's my girl. 

It resulted in me stripping her down on the picnic table, getting in my bathing suit and carrying my covered in poop baby to the shower house where she got her first shower with me. She didn't know what to think about it and I was exhausted when it was all over. 

This was coming home from Wind Creek. She sweats so much that I took off her clothes until we stopped for lunch.

We stopped to eat and I put her cupcake outfit on her. Look at the difference. It breaks my heart to see how much she has grown. I cried and cried all the way home from Wind creek about going back to work.  I continued to cry all weekend. Especially Sunday. I was very upset all day. And I just wanted to hold my baby all day. I didn't get to either:(

Blue is baby girls color I think. This was the day before she would start Gandaddy daycare.

After our first day apart..

Scruff is jealous!!

So I made it through leaving her this week. It still hurts though. I am so blessed that she is staying with family and making memories with her Gandaddy but I sure hate leaving her so early in the day. It is nice to rush down there everyday so I can see that sweet smile.!
