The past few weeks have been flying by. It is so hard to believe that Libby is seven months old. So much has happened lately.

Libby got baptized in February and I also left her for the first time which was very tough to do. Jeremy did a great job while I was gone and I came home to a clean house and a happy baby. Mimi and NaNa helped out some while I was away. I know Jeremy appreciated it. Needless to say, I don't want to leave Libby again any time soon...she seemed to grow up so much in just a few short days.

One of my Christmas presents this year was a girl's trip to NYC. It was a ton of fun. We did so much shopping that not one picture was taken...so the only proof I have is some purses from Soho and lots of new clothes. It was nice to have some girl time and get some shopping done...any and everything I wore last summer was maternity or quite flowy - so my wardrobe was definitely in need of an update.

A long weekend in the big apple makes me appreciate southern hospitality, good food, and the cost of living in Memphis!
We are tired of this crazy weather and ready to be able to enjoy some time outside...hopefully we will get some sunshine this week and this snow will melt away.


Just before the big event, the girl can work a camera (when she wants to)...
All Bundled up!

Mary Lampton was very sweet and excited about her baby sister on the way.


Being social is tough work...

Apparently, my blogging habits are lacking and comments on my lack of blogging is the only thing that gets me in gear sometimes...especially lately.

Life seems to be 200 mph these days. Whoever said the month of February is the dull days after Christmas was not living in our household. Jeremy and I have both been busy at work. Jeremy has also began renovating our upstairs bathroom. Right now we are in the demo phase of it, and it's not pretty.

Libby is growing and changing everyday and she is so much fun. We recently had her six month vaccinations and check-up. She is in the 75th percentile for height...and 50th percentile for weight. We also experienced our first ear infection, which was not fun. On the up side, Libby loved the amoxicillan (pink bubble gum medicine) so medicating her was not an issue. On the down side, our sleeping through the night regressed a bit and she has been waking up for a little love from Mom and Dad

Trying my best to get a profile shot of this sweet face.
Check me out in my awesome new hat, its all the rage at my playgroup.
Sitting up like a big girl...
Mimi and Mom played beauty shop with me the other day.

no words necessary for this cuteness...

relaxing in my bubble bath after a long day of eating, sleeping, playing, and being loved on...its a hard knock life.

Practicing my couch potato skills...

Working on my heel-stretch and hamming it up for the camera.
