Mya's First Thanksgiving

It's getting pretty chilly outside!

Mya learned how to bounce in her bouncer this weekend!

Ya Ya stayed overnight on Friday night.

Once Mya went to bed we played dominoes with mom, ashley, and nathan.

Mya and Her Daddy

I don't have very many pics of Mya and her pops, so thought I'd post one today. I also can't believe how big she looks in this picture!! They grow up so darn fast.

Mya is 4 mos old!

We have a mini photo shoot on Mya's monthly Birthdays. Here's her 4 month shots.

This is Mya and Cooper. Randy gave me Cooper for our first Valentine's Day together in the eighth grade. Cooper is now Mya's.

Mya loves this bear blankie that Keisha and James gave her. When I set it on her tummy she grabs it and hugs it and sucks on its nose!:)

After the photo shoot I thought it would be a good idea to put the tree up. What a pain in the a**! I forget how much work it is to put these things up every year! I didn't even take it down last year. I just took the ornaments off of it, threw a sheet over it and put it in a bedroom downstairs. Just lugging the darn thing up and putting the lighta and ornaments back on is a chore. I was sweating when I was done!

Sorry So Late! More Halloweenie!

Happy Halloweenie!!

Mya went as a butterfly. So precious. And I was "Miss Halloween." Yes, I made it up:)

Happy Halloween!!

Mya wore this cute little kitty cat outfit to daycare this morning. She looks so sad in this picture! She's going to be dressed up as a butterfly tonight, so look for lots of pictures of that hopefully tomorrow!

We - Are - Faaam-ily!

Mya loves to be read to already and I am so excited about it! She coos at the pictures and kicks and smiles as I read. She actually stares at the pages. It's so fun! And of course the whole family is part of it...including Bailey!

Feeding Mya is a family affair. Randy talks to her and keeps her happy while I shovel the food in. Yes, we have a system:)

This is my and Randy's 5 year anniversary weekend. We brought Mya to Ya Ya's in Minneapolis and Randy and I stayed in a hotel downtown and went to a comedy club. It was a blast. This is Sunday morning when we came to pick up Mya at Ya Ya's house in the big city:)

Yes, I'm Obsessed.

Okay, so I'm both obsessed with my new little girl and bestest friend and this blog. More pics for you today:)

This just looks to me like a "Yes I really am a Mommy now" picture:)

I wanted a nice picture of Mya and I, but she just wouldn't cooperate, she proceeded to start screaming after this was taken. And I don't mean crying, she has a "horror movie scream" that she uses when she wants to be picked up or done with something. It's pretty hilarious if you've heard it.

What can I say!

I'm 3 Months Old!!

Mya was 3 months old on Saturday and seems to be pretty happy about it:)

I LOOOOVE my Papasan Bouncer!!

Mya REFUSES to nap in her crib downstairs. But, she absolutely adores this bouncer and will nap in it for 2 hours. I took her blanket off her to snap this pictures because she had slid down and her legs are hanging off the end. She really is getting too big for it, but I just don't have the heart to take it away:)

Ooooh- Sttrreeetttcchh!
