Some more pretty pictures

Santa

We took Lacey to have her photo taken with Santa. She was very interested in him. Cleve and I tried to get her to smile but she just looked at us and then at Santa.





After a couple of photos, Lacey became bored and more interested in her shoes than in Santa.

5 months old

Blue Eyes?

We are not sure where the blue eyes have come from.

Thanksgiving

What a week. We had a wonderful time. Lacey and I went to Georgia the Friday before Thanksgiving and Cleve and Cody met us there on Wednesday. It was great to spend 9 days with my parents. My brother Gary and his wife Laurie flew in. I have not seen them in forever and they had never met Lacey. My cousin Amy was also there. Lacey got to meet everyone, GG (great grandma), Brian and his children Mary and Hamilton, Gary and Laurie, and Cousin Amy. Here are a few photos of our trip.

On Sunday we went to church. My mom walked around letting everyone see her beautiful granddaughter.

This is GG.

Here is Lacey and Mary. Mary was very interested in Lacey. Anytime Lacey was taking a nap, Mary would go in the bedroom to check on her and then provide us with an update.

Here is Lacey and Hamilton. Hamilton was not very interested in Lacey other than the fact that she had no teeth. She called her Baby Lacey all week long.

Lacey and Brian.

Lacey and Gary. It took a lot of pushing from Laurie and me for Gary to hold Lacey. He was afraid because he thinks she is so small :) At least someone thinks Lacey is small. She weighed 16 pounds 4 ounces 3 weeks ago at her 4 month check up.

4 generations.

The whole gang minus the dogs :)

Too Cute

I had to share this right away. She is too cute. I was about to give Lacey a bath and asked Cleve to hold her while I ran the water. Cleve brought Lacey into the bathroom and sat her in the sink.

It has been a month so I better put some more photos on the blog :)

Hey everyone, Sorry it has been awhile. We have been busy. I am still struggling with being a working mom. Our baby sitter had a staph infection so Cleve and I were tag teaming for a week. That was crazy. I only have a few minutes because I am sure Lacey will wake up soon.

This is from tonight. I was doing laundry and Cleve took these. I have no clue. It is gob stoppers in the bag. She looks really cute.

November 10th

Lacey was really fussy this evening. I put her on her play mat and she was so unhappy. I decided to lay down with her. We had a great time. It was kind of neat under the little lights and toys.

The weekend before Halloween, we went to a party at Hyman's house. Since we are so original, we dressed up as LSU fans. Yes, I wore an LSU hat so you know I was in costume :)

October 27th

I love her bow. I can't wait for her to grow some more hair. I expected her to have a lot more than she has. She has the most gorgeous eye lashes and blue eyes. I am not sure if they will change.

Four months old - I can't believe it.

October 25th

Lacey's first ride in her big girl car seat.

Finally - A New Post

Sorry everyone. I have returned to work and hardly have a free minute. I tried to update the blog the other night while Lacey was napping. Unfortunately, she did not sleep long enough. I am trying again. This time she is sitting on my lap. Cleve had to take her half way through.


It is amazing how much she is growing.


Cleve bought Lacey this tiger at Sam's Club. I tried to get a cute photo of her and the tiger but it is so much larger than she is. Look at her little belly. On Tuesday Cody broke his collar bone. He fell while doing some skateboard trick off a ramp. He is doing fine and getting a lot of attention from the girls at school. He had a doctor's appointment today. I had them weigh Lacey while we were there - 16 pounds !!!!! I could not believe it.


October 12th


Lacey loves her Rainforest bouncer. She is finally big enough to enjoy it. I use to have to put a box under her so she could bounce.




October 12th

She will be bouncing and all of a sudden her eyes get heavy and she is asleep.



October 8th

When I get home from work I don't want to put her down.

September 25th

Mom came and looked after Lacey the week I went back to work. It was hard to leave her but I knew she was in good hands. I kind of enjoyed going back. I found it hard to talk. I was so use to talking in baby language. We have been very blessed to find an awesome babysitter for Lacey. I leave for work around 5:15am. Cleve gets Lacey ready in the morning and drops her off to the sitter at 10am. I pick her up at 3:15pm. The sitter is the sister-in-law of a friend of ours from church. My original sitter was not able to look after her. I found this out the week Lacey was born. I was so worried. Cleve and I checked out the local daycare. I cried when we left. I am so glad she is able to be at someones house. Lacey is the only child there other than the lady's 4 year old son who is in preschool.

Lacey loves to laugh and smile. I love to kiss her feet and she just smiles and jiggles. I love it.

September 18th

Unfortunately Lacey has become an LSU fan. (I have not been able to find any small Gator outfits on EBay.)

September 9th

Here Lacey is in her Bumbo. This seat is so awesome. She looks like she is the top to a birthday cake.

September 19th

But Cleve has found another use for the seat.



She has found her tongue. She loves to stick it out at us.

August 29th

I better run. Take care and God Bless.

Lacey's first pool party

Our neighbor's son had a pool party for his birthday. We took Lacey. She seemed to enjoy the water. The swimsuit Heidi bought her was too cute.
