Bailey

Bailey has been doing so many fun things lately that I thought I would share a few with you. This last weekend Kyle's parents came down to stay with us and Sunday night Kyles dad was putting Bailey to bed and was telling her a story while she was laying there and she looked up at him and said,"Papa its time to be quite, its nigh nigh time!" Paul said OK good night and came out laughing. How cute is that!?! I have never thought Bailey to be in the "terrible twos" status but at times I would qualify her more as "sassy seconds." Her favorite thing to tell me when I am in her "bubble" is leave me alone mom! I know SO sassy! Luckily its not that often and usually when she is tired. I have been trying to teach her a better way to communicate her feelings when she is bugged. So now she says leave me alone mom please... well its a step in the right direction anyways! Really though she is usually a very fun and loving girl. She loves Sophie (so far) and has never been mean to her she is always trying to give Sophie her "B" (her blanket that she loves) and her toys. She is always looking out for her too. If Kyle has Sophie and I am in the other room and Sophie starts to cry she will run into the room and say, " Mom, Sophie needs you! Shes crying!" and then she runs back to Kyle and says, "its okay Mommy's coming!" I have to laugh a little but I am glad that she thinks mommy can fix anything. For some reason she calls me mom-mom. The other day I asked her a question and she said, "you betcha mom-mom!" She loves to sing her current favorites are the snowman song (that's what she was sing in the pictures below were she is dancing) the Itsy Bitsy spider and the ABC song which she sings ABC, LMNOP, ABC, LMNOP over and over again. She loves to count she was counting everything as 2,9,6 but now she usually counts to five and then adds her own style after that. She LOVES Dora and Diego which I don't know about you but I just can get enough of those shows... :) One thing that has always amazed me about little kids is how easily they become friends. We were at the park the other day and it was just us and another random little girl Baileys age and Bailey came up to me and said, mom she play with me? I said sure go tell you want to play so she went up to her and said "come on, I show you!" and they were best friends after that until it was time to go home. The other day Kyle was taking a nap with Bailey and he got a text message and his phone rang like a door bell and Bailey completely asleep said, "ding dong" and then went back to sleep. Okay so can you tell I love my daughter? She does something that makes me smile everyday and I am so lucky to have her!

New Pictures!

All Better!

We went to the Doctor on Thursday and she said everything looks good! Unfortunately this meant she got her immunization shots. Which if you don't know I have a slight fear of needles even after having two babies I still cant seem to get over it. I made Kyle take Bailey for all of her shots I was with them, well actually I was out in the hall, I was with them in spirit. This is the second time Sophie has had shots and I have had to go alone both times because of Kyles schedule. The first time I didn't even try I just told the guy sorry and stood across the room looking away while he did it. This time I told myself to be strong and that Sophie needs me and I was going to hold her and be there for her... until the nurse walked in with the needles. Just looking at them made me sick to my stomach and I got lightheaded and had to sit down. I know my 3 year old nephew can handle needles better then I can! I don't know what the deal is! One of these days she is going to be too big and need some one to hold her well lets just hope Kyle can be there that day!

Gean Luke who is the Lincoln county nurse gave Bailey a round of her shots while we were living out in Pioche for the summer Kyle had an internship out there. She coincidentally gave me my senior shots... lets just say it was a memorable day. When we walked in she smiled at me and said I remember you, maybe you should just wait out here! I guess we all have our kryptonite.

Okay so she has crazy eyes in this picture but I still think its cute! We are so blessed the girls are doing so well!

Catching up!

Wow where to begin, I am soo far behind. First off Sophie is now officially 4 months old! Crazy I know she just grows and grows!

We went to Pioche for the weekend to trade cars, Kyle borrowed the truck for a scout camp out. The girls had a lot of fun and they love being spoiled by their papa and Nana!

Well while we were there Sophie starting coughing, no fever, she was still eating, sleeping and smiling. I was a little worried but was hoping for the best. Her four month appointment was on Monday so I took her in not knowing what to expect...and well she has RSV! Scary!!! I think we caught it soon enough that it hasn't been too bad. So far I have been able to keep her out of the hospital. My mom came down for a couple days to help me keep my sanity. Thank you soo much mom! Bailey has started getting sick too, plus she is cutting some molars, great timing but she is still pretty bubbly at least during the day at night is another story!

Sophie has to do breathing treatments, she handles it pretty well.

I have Bailey do a saline solution one to help and two so she doesn't feel neglected.
We love grandma!

We really are doing well and the girls are on the mend, I hope... we are so gratful.

Happy Valentines Day

For Valentines Kyle took the girls to build a bear. It was a lot of fun! Bailey picked out a puppy, big surprise there she is obsessed with dogs right now! So we pick out a kitty cat for Sophie, in truth it was the one I liked the best.

Triumph!!! I finally got a picture of Sophie smiling, it took both Kyle and I to do it! SO cute!

The girls!

Bailey wasn't really cooperating, she has crazy eyes in this picture but it was the best I could get, she wouldn't look at the camera.

I love my sisters, they are so much fun and they are my best friends! I am so glad that Bailey and Sophie have each other and I hope they can always be good friends too!

Just a couple more...

Okay I just had to add a couple more. I just took them and I thought they were cute.

Sophie is three months old!

Can you believe that she is three months old already. I tried and tried to get a picture of her smiling and every time the camera would flash she would stop smiling and just stare at it. She really smiles a lot on a regular basis though, she is a really happy baby.
