65/365 (March 6) Exersaucer

Grace has loved her Jumperoo at home since we got it for her as a Christmas present. She has recently started to enjoy the exersaucer that my mom has at her house, too. It is quite funny, though, because she tries to jump and bounce in it like she does at home... but it isn't designed to do that. She is determined to get it to do so one of these days, anyway :)

A little early morning exersaucer action. You can tell she isn't quite fully awake in these pictures.... she looks so cuddly!
Aww...there is the happy baby smiles!
And look at how much more curly her hair got over night!


64/365 (March 5) Curly-Q

My mom gave Baby Girl a bath the other day and let her hair dry on it's own, something this Mama admits to rarely doing. Considering it has been a while since I have done this myself, I hadn't realized just how curly her hair really is getting. Mom snapped a few pictures for me - to gently remind me of how cute her hair is on it's own, without bows or barettes or headbands.

Look at Mama's pretty girl!
Just call me "Curly-Q."
And for the record, Mom, I get it. I will start letting her hair do it's own thing on occasion. You were right...and I don't say that often!

63/365 (March 4) The Side Eye...

A certain little someone is starting to develop quite the little attitude. I wonder where she gets it from? Certainly not her mother, right?

Here she is giving me the side-eye as if to say, "Another picture, Mama? Really?"

62/365 (Mar 3) Look Who Rocks 2 Bows Now!!

I was pleased to discover the other day that Grace has enough hair for two adorable pony-tails. And of course, where there is a pony-tail, a bow can't be too far behind :)

Even more pleasing than seeing my adorable baby with her two new bows, was seeing her with a great big smile!!

I had to compromise and trade my cell phone for her cooperation!


I love to play the game of "guess what the baby would be saying if she had a speech bubble attached to this photo." To me, this one looks like she is thinking/saying, "Are you talking to me!?"



61/365 (Mar 2) Catching up on Zzzzz's!!

It feels so good to sleep in your own bed!!

Grace fell asleep last night and hardly even stirred. She was out by 8 and didn't wake to eat until 3:45. Then she ate, and slept again until 7:30! The week spent in the hospital had really caught up to her I think.
An exhausted baby + a comfy crib = a great night of sleep for baby and Mama!

60/365 (Mar 1) Silly JoJo

After arriving home from the hospital, we were excited to discover that the tutu and matching poof headband I ordered for Grace's 6 month photo shoot had arrived. I put it on her, over her warm outfit she was wearing just to get an idea of how it fit. I can't wait for her photo shoot next week - you'll have to wait in suspense with me to see just how cute it is!
Eskimo kisses from JoJo:

Silly JoJo wanted to see how Grace would react if she tried it on herself. Since it is made to fit a 6 month old baby, this is the only way JoJo could "wear" it:


Grace thought she was quite the sight and couldn't help but stare. Who can blame her?!
