Maybe I Should Change the Title to "Our Little Coven" :)

Well, Bella must have soaked up some of the Twilight Saga that I read over and over while I was pregnant. She decided to pop out her "vampire teeth" before the other top ones. That kid cracks me up. It's so funny when she does her scrunchy smile and those teeth show.

We are starting to plan for her first birthday. It's exciting and sad at the same time. I'm going to miss her as a baby, but it's so fun seeing her grow up. We are thinking about doing a Rainbow Brite themed party. That was my favorite doll when I was little. :) I can't wait to see her face when she gets into her cake!

Our little angel face is really on the move. She is so close to walking and she is always dancing. There is no doubt she is going to be a talented young lady. Of course, I am not being bias. :)


She is really eating up her "modeling" for Jeannie. Bella definately knows how to pose. It cracks me up how much she already knows how to play it up.


Bella is such a clever little girl. She tries to help with laundry and even unloads some of the silverware for me. She is always so proud when she finishes. Nothing makes me happier than that smile of accomplishment she gets.


Jamie wanted me to throw in that he is awesome. He is such a guy. Lol.


I am really getting excited for Bella's first birthday. It is sad that she is getting out of that baby stage, but it's so fascinating to watch her grow. She is the best thing that could have ever happened to us!

Fourth of July


Bella and I took a little trip, for the Fourth, to visit some family. It was really nice to see everyone and get away for a while. Bella was finally able to meet most of Peters family. She had such a blast. She was a great sport in the car. It was quite a drive. Luckily she slept most of the way. Once we got there, she had her first boat ride. She didn't really like the life vest, but she liked it once we started moving. She just kept licking the air. :)
It was so great to just take it easy for a few days. There were alot of firework shows all around the lake and we could see them from the porch. Bella made friends with her cousins, especially J.P. She thought he was great. Her aunt Emily made red, white and blue headbands. Bella was so adorable in them. We did hit one bump in the road when the car broke down. Luckily it was something that was fixable and we were able to stay another day! All in all it was a great holiday.
