Take 2

Bella is seriously a champ. We noticed something on her side, what we thought was dirt on her. Turns out it was a BB shot wound that had clumped over. So we took her to the vet...to our surprise there were two BB shots wounds. Normally they just let them heal on their own but with her still sick from 2 weeks ago, she is having a hard time fighting off the infection it caused. Bella did not even seem bothered by it at all. Turns out we had to file a complaint with the police. They came out with the CSI unit and a detective. They even found a foot print plus some pretty obvious evidence. Looks like whomever it was, got up on top of our water meter and pelted Miss Bella. Needless to say they are about 99% sure that they knew who did it. She never barks and minds her own business. The kids were just being mean which just make it even more awful.

5 Months Old

Our little one has turned 5 months old! I think I say it every time, but time does fly by so quickly. She was super cooperative today so I just took some shots of her playing around.

She can almost sit up unsupported; I say by end of the month she will be on her own. So far she has tried eating avocados, bananas, apples and sweet potatoes. She likes all of them but really loves the sweet potatoes and apples. Up next are peas and squash. She still loves her bath time and even tries to drink out the the cup like mommy and daddy drink out of cups. She is really starting to mimic things we do. I know they do not know what they are saying yet, but whenever she cries she cries out "DADDY." Clear as day! Waiting for him to come rescue her. I can not believe daddy's little girl starts so early.

On another note, we started back up with our Kindermusik classes, baby rhyme times and sing along classes. She is tuckered out come end of day.

I love this picture. I could not stop laughing. She just leaned over and struck a pose!

LIttle Miss Independent

Since bumpers these days are not reccommended we went with a breathable bumper. Well little one thinks it is a leg rest. No matter how high I put it or where I move her she finds her way back over the the "leg rest." She also has developed this cute little habit of crossing her legs like a little lady.







This morning little one was eating her mashed up avocados and got a streak of independence in her. She was trying to feed herself! She has been trying for the last few days but finally got it right. Our little baby is just 5 months (well in a week) and learning so quickly.





On another note...Bella is home and doing great! The doctor could not believe she is doing so well. Most animals that eat that toxin from the plant go to doggy heaven pretty quick. Bella officially is a medical marvel with a cast iron stomach!!! She has even been up to going on the 1.5 mile walk every morning.

Happy Memorial Day!

I can not believe one year ago today, we found out we were going to have a baby! Time really does fly. Hope everyone had a great day.

Bella Baby

Sweet Bella is sick. Yes her tummy finally got her into trouble. She ate a type of palm tree which is super toxic and has been at the vet since Friday afternoon. Her prognosis is not good, but we were given a little bit of hope so we will take it. We went to visit her on Saturday and she seemed in good spirits. But it was really sad to see her hooked up to an IV. Of course it is a long weekend so we will not know until Tuesday morning if we can take her home. Oh Bella....

Playtime+Fun=Naptime

Little one discovered she can sit up by herself for a brief moment today!!! With the new "trick" she really loved playing with some new toys we got today. She was all tuckered out.

And yes those little legs are as kissable and cute in person!

Beach Baby

We made it to the beach finally! Baby girl loved the beach and in true infant fashion as everything goes in the mouth....naturally the sand went straight into the mouth. She got her first taste of salt water when a mini wave crashed up against her. Oh and she did great on the plane. Not one peep!

Don't they both looked thrilled to take this picture!

Her little back looks so cute in a swimsuit!!!

Talk about kissable little lips

She loves her Uncle Sean!
