Daycare Photos

Here are the pictures taken at daycare earlier this month. I had no idea how they would turn out since 99% of the time I can not get her to look at the camera to save my life. I used my camera and took pictures of the actual portraits so I could post them on the blog for Grandparents to see.

She wasn't looking during this one but I bought it regardless since it showed her whole outfit.Blue Eyed Girl My favorite! NO idea how they got MY child to sit so perfectly still AND got her to smile all at the same time. BRILLIANT!When I went to pick them up the photographer laid them all out for me to see. I immediately gasped and said "oh my baby". He then said "There' no signs of baby in these photos". :(

Way Back WHENsday-October 2007

Baylee was just 3 months old her first Halloween. We didn't trick or treat but I couldn't resist buying a costume. At the Pumpkin Patch

Late Saturday afternoon Baylee, Maw Maw Dot, and I went to the park. Poor Bay had been cooped up in the house for the past 2 days with a low grade fever and a funky cough. It was cool outside but not cold and I was pleasantly surprised when we got there and it wasn't overly crowded.

My B loves the swing. We literally pushed her for 20 minutes or so before she was willing to get out and move onto something else. Finally out of the swing!

It was nice being at the park and not worrying about bigger kids running her over!Poor ducks!Feeding the ducks a piece of bread that a nice lady gave to Baylee. I forgot to grab a few pieces before leaving the house.

Flashback Friday!

Little Mess Maker

Baylee has a certain spot on the kitchen counter that she likes to sit while I make prepare and cook dinner.....the few nights a week that I do cook :).Sunday night I was cooking dinner and I put Baylee in her spot. She then decided to stand up on the counter-top and pull out EVERY bit of tupperware in the cabinet. We also have a drawer in our kitchen that is "Baylee friendly". Most things in that drawer we don't even use but keep them anyway so Baylee has something to occupy her time while cooking or doing dishes.

YAY it's FALL!

I am LOVING this weather that we are having...not counting the never ending rain we seem to be getting on a daily basis.

I picked up some pumpkins this weekend. They were a big hit with Baylee. Our front entry still seems bare but I LOVE the wreath that a friend made for me.We went for a walk Monday evening. My sweet angel baby! Man I love her!

Wordless Wednesday

Walden's Farm 2009

Bright and early Saturday morning, literally 8:00 AM, Baylee and I headed to LaVergne. Alison's mom was visiting from Virginia and we all had plans to take the kids to the Pumpkin Patch. It was COLD and muddy outside from all of the rain that we have been getting over the last couple of weeks. I got to the end of my street and turned back to go get Baylee's rubber boots. So glad I did!

Alison told me she wanted to ride to her local library. They were having a book sale and she wanted to check it out before heading over to Walden's Farm. While Alison was loading two HUGE boxes of books into my trunk me and the kids hung out in the car. Me and AverlyPoor baby is recovering from a funky cold and ear infectionLast year when we went to Walden's Farm the kids were too little to do the maze. Not this year. Although Ray had to do it along with them.

This one is SOOO hard to take pictures of these days! I don't think I got one single picture of her looking at the camera the entire day.Baylee LOVED all of the animals. I swear I could send her to live on a farm and she would be happy as a can be. Me on the other hand not so much!She wanted me to put her IN the pin with the cows! Yeah.....NNNNNO!Baylee's favorite animal was the "cow" (goats) I tried many many times to tell her they were goats but she was having none of it. In her eyes they were COWS!

Picking out her pumpkinWow Mom this is HEAVY!She had to show the "cows" her pumpkin! Suckers for good behavior :)Trying to get both kiddos to look at the camera and smile for me...TAKE 1Take 2Take 3Take 78Close enough! Al and I with our baby girlsI was very proud of Baylee. She is normally down between 11:30-12:00 for a nap. However on this day it was after 2:00 when we left and headed home. 10 minutes later. Notice the orange tint to her lips from the sucker :)
