Our First Thanksgiving

 

 

 

 

I felt like our first Thanksgiving was a success, thanks to my Mom, Aaron and my Aunts, Cousins, sisters and, of course, Nana. There was no way to have done this without their help. Luella was quite a tropper too. She slept in the sleepy wrap just in time so momma could eat...and I must say it was yummy! Thanks everyone, can't wait until next year.

Christmas Toes

 

Sneak Peak

Today CharlaBlue came to the house to do a mini photo session with lu....I pulled out my camera too and got this "behind" the scenes shot! As soon as she blogs more from that day, I will share! If you are looking for a photographer to get some shots for you for the holidays, she is the one to book.

Our Weekly Photo Session

As always, click on photo to see it bigger.

I love taking pictures of lu, I have tons. I guess that comes with motherhood, along chopping off my hair, one hand typing, and the purchase of a minivan yesterday. My subaru didn't do us much good anymore, since in order to get the carseat in the back of the car you have to move the front passenger seat all the way up and erect...not even a christmas elf could fit in the front seat anymore.
Some of Lu's newest...she sucks her tongue with a some force now, you can actually her the sucking. She discovered her feet today during our photosession. She couldn't take her eyes off of them. She loves the sleepywrap and so does mom! She is starting to coo up a storm. When she sighs she nays like a horse. After a yawn she makes a sound like daffy duck. And when she is tired she sqwuaks like a bird. Her Pop's goal is to give her 100 kisses a day and get her ready for bath time...one of her faves!

The Tongue

 

In case you haven"t meet her yet, Luella is always sticking out her tongue. Maybe it doesn"t fit in her mouth good...not sure, but Lu is in for it. Everyone already sticks there tongue out at her, wait until she knows what she is doing!

Say Cheese

 

So the little one is discovering her fingers and thumbs more and more daily. She also loves everything cheap! All the expensive gear that I have she doesn't like, so to replace things like cars seats is not easy to decide or spend the money on so, I just go with the least expensive one to make my decision. She seems to like all the cheaper stuff better. Good, for Christmas in years to come it will be all about the $.99 Store! She is smiling more and more everyday. She is starting to be like every baby and gets a little fussy in the evenings. My favorite part of the day is from 6am - 7am when she sleeps like a pitch fork on my chest! We are taker her out and about more, she loves to take in the world as long as she doesn"t have to do it from the car, or while tired or hungry. Finally, she loves when her pop tickles her as well as give her millions of baby kisses. Oh yeah, and she loves, loves, loves sticking her tongue out of mouth.

{Happy 1 Month}

 

Luella is one month old and is weighing over 11 pounds. Needless to say she is a little eater. She is also some what of a nap fighter but I can't complain because she is a good little sleeper during the night...she wakes me up twice to eat and (usually) goes right back to sleep. She love her little bouncer chair and her woodland friends, orange head, yellow monster and owl friend (yeah, not sure!). She is not kken on the car seat, the swing, the pacifier or anything gimicky, but would needs all those soothers when you have a tongue to suck! Yes, this liitle sucks her tongue or usially just sticks it out to let you know what she thinks of you. She is starting to coo, and suck her fingers. Se also farts so loud that often is wakes me and pop up in the middle of the night. Our big outings of the first month was the pumpkin patch, Becky's Halloween Party, George's Greek Cafe, and Church. Many strangers think she is a boy, that is most likely due to her sweet faux hawk thst she was born with. That's ok she is stil my pretty girl!
