January 2k15

at this point in Prim's life, most of the pictures i took of her were her looking cute in her outfit of the day since that's pretty much all she could do.

i got this little outfit out just in time! katie got it for easter thinking i'd have a little baby like hers. nope! her happy easter (with a bunny on the bum!) fit three months early.

i got two gender neutral shirts at my baby shower that said things like 'just arrived'. a couple weeks before she was born, i returned them and got a different gender neutral shirt and this very girly shirt.

little booties from her great grandma woodbury! she wore those all the time.

dressed up for church.

sitting out back with the puppies. it is so beautiful here.

her two month check up!!!! she is such a little dolly.

10 pounds 6 ounces, 95th percentile for height and 25th for weight!

she started smiling a lot around this time and i loved it so much.

my watch from jon when he graduated!!!!! it was lost for 5 months and jon thought it was gone for good but i kept praying it was around here somewhere. we were cleaning behind our bed and he found it on a box behind the bed. i am so happy!

can you even?? she is simply pleasant.

lizzie and i decided to train for a 5k together. we worked out together in different states when i lived in california and it actually helped to have a motivator. this was day one of my couch to 5k and it was hard and felt amazing!!!! i am so proud of my body. i kept thinking "if my doctors could see me now."

jon and i are part of a museum club and they were having a picasso event a night jon was at school so we decided to go. everyone there complimented me on how well behaved Prim was the entire night. the picasso pieces were enormous tapestries paid for by Rockefeller which don't sound interesting but actually really were. they filled up the wall floor to ceiling and prim would just stare at all the colors. 

hehe i always thought she looked like baby grinch when she would cry. once we started feeding her formula, she only cried when we would burp her halfway between her bottles. rarely ever any other time.

we went on lots of walks together for fresh air and exercise. she looked particularly lovely this day in her little summer outfit.

Primmy's little area of of our room (while packing for dallas):

we bought her furniture at ikea a couple months before she was born and had so much fun putting it together! the pictures- top left: a frame i bought before she was born, middle top: another frame i bought before she was born knowing i wanted to frame her little feet. silver right: from jon's aunt karma and grandma (picture every month of her first year). two left pictures: funny little framed pictures that were in our bedroom growing up. middle: painting from nana (jon's mom) to primmy for christmas. middle right: a picture of my mom, who prim was named after (teresa). left bottom: painting amanda made me for christmas. it said "all is well." because my granny used to say that to us all the time. every time she wrote me a letter or ended the conversation on the phone she would say "and i hope all is well with you guys.." bottom middle: from kim bird! I am a child of God. Bottom right: a cross stitch kathy made for Prim with her blessing date on it! everything is so special to us.

the top of her wardrobe is covered with stuffed animals that people sent us and gifted prim. the chevron painting is from kaitlyn that was at my baby shower. the wood blocks are another gift from kim. the gold picture is one i bought right before she was born. a little girly, i'd say. ;)
pink piggy from lyndsi and silver from aunt karma and grandma. teddy from brittany that smells like a baby nursery!

this is the chalkboard mal made prim. it hangs above the dresser from my gran's house. and i put the picture of jesus there so that she could see him every day.

and to end, are you serious? here we are all ready for our 5 hour drive to dallas. i can't believe how beautiful she is.
