sweet adi.

{sweet: AKA...attitude}

My sweet little Adi is the cutest little thing.  She is the baby of her family with so much personality.  She also LOVES her cousin Roma and gives lots of hugs and kisses.  Sometimes a little too much!  Adi is so used to being the princess and 'baby' in the family she has shown a little jealousy with Roma but is still SO sweet to her!  I took Addison shopping with me yesterday and she wanted EVERYTHING..well mostly just sparkly shoes and dresses.  She was happy to walk away with this...

Yesterday I had Adi over for a play date but I think secretly she only wanted to come over because I have binkis floating around my house! Adi is almost 4 and hasn't had a binki since she was 2 but she is still obsessed with holding things and just getting what she wants.  I am not sure if she really wanted a binki or if it was just the quest of getting it!  Well, come to find out she really LOVES that binki.  Let's just say her mom and dad weren't too happy with aunt whitney!

We took her home last night and she fell asleep with the binki in her mouth!  It was priceless!  Hmm, I wonder if she still has that binki!!

I love these girls more than they will ever know!

dear kiley.

I just have to say that I have he most adorable, sweet, innocent, lovable, honest, kind, beautiful, best friend and niece in the entire world!  Kiley is my best friend and just adores 'baby Roma'.  When Kiley was a baby I would beg my sister to let me have her over for girl dates.  We would go shopping and get pedicures...both of which Kiley would choose!  She is so girly and I love it.  Kiley has the biggest heart of any 7 year old I have been around.  She naturally cares about other people and kids she is around.  Kiley is so good with Roma and already thinks she is old enough to babysit!!  I can't wait until Kiley is older and can travel with us and take care of her sweet cousin!

Kiley is our natural little poser.  She loves the camera...can't you tell!  What a beauty!

How can you not LOVE this girl?!

Kiley, thank you for the being my best friend and for loving Roma.

sitting up.

This is our new trick of the week.  Roma starting sitting up on her own.  She can balance pretty well and we have only had a couple falls...but don't worry I was there to catch her! Roma is the happiest baby I have EVER been around.  She has the sweetest little spirit about her.  We couldn't be more happy!

milestones.

We are having a lot of milestones happening at our house lately!  I have to say I never knew being a mommy would be so rewarding and exciting.  I adore Roma and love watching her grow and change every day.  She started rolling over last week and it is the cutest thing!  She can only go one way but I am sure before too long she will be rolling all over the house.  Ohhh I just love this girl!

november 2009.

I am so behind with blogging and lots of firsts have been happening for us.  Roma is getting so big and loves to hang out in the BUMBO!  We just adore her and cherish every single second we are with her!  She is changing so fast and although it is so fun to see her do and learn new things we want it to last much longer....so here is a preview of our november!

Roma went to her first jazz game to watch cousin Kiley dance and half-time!  It was super loud but she loved all of the flashing lights!  I think there will be many more jazz games in her future!

Roma has always loved tummy time...but this was the first time she popped her head up for the camera! I thought it was the cutest thing ever!  

 

We spent Thanksgiving with my family this year.  It was wonderful to have all of {or most of} my aunts and uncles and cousin in town from Oregon and California!  We were always doing something fun and had a FABULOUS dinner at my moms...thanks mom!
