Happy Birthday Mama

Yesterday I celebrated my 29th birthday.  It was a good birthday but the last one before the big 30!  Everyone kept reminding me of that.  Anyways, everyday when I leave for work I wave bye-bye to Arlee hoping she will someday wave back.  She did!! On my birthday, so that was a great start to my long day at work.  After work we just had pizza and cake at the house with my family.  Tonight Arlee is staying with Grandma and Grandpa ALL NIGHT!!  This isn't the first time, she had stayed with them when she was about 1 or 2 months old only because we were trying to move and were a little sleep deprived.  This time will be nice because I am going out with the girls, and Wayco is going to hang out with the guys.  I don't get out much these days compared to what I used to, so I am really excited.  I get excited to do the smallest things anymore.   I just hope I don't end up missing little Arlee Bear and not having a good time, because I tend to do that.

Happy Valentines Day

It's Valentines and Arlee's 7 month birthday today! We had a little photo session this morning, but Arlee didn't want to smile all she would do is stick her tongue out. That dang tongue is always out it seems!! I tried everything to get a no tongue smile, but nothing worked.

Arlee is growing like a weed.

New sleeping schedule

For the past three weeks or so we have a new sleeping schedule that I can't complain about.  Arlee is sleeping from about 7:30-8:00pm til about 8:00-8:30am!!  This is so nice.  She used to get up around 6:00am eat and snooze a little afterward, I don't miss that at all!  We are all a little happier with more zzz's!
