Andrew 5 months old

Andrew is 5 months old now! We started rice cereal this month and he's trying to sit up more. Andrew has really found his voice, he babbles and then squeals as loud as he can! It's hilarious and he is so much fun!

Snow Again

It snowed again at our house! I measured 4 inches in our front yard and it's still coming down. I decided to build a little snowman and Andrew seemed to enjoy it.

4 months old

We have had a busy January so far. Andrew is now 4 months old. We went for his 4 month check up and is doing well, he weighs over 15 lbs. now! He is babbling and interacting so much more, it's tons of fun!

DeDe had a Sip and See for us at her house last weekend

Andrew was baptized last Sunday in Tyler at Marvin United Methodist Church. Tom and I were married there, Tom's parents were married there, I grew up in that church, so we thought it would be special. As you can see from Andrew's face, he didn't like it very much. He cried the whole time the pastor held him and of course, when he came back to me, he stopped crying.

Andrew is really starting to push up on his hands when he's on his tummy. He even rolled over last Monday for the first time, but I can't catch him with the camera.

Christmas Pics

We had a wonderful Christmas! We celebrated with the Davis family last week and then the Burks family over Christmas weekend. Here are some pictures of our first Christmas with Andrew!

I had a great first Christmas!!!

We visited Tom's 93 year old grandmother, Andrew got to meet his one and only great-grandmother.

I love my rattle and toy that Aunt Jessica's parents got me from Harrod's in London!

I finally have something maroon to wear! Yea!

Christmas morning was so fun, I had lots of toys and a new chair!

On Christmas Eve, Pops read me Twas the Night Before Christmas.

Hangin' out with Daddy

We got to celebrate Christmas early with Grandmother and Granddaddy.

I look cute in my dog bath towel.

I can't believe it! Andrew is 3 months old!

Snow Day!

This is what we woke up to outside our front door, Snow!!! It was really heavy this morning, but has melted away already. They said we might have flurries, but no accumulation, they were wrong! We usually get snow once, but not this early. It was very nice to wake up to!

Andrew wasn't sure about it how cold it was!

The 2 beggars! I was trying to eat my breakfast, Scout was begging for food and Andrew was begging for milk.

Celebrations

What a crazy past few weeks! We have had lots to celebrate. We have had people come visit us, Andrew turned 2 months old, Tom had his 29th birthday, and we celebrated out 5 year Anniversary! We also spent Thanksgiving in Tyler and Longview.

Andrew was in such a good mood! He is smiling so much more and showing his precious personality!

I love for daddy to hold me!

Aunt Catherine flew from Denver to see me. I can't wait to meet my cousins Emma and Madeline soon!

Grandmother and Granddaddy also came to visit.

Aunt Jennifer, Uncle Jay, and cousin Sarah came too!

Tom and I went to dinner for his 29th birthday.

I am amazed at how fast life goes by. Tom and I have now been married for 5 years. I thought back about everything we have done and accomplished in 5 years, 2 houses, job changes, ups and downs of life, and now a child! I was looking at the pictures below and reflecting on how we have changed.

While in Tyler for Thanksgiving, we got to see my high school friend Libby and her son Mason.

I love talking to DeDe on my changing table.

I had fun with Pops!

Aunt Jessica and her sister Molly kept me entertained!

Uncle Brian isn't very familiar with crying babies, so I showed him what it was like.

Grandmother rocked me in the old family rocking chair.

Grandmother and Granddaddy sang the "Good Morning" song to me and made me smile!

Halloween and Our First Trip

I'm a little behind on posting, sorry. We have been busy the last couple of weeks! We went to Tyler for Halloween because Tom went to Colorado, that was our first long distance trip in the car. It went well on the way there, but coming home was when Andrew cried the majority of the time. Scout would start whining in the back, then Andrew would start to cry. It was like they were taking turns. I needed ear plugs!!! I also started an online business called Pink Posey Designs, painting wall letters and canvas art for children's rooms. Check it out... www.pinkposeydesigns.com
Andrew will be 2 months old next week, time goes by too fast!
