Bella's 1st Snow Day!

We finally had a real snow day today! Schools were closed and Daddy's work even let them go home early! Bella got dressed in her teddy bear snow suit and watched the snow from the window. She loved watching the snow fall!

Picnik is awesome!All tuckered out after her big snow day!Not really a snow day pic, but we thought it was too cute that she was holding her bottle. She has actually done this several times, but today she did it for most of her feeding.

Happy Birthday, Nena!

Today is my mom's birthday and unfortunately she is headed to Texas for work. :( Since she can't see Bella on her birthday, we decided to post a few pics for her (and everyone else) to enjoy! Happy Birthday, Mom!This one speaks for itself!
I used Picnik to make the speech bubble and border. Picnik is my new obsession!

I am "Grandma's Little Doll," can't you tell?

Bella is very excited to wish her Nena a happy birthday! Can't wait to celebrate with you!

Footloose and Fancyfree

Bella really enjoys being barefoot lately. Here is a video and a few pics that show how much she enjoys it!

Be warned, the video is a little long, but I just couldn't decide which parts to cut out. She is smiling, sneezing, making bubbles, and kicking her feet like crazy. All too cute to cut!

"Check out my adorable toes!"
Stretching her legs out all the way!
Practicing her quarterback pass! Go LONG!
A close up of Bella in Mommy's new favorite shirt...can you tell why?

Noa and Bella's 1st Playdate!

We finally had a chance to go visit my friend, Tali, today and have a playdate with her beautiful baby girl, Noa. Not much of a "play" date...more of a sleepover! Bella was knocked out because I gave her some baby Tylenol before we went over there. She has been very fussy from her shots earlier in the week. The Tylenol worked wonders. While we were visiting with Tali, Sally came by with dinner for Tali and Dan. We also got to visit with Tali's friend, Janis. We had a lot of fun! Can't wait to do it again soon!Tali, Noa, Bella, and I really enjoyed our time together!
Bella even slept through Sally's time with her. Maybe next time she will be more awake!

2 Month Update!

2 months ago today, our beautiful baby girl was born! We can't believe it has already been two whole months. We went to the pediatrician yesterday for Bella's 2 month checkup and all went well. She is nearly 24 inches long and weighs 12 pounds and 7 ounces! Since she is so long, she is starting to break out of some of her 3 month outfits and has begun wearing some 6 month clothes. Bella is also doing very well with her reflux and the doctor was happy with her progress. We are also very happy with Bella's sleeping pattern. She takes 5 naps a day and then sleeps for about 7-8 hours at night. It is wonderful! Bella is all smiles (as evidenced in the pics below) and even gave us a few giggles this past weekend! She is also doing a great job of rolling from her tummy to her back. All of the following pics were taken today and I just couldn't decide which ones to post, so there are several. Enjoy!"I am so excited to be 2 months old!""How's this pose, Mommy?"Bella loves her Boppy seat! "Read my shirt...I am Daddy's Little Princess!""Look at my fingers...I am two months old today!"
She did this on her own and it cracked me up!

Fashion Show!

Just an excuse to show off all of my cute outfits! Too young for the catwalk, so a blog update will just have to do!Mommy's Little Joy! Who could resist that smile?

I like this outfit, Mom!

Time to work out...who's with me?Too busy looking at her favorite toy, Mr. Bunny, to smile for the camera. Bella loves to talk to Mr. Bunny while she is getting her diaper changed! She loves this outfit!

Sweet dreams in my crib. These jammies are so comfy!

Too cute in her baby jeans! She is definitely not interested in watching Daddy's video game. Like Mommy, like daughter!

I'm ready for snow!
This is actually a 6 month outfit. I put it on her on accident thinking it was 3 months. I can't believe it actually fit. Well, the jacket is a little big, but the rest fit pretty well.
