Baby Marin

These are my last pictures of me and baby Marin on the inside:) The next ones will be after she arrives! This was taken on Aunt Brigee's due date!

I am giving her a little pep talk...come out and play with me!

(she was born 3 days later)

We have been busy outside

We have been playing outside a ton! I love it! It has been really hot so some days I have to wear my bathing suit to keep cool!

My favorite place to sit!

I love playing in my new water table (Thanks Uncle Matt and Aunt Jodi)

Don't I look like a big girl?!?

My buddy Jack pushes me around in my car...what a nice guy!

I am still really into books! I have this fancy new chair (thanks Selms) where I can sit and read!

They can't hide my toys from me...

A night with the Selms

They have a pond with fish in it! We fed them and got to see them swim right up to us!

Makenna and Aubrey have the best toys!

Crown Hill

We went with Nana to put flowers on all her grandparents graves for Memorial day.

This is my great great great grandma- died well before mom was born.

My great great grandparents...mom remembers them well!

I thought it was a nice little seat, this is after I stood, jumped off of and bounced on the headstone...Nana was sure they would love it!

Burr...it's cold again!

Mom and Dad worked in the yard while I played in my car.

Once I got too cold I had to watch from inside...My nose was smashed against the window so I could see better!

Let me out!

I finally got my big girl car seat so we decided to try it out before we even put it in the car.

First trip to the zoo

We went to the zoo for the first time! I LOVED it! I took it all in!

I pointed at EVERYTHING!

The butterfly garden was great...though this is what I looked like the whole time!

The Oceans was my favorite. This is the stingray area, they kept swimming right by me! I thought it was so funny!

The sharks were great too!

Hopefully dad has a tight grip!

My best buddy

This is Jack, one of my best buddies from school, we couldn't stay awake during our morning walk so we cuddled up!

Thanks Nana and Pop Pop

Nana and Pop Pop babysat me for 3 nights so Mom and Dad could go to a wedding in West Virgina. It was the first time I was away from mom over night...but I had so much fun there wasn't time to miss them!

We played outside.

Went to have dinner with the Holms at Caty's house.

Acted silly!

I helped Pop Pop with a project at the house.

and Nana and I pulled weeds!

My trip to hospital

I had to spend the night at the hospital to have some test done to see why it is so hard for me to swallow food and to check my acid reflux. I had to check in at 10 am and couldn't eat or drink after bedtime the night before. I was a trooper! I waited 18 hours to eat with very little complaining! We had to keep busy in Pre-Op for over two hours, might I add that not only I was hungry it was nap time....

Here I am in my hospital gown...mom and dad kept laughing at me!

We read lots of books while we waited!

I went on many rides in the cool car. I pulled the other toy with me for safe keeping!

After about an hour Mom and Dad were called back to see the doctor and then got to come see me in the recovery room. I was out of it!

I was so out of it they made mom ride in the bed with me to go up to my hospital room.

This was my bed once we got to the room. I slept great in it both at night and for naps, now mom and dad's set up wasn't as good!

I was real sleepy at first!

Check out my arm bands. They put these on so I wanted pull out any of the tubes. They kept my arms from bending which made things VERY tricky!

I bounced back very fast! They had lots of toys and I had the nurses to myself so it was really fun!

All smiles the whole time!

All GIRL!

I love my baby. I hug her, kiss her, pat her back, and carry her with me around the house.I tuck her in her stroller and push her all around.

I use everything as a purse! Anything I can get my hands on goes into my "purse" and I carry it with me.
