Pacifier Monster

Bennett does well as far as sleeping through the night without eating or needing to be changed. HOWEVER, she gets EXTREMELY upset when she looses her pacifier! So.....I thought I would remedy the situation.

It did NOT work! Now she crawls over top of ALL the pacifiers and screams because A. She cannot find her pacifier
and
B. She is lying ON TOP of the fourteen hundred I put in her crib....ouch!

Any suggestions would be helpful!

I counted six times Chris and I had to get up with her last night!!!!

However, she is still our sleeping beauty!

Six Month Portraits

Miss Baby Pukes - A-Lot!

The daycare called me Tuesday morning about 10 am to tell me that Bennett had thrown up all of her applesauce she had for breakfast and that she felt a little warm. She had thrown up all of her carrots the day before at lunch (all over her white ladybug sweater!). I left work to go and get her and the past two days have done more puke laundry than I ever thought possible. Tylenol kicked the fever and she never acted like she felt bad. Maybe it is a result of two bottom teeth starting to poke through!?! I know I was told wierd things would happen to her poop etc... when she started teething. Whatever the cause she seems better and held down dinner last night and breakfast this morning so back to daycare and work we go!

Finished Project

I finally got my dining room furniture painted after being in our house over a year! It turned out beautifully! I found fabric and made the table runner when I could not find exactly what I had in mind. I even made matching place mats!!! Just call me Martha!

No More Gender Mix ups!

I had been playing around with the idea of piercing Bennett's ears but my husband and mother had talked me out of it......that is until we were at the mall yesterday and YET ANOTHER moron looked down at my daughter dressed entirely in pink, including a matching wool plaid beret, and said, "What a cute little boy!" Bennett and I headed straight to Claire's and had her ears pierced. Chris refused to go in with me so he headed down to Barnes & Noble and left me to feel like a horrible parent all by myself. Bennett did wonderful though and I think she absolutely looks adorable (and all girl) with her new earrings! We will switch to pearls in six weeks when I can change them out.....the CZ's or gold balls were all they would use to do the piercing.

Success!!!

I finally got the video of Bennett Laughing at Zoe to upload! I really thought Bennett was paying no attention to Zoe seeing as how Zoe used my stomach as a trampoline for the entire nine months I was pregnant! How could I blame her? I would be ticked too if someone was jumping on my head, back, butt etc...everyday for nine months straight.....but maybe they will be friends after all! Zoe is really protective of Bennett and sits by her anytime she is in the floor playing! The video speaks for itself! Enjoy!

Belly Laughs

This video does not even begin to show how much laughing and giggling Bennett was doing last night. She was laughing hysterically at Zoe running through the house but for some reason that video would not download. I will try again this weekend but here is a quick clip I got to work! I also put one on here of her sitting in her jumper.....
