This is a little video collage that Alanis had done for her daddy.

Some Updates

It's been a busy week or so.

Alanis had some sort of virus for 3 days that made her have a very high temperature. It would get up to 103+ and that was while rotating Tylenol and Motrin every 3 hours. It was a little scary, but we made it through. The only other symptoms she had was a runny nose and a little cough here and there. Could be the Rhino Virus which is basically a cold. The Dr thought it might be Roseolo, but she never got the rash. I dont' know what it was, but I'm glad it's over!!

However , she passed it to mommy. I guess she's just such a nice girl she wants to share EVERYTHING with mommy! Now she passed it on to Daddy.

Big News on the Alanis front ...........................
On Thursday, she army crawled across the floor to me:) It was SO cool!! She didn't think so. She thought it would have been cooler if mommy just came and got her. I don't know where she gets that laziness from. Daddy and me are not lazy.
She's also getting tooth number 2 on the bottom!!
I wish she'd slow down a bit. I feel like it's all rushing by.
I'm so thankful that I only work part time.

She's been eating really well. Doing 5-6 bottles a day and 3 baby food meals + snacks.
She's all about food. Oh and she loves Freeze-pops. That's actually what she gets for desert now:) I know it feels good on her teethe, so I'm fine with it. Problem is, once it's gone she freaks out because she wants more.

Russ is doing well at his new job. No surprise there.
He hurt his back last week and is having some trouble getting around.
It's on the mend however and he's going to try and get some golf in today.

Well, I'll get some pics up tomorrow.
Just wanted to get you all an update since it's been awhile.

CONGRATULATIONS RUSS!!

My awsome hubby got a promotion yesterday!
It's so deserved. He works so hard. He's tired and he's worn out, but he keeps on going.

I think part of him enjoys the challenge, however, I know if it wasnt' for me and Alanis, he wouldnt' be doing it. It's a lot stress and a lot of work, but he's so determined to do whats right for Alanis and for me. He wants me to be able to continue working part time or not at all so I can be home with Alanis.

I don't know what I did to deserve such a wonderful man.
I must have done something right.

Anyway, Alanis made him a little gift yesterday................................................












She also smiled nice and big for this picture so that we could get it blown up for Daddy!



























He was pleasantly surprised:D

Love you Honey!

Alanis LOVES her new Radio Flyer Wagon!!

6 Months Old!!

My little baby turned 6 months old on Tuesday.

She had her 6 month appointment

Weight: 17 1/2 lbs (73%)
Height: 26 1/2" (80%)

She got shots. Made me so sad.
I think she knows the dr's office now. As soon as I put her on the table and she heard the paper crinkle it was all over. She started crying. Poor baby.

She pretty much sits on her own now. However, she'll still tip over if she's not paying attention or she moves too quick to the right or left.

She's eating 3 baby food meals a day.
LOVES food!!
The daycare can't beleive that she finishes her entire lunch every day.
She finishes ALL her meals everyday. AND has snacks.
She's a good eater that's for sure!

I got her a new Radio Flyer Wagon. The deluxe version. With the awning and storage.
It was her 6 month birthday present:)

I'll post some pics tomorrow!!!
