Ice ice coffee....

I always think ten steps ahead. I’ve been thinking a lot about Carolina June’s first birthday and her dedication, and then I thought it would be fun to have a family get together for the 4th of July but that’s just a couple weeks after her birthday. We would be having an event back to back to back. So I’m focusing first on her dedication because I want to get it done in March! I know most people go to the church and go home...but we’re not most people! I love any excuse to celebrate with my loved ones and have everyone all together. So of course I’m planning on a special outfit and a cake and fellowship at the house after. Look at all this dark hair y’all! 



Carolina had lots of fun this past weekend! Mama and daddy cleaned the garage all up and she got to use her swing she got for Christmas for the first time! We had to bundle her all up because it was cold in Texas 


She also sat like a big girl in the cart for the first time!! I couldn’t believe how grown up she’s getting. My sweet baby. 




She thought the rain and cold wind was HILARIOUS when it hit her! Lol I was like no ma’am it is freezing we’re Texas girls. But she was just tickled pink over it. 

37 weeks pregnant VS my ALMOST 7 month old!!


I look at her and am amazed that she used to be in my belly. The size of a mustard seed! Just like our faith that one day God would bless us with her. 


Baby girl fell asleep watching Elmo in the car! We wanted a DVD player for the car for Christmas because she hates the car so much! We hoped it would help distract her and console her. Seemed good the first time!


I love these chubby naked baby pics! I love to dress her up but we love being nakey just as much!


It’s been soooo cold!! We had to piece together a cozy outfit real quick because we were going to look at a house. That we LOVED but the location was bad. Womp womp. God will open that door when he’s ready for us to walk through it! 



In the meantime my sweet husband pulled up our gross carpet! We’re going to lay the same wood floor we have in our living room down and replace carpet in the bedrooms eventually. 

Baby’s first snow bunny! 


She loves this lamb that her cousin Ella made her at Eva Brynn a birthday party! 


FaceTiming uncle bubba in NY! 

Wednesday morning she was busy! Lol before I finished my first cup of coffee she had a blowout of carrots from the night before! Got her all cleaned up and sat her in the chair with me and I hear baby snores 


I guess she got up too early because this little girl was out! Then we snuggled and mama watched her favorite show, bringing up bates! That family is so encouraging and uplifting to me and they have so many traditions and values that I would love to instill in our home. I got up and made myself some breakfast on my favorite plates, nana and papa got us these for our wedding shower. Sunflowers were my wedding flower 🌻

Along with a second cup of coffee...which Carolina June decided to we should just wear. She was nursing while I was taking a sip and threw her arm up! Coffee poured in my hair my shirt and rolled like beads down her face lol OKAY BABY. This is why I need the coffee to do the things! Later that night me and Dane took Carolina to play with her cousin at nanny’s house and we went to eat tbone toms



Carolina sat and played the whole time and apparently was very vocal and wild lol and they got to feed her some carrots which I know they enjoyed...who doesn’t love feeding a baby?! &even though I missed her I knew she was ok and as much as it’s good for me and Dane to have alone time it’s good for her to be away from us! (for short periods of time, don’t get crazy I’m never leaving her for longer than dinner 😂) speaking of crazy this girl has lost her mind and woke up SIX times?!? I don’t know I lost count but from midnight to 7 AM she woke up at least 6 times I think it was more. She fell back asleep for a bit after Dane left for work and then started crying again, I flipped her on her tummy to hopefully play so I could wake up for a min bc I was just dead tired and she did play for a minute or two and then I noticed she was very still and not talking anymore. 

We’re gonna have to talk about the whole wake mom up and then PASS OUT thing lol but for now I’ll just drink my coffee *which I spilled a little of because I’m so dang tired sometimes you need coffee to make coffee. But the sweet baby woke up and before I could finish my coffee and this happened 


This girl! It only got worse as the clothes and diaper came off lol but she is HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY! 

“Mama” now, is she making the connection who mama is? Probably not! But she sure can mimic! 


My sweet girl we went to see nana and look at this little bug all bundled up 



Just a swinging....



Missy jo came for a visit! We weighed them and Missy is 19.8 pounds and Carolina is 23.2! Lol 

All over the place! She’s not crawling she’s not scooting...I don’t know what she’s doing she just kinda turns and tada! Lol 


We took daddy to dinner because he always takes us! 



Her swing has been awesome for when we run out of fun things to do inside! Dane spends a lot of time outside and I always feel quarantined inside with her but now- she can sit outside with daddy and I can get some stuff done!! 


And a quick visit to see papa and nanny because papa is home! We’ve been trying to get her to do this and we could only get her to do it at random now she knows when we put our hand there to make noise haha


Church on Sunday 🤍⛪️




& MawMaw came to bring us pizza and visit! 


We finished our Sunday with sweet taters
