19 weeks

 

Been working hard getting his room organized! Playing around with decorations and finally settled on “little blue truck” theme! It’s a cute children’s book with a blue truck and farm animals 







Feeling: hungry have to pee all the time and lots of sciatica nerve pain! 

Craving: supreme pizza! Yum.

18 months of loving Carolina June

 






Making so many connections! She loves to bring Dane his hat to put on…wiping her face with a napkin if you hand her one, she puts her cup at water dispenser, she found a package of baby spoons I hadn’t opened and got them opened the drawer her spoons go in and handed them to me like mom these are in the wrong spot here ya go! Handing me the pillow we use to nurse when she wants to nurse. She turns on the fan in our room at bedtime. She’s figured out the trash can except she just thinks it’s fun to throw everything away even if it’s not trash! She brings paisley her dog bowl all the time because she knows it belongs to her. She loves to open and close cabinets, drawers and doors. She loves to run and jump in her ball pit so we have to keep it off the wall so she doesn’t hit her head. She LOVES shoes. She’s still learning to climb but much more interested and a little more determined now. She still gets frustrated trying to climb the couch and will only try for a few seconds before she looks at you for help. She will blow kisses on her own terms and wave “bye bye!” The funniest thing she does or the thing that tickles me the most I should say is she clenches her fists and her jaw while showing her bottom teeth and makes her eyes big and shakes her head back and forth! It’s like an angry face and usually when she does it she’s about to do something bad or mean. But a lot of the time she does it and then kisses me. It is hysterical and I take my chances because I want the kisses! She also likes to pick her food out of the pantry and knows which cabinet has her yummy snacks. She’s very into bananas, mandarin oranges and mini waffles! & usually anything im eating she is at least curious about but somehow she always knows if it’s chocolate or ice cream. She would never beg me for a bowl of broccoli. She is also fascinated by fountain drinks with straws you can hardly have one around her because she thinks she needs to drink it all she is addicted. Thankfully she also loves to brush her teeth. At her last appointment she was 26.2 pounds and 32.5 inches long. We love her more than life itself and love watching all the changes she is making and can’t wait to see what kind of big sister she will be!

JuneBugs first real ouchie

 


Carolina June got her first set of scraped knees. She fell in the driveway. She was very tough! She cried but stopped when I turned on toy story so I could look her over. That’s when I noticed her knees were banged up good. I cleaned them but they kept bleeding and she wanted to touch them so we went ahead and gave her a bath that way we could get them dry clean and covered up with pjs for the night. So proud of our tough girl! She did NOT sleep good though she woke up several times whimpering. I think because she sleeps with knees tucked under her and couldn’t get comfortable. Finally at 5 I just brought her to my bed so I could keep her sleeping on her side. Poor baby finally got sleeping good and of course it was morning of my anatomy scan when I had to leave early and drop her off at Pam’s 

She had a good day playing and never acted in pain and took a good nap 






We went to hobby lobby and she ate almost a whole bag of M&Ms 




She’s on a banana kick. I got a banana to share with her and she took both halves lol 


Trouble 





She’s been climbing like crazy all of the sudden 


And I can’t keep her full. Always hungry!! 



Teaching her Trex how to accessorize 



Big breakfast and still obsessed with bananas 





Doing all the big girl things lately! When she was done she wanted to sit at the table. She’s getting heavy for me to get out of the high chair we really need to get her a booster 







She was so good and played independently almost all day while I made stuff for my nieces bday party 


I made two banners and two shirts too but I didn’t get pictures of them. She laid on the floor and covered herself up 

Another big breakfast for the big girl 


This morning she surprised me by eating a raspberry first 



Things got really messy! She ate several spoonfuls of peanut butter lol can’t say I blame her 




We had a sink bath because she got peanut butter in her hair. Later I walked in the living room and she was pulling the rug over her body. GIRL. 

Miss climbs a lot scaring us in the rocker! 


She fell asleep with her little legs crossed 


Looks so much like her daddy 



We went to play with cousin JoJo Friday night! They love each other 

Dane and papa came to our house to work on something and Carolina got the Vienna sausages out of the cabinet to play the papa game and couldn’t find him lol she was sliding cans under the door and then looking under it because nobody was sliding them back haha 


Another day another empty ball pit! Her favorite thing to do right now. But I’m glad she can entertain herself 


Night night Paisley girl! 

Been reading her the little blue truck Valentine book which inspired me to do Beaus room little blue truck style! 


She looks huge here 





We went to fedex and had breakfast at iHop…I was not prepared. I told them we would need a high chair. They asked if a booth was ok and we said yes. They brought us a big girl booster seat with no straps….I was FREAKING out. Dane may have had to tell me to calm down. & she eats so much now she got her own breakfast 







Like who is this big girl sitting across from me feeding herself drinking from a cup on her own and sitting in a booster seat! She crashed on the way home 

My goofy husband 


When she woke up we went to Pam’s so I could take a couple pictures of jojo in her bday outfit. 

Sunday morning leftover pancakes and daddy cooked us bacon and I fried some eggs 





Queen of the house 

The Queen and her subjects 


Gymboree cutie for our morning Kroger trip 


Nana gave her some fake money but it looks pretty real


Sleepy girl playing her heart out! Naps are weird right now since we are only nursing for nap and only sometimes. I’m just trying to go with whatever she wants to do that day 



Finally she was having meltdowns and I just had to get her to give it up and go to sleep 

We went to my moms for dinner Sunday night and all enjoyed the lasagna uncle pawpaw made! But Carolina was very unsocial and sat in her dads lap the whole time watching toy story 

She loved the lady dog she got from mawmaw from lady and the tramp! 


Crazy crazy girl playing with mamas beau belly at bedtime!
