What I Love About You...42 Weeks

42 Weeks
May 20, 2010




I Love...
-playing in the water with you. Notice the first picture. It was your first reaction when we put you in your new toy. The water was really cold and you didn't like everything spraying at you. Once Daddy turned down the spraying, you had lots of fun!






-you relaxing on me! I love just chill time with you. You aren't willing to sit still and cuddle often, but when you are, I love it!


-your first two teeth! You have had them for weeks now, but I finally got a picture where you can see them! I discovered them for the first time on April 10th.


The video below is Caroline walking down the hall with our help, of course! I can't believe she is getting so big!


9 Months Old

Caroline turned 9 months old on April 30th. My friend, Angela Murray, took her 9 month photos. There are 2 below. They are the only ones I have so far, but she will be adding the rest to her photo site soon. If you click on her name above, you can go there.

Caroline is such a treasure. She is getting around so well now and is even trying to walk quite a bit. She still loves for me to hold her and I am trying to treasure every minute of that. She still just has 2 teeth and they haven't come in all the way yet. She loves to eat solid foods. I really think her favorite is zucchini. She still loves to pull all of the toys out of the toy bin when she can get to it. She is just amazingly beautiful. I know I am very partial, but she really is the most beautiful baby I have ever seen!

41 Weeks
May 13, 2010



I Love...
-seeing you play with your new toy from Nonna & Poppa. You can ride it and walk with it. You are starting to show lots of progress towards walking. I can't believe it is already getting close to time for that!

-seeing you hanging out with your Poppa. You were both zoned in on the TV this day.


-my first Mother's Day with you! It was also the day of your dedication and I am so glad the Lord has blessed us with you!

This is my new favorite picture of us. It was taken on Mother's Day. I am so thankful for you!

-that you are a pretty neat eater. This is a teething biscuit. Everyone says they hate them because they are so messy, but you don't make much of a mess with it.


-your crazy Daddy's positions for you. You love almost all of them. I guess you are just like him!



Here is a video of you signing "more" for the first time. I am so proud of you!!!

I Love...
-just how sweet you are and how sweetly you play. You are such an amazing girl!



-bath time with you and Daddy. You look so cute in your hooded towel!



-how you are getting around so well. This box was sitting on the floor and you found it fun to push it around. You slid it all around the floor.


-you!!! You are so beautiful, wonderful, sweet and loving! I love you, sweet Caroline!!!




-this picture of you. You like to sleep like this alot. This day you were particularly cute because of the beautiful skirt you had on. I love it!


-watching you playing with the laundry basket. You find so much fun in such common things! You also enjoy getting in it and being pushed around. You are so much fun!



The video below is Caroline feeding herself for the first time. It was taken April 30th.

What I Love About You...39 Weeks

39 Weeks

April 29, 2010









I love...



-how mobile you are getting these days. This is when you crawled into the kitchen from the living room. You are crawling all over the place now.



-how you LOVE yogurt! It's very good for you! You also like to play with the containers. I think you are trying to find more, but it's always gone.





-your cute little naked self! This is what happens when it's time for bed and you are flipping around trying to get to all the things on the dresser.








-seeing you just chillin' on my bed with my hairbrush. It looks like you are practicing to play the guitar in the future. You are such a fun girl!




-playing "Where's Caroline?" with you. It's so much fun! You kept putting your outfit over your face and I would say, "Where's Caroline?" and you would lower it and look at me and we would do this over and over. We do this all the time! You love it and laugh so much! There is a video of this below.






Here is a link to a really cute video of Caroline that wouldn't load on here so it is on youtube. She loves to play with a gumball machine she has and this video is the first time she figured out how to put the gumballs back in. She is getting to be a big girl and is learning so many new things every day!

I Love...
-your cute little ruffled booty! ;)



-how easily entertained you are. You love to play with almost anything. You are such a good baby. If we need to be somewhere during nap time or are out past your bedtime, you are still so happy!


-how beautiful you are!

-your reaction when we fed you your first chunk of food. It was bananas. You love bananas, but apprently not as a chunk!


-seeing you play with your friend, Sadie. You both have so much fun together and I love getting to see you interact with her. You both just had to have the same toy in this first picture.



-seeing you relaxing with your Daddy! You love spending lots of time with him!


-seeing you spend time with our friend, Nora. She, her mom, dad and sister are such sweet friends of ours. It's sad because we don't get to see them very often anymore, but when we do, we always have a sweet time!

-how you play in the doorway of your "house". You love to crawl in it and through and sit right in the middle of the doorway.

-watching you crawl under your exersaucer. You LOVE crawling under there! I'm not quite sure what is so fascinating, but it's fine with me as long as you enjoy it!


-getting down on the floor and playing with you. You are such a fun girl!


-watching you knock down blocks over and over! There is a video below of you doing it.


-how much you love your mobile. You turn it on at almost every nap time now either before or after or sometimes both. You love to see the animals turn around and listen to the music it plays!

This is the week that Caroline really started crawling everywhere. Here is a link to the video I posted of her crawling all the way down the hall: Crawling


Video of my laughing Caroline:


Caroline loves for us to build towers for her with her blocks so she can knock them down. Here is a video:
