3 Boo-Boos

Poor Jacey Kate had to get 3 mean shots today at her 4 month appointment! It was not fun for any of us. I have been dreading it for the past week, and have prayed for her all day today. She did pretty good, we were proud of her! Of course she screamed her little head off...so much that the top of her head was all splotchy when we left.

Here is her 4 month info:

-15 pounds 12 ounces; 90th percentile

-25 1/2 inches; 90th percentile

-not sure what the head measurement was but it was in the 75th percentile

Doctor said these were all normal and good percentiles!

Green Bean Hater!!!

At our 4 month appointment today, we learned we can start several new things. I had no idea we would get to start food...I was just thinking we would probably start cereal. But Mommy was wrong, we get to start veggies, cereal, and water in a sippy cup! Craig and I went straight to Target after her appointment to get all the needed things for all this new stuff we get to try! Craig and I both wanted to cry. We just could not believe she was going to get to start all these things. She just is growing up WAY TOO FAST!!!! As you can see Miss Jacey did not care for green beans at all! The poor thing gagged and made all sorts of awful faces! Next week we will try to pick a more appetizing veggie like maybe squash. Mommy and Daddy love squash so maybe Jacey Kate will too!

Am I Cute Or What!!!

These are a few of the pictures I took over the weekend. The red dress is what she wore to church on Sunday. There was an older lady that saw her as we were coming down the stairs from our LIFE group (sunday school) and she just about went nuts! It was so cute. The lady was clapping her hands and just about squilling she asked me if she could touch her! haha I thought it was so sweet...and of course I let her "touch her"!

This is about my only good one in my favorite outfit. It took many tries. She was eating the flower in just about all the others! I am still trying to figure out if I want to have her picture made in it or not. I am pretty sure it would be a little hard to get a good one if all she wants to do is eat her shirt! haha

The zebra outfit is one Melissa got her before she was born. I think it matches Melissa's personality well...cute and wild!!!!

Jacey's New Thing

Jacey loves her Sassy Jumper!! She didn't stay in it real long, but long enough for the first time. It looks like she is having a good time! She didn't really jump too much, but she did turn in lots of circles!

My New Thing

These are not the best pictures in the world, and don't do the loveys much justice, but here they are. This is my newest thing! Jacey has really started to love some of her little loveys. She was given one kinda like this, and one day I decided I wanted to try to make one. Well, one turned into many and hopefully many more. I had one with me at a children's store here and asked them if they might want to sell them and they did!!! I was excited...then they said they wanted 12! I have been working on them all week and will take them Monday to see which ones they pick and if they want more! They have been a lot of fun to make. I have been going nuts getting tons of ribbon. I sure hope they want more or I will have a ton of ribbon on my hands!!!

Mommy's Favorite Outfit

I just about went crazy trying to get a good picture of her in this. This is about the best we did so far! All she wanted to do was put the flower in her mouth! Then I realized I forgot to put the little shoes on that matched. All those that I took with the shoes on were not good. Will try again later. She is sleeping now and I had a little time to blog, so I went ahead and posted what I had. I would love to have her picture made in this, but I think any photographer might want to choke us if all she wants to do is eat her shirt! Mom got her this cute little outfit before she was born, and I just love it. I almost waited too long for her to wear it because it was a little hard to get on this morning!

4 Month Birthday!

It is so hard to believe Miss Jacey Kate is 4 Months old! I know I am a day lost in posting this, but I did take the picture yesterday. She is getting to be more and more fun everyday. It seems like she has done something new every week for the past few weekends! The funniest thing is her new "motor boat" sound! It is pretty funny. She seems to do it most when she is a little frustrated! Now for where we are at four months.....Jacey is still wearing a size two diaper, we are kinda in between sizes, but twos work a little better than the ones. She is wearing pretty much all 3-6 months in her clothes. I have been excited that she has been able to wear some things this past week that we hadn't been able to yet. We were starting to get tired of some of the old stuff! She is rolling over all over the place like a little rollie pollie! She is still loving her swing and her thumb! haha I have given up worring about her being a thumb sucker. I am sad to admit, I even think it is kinda cute sometimes. It just may not be cute if she is still sucking when she is 5 or like my mom...16! Yes, that is right. Mom sucked her thumb until she was 16! She still sleeps on her back when she is home, but her babysitter says she most always sleeps on her tummy there. I have one of those wedge things so she can't turn over. Her babysitter says she will try to turn her over and she will leave the room and come back and she will be on her tummy again. Jacey has shown us her precious little laugh a few times. It is the sweetest sound! That is about all I can think of right now that she has done since last month. I think I need to start writing things down as they happen so I don't forget when they happen. Have a happy friday! I am off today and spending the day with my girl, so I know we are going to have a great day!

Look What My Daddy Did

Do you see anything wrong with this picture......?

Craig usually gives Jacey her bath every night and dresses her. I picked her pajamas out this one night because I wanted her to wear this one outfit. Craig hardly ever picks it because it is a little more difficult to get on than most of her pajamas. And you see what happens when something is a little difficult to put on...it gets put on backwards! haha

Time for Church

We finally were able to go to church a couple of weeks ago, and look how cute we were! Her doctor asked us to wait to take her until she was at least three months old. Most of our Sunday school class gave us heck for waiting so long, but we were the paranoid parents who chose to do what the doctor asked. Better to be safe than sorry! Anyway, she did so good and got lots of love! Thank you Chapman's for my cute little dress!

Happy Birthday Dad!

Happy Birthday Dad! I hope you know how much you are missed and how much we all love you! Isn't that the best smile! I miss it more than words can say! I hope you all find a little smile yourself when you see this and just remember what an amazing man this is. I am so very proud to call him my Dad! Happy Birthday Old Man! (that is what I told him every birthday, he would say "Who me?")

Lovin these!!!!

I just love these pictures and had to share1 My cousin's wife took these at our family reunion over the 4th of July. Kristy is an amazing photographer! The bottom left picture cracks me up..it looks like she is about to punch Kristy in the nose! Kristy took a ton of pictures that I will be putting on the blog hopefully sometime soon.

Jacey is growing more and more every day. She is not quite rolling over yet, but she is getting pretty darn close. She has started laughing though and it is priceless. If I can catch it on video I will try to get brave and attempt to post that on here too. I know it can be done, it is just if this chick here can figure out how to get it posted!
