Sweet Nothings

This morning I was looking in mirror at myself, sad because after breastfeeding my shirt does not fill out like it did a month ago. Jeff said........ yeah they are just sweet nothings! THANKS!!!!

Easter

This year Easter was also Jeffs Birthday and we spent the day in Newton with his family. We went to church with them after some stong hinting from his mom that she would be in the nursery that Sunday :) We have not taken a family pic in a while and I am really happy with this one. Jeff looks old huh? He turned 28!!!!! Jeff's mom plays the organ and Josie loves to sit in her lap and push the buttons!

I just love how happy she looks!



Good mommy daghter pitcure, I don't like too many of myself but I do really like this one! she just looks nothing like a baby. Growing up too fast!

BUBBLES!!!!

Pretty dress, I didn't have to agonize over a dress this year. My Great Aunt sent me a box of super cute dresses and all I had to do was pick one. Then Grandma bought us the cute butterfly clip to match.

Josie's Birthday Bow Party

It was just awesome!!! I don't have any pictures to post #1 becasue I forgot to take any (being a hostess is hard work) and #2 my computer won't let me load any pictures anyway (don't know why, my bro-law will be on that this weekend!!!) It was soooo much fun, such a wide array of people came to say happy birthday and help me donate bows. I have $60 to spend and because her bows are so affordable that is alot!!!!! I will donate them to our local American Cancer Society and they will get them to the little girl who needs them. If you are confused about how a little girl with no hair can wear a bow then check out www.beadsnblooms.com and that will clear it up for you. While you are there buy stuff, Jessica who owns the company is awesome and her products are quality, and cute!

Almost everyone who was invited came and it was a little crazy in my teeny apartment, but it was so much fun to see everyone. Josie got some great gifts and CUTE clothes. WOW I can't believe how well it turned out.

I am just so blessed to be able to celebrate my baby girls first birthday, she is just awesome. Yeah that's a good word, AWESOME!

Just a Couple of Pics

If only she would keep the sun glasses on longer than it takes to take a picture!

It is Finished

Well it's official, we are done breastfeeding. It's been 39 hours and I am still really sad! I did it gradually so I am not uncomfortable (I am wondering if I will be) Josie is just fine with it. She was losing interest anyway and with me gone until hours after her bed time last night Jeff and I decided it was time. I am excited to move on with life but this is a big step. It was such a HUGE part of my life for a whole year. I am now at a total loss of how to put her to bed. She like to read books, just not in my lap. So I don't know really how I am going to wind her down for bed. She would always go go go go then nurse and be ready to get in the crib. So I need some ideas..........
