Kylah's first road trip to Nashville!

We took Kylah on her first of many, trips to Nashville this weekend!! She did so good, she slept the whole way there and the whole way back! I couldn't believe it. We have lots of family there now so we will be going as much as we can!

My dad (papaw mike) is down there with his job for a couple months so we met him for lunch at Logan's. Look at my dad's eyes...piercing ...he says they aren't blue???? Sure looks like it!
This is Alfred (papa). Kylah really got him good!! I was to busy trying to take a picture rather than cleaning him up! He didn't mind!!
Kylah has really started showing her personality. She is so loving and happy! i can really get her smiling now...so that means lots of pictures!
She was so festive in her Memorial Day outfit!
Michael and GG ....she was still not feeling great but was better than last week!

This is what we do best...when we can!
We stopped by to see Jess and Ashford, and Mike looked down and Kylah had fixed her hands so cute!!! I swear we didn't do it! She is gonna be quite the poser!
Ashford holding Kylah for the first time! He was so nervous. Mike ashured him it was okay ,and he did great!
She is so alert now ..I love it!

Happy B- Day Mckenzie!!

We were supposed to go to Nashville this weekend but Michael's mom (G G) is so sick. So we have to wait till next week. But we did get to go to Mckenzie's birthday party!!!

Ellie with cute shades on. Most of the time they were upside down ....so cute
Kylah slept through her first birthday party!!Thanks to her Nana!
The kids broke a pinata. Here is the mad dash to the candy!!
She woke up right before we left for a diaper change! She looks so pretty in red!

DADDY TIME!!!!!

WE DECIDED TO INTRODUCE KYLAH TO THE BOTTLE TODAY!

IT WAS TIME FOR HER TO HAVE SOME DADDY TIME!

SHE ACTUALLY DID PRETTY GOOD WITH THE BOTTLE. I'M NOT SURE HOW MUCH SHE ACTUALLY DRANK MOST OF IT WENT OUT THE SIDES OF HER MOUTH!

SHE TRIES TO BE SO BIG HOLDING HER HEAD UP, IT MAKES IT HARD TO BURP HER!

THIS BOTTLE IS BIGGER THAN SHE IS !!!

MIKE DECIDED TO FINISH WHAT WAS LEFT ....J/K BUT HE DID TRY IT. HE SAID IT WAS SWEET. HE SAID THAT HE WASN'T GOING TO FEED HIS BABY SOMETHING HE WASN'T WILLING TO EAT HIMSELF. I TOLD HIM JUST WAIT TILL SHE GETS TO EAT BABY FOOD, CAUSE I'M SURE THERE IS SOME HE WON'T TRY!!!! WE WILL SEE.

MY FIRST MOTHERS DAY!!!!

Kylah must have known it was Mother's Day!! Sat. night she slept 5 hours!!!!!
I'm so grateful to finally be a mother! It is the best feeling having Kylah here to take care of. She is a mommy's girl!
We went to see Mike's family for Mother's day. This is Cathy and Varnell celebrating with us!
Kaitlyn getting a little bored waiting on the food.
We took Mom out for lunch at Cracker Barrel.
Mike's swears he beat the game... I didn't see it but he says he did???

One month old already!!! Which means Dr. time!!

Kylah went to her one month check up today, and everything looked great! We are extremely blessed to have a healthy baby. She didn't even cry this check up.....just wait till shot time. I'm sure pics then won't be so happy! No test results from the repeat test yet. Only thing Dr. says is to put her on vitamins for vitamin d.
Daddy was having to hold her down to get her height! Mike said it looks like he is choking her.

Everyone says Kylah looks just like me...well my petite little girls is 20 3/4 in long! Growing...yes...but petite!
She is really starting to hold her head up. look at those chins!
My baby has some pretty eyes. Mike says they are gonna turn to brown, but Dr. Brice says he thinks they will be green!

I thought she was gonna be a porker....but 9 pounds even. I'm happy she is gaining good!

First trip to mommy's job!!

Last week I took Kylah to see the girls at work. They were just a little excited to see her. I love this girls!!! Notice the walls in the background.....ROSS DECIDES TO FINALLY REMODEL US! I'm so excited. Hopefully by the time I come back to work the shop will be finished....ya right I know Ross to well.
