Lola slept very well indeed

I went to check on this lady before hopping in bed last night and this is what I found... She is always sleeping in the weirdest positions with her head smooshed in the corner of the crib. If you move her, she goes right back. But this was a new position that I don't believe I have seen before...


Note:
  1. The left foot in between the bars.
  2. Her partially unzipped jammies, Chris thought she may have been hot. I just think it makes her look like Elvis.
  3. Her toothbrush. She loves brushing her teeth! {I was wondering where that went!}

I die....

...Over THIS. Crewcuts by J. Crew. I keep looking through all the adorable clothes!!! It is going to be sad someday when I look like a scrub because I have spent all of our disposable income buying every single piece of clothing on this website for Lola!!

Thank goodness she is a little bit too small to shop here yet. But don't worry, I am filling up my shopping cart for the future.

To see the cutest outfit ever CLICK HERE.





I am so glad that these stylish little clothes are available. When we were going through all the beautiful hand-me-down's for Lola, from my stylish aunt Heather, she told us about the magical time when Banana Republic sold baby clothes for a short jaunt. {she had some of them to prove it ;) Too bad Lola was already too big for them } I am lucky they don't sell them anymore.

A mom's life

I completely agree, I will think of "the good ole days" from time to time. But as I snap back into the present, I am so happy to be right where I am right now. Lola is the best thing to ever happen to Chris and I. We are over the moon for her!!

Girl's Trip 2009

We went to Park City again and had such a great time!! Our days consisted of:
  • Pedicures
  • Eating yummy food
  • Girl talk
  • Hot Tubbing
  • Shopping
  • Embarrassing Stories
  • More shopping
  • Sleeping
  • No kids {minus Jaxon in Amanda's belly and baby Alexander in Ash's tummy}

We spent 2 nights this year and it was nice to stay an extra day. I think we all could've stayed another night. It was great to relax and be in beautiful Park City. I love these ladies!! We always have so many funny stories to share and have too much fun when we are together. Thanks girls, you are the best! I am already excited for next year!!

all of us

getting pedi's



at baja cantina {I love that place}

amanda and I

This was my first time leaving Lola overnight. I was a little worried, mostly for myself... I got a little teary but that was it and the rest of the days went great for both of us. I was very glad to get back to her though! Thanks to my parents for watching her, she had such a good time too!

Music Monday

Oh my gosh, let me just tell you how much I love this show!!! GLEE... this is a spin on Music Monday. There will be more fun tunes next week. If you haven't watched GLEE, you should. It is so funny and cute and great!

Here is the trailer:


Here is the song they did on the pilot, maybe I teared up a little... or a lot!! It takes me back to high school. Yes, I was on Trouveres, which is a mild version of Glee Club. If Glee Club was like the really good Glee Club from the other school {if you watch, you know who I am talking about} I would have so done it!!! Good dancing and singing all in one!!! I even participated in the town musical the year after I graduated, we did "Anything Goes". It was so much fun!! {I bet you didn't know I did a little musical theater did you...}

I tried to find them performing this song but couldn't so here it is for you to at least listen to.

Don't Stop Believing

Music Monday.... is back!

This band I just discovered over the weekend while listening to my favorite XM/Sirius station. For those of you that have Dish Network it is channel 6026. It is XMU- Indie, underground, College rock. It is GOOD stuff!! Especially when they have "blog radio", which is where they play all the newest and greatest indie music that all the "hip" music peeps are blogging about... whoever they are. I can always find some great new stuff!

Today's musical gem is "WASHED OUT"-"Feel It All Around". From the album "Life of Leisure". This whole album just melts my heart. It makes me feel so relaxed and I get so giddy every time I hear it. {Do those emotions contradict one another?? Not sure, but it feels so good!} I am not sure when this album came out but he has a new album coming out this week {?} according to his myspace... It is entitled, "High Times".

Lola is a "stander"

She has finally gained a burning desire to stand up. She is pulling herself up to standing, next to me, couches, toys, etc. Here are some examples below. Walking is knocking and I am not sure I want to open the door. But it is coming whether I want it or not. Can't Lola stay little forever?!

As you can tell, Lola makes awesome faces!

New Imogen!!!!

I have been sucking royally at the whole "Music Monday" feature for the last few weeks. But this ought to make up for that and I promise I am back at it next week. I have had too many other "better" things to blog about on Mondays lately.

Here is this weeks gem, I don't know why I didn't talk about it sooner!!! But its
IMOGEN HEAP's new album "Ellipse".
It came out on the 24th of August and it is SUCH A GOOD ALBUM!!! You will not be disappointed. You all need to buy it asap!! :)

Here is the song, "First Train Home".



Hopefully we will get some official music videos soon!

i used to be a blogger...

... apparently I fell off the wagon for the last week. It has been busy. This weekend I headed down to Payson for Onion Days and stayed an extra day to jar salsa with my mommy dearest. It was a great weekend. Here are a few pics to document it.

Jordi the gimp

Lola LOVED the parade and was so loud when one of the royalty floats came by that the girl waved to her directly and blew her a kiss. She must've thought she was a princess up there!
Lou and I
Nic and Jordi
My bad pic of my dad's float and the eagle mascot is RoLee ha ha He loved it!
My dad handing out fliers like the hard worker he is!

Cosmo, that is for RoLee and Ryker oh and Jordi, she screamed so loud for him!
We had a lot of fun and I even went and got a "Texas Twister" lemonade at the carnival. It was $6 bones and when the nice man told me that, the first thing out of my mouth was, "that's steep!" I didn't even think before I said it and he replied, "but its worth it". Well it better be sir, because I was planning on putting a few bucks in the jar for the sweet girl with leukemia but your expensive lemonade robbed me of all my cash.

The booths were lacking. I should have done a Daris Day booth. But that takes a lot of time and money and I am a one-woman-show. So I don't know if the "craft fairs" are ever going to happen for this lady. If anyone ever wants to host a party though, I am more than game!!! LOVE THOSE!!!

Our salsa turned out fabulous!! I brought some in for my co-workers to try and they loved it. My mom and I were pretty proud. What a great extended-weekend!!

Lola's Big Girl Stats

Here is a preview of her 1 year photos...but before that, we went to her 1 year check-up yesterday and she is healthy and growing so fast! Here are her stats:
  • Height: 32" 105% (I swear she said 33" but on the paper it said 32"...)
  • Weight: 26.11# 105%
  • Head: 105% (they didn't tell me the measurement, only the percentile.)

They kept asking questions about if she has an interest in walking and if we hold her hands, if she will walk or if she will stand up if supported by something and I would just say, not really she has no desire. It was so funny. He was really nice and said not to worry about it yet and that with bigger babies sometimes it takes them longer. I just told him that I know when she is ready, she will do it :) What a silly lady!
