Happy 2 Month Birthday!

Where has time gone? I feel like I should start planning her 1st birthday party already. The last 2 months have been tons of fun.

She is really a laid back baby. She has even been on a few shopping trips including her first Black Friday experience.

Yesterday we took her in to get her first round of shots. Poor baby did not appreciate it at all. Today she seems fine after much cuddling with Mommy to make it all better.

She was 10 lbs 5 oz and 22 inches long. So in 2 months she has gained almost 3 pounds and 2 inches. Way to go baby girl!

She has started smiling and talking. Every morning she just wakes up so happy but she is definitely the grinch in the evenings which ironically is how her parents are as well.

Her first Christmas is upon us. Someone has gotten a little out of control buying her gifts but we won't point any fingers on that one. Suffice it to say that I wrapped 5 gifts for her today and I *think* there are still 4 on the way.

We can't wait to see how she continues to grow and change each day.

Greetings

One of my favorite things in life is getting mail. This also means I love to send mail. The USPS will remain in business solely because of my love for sending/receiving mail.

Over the years, I have used many avenues for creating Christmas cards, party invitations, calendars, and photo books however I have to say I have probably used Shutterfly for the majority of my projects.

We have a photo book of my journey through my pregnancy with Megan Grace. It is something I will treasure forever.

Over the last couple of years, I have used Shutterfly to create our family Christmas card and plan to do the same this year. They have lots of fun options to choose from.

When we have parties we often use them to create our invitations as well because like I said I love to get mail so I also love to spread the joy to others.

And this year with our new addition I'm considering having some of their adorable little ornaments made as gifts.

If you have never used Shutterfly it is definitely worth a try. Right now they are offering 50 free Christmas cards to bloggers who post about this special. Typically, I don't do these things but I have been a Shutterfly customer for years so I wanted to share with all of you!

Surprise Visits

One of the fun things about being home is being able to pretty much do whatever we want whenever we want.

Soooooooo we sometimes go to visit friends! On our most recent visit to see Christina

she took these images.

It was a great visit and we will surely do it again when the girls can play more.

This Is What Happens When I Get Bored At Home

I look for ways to torture my child. One day when she is older she is going to be very upset with me but for now at least I have entertainment when we are in the house for the day.

Disclaimer: I had help with this picture. When I took it her face looked grainy and some other stuff just did not look good so a good friend did some clean up for me. Thanks Christina!
