Half Birthday!

This girl is 6 months old now! We celebrated by having avocado for the first time, solids are starting to bore poor Sum. She was a little impressed with the green stuff...but not much. Also, she doesn't take a bottle and trying to give her water or anything is hard unless it comes from me so if you have any suggestions pray tell won't you? We have started giving her a sippy cup but she just gets all wet.
Can't believe that 6 months ago I was being told that I was STILL at an 8cm dilation and I'd have to be put on pitocin to speed things up. Now it's like I never went through that hell:) Obviously it was worth it, she's an angel!
6 month appointment went well, her stats:
weight- 16lbs=50th percentile
height- I forget but it's 97th percentile

long story short she's going to be a model! We are thrilled

Dear Blog...

Sorry I have been so forgetful of you lately. Can we still be friends, of course we can because I created you remember?

This baby is growing and will be 6 months old soon! Crazy. She is so fun and cute, I just had to slip a picture of her in here somewhere.



On to the real reason I'm visiting this old blog. Downton Abbey is my new love and obsession! I love it and I love my mother for introducing it to me. Listen to you mother kids, sometimes it totally pays off! Next season, if I don't see a wedding between Mathew and Mary I might scream. Anyway I saw a really great article about Downton HERE
This website shows the characters on set and then in real life. It is sooo fascinating! The biggest upsets for "what they look like in real life" are Thomas (are you kidding me with that beard bro?), and Ethel (Boobs). Check it out, you won't be sorry. You might cry however from lack of Downton now that it's over!

Vegas Baby!

The baby and I decided that our lives needed some adventure. Luckily we have besties that live in the most sinful city in the country...nay the whole world!

And there was a 3rd birthday that just happened to be going down the week we visited. The picture below is of said birthday party. It rocked and went into all hours of the afternoon. Just look at the baby trippin' on all sorts of crazy breast milk. The 3 year old was ready for more of course.

Best Friends Forever has new meaning with this gal pal. We can't seem to get rid of each other. This pic was of us right before we devoured our meal at Stake 'n Shake. Love that place
The Bellagio fountains did not disappoint! The baby thought the show was ok but she was a little scared of the drunken Mickey Mouse by us who was looking for a hand out.
Ah Pari (you know Paris). Twas a fun night.
We had to stop and have a frozen hot chocolate from Serendipity! Pure heaven
We had so much fun! Thanks to our best girl friends who took us in and showed us an unforgettable time!!
