Our Weekend

Well I think Spring is finally here...for good this time!

We had a beautiful Spring weekend.  

Lots of fresh air, riding bikes, chalk and open windows! :)

On Saturday this little one woke up from her nap with crazy hair! :) 

Makenzie has been waiting for a good month now to wear this new (to us) outfit...

finally it was nice enough to wear it! :)

thanks Tati for passing it on to Kenzie...she loves Hello Kitty!! :)

Baby Jo enjoyed the sunshine too....

Look at her red hair!!  

A woman at the grocery store was convinced she's Irish.  I'm like no...she's actually 1/2 Colombian.
I don't think she believed me! hehe :)  

Watching sissy ride her bike...

Nice weather = no socks....yay!

Relaxing in the activity gym after playing outside....

Over the weekend this little cutie mastered rolling over!! 

Now the minute you put her down on her back she rolls over to her belly...

and then gets upset 2 minutes later b/c she wants to be on her back! 

Silly baby!

On Saturday Makenzie was so excited all day long to stay up to watch Yogi Bear on tv. 

I think it started at 7:30 and this is what happened by 8....

On Sunday the girls wore the same shirt to church....

Makenzie loves matching Josie!

And I think Josie might like it too! :)

Later we played outside again....while little sister took her afternoon nap! :)

tic, tac, toe anyone?!?  

6th month stats

On Wednesday Josie had her 6 month well visit.

Her doctor said she looks great! :) 

Her stats....

Weight: 15 lbs 15 ounces 

Length: 25 1/4 inches

I think both were in the 50th percentile.  

And just b/c I can't post without pictures.....

here are some cute ones from my phone :)

Puppy Dog Outfit {Makenzie & Josie}

oh my goodness...

How cute are they!?!   

 They are about a month apart in these pictures

Makenzie was about 6 1/2 months and Josie was about 5 1/2 months...

 Jo's red hair definitely sets her apart from sissy....

aww....big sissy definitely has the chubbier cheeks! :)

love my girls! :)

Drake's 3rd Birthday Party

A couple weekends ago we drove down to Jersey for the night for Drake's 3rd birthday party!  

I'm not sure how this little guy is already 3....

Before the party...

Josie was very excited...this was her first birthday party!

The adorable birthday boy..

Abuelo keeping an eye on Josie....

(and Josie keeping an eye on him too...looks like she's staring right at him!)

mommy and her girls....Kenzie looks thrilled, doesn't she?!?!

Kenzie & Gabrielle 

I think they are 3rd cousins?

They had a lot of fun t/g!

The party was at Giggles....a play place with some rides, games, and slides/tunnels...Kenzie loved it!

Cousins going down the slide t/g! :)

Drake enjoying his pizza! :)

Betty & Josie...

Betty's youngest son Patrick....he's too cute!

Gloria and Josie!

Playing with Camilla after the party....

Kenzie's exact words when Camilla had to leave...

"aww...I love she" hahaha!

6 months old

1/2 a year old! What!?!

Didn't I just find out I was pregnant with her!?!?

This time around it's going by wayyyy to fast...and I don't like it!  

I wish time would slow down just a little bit! :)  

Well like it or not little Miss Josie is 6 months old!  

Here is what she is up to....

As you will see Jo is getting to the age when it's hard to take pictures...she turns, she moves, she grabs, etc....and I know it will get harder as the months go on! :)

*she can roll over from belly to back with no problem.....back to belly is still a bit tricky.  Her heavy head weighs her down each time! :)  Her head is too heavy from being so smart I guess! :)

UPDATE: Just one day after posting this Josie starting rolling over non stop!  She must have read my post and was embarrassed! :)

*So far she's had baby cereal (rice & oatmeal), sweet potatoes, carrots, peas, bananas, applesauce, and peaches....she's not the best eater but so far she has done the best with PEAS!  I did not expect that!  

*Not sitting up on her own yet. We call her our "big pile of mush".  We sit her down and there is no support from her core!  She just flops every which way! :)

*Loves her mama...and dada!!  Last month she was a little weary about daddy but in the past month she just  loves to be around him!  Soooo cute how much she smiles when he gets home from work! :)  

*Horrible sleeper! haha!  I wish I was kidding, but I'm not!  She gets up every couple hours to nurse....just like a newborn!  

*No teeth yet but the doctor thinks she'll be getting some soon!  The doctor thought her gums felt hard!  Maybe this explains the no sleeping??  

*She's just starting to fit into some 9 month clothes (even some 6-12 that use to be Kenzie's).  Her 3-6 are getting pretty short/snug!

*Loves her Jumperoo (definitely her favorite "play thing") ....her activity mat comes in 2nd!

*Still sleeps in the Fisher Price Sleep 'N Play rocker.....but hopefully we will be transitioning to a crib soon!  At first I was dreading it but then again...how much worse can it be?  She already gets up all the time anyway, right?!?  

*Loves her sissy...she can just watch Makenzie all day long!  

*Loves being outside, going for walks, and swinging!  

*She will spit when she's upset.  She's our little llama! :)   One time as I was leaving the church nursery I saw the woman who was holding Josie wipe herself off with a tissue because she was covered with Josie spit!  hehe!

*Size 2 diaper although I think we will be moving up to 3 soon!

*Starting to get a little "testy" in the car!  Up until this point she was great in the car...but lately she's been crying!  Ugh!

*no teeth yet, but her doctor thinks they will come in soon...she said her gums felt hard! :)

*Still doesn't like the bottle!  And at this point who knows if she ever will!  (I'm sure it doesn't make it fun for Grammy when she's watching her! sorry Grammy!) 

Happy 1/2 year Josie Marie! We love you!
