Mom! There Are a Lot of Dust Bunnies Under My Bed!

For a child that isn't crawling yet, Gabriella sure can get around. Maybe I should attach a Swifter cloth to her belly so she can get those hard to reach places.

Mad Skills!

In my Mommy & Me group we had a group discussion on the hazards of walkers. The presenter even suggested that the walkers are "archaic." We take precautionary measures to ensure Gabriella's safety and hopefully she will not have any negative physical side effects...from ALL THE FUN SHE HAS!!!!

Check out Gabriella's reverse maneuvering!

Daddy Hugs!



Sugar!

I have said from the beginning of the thing we call "parenting" that I was going to try to encourage healthy eating habits for Gabriella. This, however, is very difficult when I have a husband that doesn't eat anything green and LOVES cupcakes.

After this sugar binge Gabriella was up until 10:30 pm! Jim blamed her late night on teething.

Rubber Ducky You're the One

My mom got Gabriella a new bath tub. The ducky tub is SO much better than the infant tub we had! Gabriella has so much fun playing in the ducky and it's not as easy for her to try to climb out.



365 Days

For our one year anniversary Jim made lunch reservations at my favorite tapas resturant, Noche! I LOVE THE LOBSTER TACOS!!!! I also enjoyed a nice wedge salad and crab cakes. We followed lunch by checking into the Hyatt and strolled through what use to be Buckhead (it's now flat undeveloped land). After our walk we were famished! We rehydrated with a beverages and appetizers at Lola. For dinner, Jim took me to Aquaknox. Dinner included an appetizer, soup, main course, and a yummy dessert! We finished our bottle of wine at the bar and watched the Olympics! Jim really knows the way to my heart is with delicious food and drinks!

Day with the Grandparents!

We went to Atlanta to visit my parents and so Jim and I could go out and celebrate our one year anniversary! Gabriella really had fun with her Grandmommy and Poppy!


Disney's Hollywood Studios

Gabriella and I enjoyed a day at Disney's Hollywood Studios thanks to Cyndi and Daisy! Gabriella had such a fun time hanging out with her new friends. She got so excited during a character puppet show that she started yelling at the stage and dancing!

Wine Night!




I had the mommies from my Mommy & Me group over for a wine night! I really enjoyed spending time with everyone outside of our group meetings. I was so happy that I could be the "hostest with the mostest" and offer the mommies a few hours of hanging out with new friends.

Cyndi made cupcakes for Monica's birthday...and they were delicious! We all sang, perfectly in tune and harmony, Happy Birthday to Monica.
Jim and Gabriella had a date night that evening. They met up with Nigel for dinner in Winter Park allowing for me to have a baby free couple of hours as well!
