Raylin's Valentine

Valentine's Night

Raylin dressed up for Brigg in a Daddy's Little Valentine shirt and he loved it. He also loves for her to wear blue jeans so we put those on too. Brigg cooked crab legs and boiled shrimp and Raylin sat in her bumbo seat at the table with us. She is modeling her Valentine bib that her Gran made for her. We had a wonderful Valentine's night with our beautiful baby girl.

Happy Valentine's Day!!!

On Valentine's Morning, we gave Raylin the Elmo TMX Doll. She wasn't very amused by it, but hopefully in the near future she will like it. Brigg and I really enjoyed it though! If you haven't seen one, you definitely need to. It is hilarious!

Keri Meets Raylin

My friend Keri, from Birmingham, came to see Raylin a couple of weekends ago and these are some snapshots of all of us. We had so much fun! It was great to see her and I was so excited that Raylin finally got to meet her mommy's crazy friend, Keri. I know the last picture kind of looks like Raylin didn't have a good time, but she really did. She just wasn't ready for Keri to put her to bed. Thanks for coming to MS Keri. We enjoyed your visit lots!!!

Raylin and I have been in Little Rock this week for a sales meeting. My mother went with us to keep Raylin. I believe she may be a homebody. She did not like being away from home. The first night she did okay, but she still got up twice during the night and she had only been getting up once. The second night was horrible. She did not want to go to sleep. My mama and I tried everything, even putting her in her stroller. I believe if it had not been snowing and sleeting, I would have resorted to putting her in the car and driving around to get her to fall asleep. We stayed at the Peabody Hotel so Raylin got to see the ducks. My mama has pics of her with the ducks so when I get them I will post them. We are now back home and so happy to be here. As soon as I put Raylin on her changing table, she just smiled so big. She loves to lay there and play and it was evident that she missed it. I'm pretty sure she missed her daddy too. Brigg went in there to get her after her nap when he got home from work and as soon as she saw him she smiled so big and just cooed. It was so sweet! If only I had my camera then!!!

Raylin Already Talking

Raylin has started talking so big. Of course, it is in her own language and we do not understand it yet. But, it is so precious. She just coos all the time.

Raylin's Smiles

Raylin has just started smiling and I have tried to capture some of these smiles on camera. This last picture of her in the hooded towel is my favorite!!! She is so cute when she smiles. She is beginning to develop a personality. I think she is going to be quite independent.

Raylin in her Bumbo Seat

Look at my sweet baby. She is so advanced. This bumbo seat is for 3 months - six months and Raylin is only 5 1/2 weeks and look at her sitting up like a big girl.
