It was very rainey so we stayed in the house to avoid all of the crazy people who would be out on the roads!

My Baby Clothes Boutique

Last Chance Sale - 10% off everything - no minimums. Started yesterday!!!!! Ends Jan. 2nd Spread the word..... Time to get new clothes for the new arrivals! I am even more pleased than ever with My Baby Clothes Boutique and let me tell you why! Last Tuesday I found the most beautiful dress on the holiday clearance sale for Sagey. I ordered it in next years size because it was almost noon and Christmas Even was Friday. Well, we are sitting in our living room preparing for Christmas on Christmas Eve and we have a knock on the door. It is the mail carrier with the box from My Baby Clothes Boutique. These people got my order to me before Christmas, I am still in shock. That shows that this is a carrying company! If you haven't shopped with them before now is the time to do it! They have precious baby socks, tutus, baby headbands, and baby hats!

Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve was so much fun since Sagey is here! It was last Christmas when we finally announced that we were going to be having a baby, so having her with us this year made it even more special! We woke up super early on Christmas Eve and went to pick up some last minute gifts. We also went searching for some pecans that were already shelled, but everyone was already sold out. We finished our shopping, ate some breakfast, and headed home!

One of my favorite things about the holidays is cooking all day day on Christmas Eve. I made tons of treats: sausage balls, turtles, cinnamon pecans, Gooey Butter Cake, and Chex Mix Blizzard. I cooked all day! Mom came and asked if Sagey could go spend the day with her and Pop and I let her go. I got almost all of my washing finished, the house picked up, and a 30 minute nap!

Around 7 P.M. we headed to Granny's. It is a tradition for us to open gifts there really late. We had a great time with family! Robyn and I got a new wireless printer! Sagey got an outfit, light up aquarium, and toy. Lolly brought her a photo album and book there! Robyn and I gave Sagey her Christmas Eve pajamas! It is tradition in our family for everyone to get pajamas on Christmas Eve and wear them that night!

We stayed the night with Granny and Sagey did great!

Tooth Number 2

Brynley Sage already has tooth number 2! I found it Monday morning! My precious baby got 2 teeth in 5 days! And to top it off, had her ears pierced in between! I sure hope Santa is EXTRA good to my little angel! She sure deserves it after all this, and she hasn't even been fussy!!

Santa's Wonderland

Sunday we took Brynley Sage and Addy Brooke to see Santa at his Wonderland at the Bass Pro Shop in Leeds. Everyone else was there, too... The line was wrapped around the store. They gave out passes and we had a 3 hour wait. Not good when you didn't bring a stroller and you have a baby who wants to sit straight up. I fixed Brynley's car seat so she could sit straight up by putting blankets behind her! Then out of the blue a woman was standing beside me asking if the girls were twins. I told her no. She just kept on and on about how beautiful they were. In a minute she was back with a ticket to see Santa right then! Yes, that precious woman saved us!!! We were able to walk right up to Santa, and only waited about an hour total! We ended up getting tons of pictures! We will definitely go back next year, except I will take off during the week to take her!

Pierced Ears

Saturday was the big day to take Sagey to get her ears pierced! I was as nervous as could be. Lolly, Granny Bob, myself, and Robyn all went for Sagey's big day!!! We picked out some cute earrings, then I sat in the corner while Lolly held her. She cried for about 2 minutes after she got her ears pierced, and has been fine ever since. Her daddy went CRAZY when he saw his baby crying. He said he had never felt like that before, but it killed him to see her in pain. Her earrings look super cute on her! I am glad we went ahead and had them done while she was so small!

First Tooth

Thursday we found your first tooth coming in! You love to rub your tounge up against it! You are becoming such a big girl way to fast! I have been thinking you were teething because you have been drooling so heavily! Now we know why!

Sagey's First Thanksgiving

We are so excited that tomorrow will be Sagey's first Thanksgiving. I remember last Thanksgiving we were all sitting around talking and the question of when I was going to have a baby came up. Robyn and I planned to try in January, but little did we know I was already pregnant! This year I have thought about what I am thankful for a lot. I am so thankful for my baby girl who I love more than I could ever imagine. I am thankful that God gave me the opportunity to carry a child and that I was able to experience a wonderful pregnancy! I am thankful for my husband who helps me so much. He has been sick and I really did not realize how much he actually does until he couldn't help me . I am thankful for a mother and grandmother who love Sagey and help us out with her so much. I just hope Sagey has the same bond with me and my mom that I have with my mom and grandmother. I am also thankful for my father who was there by me throughout labor----not delivery..lol ... He has so much love for this little girl! I am thankful that I have a wonderful job, work with people who I get along with great, and that I look forward to going to work each day to be with my precious 1st graders who make my day by telling me how they love Brynley! I am very thankful that I am able to see the world through what I call "Mommy Eyes." Once this precious baby was born everything in the world started looking different to me!

Pictures

Last Saturday we had Brynley's 3 month pictures made, and our picture for our Christmas card. They turned out great. While Brynley was posing, she fell over in a flower and scratched her little face, but she was a real trooper!

Sagey Rolls Over

Last night my mom, Robyn and I were all around Sagey's crib watching her play. She was extremely hyper so Robyn got the video recorder to film her. Out of the blue she rolled from her belly to her back, while he was filming! I thought it was a freak accident until she did it again! She is growing so fast! She is the most precious thing and means the world to us!

3 Months

It seems like you were just born yesterday! I wish I could freeze time and make these times last forever. You are so much fun right now! You are such a good girl! You sleep throught the night now and are always in bed by 9 o'clock! I was asleep one night and Daddy was changing you, I heard, "Da Da" as loud as could be. I got up quickly and couldn't believe that you talked to him! Then a few days later you starting saying "I Love You" when we say it. You have had so many big moments in the last month. Yesterday I laid you on Granny Bob's couch and you scooted your legs and arms from one end of the couch to the other! I thought it was just a freak incident until you did it again when we got home and today!

Life must have been so boring without you! You light up my life. I look at everything different since you came into my life! My world revolves around you! Daddy calls you Queen B because you rule the house now!

You eat 5 1/2 oz of formula. You will only drink out of Drop In bottles.

You love to jump in the Jumparoo at Granny's house.

You weigh 12lbs and 12 oz. and are 23 1/2 inches long.

I let you sit up in your stroller today at Target. I put toys in front of you and you smiled and played! You loved looking around!

You can now crawl over your bobby pillow. You love to lay on it for a few minutes and play with your ball and look at yourself in the mirror, but when you get tired, you just move yourself.

Mommy threw her first real mommy fit at daycare when I walked in and a man was in the room taking care of you.

You dressed as a ladybug for Halloween. You looked so cute!

CSN Review

Since the baby is here I decided I need to start looking for some children's luggage for her, since her Mommy and Daddy love to travel! I naturally looked at my favorite place to shop, CSN, first! There are so many cute suitcases to choose from , I don't know how I will ever pick! I love the super cute Going to Grandma's suitcase because I had one when I was a little girl. I have looked everywhere for one of these, and can't believe I didn't look at CSN first!

CSN has super fast shipping, which means luckily I will recieve the luggage in time for a Christmas gift for the baby! Many items ship for free! Check out CSN for all of your holiday shopping! I plan on staying home and enjoying my little one this holiday season, and doing my shopping at home with CSN!

Catching Up

I have barely had anytime to blog since Brynley Sage was born. I love having a little family.We have started calling Brynley , Sagey. She looks when we call her by her sweet nickname. This week she went up to 5 1/2 oz. of formula. On Sunday we took her to the Pumpkin Patch for the first time. It was way too hot for her. We ended up having to take of her little pants, so she would be able to cool down. We picked our a pumpkin, and left.

Sagey is such a happy girl. She loves to talk to us! She smiles so much now, and she is wanting to sit up so she can see everything. Playing on her playmat is still one of her favorite things to do. She has started to pull her blankee to her face when she sleeps. She is growing so fast, we can't believe it! I love her more and more every day!

CSN REVIEW

CSN stores have over 200 online stores where you can find anything you need from a stylish handband, to a chic bar stool. Anything you want is just a click away! I could sit for days and look at all CSN has to offer, if I had the time. My favorite thing about CSN is the shipping, as I have said before. The shipping is always super fast , and lots of times it is free. It is so convenient to have my items delivered right to my door!

With the baby here, I have been looking for a stylish new diaper bag, and I have found a super cute one at one of the CSN stores! I can't wait to have this bag to carry around! I love the fall colors, and the coated outside cover!

So , head on over to CSN , you will be very happy that you did!

8 Weeks

Wow, how time flies. It seems like yesterday you were born. I never in the world could have imagined how wonderful being your mommy would be. The last 8 weeks have been the hardest 8 weeks of my life, but they have also been the most rewarding. I love you more than I can express. Your smile lights up my life. Some nights you sleep well, some you don't. A few nights ago you were up a lot. I had to go to school the next morning, and I was super tired. Tears were running down my face and you started laughing at me. That brought a smile to my face. You are so much fun now, you will laugh and smile when you are naked. You love your naked time. You also laugh and smile when we talk to you and for no reason at all. I love when you smile in your sleep.

You went to the beach for your first time. I was too afraid to take you out on the beach, so you just wore your bathing suit in the room. You looked so precious. You have been staying with Granny Bob this week while Mommy works. I think you like all the attention she gives you! Everytime Lolly talks to you , you go crazy like it is the best thing in the world. You are growing up way to fast..

You weigh 10 lbs and 14 oz.

You are 23 1/4 inches long.

You drink between 4-5 oz of formula now.

You love to play! You kick your feet as hard as you can.

You try to talk to us all the time, I love our little conversations!

You got 4 shots and an oral vaccine today. Mommy cried more than you did.

Your legs are so strong, you push off of everything. Daddy says you are going to be a soccer player.

You are a good shopper! You are always good while we shop, and fall asleep sometimes.

The hardest thing Mommy has done is leaving you to go back to school. My class helps me though, because several times each day they say, "Mrs. Canady, we love Brynley." It is the most precious thing !

1 Month September 12, 2010

Brynley Sage,

I can't believe how quickly the last month has flown by. It has literally been the fastest month of my life. I never thought that my love for you could grow more that it already was the day you were born, but each and everyday it gets stronger. You are the most precious baby ever. You barely even cry when you have a dirty diaper. You love when Mommy holds you on my chest, and you curl up! This melts my heart. I love watching you and daddy together. He loves you so much and it is so precious. He takes care of you for mommy sometimes, and he even took you to town with him one day, just the two of you. You give Mommy fits at night sometimes, but I know that one day I am going to miss these days. I love you so much my precious love!

CSN STORES REVIEW

CSN Stores features 200+ stores with one easy checkout where you can find everything from coffee tables to baby accessories! I started shopping with CSN while pregnant. I didn't feel like going out and searching for what I needed for Brynley's nursery and I found out I could go to CSN and type in what I needed and it would pop right up! I could order and in a few days the delivery man would bring it right to my door, and I never had to leave the house!

My favorite thing about CSN is their super quick shipping. It seems like everytime I order I find out that my shipping has been upgraded and I will be recieving my items sooner. CSN also has free shipping on tons of items!

Now that the baby is here I will be looking for new home decor and I plan on shopping CSN for household items, and especially a new coffee table that will be safer than the one I have for when she starts walking!

Check out CSN and you will be so happy that you did!
