My 34th Birthday 5-21-09

I had the best birthday!! My mom, sister & Logan came up for 2 days, which in itself was a GREAT birthday present. My mom made me the BEST cupcakes. all homemade including the butter cream icing...OMG delicious!! I usually ask for strawberry cake every year..since I was old enough to talk..but this year I had nothing but cupcakes on the brain. OK.....enough about the food, well lunch at Carino's was scrumptious!
After lunch we did a little shopping (well window shopping) at one of my favorite little shops called " Decor & More"...which I love. I soooo wanted this dress form which was so cute.......but I need to get my craft space together first (& get some $$)..which I am working on this weekend!! I am hoping..I can go back & get it!

Next,came the beautiful presents...thanks everyone that took the time..to think about what I would like & get it for me. My mother-in-law Sandie calls me every year and sings (with her beautiful voice) happy birthday..I love that, always makes me smile. I have a lot of pics to post. My hubby had to work (thanks honey...for working so hard for me & Rylee) so that's why he's not in the pics...! Please enjoy...the ones of Rylee are GORGEOUS!!

Awww......Keith Jr.!

Love it...

This is by far...is one of my favorite pics. It was so hot outside, so I decided to put her in nothing but a diaper & her mohawk ......hehe . I wanted to show everyone my "little chunky monkey" ...just one of our 50 names we have for her..hehe!! AND SHE LOOKS LIKE HER DADDY :0)!!

Mother's Day

My 1st Mother's Day...WOW! I have been looking forward to this day for a LONG time. Waiting to have a baby @ 33 years old..might not be a long time for some people...but for me it was! I remember calling my sister last Mother's Day (or the year before??) and just crying about not being a mommy yet! It was always hard for me to sit back and watch all my friends or family.... "share their news" and have a Mother's Day!! I wanted to join that club..., but most of all....I wanted to be able to hold, kiss, squeeze, sing to,rock this little person Keith and I created, a blessing that GOD has in trusted me with, she by far is more than I could have ever imagined. BLESSED BEYOND MEASURE...is what I like to say!

Keith, was so sweet...I went up stairs and when I came down he had 2 cards on the bed, 1 from him & 1 from Rylee. So sweet..the 1 from Rylee..he actually wrote"mommy" like a little kid..which was the sweetest thing...I CRIED!!

Me & my sweet baby doll!! The best present of all!

P.S. - Will have a Mother's Day blog #2....still have a few things to post. (Gifts & cards from my family)!

Rylee 5 Months..

It's hard to believe it's already been 5 months and we are on our way to 6! She is now eating cereal..about to start her on veggies & fruits this week. She just started rolling all the way over on her stomach and is trying very hard to sit-up on her own. Oh...and the fun part...TEETHING!! :O)

We are truly blessed...she is a great baby. She never cries..only fussy when she's hungry, wet or wants to be picked up!! Everyone tells me she is the best baby they have ever been around...what a compliment!!

Easter Dress

Let's just say trying to get these few pics...were NOT fun. This was the best we could do!! They were actually taken after Easter...since the weather was horrible..we had to take inside!

But...she sure does look BEAUTIFUL!!!
