7 Months

By
Our little beauty is 7 months old!
As I type she is chewing on my arm.  =)
Last night was very exciting, for me at least.
Every night John reads a few more chapters of a book we are reading (right now is catching fire) to me and she was up late and out of nowhere she said, "Mama"!!!!
Eeeeeek!
Then she did it again!!!
It's about time!  Let's just say we stopped reading for a mini celebration.
And today in her crib, she called me!
It always amazes me how babies go from not knowing how to do something and doing it once and then they can do it again and again.
Today she also told me "hi".
I always look at her and say "hi!!" whenever I walk into a room or just anytime she looks at me.  So as always I said, "Hi!" and she responded!
It wasn't a clear "hi" but after she did it again twice I am confident that is what she is saying.
She is progressing so quickly.
The boys, who normally spoil her are turning out to be great disciplinarians.
Mostly because they are so worried about her getting hurt.
They are firm, but loving when they take her hand away from a chord etc. and say, "No Amalia!"
No pictures this post, I am busy getting ready for the weekend.
TGIT!!!
Happy 7 months little angel! We are so proud of you!

This is the moment we have both been waiting for for years! It was perfection. Nothing short of magical. We had quite a bit of time after getting ready, there were so many emotions, so happy I laughed, so happy I cried. I love these photos and am so happy that every moment was captured.  Can't wait to see the professional ones!                                 Waiting for the go ahead                                         It's time!!                              Everyone ready t...

Long Awaited

By
Ethan has had the typical "little brother" problems. A huge one being that he has been going to all Kaidens scouting activities for 2 years and couldn't participate. Being the observer of your bigger brother having fun... not so much fun. Then we had the move to Dubai, so what should've been his first year, wasn't. He was so excited and was all smiles at his very first scouting event where he could participate! I can't get over how cute and official he looked in his uniform. He took every belt loop he earned extremely seriously. It's also weird to see Kaiden in his webelo uniform, I always saw it as for the "bigger boys". I guess my little Kaiden is one of the big boys now.

Rachael Emily-Baby Naming

By
The hardest part about having a child for me is finding a name.  I have been dreading the naming process, that is why we started so early. I didn't get a name for Ethan until I went into labor and was hoping that would not be the case this time. I am a super organized control freak kind of person so it has been stressing me out. We decided to go to Barnes and Noble to give it another try.  While searching, and hating every name, I re-suggested a name that I have loved for a long time and we decided! Yay! I was SO excited! I still am so excited. I never would've guessed we would find a name so soon. For now I will announce the middle names and save her name for her birth announcement.  The middle names are Rachael Emily. Rachael is to honor my lovely sister that passed 8 years ago.  She is my heart. Emily is my little sisters middle name, and she is my everything. My 2 favorite people balled up into one precious angel, our daughter. =) Celebrate with a pum...
