Our Sunday.

Our Sunday started out with Bliss being super grumpy.
After a short nap she was back to usual happy morning baby.
Daddy and I had pancakes for breakfast while baby had apple & rice.
Daddy went to track to run his car and baby and momma stayed home to play around the house.
We went outside for a walk and seen Aunt Karah at the barn so we went and see her dillon and Dixie.
Took some picture of b and myself outside.
Now waiting for Daddy to bring home Olive Garden for dinner. Yummy!
It's has been a wonderful Sunday and so sad to see the weekend go by so fast.
Hopefully I will find a vehicle this week fingers crossed.

Life lately according to my iPhone pictures







4 months Old

Bliss,
You are 4 months old today baby, boy does time fly when you are in love and happy!
I have to say that this last month is been the by far the most enjoyable, you have changed so incredibly much its baffling. Daddy and I both agree that you know what is going on now, you have gained more control of you neck and you daddy says when he is holding you and you see me walk by you watch me walk away, or if I am not in the room you are looking around the room for me. You laugh more and more each passing day, just last night you were laughing in your sleep, while I was rocking you to sleep. You will talk my ears off!! I'm always wondering what you talking about.

You had a your 4 months check up yesterday; You weighted 14 pound and we're 25 and half inches long! You are going to be skinny and long like daddy. Your doctor confirmed that you have two teeth coming in at the same time, I noticed you gums where swollen and looked irritated, so that explains why you have been so grumpy lately. You also got shots and blood drawn yesterday and boy you we're upset, I was about in tears to see how much pain you were in. The doctor said you we're in the 90 percentile in height and only 40 in weight, but thats ok, cause you actually holding you food down now and gaining weight so that is great!!
That means since you we're born you have grown 5 inches and Gained almost 8 pounds. You go girl!

Whats new this month:

  • You are rolling over!! You go babe!
  • You are starting to scoot when you are rolled over.

  • You love riding the RZR.
  • When you get mad at me you do this thing now where its like your trying to bite. It's pretty funny.
  • You hate just sitting around; You want to be on the go at all times.
  • You going to sleep easier at night. 
  • You love for me to throw you up in the air, and to spin around really fast! 
  • You love to be outside!
  • I took you riding on the horses and you loved it!

You don't like:
  • Waiting for anything 
  • for me to get out of sight
  • To take naps
  • Getting out of the bath
  • Being cold or hot
  • Shots
  • Being alone
  • the dark
  • Your bed.
  • Momma to do anything but play or hold you.





This month has been amazing and I can't help but want to watch and play with every second of the day, Even when daddy gets home and tries to give me a break I still want to be right there with you.
You and your daddy have really connected this last month, You have always lighted up and been happy to see him but now you just watch his every move and smile the whole time you see him. Daddy says he can't wait till you get holder where you can go work on the cars with him and big enough to run to him and says daddyyyy when he comes home from work.
Every day you make mommas heart skip a beat Bliss, you can do know wrong even if you are screaming at me to make you bottle faster, fighting your nap, not letting me clean the house cause you want me to play with you, or just plain grumpy. I will always love you to the moon and back NO MATTER WHAT. You will be 30 years old and make me a grandmother and you will still be my baby, I know everyday won't be sunshine and rainbows but I love you thru thick and thin. You always be my heart and I can't live without my heart. 

Momma and daddy love you darlin always remember that. 
xo,
Momma

You complete me.

Days like this is what makes me really love being a stay at home momma. It's days like this that makes me so incredibly happy. There is nothing else in this world that I would be doing than holding my baby while she sleeps. Who needs a spotless house anyway? Who need to take a shower? Who needs to read her pile of books that are steadily stacking up? Yes, I need to clean and take a shower and would love to be able to read my books but as happy as that makes me doesn't come close to how happy bliss makes me.
She came into my world and has showed me what really matters in life. Love, and happiness. Bliss doesn't care about her toys or books, she is the happiest when we are laying in floor just looking and smiling at one another, in the short period of time that she has been her, she has taught me not sweat the small stuff and she just be happy in whatever I am doing and I love that about her. She has changed me completely and I love it.
I love you to the moon and back baby girl, Always & Forever.

Tarah

Bliss rolled over!!!

Bliss has been trying to roll over for the past couple of days but she didn't realize that see would have to move her arms are should would flop back over so she just kept flopping back over which was frustrating her so I kept pulling her arms up as she rolled and she finally got the hang of it because today January 3rd at 2:22 she rolled over and held herself with her hands and head in there air for a whole 5 minutes!!! This momma cried tears of happiness. After a little while she started pushing herself forward with her legs and feet, her hands slipped and she bumped her head on the floor, poor baby got so upset. Of course she was fine after momma picked her up, then I put her back down and she rolled right back over. I tried to record her at least 5 times and of course she wouldn't roll over when I was trying to recording. I can't believe she rolling over, won't be long now and she will be crawling and then walking! So crazy to think she will be walking before to long.
Well I'm off to clean Bliss is taking a nap, rolling around completely wore her out.
xo,
Tarah

Also, for Bliss; She is simply breath taking, she could do no wrong in my eyes. I love waking up to her smiling face, she is so beautiful and loving. I could go on and on about her!! Jerry and Bliss are my EVERYTHING! 
Can't wait to see what 2012 has in store for us!
