Mirror Mirror on the Wall

Warning: Super Cute Baby Video...love this video of Savannah talking to her reflection & giving herself some lovin' : )

Welcome Home JuJu!

For those of you who didn't know, our sweet kitty of 5 years went missing 3 1/2 weeks ago. We spent a week walking the streets, calling her name, talking to neighbors, visiting animal shelters & crying ourselves to sleep (yep). We were devastated. Well, last night I got a text from an unknown number asking if we were missing a cat named Juliette. We couldn't believe it! The guy lived just one street behind us & so we ran over there! (Savannah had just about gone to sleep & we just grabbed her, sleepsack & all!) Juliette was totally scared, had lost a lot of weight (but that is kinda a good thing...working out & eating right isn't a priority for her), but other than that looked just fine! Thank you God! Our little family is finally complete again.

Savannah wouldn't go to sleep after that, she was so excited to have her sister home. And Juliette was so excited to be home that she let Savannah pet her as much as she wanted : )

Papa Chair, Mama Chair, Baby Chair

We'd been wanting these chairs from World Market & they finally went on sale! We hadn't seen the little chairs before, but they had one red one we saw as we were checking out...it was meant to be! (And our red chairs match our red door : )

10 Months

Savannah's first summer is flying by! And we are enjoying every second! We've been hitting the pool, going to Ranger's games, & getting sun. Little Savannah is standing by herself all of the time now. She'll take one step, but that's it...please take your time baby girl! Her crawling is insanely fast (I can't keep up with her!) And Bran has finally had to child-proof cabinets because she wants to open everything she can reach & pull everything out. She's gotten to where she is actually running in her walker-so cute! She loves music & will stop what she's doing when she hears it. I've been watching some Glee reruns because there is nothing on t.v. in the summers & she LOVES the singing & dancing. Can't wait until she's dancing with me! And she loves to read, especially her Princess Baby books; she'll dig those specifically out of the book pile. She's eating 3 meals a day (mostly fruits, sometimes a spoonful of meat mixed in or some veggies.) She's up to 18 pounds! (Yay! Dr. Garza will be proud!) She's a big fan of her Daddy & smiles so big when he comes home from work. And of course loves her Mamma-nothing like hearing her say "mamma" as she reaches for me! She's making new sounds all of the time (some sound just like words). Our favorite is one that sounds like a yodell-it's awesome! Her hair is getting longer & flips out at the end-we love it! Oh Savannah, our lives are so much better because you are with us!

Baby Food!

I've been making as much of Savannah's baby food as possible. I put her on the counter with baked apple pieces this week & that girl turned in to such a sweet, sticky mess! Her hair was stiff & spiky from playing with the sugary mess & then rubbing it in her hair. Straight to the tub for that little girl!
