Life with Poe: Almost 11 months old!

Image
Happy New Year!! Another month has gone by and our little Poe is turning into quite the ham! She is a little show off and LOVES the attention. She claps, dances, and makes silly faces. She is such a nut and I love it cause she makes me laugh all the time. Her little laugh is funny too so then it makes me laugh even more. Her new thing is dancing and she love the Subway "Five dollar foot long" song it hilarious! Christmas was a whole new experience this year. The preparation and new traditions for my own baby was so much fun. She opened maybe half of one gift but seems to like all her toys she got. She got mostly Fisher Price toys, very colorful and durable! She got some Lala loopsies, a princess castle, a walking toy, Hello Kitty Vans (shoes), tons of clothes, and a new coat. She was very blessed this year. Christmas Eve we spent half the evening at my parents and the other half at Jeremiah's. Christmas Day we opened gifts together as a little family in the morning ...

Life with Poe: Updates

Image
It's been almost two months since I have posted anything here on le' blog! We have since found a house and moved in! I love it! It's so warm and cozy. It's located on a quiet street and is just perfect for our little fam. Poesy is such a silly little girl she is growing all the time almost weighs 14 lbs now. She is still itty bitty but her personality makes up for it. Milestones & New Discoveries : * Poesy's is now able to eat her solid foods a lot better now without the acid reflex bothering as much * Her favorite foods so are bananas and carrots * She is still fitting in 6-9 months clothes and can still fit into some 0-3 months! * She still only has 2 little teeth on the bottom * She loves kids! * Poe is standing up all by herself and sometimes takes one step * Her and Little Bear are starting to play together and it's the cutest thing * I gave her her fist haircut 12/4/2013 -- just a tiny trim in the back * She is a climber and a littl...

Things that make me happy...

Oh my gosh! I just love this time of year. We are having such a beautiful season change. The leaves are looking fabulous and amazing much more this year than the years past. They remind me of rainbow snow cones the way the colors blend together and of the trees when I lived in North Carolina. I am wanting to take Poe to the pumpkin patch this weekend and get her a Poesy-sized pumpkin and a mini photo shoot of her in her costume. These are the types of things I have been looking forward to since I found out I was pregnant and maybe even before that. I love having a daughter to take places with me, it's so fun. She comes with me to my knitting and crochet groups and is loved by all the kind ladies and the kids too. It's so nice that they welcome me with open arms even if I have a baby. I know some people don't like kids or like things to be strictly for adults so it is nice for me to be able to do something I love and spend my day off with my baby too. On anoth...

Life with Poe: 7 Months Old

Poesy Quinn is in full on crawling mode! Getting into things she shouldn't be and sitting up from the crawling position on her own. Watching her learn to crawl was really fun to watch. From the rocking back and forth stage to her moving faster every day. She is still a little peanut and weighs just a little over 12 pounds so her being so tiny and crawling is extra cute to me. This month we took her to have her picture taken. I wasn't impressed by the photographer this time but we were able to get a few cute shots of her and her daddy. Milestones & New Discoveries : * Poesy's acid reflux is back and we had to slow down on her solid foods :( * She is drooling at the sight of food and drinks * She is officially wearing 6-9 month clothing * She got two new teeth!!! They are the cutest little teeth too :) * She is becoming more social with other kiddos * She is at the stage where she is alert and does not want to go to bed and throws fits * She likes to thr...

Life with Poe: 6 month update!

Image
My sweet lovebug turned 6 months on the 21st! She is very mobile these days rolling around like a little tumbleweed and she is pretty good at it . Her teething seems to be bothering her mostly in the evening and at bed time but it hasn't been too bad. It does make me sad to know that she doesn't feel good and her sad face is enough to make anyone cry but it's soo cute at the same time. She is still being babysat by my mom, Jeremiah's dad, and my sister occasionally while we work. How blessed we are to have people we trust take care of our baby Poe. She is blooming into such a gorgeous little person and everyday just looking at her I feel so proud to be her mommy. Milestones & New Discoveries : * Poesy is now eating cereal - slowly getting used to it still but she likes it! * She is still a major drooler. * Her newborn sized shoes STILL don't fit her yet, this kid is going to be wearing sandal in winter! (NOT!) * She loves chewing on everything! * H...

On the hunt for a house to call home...

Zillow, Remax, Craiglist, Newspapers, Auto Feeds, Friends, Family, & Realtors, You name it! We are scouring our little town looking up and down for a new house to buy. It doesn't have to be perfect or fancy but it has to just feel right. We are looking for 3 bedrooms, a decent sized kitchen with appliances, and a yard for our Poe to play in. We have looked at a lot of houses and saw 9 in 2 hours this past Saturday. That was actually kinda fun except for the fact that it was blazin' saddles outside! Tonight we are looking at 3 more houses and I am hoping we see something we like. This is going to be our little starter home and I can't wait to get into something and not have to move again for at least 5 years. I'm ready to hang up my gypsy get-up and stay put for awhile and just make a million good memories with my little family:) Here are some homes and quotes that keep me inspired while I continue on my search! (all from Pinterest, of course!)

Life with Poe: 5 month update.

Slow and steady wins the race!! Poesy had her appointment last Friday and she now weighs 10.13lbs. She has gained a just little weight but is still very healthy just teeny. I kind of like her this way, as long as she is healthy. Poe being tiny makes her stay a baby that much longer and I'm all for that! Today after her nap I found her completely turned around on her tummy lifting herself up with her arms. It was so cute! She is getting stronger, bigger, and more adorable everyday. Milestones & New Discoveries : * Poesy is offically teething!! SAD FACE!! * She is still drooling like crazy so I ordered her a Baltic Amber Teething necklace, I'm hoping it works for her. * She is talking more every day and laughs all the time now - LOVE IT! * Poe is growing out of her 3 months sleepers but can still wear some newborn onesies * Her feet are still so tiny her Newborn shoes are not fitting her yet * She is reaching out and grabbing anything she can get her little...
