Little Miss Fancy

OK, so this new business has kept me a little busy. I have not posted in a while. I have spent an endless amount of hours working on my website, creating new bows and headbands, and filling orders. I have been busy, and I can't believe Christmas is almost here. After this weekend, I have 4 more orders to fill, and then I am taking a break for a few days to get ready for our holiday travels to PA and just relax. So hopefully, I can get caught up on everything.

Rylee's 1st Kindergarden play

Rylee's school puts on several plays each year. This year it was kindergarden's turn. She had been walking around singing for weeks. We were so excited to see her little play. The whole event lasted 7 minutes. Brad and I couldn't believe it was so short. She did a great job, and the kids were so cute. The pictures are a little dark, but I couldn't resist posting them.

Her turkey hat kept falling down over her eyes. We were trying to get her attention to push it up, but she didn't see us.

Kamryn and her sisters

I loved these pictures of Kamryn. They were taken on November 20. I have been so behind on posting. But I still wanted to share them. She is getting so big and developing such a cute personality. I just love her to death. She is so sweet.

The girls love their baby sister.

Cereal not quite a big hit!

Well,we started cereal, but she wasn't too interested. More came out then went in. She didn't seem to crazy about it. But we kept giving it a try. It ended in tears.

Kamryn is 4 months old

Wow, how time flies. It feels like I was just pregnant, and Little Miss is already 4 months old, well actually 18 weeks. We went to see Dr. Allegretti today for her well-check. She is getting so big. Dr. Allegretti said everything looked great and that she was perfect. She weighed 15 pounds 8 oz. and was in the 90% percentile for her weight. She was 25 1/4 inches long and in the 80% percentile for height. Her growth chart looked great. She is now finally in her crib. I decided Sunday night was the big night. She stayed in our room much longer than Rylee or Sydney. I had such a hard time moving her. She is rolling back to front and front to back. She is becoming more expressive, and I found several ticklish spots. She is just such a good baby. I adore her. My heart just melts when she sees me and smiles. I love it. Tomorrow we will begin cereal. I am sure I will get some cute pictures to post.

Halloween 2008

Our Halloween started off with quite a trick. On Thursday night, our doorbell rang at about 10:00 pm. I was a little startled, and refused to answer it. We had just received letters from our HOA that there have been recent break-ins, so I was a little nervous. Brad went to the door to find to crazy women dressed-up but refusing to talk. Brad said, "You are a little early for Trick-or-Treating." They still didn't talk, so he started to back away from the door, and I started moving further up the stairs. After several minutes, we heard them say, "Brad." It turned out to be my mom and mother-in-law. They were suppose to arrive on Halloween right around dinner time just in time to go trick-or-treating. They decided to surprise us. I can't believe they were both able to keep the secret. We talked for hours about their little surprise. The girls were so excited, and I was greatful for the extra help.





On Friday, Nana took Rylee to the bus stop. Later in the day, both grandma's were able to go have lunch with her at school. Rylee was really excited about that. Since I had help, I was then able to go to Rylee's classroom for her party. It was exciting to see her at school.





After the bus stop in the afternoon, we got ready for our 2nd annual block party. We all brought lots of food and socialized until trick-or-treating began. Brad stayed home to hand out the candy, and my mom and I took the girls around the neighborhood. Sydney kept saying, "Are we going to get more candy?" Kamryn slept for the first part of the evening. We had such a nice weekend, and are so lucky to have such great moms to gave us a great surprise. Thank you so much and we love you both.

Church Dedication

We made it home for the first time in months to have the girls dedicated at church with all our family. The morning started out rough, both Sydney and myself were not feeling the best. Brad's mom, grandmother, sister and kids came were able to come up to be with us too. Randy prepared a nice service and the girls did well up front. We are so lucky to have such a wonderful family. Thank you to everyone for coming to share this special day with us. After church, we went out to dinner. The service was extremely slow, but it gave us all time to hang out longer together before we had our 6 hour drive back to Virginia.
