Words cannot describe...

You will just have to watch these videos to see for yourself! The first video is one I captured yesterday of her watching a Baby Einstien video on my iphone! Apparently it tickeled her little funny bone! The second video is from this morning. Amelia wanted to wear her red tights and dance in front of the TV while watching Dora! This child is all the entertainment anyone needs! She is so funny!

Amelia's First Trip to the Zoo

I am a little behind on posting these pictures but I still thought they were worth sharing! We brought Amelia to the Zoo this past saturday and what an experience that was! Along with the rest of the entire population of Louisiana... we thought it was an ideal day for the zoo! Saturday + nothing but sunshine + Mid 60's + first gorgeous day we've had in a long time= CRAZINESS AT THE ZOO!!! There were so many people there, even I began to feel swallowed up by the crowds! Nonetheless, we endured and attempted to pry our way through the crowds so that our little Amelia could see all the animals!

She loved the monkeys and stared in amazement at the giant elephants! She would point to all the animals and say "Cow" because in her little 21 month old mind, every animal is a cow! =)

As the day went on, Amelia stopped caring about all the "cows"! All she really cared about doing was running away from us to find herself in the midst of the crowd! That makes for one very nervous momma who later turned in to one very angry momma with more spankings to give than any little girl would care to have! She just couldn't understand why she couldn't get down and walk around like everybody else! After that episode we went to Wal-Mart to purchase a child harness A.K.A kid leash! Hopefully that will make outings a little more enjoyable! In between her little tantrums, I managed to capture of few pictures of our day! Matt had the camera in hand most of the day and took pictures of every animal he saw! But don't worry, I have spared you the agony of looking at EVERY animal picture...I will only post the good ones! haha! I think he had more fun than Amelia! ; )

Me, Danielle, and Isabella...in the womb :)

Showered with blessings!

Just remember Isabella...She was my friend before she was your Mommy!

I got to spend this past weekend helping my sweet friend Danielle get ready for the arrival of Miss Isabella Grace, who is expected to make her grand entrance any day now!! Our church family in Gulf Shores threw a shower for her this weekend and Amelia and I just couldn't stand to miss out on the fun! I'm so excited for Brandon and Danielle! I know they will be wonderful parents and I can't wait to love on their new baby girl!
Those past couple of days were the ulitmate definition of a "girl's weekend", considering we talked more about nursing and nursing bras than any one man would care to know about! We had more fun organizing all the little girly things ( and trust me...their was A LOT to organize!) In a lot of ways, Danielle and I are so much alike. However, we totally differ in the way we prepared for Labor. I had my hospital bags packed and ready to go 2 months before my due date! I cleaned and vaccumed the house continually! Danielle, on the other hand didn't even know she needed one and rather than "nesting" she would prefer to be "resting" HAHA! Needless to say...between me, her momma, and grandmamas, we managed to get her butt in baby gear!! It was such a fun weekend!

Danielle's Mom and Grandmothers! We all had so much fun getting baby things done!

Don't think for two seconds that Amelia went without say in this whole eventful weekend. She wasn't so sure about this Isabella girl. She didn't quite understand why there were so many new and fun things to play with that she couldn't take home with her. Or, why all those presents weren't for her!

Hmmm... I'm not so sure about this girl!

The piggy bank she is holding was of course for baby Isabella but Amelia never wanted to put it down! At least she didn't break it! At Danielle's shower she fell in love with the cutest stuffed Giraffe and when we told her she couldn't keep it because it was for Bella she cried and wasn't too happy about it! Looks like mommy is going to be on the hunt for this little Giraffe!

Balloons make me happy!

It really was a great weekend! Now, we are just waiting on Isabella to arrive! Hurry up little one! We can't wait to meet you!
