Elsa at 10 weeks

Double digits already?!? *Sigh* It won't be long before I make the switch to telling people how many months old Elsa is instead of how many weeks.  It also won't be long before she doesn't fit in the basket either. :)

I tried propping her up a bit today and she seemed to like it. She's got good head control except when she doesn't. Freaks me out when all of a sudden her head flops over and hits me in the face. Ouch!


She smiles so easily now and the cooing. Oh the cooing!  Twice this past week she's slept 9 hours in a row. Of course I don't get that much sleep because I stay up 2-3 hours after she goes to bed between 7 and 8, but I'm so happy she's developing good sleep habits so early.

She's really into chewing/sucking on her fists/fingers all of a sudden. It's lovely and allows her to sit for longer stretches without needing me.

She and I did some garage sale-ing yesterday. It was a slower pace than I'm used to, but we found this cute dress she's wearing and some winter clothes. I bought 12 month things even though she won't even be 6 months old when it's time for long sleeves, but as you can tell, she's growing, growing, growing

Growing cuter by the minute too if you ask me!

"How can I help?"

So many have asked how they can help MckMama and her family during this difficult time and so I've set up a Care Calendar to help coordinate meals for the family. MckMama is coordinating childcare on her end, but you can contact me for the rest. Please leave me a comment in this message and I will contact you with more information on the Care Calendar as soon as I am able. Please be sure I can get in touch with you through your blog and/or an email address. Thank you for covering my dear friend and her family with prayers!

Elsa's Birth Story

The morning of July 1st started out like all the other mornings this summer. The kids let me sleep until 7:30 and then came in to wake me up. We ate breakfast and I started picking up around the house. We had spent the previous day at the town pool and because the heat index was going to be just as high again we made plans to go to our beach. The kids really wanted to practice their swimming skills but I didn't want to have to pay for the pool again. At 8:30 I lost my mucus plug and my brain started running a mile a minute. Could this mean we're getting close? Could I actually go early for a change?I turned to Google and learned that labor could be hours or days away. I feel I should warn you - if you decide to Google mucus plug be prepared to see photographic proof. Why people felt the need to post pictures to Google images is beyond me!  Moving on..... Just in case I ended up being one of the lucky ones who only had hours to wait until labor started I kept up with my clean

Shabby Apple Giveaway!

Spring is in the air and that means it's time to start thinking about changing over our closets from Winter to Spring. I don't know about you, but that also means it's time to look for a few new pieces to bring new life to what I wear year after year. Today I can make that job a little more fun for you because Shabby Apple is sponsoring a giveaway on my blog! Yeah!!!! I had so much fun looking through their collection of women's dresses and don't even get me started on their adorable line of little girl's dresses ! It's a whole new ballgame for me now that I'm going to have TWO girls to dress. In the end I decided to pick this beauty called Azure Coast to giveaway to one lucky reader because us mom's are always buying things for our kids before ourselves. I just might have to pick up one for myself in time to wear for BabyBear's baptism this summer. It's perfect for nursing moms! Want to win one for yourself? See below , but if you d
