Grammy Visit!

As part of Daddy's birthday, he wanted to go to Memphis to play his war game with his buddies. I don't think that Mommy realized he was going to be gone 3 full days and 3 nights but anyways my Grammy came to visit and take care of me Friday!

She was suppose to have a phone conference on Friday morning but I screamed with laughter throughout the whole thing! So Mommy, had to stay home with me until it was over.

Oil Detox Anyone?

So after our last visit to HairClub, Chrissy claims that she did this detox and it pulled toxins from her body and whitened her teeth.

Jamie and I decided to try it. You take 1 teaspoon of EVOO and 1 teaspoon of Sunflower oil and swoosh for 20 minutes.

After 13 minutes, I almost puked so I spit mine out. Jamie lasted the whole 20 minutes. It taste like a whole lot of sunflower seeds that are kinda burnt. When we spit it out, it wasn't black like the internet claimed just oily looking! We didn't feel any better and our teeth weren't any whiter! However, we are both breastfeeding mothers so I am not sure how many toxins we actually have in our bodies currently?

But for now we will let Chrissy continue to cut our hair and leave her crazy witch potions at the salon!

Can you see my teeth?

Here is Addie acting silly after a diaper change. She is wearing her shorts on her head!!
I think that maybe you can see the two teeth here?

Happy 20th Uncle Randy and 30th Daddy!

One of the fun things about our families, is that we all share summer birthdays.
Mommy- June 4th
Ma- June 10th
Uncle Randy- July 14th
Daddy- July 16th
Grammy- August 1st
Pa- August 8th (I think?)

Then Addie, Uncle Nub and Poppy all have fall birthdays.

Daddy is exactly ten years older than Uncle Randy. Last Sunday, we had birthday lunch with
Randy, and Grammy at Olive Garden.

On Monday, we let Daddy open his presents early because it was Mommy's day off. I love wrapping paper and boxes.

Are we ready to sleep through the night?

Yes I know that most of you thinking, "your baby is almost 8 months and she isn't sleeping through the night yet?" Well the answer to that is NO!

From the birth of Miss Adalynn, she has been a great sleeper. But just couldn't make it through the night. For the longest time, she would only get up once. Then through the teething month it was a lot 2, 3 or 4 times.

In the last week, she has slept through the night twice. I was very surprised when I woke up this morning and it was 8:30 and Addie was not in our bed. This is super exciting but also sad that she is growing up so fast.

I have 2 teeth!!

Officially, Addie has two teeth now. I have not been able to get a picture of them yet.
But I will keep trying. She has been biting me while nursing, not real happy about that!!! Hopefully this will give her some temporary relief until the next teeth come in.

Happy 30th Birthday Daddy!!!

We celebrated Jeremy's 30th Birthday this Saturday night with his friends.

I decided to host a murder mystery dinner theater for Jeremy's birthday. I wanted it to be a surprise but there was no way that I was going to pull this off, and work and care for an infant. Jeremy chose the 20's themed, mafia, Italian- speakeasy murder. We visited Party City and bought some decor and we were ready. Everyone brought a dish to complete our Italian potluck. We converted our foyer/dining room into the lounge and dance floor. The living room became the dining area, the breakfast nook was the gambling table. We also discovered that our whirlpool tub makes a fabulous ice chest. We put two bags of ice in the bottom, then sat the drinks in with a layer of rock salt and then covered the drinks with eight additional bags of ice. We all had a great time.

As for Addie, she spent a few hours with Jamie's mom and dad, and Maebrie. I am not sure what they did to her but she slept all night, woke up at 7 and ate and then went back to sleep until 10. Maybe they should keep her more often!!!
