10 Months

This little girl is getting so hard to catch on camera these days. As shown in the photos crawling away as fast as she can!

I cannot believe my baby girl is already 10 months which means she is almost 1 years old. How did this happen!?

Mae has started copying noises and sounds we make to her. It is so fun to watch this little person interact with us. She loves to use her hand to make "blurble burble" noises. 

She loves when we hide under blankets, she always squeals and claps her hands. Clapping her hands is also a new talent of hers.

She is going through a little phase where she actually likes to cuddle every so often, not a ton but there are moments and boy are they magical! 

She loves to give me kisses, big wet messy ones that last for an awkward amount of time and I love almost every second of them haha. 

She still loves shoes, baby shoes, dad's shoes, but especially leather shoes. 

She is getting so good at walking around holding onto chairs or furniture, sadly it won't be long until she's walking I'm sure.

She still loves to be swaddled when she sleeps!

She is still just the sweetest girl!

9 Months

This little girl is getting so big and so curious, she is totally mama's girl she crawls around after me and whines at my feet. She loves chewing on shoes, and no I'm not describing my puppy I'm talking about my daughter!

She loves standing up on everything, walking along the coach or other things she it holding on to. 

She learned to crawl up stairs the first time she saw it.

She is eating a lot more solids.

She loves to growl really low until she start coughing, saying Da-Da, and spitting.

She has two little bottom teeth

Weighs 15 lbs

I turned 23 years old, and we also bought and moved into our very first home! Which we are loving, we have been here for two weeks now and it's been amazing.

Greek Inspired Headbands

5 Months

This little girl is 5 months old today. Also I realize I can't spell the word month or as I spell it mothns but guess what, hopefully you didn't even notice cuz she's so cute!! It is crazy how times goes by so fast, but at the same time I can't imagine a time without Mae in our lives. She is really filling out, she looks huge compared to her one month photos. She has lots of nice rolls and a plump round face that I kiss a million times a day.

She...

loves to stand

usually sleeps for 6 hours straight at night

love chatting it up at night

little wiggly worm

love to try and roll over but can't seam to get her arm out of the way

she loves to eat her feet

she whines when we kiss her toooo much which happens often

she has figured out how to wiggle to a different spot on the floor not far though

she is super smiley and giggly when we play with her

Big update is she started teething, yikes, she is a little fussy. Always rubbing her gums together or with toys, drooling like crazy. I'm sure we won't see any actual teeth for a while but the process has started!

Mae was having what our paediatrician thought might be seizures, at first we weren't too worried about them but after two months she 2 in one day. So off to the pediatric neurologist we went, he said she looked perfectly healthy but wanted to do an EEG to make sure her brain was functioning properly.  It was a pretty intense test, they hooked her up to 22 electrodes and then let her sleep and at the end put a strobe light in front of her face to try and induce weird brain activity or a seizure. All her tests came back perfectly normal so for now we are going to keep enjoying our perfect little daughter and follow up with the specialist if the episodes get more intense.

This little Piggy

Mae found her toes last week and I just love watching her play with them. She loves trying to get them in her mouth, so far only successful once but I'm sure soon she'll literally put a foot in her mouth! I love her so much in hurts my heart, I have been so weepy these past few days thinking about a fellow blogger who lost her son. Every moment with this little ones counts and I feel so blessed to have the time that I do with her. I have a hard time not being afraid she might be taken away from me too soon. I pray that doesn't happen and my heart goes out to all who have experienced a loss like that. 

4 Months

Mae is just getting funner and cuter. She doesn't look totally impressed in the above photo but I got cuter ones below!

Loving her toys

Her favourite toy is her orb ball

She started to laugh last week, melts my heard

She has been trying to roller over but can't seam to get her arm out of the way

She is now 11 lbs and 24.5 inches

She sleeps through the night

She loves standing on our laps!

This teddy bear is mine from when I was little and my Mom hand sewed it, I just love seeing her love it like I did!!

Little fashion show! Does she not just have the sweetest face!

Slick Fox

You guys I ordered some Slick Fox bibs from Europe and I want to tell you about them!

You can get 15% off with the code:

exp. 05/31/14

Your Slick Fox purchase will come in this beautiful wrapping!

The back is made of super soft unbleached bamboo fabric, which is naturally antibacterial. The inside of the bamboo fabric is looped towelling for extra absorbency, keeping baby’s chest dry. The outside has an incredibly lush pile for extra comfort and an oh-so-soft feel. I especially liked the antibacterial aspect since she would be slobbering on them continually!

I chose these three patterns, she usually has colours group together into sets but I wanted three different colours. So I just sent her a quick message and she was nice enough to make a custom order for me to purchase.

Don't forget to use this promo code when making your order!

CUTEST LITTLE DANCE

I don't know how to get the sound to work but she does this cute little coo at the end and then has a big hiccup its much better with sound.

Mae is three months! I can't believe how the time keeps flying by, this posts is a little. If you haven't already watched the video above you're missing out. She is really starting to wiggle around like crazy somewhere between trying to fly and swimming it's the cutest thing. She is also a lot more talkative.

Milestones:

- Almost able to play with some of her rattles.

- Fits into her stroller, she was just way too tiny before

- A whopping 11 pounds!

- Graduated from newborn diapers into size 1

- Still wearing 0-3 month clothes

- She has let out some thrill little giggles

- Loves talking to Dad before bed

- Love Mom's kisses

- Screams her face off from either 9-12 or 11-1 depending on the day

- Sleep through the night after all her exhausting screaming!

Mae. Meet Canada!

Mae finally went to Canada for her first time. It was so fun to show her off and let her meet all her aunts, uncles, cousins, and a bunch more people.

This is with her little cousin Malakai born 4 weeks before her. Ashley and I, were married at the same time and pregnant at the same time (however this is her second baby.)

The older cousins loved "Baby Mae" and were so cute with her.

Mae got the chance to meet her grate grandma. Very special moment, I was so glad they could meet eachother and hopefully they have another chance again this summer.

We visited Alexanders grave, my older brother. Mae was named after him and my grandfather, both I never got a chance to know on earth but I know we were friends in heaven. I wanted Mae's name to come from family and it reminds me what a blessing life is.

All the Grandkids below.

Mae loves looking up at me, she is really mastering eye contact and when I look back at her she gets the biggest grin it melts my hear!

Two Months

Well, it is hard to believe my little baby is two months already. We went for her two month check-up this morning and she is growing nicely. She seams huge compared to the little 4 lb 13 oz baby I brought home from the hospital. She is a hopping 9 lbs now! She is very long and skinny which makes fitting her into clothes hard, luckily carter makes their stuff skinner then other brands but everything still seams so wide for her.

She is smiling, real big smiles!!

She LOVES getting her diaper changes, weird kid

We finally got rid of our thrush

She loves kisses on her face and belly

She even has rolls on her legs and arms now

She has blue eyes like here Dad, but shaped like Mine 

(the colour could change though)

Her chin is exactly like her Dad's

She doesn't cry much but when she does she means it! Usually from trapped gas.

We are down to only one night feeding and then an early morning one, somehow I still feel completely sleep deprived though!

Look at those eyes, I just love how big and round they are!

I put her in some three months clothes just to see how they fit. Obviously a little big but not bad! 

Her newborn stuff fits much better though.

Bed time

I was looking through my phone and found a photo Taylor must have snapped of us while I was busy reading Mae a bedtime story. It's weird seeing a picture of me in the middle of a motherhood moment. I still feel too young to have my own little family and this sweet little person I made. Can't imagine spending my time any different now!!

Happy Valentine's Everyone
