You are Loved

Bailey is 9 months old this month.  When Christian and I reflect on this past year, it seems so crazy that she is with us.  Each month, she develops more and more personality - this is by far the coolest part... Just learning and watching her turn into a little person with thoughts, likes, dislikes and emotions.  As she grows older, Christian and I are constantly reminding her that she is loved, very loved.
As for the things Bailey loves - well, I am not totally sure they are us... yet.  But I can tell you the things I am SURE she loves :)
She loves animals.  Any kind.  Every time the dog walks past, she literally laughs out loud, hysterically.  
She loves eggs.  I on the other hand don't like eggs but it is highly probable that I will start since I cook them everyday now.
She loves discovering.  Crawling, playing, pulling up, examining, touching, hitting, scratching, you name it.  She is into EVERYTHING!  I can't imagine a world where everything you see is for the first time.  So cool.
She loves tickles.  I just roll on the floor with her and tickle - her laugh is too much.  A high pitched squeal followed by a belly giggle.  So cute.
Bailey loves mornings.  Every morning I enter her room only to find her already standing, waiting, and smiling.  So excited that it is a new day!
Bailey loves stroller rides.  Lord knows she gets a lot of them.  She just relaxes and lets me push her around like royalty.

and the list goes on...

As for the rest of us, this has been quite an eventful month, and looking forward, I don't think we have an open weekend until 2012!  Christian started his Executive MBA at UGA and I got a little, well as my mother would say, I had a "bee in my bonnet" about my hair.  So, I went natural.  Yes, I am not a natural blonde - it is a 200 plus dollar habit I indulge in every 6-8 weeks and I have decided to switch it up a bit.  So, I am now an official brunette :)  We will see if it lasts!  I get asked everyday - "Now that you aren't a blonde, is it true?" I respond, "What?"  You know, "That blondes have more fun..."
Hysterical.  But I am willing to take part in the experiment!

Here are some great pics of Ms. B from the last month - We are SO looking forward to Halloween!  

As we enter the holiday season, remember... you too are loved :)

Looking for her brothers - the dogs.

Every time we have a neighborhood party,
Jared always gets baby duty!

I keep telling her he will never commit ;)

Bailey and Sydney - Just playing!

This is what Bailey does when Christian travels...
"Daddy don't go!"

At brunch before dada leaves town :) and no, we are not at
Chick Fil A - that was the only thing in my purse that
would keep her attention!

Last Braves game of the season

The new "do" - and Bailey preparing for her flu shot :(
