Tag Trouble

This video is hilarious!!! Bella's new tags finally came in, but she is not sure about them. In the video, she keeps hearing the tags glide on the floor. She's trying to figure out how to get them....doesn't work :-)

Baby Shower

It's that time in life when a lot of my friends are either starting or continuing to grown their families. My friend, Randi, is getting ready to have her 2nd daughter...Ella Grace! I was SO excited to go to her shower! I got to catch up with Randi and Kelli, both some of my best friends from college. Randi's shower was at Mimi's Cafe in Little Rock....YUMMY! It was so great hanging out with old friends, and meeting some new ones. Here are a few pictures of Randi opening gifts....

This is the adorable outfit that I got for little Ella.

A monogrammed diaper bag....SO cute!

Adorable mesh tutu for baby Ella. One of the girls at the shower made it herself! She also made one for Randi's older daughter, Maci. I'm going to try my hand at creating a skirt for another friend that is having a little girl.

Checking out a cute outfit....she thought the flower on the bottom was hilarious!

Play Time

This is a video of Bella playing with the donut toy I spoke about in the previous blog. You can hear how annoyingly loud the squeaker is! Once she gets going, it's hard to get her to stop :-)

Growing Up

Bella is getting SO big!!! She is now 11 weeks old and has gained 6 pounds since we got her...now weighing a whopping 11 pounds :-) This is the most updated picture I have of her, but you can kind of see how big she's gotten. We are so glad that it's getting warmer outside because we are finally able to teach her how to walk on a leash. We've taken her out the past 3 days, and she's met a lot of the neighbors, their kids, and their dogs! She's done so well. Bella LOVES playing with her soccer ball! She also loves playing "Monkey-in-the-Middle" with Mike and I. We get her tennis ball and throw or roll it back and forth to see if she can get it...HILARIOUS! She's starting to figure out how to move quickly to get the ball. She also loves her donut toy. After I brought it home, we realized how annoying the squeaker was, but that's her favorite part. She'll get the donut in her mouth (barely), make it squeak, then growl at the sound. Mike and I listened to her squeak and growl at her donut for about 15 minutes straight tonight...annoying and funny at the same time. She wore herself out playing with it. Mike has also been working on training her. She already knows the cues for "sit" and "come". The cue "stay" is still a little hard for her. She's a smart pup though, so she'll get it soon enough. We are so happy to have a fun and energetic puppy! Bella is such a wonderfully cute puppy :-)
