Akasha's first Easter

One of my old friends from Walgreens came over to see Akasha and they brought us a dozen pink roses! They were so beautiful! Akasha's dress is white with pink and I thought, what a perfect photo op! Brian and I took about 100 pictures! It was really fun and a lot of the pictures turned out really cute.
Brian has been teaching me about Adobe Photoshop and I've been having a lot of fun playing with pictures. This picture below is one of my first tries doing something awesome. I'll get better I'm sure, but I really love this one.

Tiff's package!

I finally received Tiffany's package! Brian and I had to resign our lease (we're stuck here for another year) :(, and I asked the lady if she could check and see if I had a package. They didn't put anything in my mail box or on my door like they're supposed to, jerks! Anyways, it consisted of a beautiful homemade blanket and card, and a onesie from our Grandmother Wood. I don't think I can use the onesie, it will remind me of Grandma Wood forever. I love the blanket and the card was so creative! Thanks again Tiff!







Akasha has been smiling a lot lately, I caught a few on camera! Her smiles can brighten anyones day. ENJOY!


I hope Logan has a fantastic 1st birthday (you better take lots and lots of pictures Tiffany) and Happy Easter everyone!

Akasha's Crib

Brian put together Akasha's crib last night and it's perfect! Unfortunately he had to take down my closet doors because it just wasn't going to fit, but it's in a good spot in the bedroom and it matches my bed frame perfectly. I love the crib and I love the bumper/crib set! Thanks again Mom!





Brian and I decided that we need to start weaning Akasha out of our bed! She's almost 8 weeks now and she's still sleeping with us! So today was the start of this brilliant idea. I'm going to start putting her in the crib for all naps and start a specific bed time which is at 10:00 (for now). I finished feeding her at about 9:00 and I wanted to keep her up until 10 so she would fall asleep for good. It was pretty rough trying to keep her awake, and really funny as you will see in the pictures below. So far it's working pretty well. She put herself to sleep (for like the first time) and I've only been in there 3 times putting her binky back in her mouth (it's 11:20). It will probably take a while, but it'll be worth it in the end!

7, 9, 14 and 24

Last night Akasha slept from 1:30 to 9:30! It was so awesome! This is the first time she's ever slept 7 hours! It's very exciting. Shannon came over today and she weighs 9 lbs 14 ounces and she's 24 inches long! She's getting soo BIG! She almost doesn't fit in her bouncer anymore!
Surprisingly only 6 pictures today! The video was from last night, she was just so excited and I was hoping we'd get a smile on the video, but there was only one short little smile, it's cute anyways! It's almost 3 minutes long, just a warning!




Where's Daddy?

On top of the world!

Long legs!
