6 weeks

Akasha is growing like crazy!! She's having her 6 week growth spurt and she's been eating almost every 2 hours except at night! I feel like a cow! But of course we're having fun and have been taking hundreds of pictures (literally). I say this every time, I tried to be picky, but again here's my favorites.

Daddy was playing with her in her bean bag, she absolutely loves it!



She loves showers!

Playing with her first toy!

Her new cousin Selena, 5 lbs, 2 ounces. Akasha looks like a giant compared to her!


Our little angel

Smile!

Here's Daddy keeping Akasha warm after her bath, she loved it!


All bundled up after her bath!

We love our bean bag naps!

The attempt of the Tongue

Akasha has been so active lately. She loves Mommy for her comfort and she loves Daddy for his fun. Ever time she's in Daddy's laboratory she's just so happy and active! In this particular video she was trying to mimic Daddy by sticking out her tongue. It was soooo cute! It's two different videos both about 1 minute long, so sorry if it's BORING!! Enjoy!

Still under construction, BUT.....

The other day, I pulled up Tiffany's blog and it's eye catching and really cute. I told Brian, I want my blog to be cute like hers! So, he's making me a new layout for the blog. I'm really excited!
I have been slacking on getting blogs up! So, of course I have like about 100 pictures I have taken in the last week. I tried to be picky again, but I just love all the pictures! She's just soooo darn cute!


She's starting to really love her binky.

What is with this face?

Sitting like a big girl!


She was actually smiling and giggling a little at Daddy

WARRIOR DOING?


She loved being in the shower



We love taking naps together on the bean bag

Fam Time

The trip with the fam when really well. We had a lot of fun! Mom caught us up on laundry, did all the diapers, cooked food (dad helped when he was here), bought us groceries, and washed all the dirty dishes! When Brian and I were driving home, I was a little teary eyed, and when he asked what was wrong, I replied with, "I'm going to have to do all of the chores again." It was a blessing having my Mommy here. Thanks Mom! Oh, and Dad it was fun having you here too ;) I can't wait until Mom's 50th birthday in June!
I tried to pick out my favorite pictures from the visit, and it came down to these 16! I tried to be picky, but Akasha is so freaking cute I had to put all of these on here!

Baby Shower (by Brian's family)

Our first baby shower by the Fortner family was scheduled on February 2nd. I had a feeling that I just wasn't going to go that long and I told Nicole and Brian's mom Cindy that I was scared I wasn't going to make it until then. But they wanted to have it then anyways! I showed them right? ;) They rescheduled it to the 16th so my Mom could be a part of it. It turned out really well, Cindy did such a good job decorated and making food (we had lasagna, veggies, crackers and cheese.. etc.) We had a good crowd and I got a lot of really good gifts.

The cake had raspberry filling, it was delicious!

The table centerpiece, our theme was Air for the element of Akasha's Zodiac sign

Pretty girl!
