Crazy day!

I dont know what I exactly accomplished today aside from laundry and some light cleaning, but seriously, I feel so drained I might slump over and fall asleep as I type. Little miss O was un-happy most of the day today, I think she is starting to teeth. She is drooling more than normal, and wakes herself up from naps crying. Today I think she cried for at least 5 minutes every hour of the day. Her usual bedtime is around 6pm, so I attempted bathtime alone since I work the next 2 days and by the time I am home from work she is fast asleep. By asleep, I do not mean sleeping through the night, oh no, she still is up every 3 (sometimes 4 and if I am reeeeeeally lucky 5) hours to eat, burp, and falls back asleep. Her usual wake-up time is around 7am. Hubby is out tonight doing some business stuff, and I am sitting here debating on if I should shower or finish the laundry, hhmmmm.

Until then, I will share some pictures of my adorable child

Yesterday we spent the day lounging and swimming at my in-laws, Kobe LOVES going there, he is such a water dog!

(All of the below pictures are with my Tamron lens, which I dont use that often but am trying to get better at. I love my 50mm 1.4 so much its always on my camera. I had some major issues with focus and the white balance is so different on auto than with the 50. Its a great lens, but my 50 is still my first love!)

 

 

We set O up outside in this rainforrest chair, shes deciding if she likes it or not...

 

"Hmm...now what exactly does this do...?"

 

"It moves and sings?! Omg I am sold!"

 

This morning she looked so cute in this outfit I had to add a cute little clippie. She looooves this frog, and I find myself singing the annoying tune all day long! "Hi! I'm Leap, lets sing the alphabet song..."

 

 

 

After this picture, she lost her breakfast all over her shirt and the sheets, so we changed into something mommy thought was cute. Apparently she didnt feel the same.

 

Not to worry, I only let her cry like this for 0.2 milliseconds before I picked her up. You have to admit, even when she cries, she still SO cute!

 

The next pictures were this evening, after mommy and daddy set up her new play mat. I had been searching for a solution for our front room that has been pretty much nothing since we moved in. I know before we know it she will be crawling and walking, so I wanted something fun that screamed kids playroom. I think we achieved our goal :)

 

 

I think she kinda likes it, no?

 

 

Working the next couple days, hoping to have a better time than my last few shifts. Excited about my parents coming in for my birthday weekend. Starting to decorate the house for fall. Nothing else too exciting to report!

Oh and stay tuned for some changes around here...I think I was good this year, and have asked for a brand spankin new, really pretty and fun blog for my birthday. I have been drooling over it for some time, and think I am ready. While this blog has been really fun (and the new blog will be able to transfer this entire blog onto my new one, bonus!), it really takes me a loooong time to upload pictures, and as you can see from the last 3 months, I take a LOT. I also plan on pouring more of myself into photography this fall and spring (obviously in 112 degrees its pretty much impossible all summer!) and my new blog will help me to showcase that since I dont have a website, and it will still be what it is now, a place to write about our life, gush about my daughter, keep in touch with family, etc etc. It also helps that the new blog will be sparkly and pretty, which makes it even more fun to read so I look forward to sharing it with you :)
