Catching Up!!

There really hasn't been much to blog on lately. Nothing much going on in our little world, besides work & watching Natalee grow! On Friday, May 14, my poor baby was sick! She had her first stomach virus. I got up, got dressed & ready for work. I proceeded to get Natalee dressed. I picked her up to get ready to walk out the door then she vomited everywhere!!! It was all over me, her, the bed, the floor, the door...everywhere!!! I stayed home & gave her plenty of liquids. I tried giving her some jello, but she threw that up too. Needless to say, she laid around in nothing but a diaper & I changed clothes 4 times! By that night, she felt a lot better & was ready to play. It only lasted about 5 hours or so.

Besides that, we have all been well, besides Natalee getting a nasty yeast infection, which finally cleared up after a trip to the after hours clinic on a Sunday followed by a trip to her regular doctor on the following Thursday and 2 different prescriptions. It was so bad, she literally scratched a hole in her diaper!!

On Saturday, May 15, Brandi, Morgan, Carol & I took Natalee & Madison to the carnival. We figured there would be at least one thing they could ride, but no...they were too short! So, we let them play games. They both picked up the ducks & won a Dora blow up doll. Then they played the water gun game where you have to get the car to the top & Madison won the first game & Natalee won the second game. This time they each got a bubble machine "gun". They loved them some bubbles!!! They picked up the ducks again & each got a sword this time. We then took them to the new McDonald's in town. It is a really nice MickyD's. They have a fake pirate ship play area. They played for a few minutes, but it got too crowded & the big kids were coming to the toddler area to play. We went home & the girls got them a nap. When Natalee woke up, I took her to Deadra's to play in Madison's pool. They had a lot of fun! No I don't have any picture of the day, but I did have my camera handy....just didn't see anything special to take a picture of!

As I have said before, Natalee loves to play outside. She loves her sandbox & wading pool. She loves Aunt "Bebby's" (Debbie's) big swimming pool. She loves her wagon. She loves riding the golf cart & 4 wheeler. She just plain loves being outside!!!
She also has another love...her daddy's ipod! Anytime she sees the headphones, she picks them up & puts them to her ears. If there isn't any music playing, she will hollar, "Moosic, moosic". Once the music starts playing, she starts dancing! It is too cute!

Natalee also has found a love for Disney movies. A few of her favorites are Finding Nemo & Toy Story. She loves Buzz & Woody! She has to watch Buzz & Woody everynight before she goes to sleep, so we are thinking about taking her to the theater for the first time to see Toy Story 3. That should be fun! The first picture below is of her watching Finding Nemo. She loves to sit on her zebra & watch her "shows"...heck, she just loves her zebra!




Here she is watching Toy Story 2. Callaway turned it on & she got so excited. She ran to the TV & stared at it then decided to climb on the couch. She didn't want to leave until it went off. I had to convince her we would watch it when we got home.
