What a beautiful day INSIDE!

Today, I created another play area for Marianna in our family room. Due to the fact that "separation anxiety" prevents me and DJ from leaving any room that she is in, we needed to make her more availible to us and where we hang out. I think she is loving her new space!

Jumperoo!

Marianna loves going crazy in her jumperoo!

My Favorite Holiday Picture...

I had to share this special moment of my nephew arriving and seeing Grandma!

Give me FIERCE!

BUT MOMMY, I DON'T KNOW IF I HAVE THAT LOOK IN ME.

CAN'T I JUST GIVE YOU ANOTHER GUMMY SMILE? I HAVE THAT LOOK DOWN AND EVERYONE SEEMS TO LIKE IT! HERE YOU GO..

NOT GOOD ENOUGH?!?! I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW CARRIED AWAY YOU HAVE GOTTEN WITH YOUR NEW CAMERA. ARE YOU FOR REAL?

YOU WANT FIERCE??

RRRRRRRRRRrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!! NOW LEAVE ME ALONE!

On the road to recovery...hopefully!

A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A KEPT BABY...Marianna has been sick for a week now, but i think the bug is on the way out. Her appetite is returning and so is her generous smile!

I'm not playing with my tooth!

This picture of Marianna cracks us up! She has one tooth and plays with it constantly. This is the face she makes when we know she is playing with it!

Marianna's 6 Month pictures

My friend Danielle, who is an amazing photographer, came over today to take Marianna's 6 month pictures (even though she is almost 7 months!). Unfortunately, Marianna got sick in the middle of the shoot so we are going to reschedule, but i thought the pictures she did get were adorable! I am so excited to see the shots when she is feeling better!

Here is some of her other work:
