A bunch of pictures from Newborn to 2 months

I was sorting through pictures on the computer and came across a ton of pictures that I forgot I had. I don't think many have seen these so I thought I would post. Isn't she cute, hasn't she grown since then. Wow, time does fly? I realized that I made a mistake in chronologically ordering these. From the ultrasound picture and below those are all newborn. I wish I could fix that but I have no idea how to. Anyway, enjoy!!

8 months old...and so behind in blogging

I know, I know, I am a slacker at blogging. I have a reason though. I have not had any computer for awhile, but got ahold of one tonight, so here I was able to upload some pictures. I wish I had some time to sit here and write all about Sunny, but I need to get ready for bed. Here are some pictures from after Christmas and up to now. Enjoy!!!

6 months old

Today is a huge celebration. We have reached our half year mark. It's been hard. I don't want to be dramatic or complain, but I haven't had the easiest baby. We are still unable to go many places and I still struggle going to church. As of about one week ago, she finally began taking longer naps. At about 3.5 months, she began taking short cat naps up to 30 minutes. Just enough for me to get a few things done and maybe sleep a little. She also began waking up every hour on average all through the night. She still wakes frequently at night, but it's not every hour and she is starting to finally take naps up to two hours long. Wow!! She has reached her milestones well. She is sitting up but has some balancing issues, she scoots everywhere, and she is starting to get into everything. Her personality is very strong willed and determined. She is not mellow, but rather very fiesty and very alert. She is well aware of her surroundings and recognizes people now. She has started on solids as of a month ago. I have been pureeing my own baby food and she has tried pumpkin, peaches, squash, apple, and sweet potato. We are introducing her to other greens as well. She has also tried organic brown rice cereal. We think it may cause her some tummy and constipation issues so we are going to stop the rice for a few days and try oatmeal instead. Overall, she is doing well. We love her and she definitely keeps us busy. There are days I am very exhausted, but I try to remind myself to slow down. My house does not have to be perfectly clean every second. I don't have to have makeup on or my hair done everyday. And there are days that it's okay to stay in my pajamas. I am trying to remind myself that it's okay. Here is to 6 more months of new developments from scooting to crawling, from crawling to walking and from walking to talking. I also wanted to through in a picture of me when I was about five months and my mom. Wow, time has sure gone by fast.

Tasty!
