Just a little big

Scarlett is wearing her sleep blanket and was playing before bedtime. I looked over at her and this is what I saw. She's looks so little. Sigh! If only she still was, but unfortunately she's growing.

Mesmerized by Daddy's shirt

Gerry was holding Scarlett and she was just talking up a storm to his shirt. She seemed to be enamored with that shirt.

First babysitter

Miss April was so kind to come and babysit me while Mommy and Daddy went out on what they called a "date".

Feeding time with Daddy

Mommy and Daddy had lunch first and now it's my turn. Daddy took me back to his office.
Bonding with Daddy. Scarlett looked at Gerry the entire time he fed her. It was such a sweet moment.

Practicing my sitting

Kicking back
Oh no!

Well, the view is not bad from here.

Not fair! That didn't last long.

Big Sister Sara Visits

Big sis, Sara, picks me up to hold me.
Now she's playing with me on my gym mat. She's too big to lay on the mat with me, but that's okay I can see her better where she is so I can smile at her.

Sara and Scarlett at the airport.

Scarlett wishes Sara a good trip back to Oklahoma and was so glad she came to visit and can't wait to see her again.

Blanket No-No

Scarlett shows what happens when she sleeps with a blanket. She was taking a nap on the couch with us watching her, but when she's asleep in her crib for the evening, she wears a sleep blanket.
Scarlett is a big mover in her sleep that her arm gets caught in the blanket and causes it to cover her face.

And we had to show everyone the blanket she was sleeping on. This is in honor of her daddy's alma mater - OU

My sweetheart after her nap.

I can sit up...kinda

Here we have Scarlett practicing sitting up on the couch. You'll see Gerry's hand helping her and if you look hard enough you'll see she's foaming at the mouth. Ok, she's not, we seem to have caught her right as she was spitting up - such timing on Mom's part.

Ladybug

I'm sure you've noticed that Scarlett seems to have a lot of tummy time. We do it to help strengthen her neck and back muscles which will help her learn to sit up on her own. One of the things she loves to look at when doing tummy time is her ladybugs on her mat.

My first Spurs game

This past Saturday, March 10, we took Scarlett to her first Spurs game. We were in the suite of the company I work for so it made it so much easier to have her at the game. She was startled every time the crowd cheered, but in the end it didn't stop her from taking a nap during the game.

Sly girl

Scarlett was doing tummy time when I caught a few of these pictures of how she really is. She actually is a wonderful baby. She has her routine so it makes it easy on Mommy to know what she wants.
Her little sly look.
She's finally had enough. She starts to fuss when she's tired.
