molly...just because

beautiful molly

molly is cuter than ever! she actually naps in her crib now (instead of just in her carseat), and she's mastered rolling from her back to her tummy. she learned how to roll from tummy to back one day at church, but hit her head on the floor when doing said roll. it must have hurt, because she won't roll that way anymore. she just rolls to her tummy and then screams because she doesn't/can't roll back. hilarious.

she's very vocal, and i love it when she "talks". she doesn't seem to care for baby cereal, which isn't too different since none of my other girls really liked it, either. molly adores her sisters, and loves it when they give her their undivided attention! she's gotten to be really picky, too, and prefers me to just about anybody else (when i'm around, that is). i guess she figures if i'm gonna be in the same room with her, i should be the one to hold her. i guess that's good reasoning...

the big 2-6

i celebrated my 26th birthday last week, and now i am well on my way to fifty! :D i had some friends and my family over for cake and rainbow sherbet (mmmm...sherbet...), and a lady from church made me a cake and surprised me by showing up at our house the night before with it. i felt very special!26-year-old me and molly.
my really cute birthday cake!

Richie decided to actually celebrate and make somewhat of a big deal for my birthday this year since last year we didn't do anything because he was out on a rig for work. yay for recessions! (joking)

chillin

a week or so ago, i had laid molly on my bed to sleep because emma was in her crib, and this is how i found her when i checked on her. she's just chillin'.

i took the kids swimming at my friend, brittany's, house last week when the temperature outside was like 95 degrees. they really enjoyed it, but apparently, i only got good pics of emma. she was cute. she didn't even hesitate, but got right into the water.

here's molly on her tummy. she's getting so strong!

yesterday, lucy was calling for me, so i looked up, and there was lucy "look, mom, i'm pregnant!"

jayne's 3!

We just celebrated Jayne's 3rd birthday this week! Last weekend we took the girls to chuck e. cheese's and they had a lot of fun. later that afternoon, we had family and a couple of friends over for a small birthday celebration. i made jayne a tinkerbell cake, and she got to open all of her loot. happy birthday, my jayne!

here's the cake. richie said it looked like a hispanic tinkerbell, what do you think?

here's a bonus picture, my sweet princess molly.

4 months

my molly is 4 months old! where has the time gone? anywho, i offered her some rice cereal for the first time yesterday, and i think she liked it.

cereal drool...

We finally got our van, and i love it! it's a 2005 Chrysler Town and Country.
