9 Months Old!

I can not believe my little princess will be 9months old in 4days! It makes me tear up watching her grow up so fast and it seems like yesterday that I got to hold her for the first time in the NICU when she was two and half pounds! I just can't believe how much she has grown before our eyes and is smart as a whip! I know I have slacked at updating her baby blog with her progress, especially since she has progressed SO much in just a couple of months! She is such a wiggle worm and rolls all over the place! Her hands are now independant and she can pick up toys and any and everything in her reach, which has been a nightmare than a milestone lol. She has taken an interest in standing rather than crawling although she has started pulling her knees under her since watching her boyfriend, Hunter, crawl all over the place lol! She has gotten the front end working correctly since she can push all the way up on her hands so now she just needs to get the legs to cooperate lol. She can sit up by herself although she is still working on her balance and her obession with grabbing everything in sight lol. She can stand by herself with her hands on something for about 15min or so if she doesn't get too excited and lands on her butt! She is getting more mobile by the day and is always keeping mommy and daddy on their toes!

Her first word officially was "dada" and she has worn it out ever since! lol She understands who dada is too considering she yells it at him and whines it when he isn't around until she hears his voice or he comes home. Definitely a Daddy's girl! There are so many mini milestones she has made.. too many to list, but she has grown up so much! We love her so much and I can only imagine how much I'm going to cry on her first birthday! :(


*my silly wiggle worm!*

*she loves to stand up*

*my beautiful princess*

*silly drool bucket lol*

*getting into EVERYTHING! lol*

*my monkey in the mornings lol*

First Beach Trip

Cassie finally got to go to the beach! She was not thrilled about the sand or the cold water, but she loved playing with her Daddy and Hunter all day long! I absolutely loved her new bathing suit that I got her although Daddy was not happy that it was a two-piece lol. All in all she had a great time for her first visit to the beach! Here are a few pictures of her experience at the beach.

*chillin' with her shades on lol*

*staying cool*

*didn't like the cold water lol*

*and didn't like the sand lol*

*but loved playing with Daddy lol*

*and playing with her boyfriend, Hunter<3*

Splish Splash I was taking a bath...

Just thought I'd add some cute pics of Cassie in her new bath tub that Miss Ashley gave her. She loves being able to sit up and play with her bath toys! lol And Daddy loves giving her baths every night.. it's their playtime lol.

*playing with her bath toys.. she loves eeyore!*

*mom! don't take pictures of me in the bathtub!*

*ready for bed after bath time lol*

Cassie has a boyfriend!

As we all know, Cassie is my beautiful baby girl who just so happened to inherit her parent's good looks and apparently our charm as well. lol Cassie already has herself a boyfriend who she LOVES to play with all the time. His name is Hunter "Ladiesman" Lynch and he is such a sweetheart! He is the little boy of Josh and Ashley Lynch who are one of the Navy families we hang out with here in Va. I'm so glad we have met such awesome friends here and I know Cassie is happy we have too! lol They are super cute and play so great together. He even got her her first pink rose just because he loves her so much lol (fake of course..haha). They also have another baby friend they play with named Audrey... we just have our own little Navy Baby Daycare going on up here! lol I can't say Daddy is too thrilled about her first boyfriend and he has forbidden her to date til she is 50yrs old, but what Daddy don't know won't hurt him...lol! Here are just a few pictures that I have of them to playing together.. these are so going in the baby book! lol

*Love at first sight...lol*

*babies at the beach*

*kisses for hunter..aww*

*holding hands... baby love lol*

Baywatch Baby

So while we were visiting our Memaw, I just HAD to try out her cute watermelon bathing suit! lol She's my little baywatch baby! I got her a cute inflatable pool for her to play in when we visited Memaw over the summer. She loved it! lol The best part about her first pool experience was that I thought it would be ok to let her go diaperless in her bathing suit and as soon as I stand her up in the pool she smiled and peed lol! She's my little stinker! She loved splashing around in the pool and playing with the blow up butterflies that floated around in the pool. She's such a cutie! Definitely trying to make her a beach bum so I'll have my beach bum to help me pick up guys at the beach with....lol! Daddy would appreciate my efforts LOL!  Here are some pics of her first pool experience...

*my baywatch baby

Cassidy's First Easter!

I'm so happy that Cassidy had such a great first easter! She loved her toys she got from the easter bunny and she got to watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouses' Easter Egg Hunt episode this morning lol. Since daddy had duty today we decided to spend our Easter with our friends Justine and Madeline!

We went to Hunt Club Farms Easter Egg Hunt and had a great time! It was so nice outside and it was a great day to be out in the sun looking for easter eggs lol. She was so interested in everything else but the eggs; however, we had fun finding the eggs and kinda cheating alittle trying to find the good prizes inside lol! We had our on little photoshoot with all the cute easter decor and the easter bunnies! We got to see all the goats, chickens, bunnies, peacocks, and there was even a llama! To top off the day, we went on a hay ride around the farm.

We had such a great time and I can't wait til next year when she will actually get to run around looking for eggs, pet the animals, and even ride the pony rides!

6 Months

Holy crap where has the time gone?! Cassidy is already 6 months old and half way to being 1 year old!!! No No No she is suppose to stay my baby girl forever! She is getting so big so fast before I know it she will be walking and talking!

She is now about 13lbs and 24in long! She is trying to sit up on her own and starting to want to stand up. She is already a talkative little girl with her continuous babbling pretty much all day long. I’ve even caught her a couple times, after I have put her to bed. babbling to her mobile and her Munk Munk! There is never a dull moment with my little stinker! She is eating lots of baby food and so far she loves it all! Lol Her favorite foods, so far, would have to be green beans, carrots, and applesauce. She hasn’t given me problems so far with eating baby food, but she gets excited when she gets to eat those! She loves watching movies and cartoons and her favorite right now has been Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. Since it has been so nice outside the past few weeks, we have been taking trips to the park in the beautiful sunshine! She absolutely loves seeing all the dogs and ducks everywhere and getting to play outside. My little sunshine has been a ball full of energy and loves to play, giggle, and smile all day long!

This past month she has been doing a lot of traveling and meetings new people! She got to go visit her great-Papaw and great-MeMe in Statesville, her big sister Carson in Wadesboro, and a bunch of people at mommy’s friend Hanna’s baby shower in Cheraw. Of course she flirted her way into everyone’s hearts while she visited with everyone although she was not fond of the actual traveling part herself.

She has changed so much in the past month that I can only imagine what is in store for this upcoming month, but I’m sure it will be filled with lots of smiles and sunshine!


*us cool kids at the park! lol

Playin at the Park

This past week has been so beautiful and we just had to take advantage of the nice warm weather so I decided to take my little bumblebee to the park! We went to Mount Trashmore which is a big park with a lake in the middle and two playgrounds. Mommy got plenty of excerise walking around the lake and we even got to sit around and look at the ducks and doggies as they passed by. She loved being out in the sun and got all excited watching the ducks walk around...her and scooter could definitely have a ball chasing those ducks around together! lol I can't wait for it to warm up alittle more so we can head over to the beach!
*We're so cool!
*My little bumblebee!

5 months old!

My little sweet pea is 5 months old! She is getting so big and I wish she could just stay little forever! She was 10lbs 9oz and 22.6in long on Feb. 24th and she is now 11lbs and almost 23in long! She has grown so much in only a month's time and is almost out of her 3month clothes and into 3-6month clothes. She is such a sweetheart and never makes a peep unless she is hungry or wants something. She is so curious, determined, independant, and a snuggle bunny. She is now starting to sit up with assistance so I have recently started feeding her rice cereal with a little bit of applesauce for taste and she has gotten so good at eating her big girl food! She loves to sit up and look around and be apart of the conversation like a little grown-up. She is now sleeping in her crib like a big girl and she does so well sleeping all night til 8am. She loves watching her disney movies and she has recently gotten attached to Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. She has started to giggle and smile when you make funny faces and noises and she loves being silly with Daddy.

She has her Daddy wrapped around her fingers! She loves for him to play with her before bedtime and then curl up on his chest and pass out for the night. It's so sweet! She has stolen both of our hearts and I just can't help but get excited every morning when I hear her playing in her crib. I melt everytime I see her smile and hear her little giggle as she plays with her hands and feet! She also got to meet her MeMe and Papaw Davidson, her great-aunt heather, and her 2nd cousin Maddie who fell in love with her as soon as they saw her! She loved cuddling up with them and taking in all of the new sights and sounds. I can't believe how much she has changed in just a month's time and I can't imagine how much she is going to change in the month ahead!
*lunchtime with Memaw!
*ready for the summer... come on warm weather!
*sleeping all night in her crib!
*she hasn't figured out that she can't laugh and eat at the same time lol

My Sweet Pea has a Sweet TOOTH!

The doctor did tell us at our last visit to be watching for her to start teething, but it could be 2 more months since she was born 2 months early. However, our poor little sweet pea has started teething! She apparently has been teething for the past two weeks since her symptoms have been going on for that long and my light bulb just came on that teething could be the culprit. I called the doctor this morning just to make sure and sure enough.... she's teething!

Her symptoms (for parents who may be still waiting for this...exciting stage in their baby's life lol) are: excessive drooling, inflammed gums, white spots on the gums (the teeth), fussiness while feeding, and excessive crying. She has been unusually fussy here the past few weeks and we have had to endure a couple of long nights although she has been doing great sleeping through the night (when we finally get her to sleep). So the solution...... baby orajel and TEETHING TABLETS! God's gift to mothers with teething babies! I put 2 tablets under her tongue and poof.... happy baby in 10 min! We will see how long this stage last, but hopefully we will be seeing some little baby teeth here soon!

Cassidy's First Valentine's Day!

Cassidy's first Valentine's Day was definitely filled with sweets and love! She LOVED her cute stuffed puppy from Daddy... it tastes just as good as her Munk Munk! lol
She got dressed up in her valentine's outfit and we all headed out for our family day out for Valentine's Day. We went out to eat for lunch and then enjoyed the movie Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightening Thief. She stayed awake through the whole movie and watched very quietly cause she is such a sweet girl. When we got home we had a little valentine's photo shoot while Daddy got her bottle ready.
*Definitely Daddy's Little Sweetheart<3
*Daddy's favorite girls!
*I'll eat your face mommy.. gimme my bottle! lol
*Funny Face
*kisses for my sweetheart<3

After plenty of kisses and a full tummy, our precious angel nodded off to sleep for the night. Her first valentine's day turned out to be as sweet as her little baby kisses! She has stolen her Mommy and Daddy's hearts and has us wrapped around her precious little fingers. She is our meaning of true love!

*4 months old*

OMG, my baby girl is now 4 months old!! I can't believe how much she has changed all in the matter of a month! She went from just getting into newborn clothes to now wearing 0-3month and 3month clothes. She has become A LOT more active! She likes to squirm around and kick the living crap out of anything that comes near her feet. She has rolled over a few times but she is more focused on her feet and hands than trying to roll over. It was the coolest thing ever to watch her for the first time finally seeing me a little further away and being able to follow me across the room. She is so alert and really takes everything in! She LOVES her winnie the pooh movies and has recently gotten attached to Cinderella. She really likes the mice in the movie..lol. She has started to like toys, especially her lay&play, but is very attached to one monkey that we have named Munk Munk. The poor thing is constantly covered in baby drool and is always somewhere close to her. She cuddles up with it and has started to be fussy if she doesn't have it tucked next to her. Her major accomplishment has definitely been that she now sleeps all through the night!! It is the best thing ever! She goes to bed about 8pm and I wake her up to eat at 12am to eat and then she sleeps til about 7-8am. You never really appreciate 6hrs of sleep until you have a baby.

She is such a good girl for me during the day, but when daddy comes home it is apparently play time! She wants to pitch a fit until daddy picks her up and plays with her. She is definitely a Daddy's little girl! This past weekend she got to experience her first snow! It snowed up to 8in of snow and she was definitely not a fan..lol. When I stuck her hand in the snow she gave me this look like "mommy, that is too damn cold, what are you thinkin"? lol Super cute! She now is alittle over 21in long and somewhere between 9-10lbs. She goes to get her 4month shots and check-up this thursday.

*chipmunk cheeks...got to love baby fat! lol
