peek a boo...

This is usually what I find when Allie wakes up from her nap...

and then I get a little closer and she just gets so excited to see me!!

She has turned into a pretty good little napper. Between months 2 and 3 it was a little rough, some days she did not want to sleep! And there was no such thing as cry it out...she just cried!! :p But then we took a turn for the better and now she takes a morning and afternoon nap every day. And boy is she a happy girl after those naps!! And I'm a happy mama ;)

my computer is dying

I want to blog so bad but the computer is on the way out I think. So my computer time is short and sweet these days...I get too frustrated when I sit here waiting and waiting for it to cooperate. Hope to have something a little more user friendly soon...

Shutterfly's New Holiday Cards!

It's about that time to start thinking about my Christmas cards!  I have ordered 4x6 prints through Shutterfly before and have always been pleased with them.  Last year I even made a calendar and was very impressed...the quality was great!  So this week I have been checking out Shutterfly's huge selection of Christmas cards!  They have such a great variety and they are all so cute!!  I don't know how I'm going to decide what to order!

I have always sent out picture cards...sometimes with one family photo and sometimes a card with several openings for pictures.

I really like this 5x7 card called Spot the Snowflakes...it's a little more contemporary and I like that I can have 2 larger sized photos.























I really like the 5x5 sized cards as well.  I don't see these as often but I think it's a great size!  I would love to have a great family picture to use in this card called With Love Ribbon Christmas Card!

 






















Once I get the picture (or pictures!!) I want to use, hopefully it will help me narrow down which card I choose.  I definitely won't have a problem finding a card...they are all beautiful and I can't go wrong with any of them!

getting behind on my blogging...

but she is so much fun now!

The daylight savings time threw us for a little loop but we're back on track now. I don't remember Sydney or Carter getting too messed up when they were little but she woke up at 5, 5:30 and 4 for the first three nights...UGH! We seem to be back on schedule now ;)

I pulled out some more baby toys for her to play with...Carter likes playing with them too! She really likes getting on the floor and rolling around. She wants to crawl really bad but lucky for me she hasn't figured it out yet!!! I am not ready for crawling yet!! She has a little jumper thing she likes to hang out in too.

I have a ton of pictures to get off my card but am too tired right now. I think daylight savings time messed me up too. I am ready to go to bed about 7 every night.
