3 months

Blakely is 3 months old! Blakely turned 3 months old while spending time with her great grandparents on July 6th! She came with me to celebrate my grandmother's 75th birthday (pictures of that to come!) With each month we fall more and more in love with our little girl. I never knew how much I could love someone until she came into our lives these few short months ago. She is growing and reaching all of her milestones right on target! At month 3 Blakely Kate is:

-Smiling more than ever!
-Laughing (mostly at her Daddy)
-wearing size 1 diapers
-wearing 0-3 months clothes
-eating 4.5-5 ounces of formula
-loving her "Lovie"
-sleeping in her crib (every night- hallelujah!)
-trying to roll over
-chattering all the time
- about 12 pounds and 25 inches long
-still enjoying being outside
-riding in her stroller without being in her car seat
-going to go on her first trip to the beach soon!


Blakely goes to the doctor again in August for her 4 month check-up so we will know her height and weight more accurately! She also has to get more shots! :( We are enjoying watching her grow and with each new thing she does we think it's just incredible- (I know all kids do these things- but it's special because she's ours! :))


Happy 3 months!


Smiley girl! 


Peace and Love,

July 4th

Blakely's first July 4th was pretty uneventful! Travis was off work so we spent the day doing things around the house, since we have listed our house on the market. We enjoyed the day and went to Blakely's Mimi and Papaw's (Travis' parents) house for a cookout! Despite not seeing fireworks or any fourth of July festivities, Blakely was festive and celebrated our country's independence in style! 
Our sweet 4th of July girl! 

Happy girl!

Happy 4th of July! 

Peace and Love,

Father's Day!

Travis enjoyed his first Father's Day with Blakely Kate! We spent Saturday with my dad on the lake so that Blakely and cousin Penelope could spend time with him! What a treat to have all of us together and Blakely loves riding on the boat. Sunday we went to church and spent the afternoon as a family. That evening we had dinner at my mom's house to celebrate all of the daddies! Here a few pictures we took of Travis and Blakely on his first Father's Day!
