Catching up with the Bauer's

Well it's been too long since I've last written.  My baby girl is six months old.  Six months.  She's a busy little bee.  She is moving all around...she's crawling.  Well I can't tell if it's a legit crawl or not.  It's like a hand, knee, elbow, scoot type of thing.  She's sitting up by herself, but never for long.  She's too interested in being on the move to sit still for too long.  She likes her veggies, but not her fruits.  She wants nothing to do with bananas or pears...but bring on the squash, carrots, green beans.  She still smiles all the time, except when you leave the room or run the vacuum...found out today she is terrified by the vacuum.  Ok by me.  :)

This is Anniston sitting in my lap, watching "her favorite show", Wheel of Fortune.  I like to think she loves this show for the lights and the colors and the sounds.

For Mother's Day, my brother, sister-in-law, and niece met us in Tulsa to spend time with the fam.  I also got the privilege of celebrating my dear friend Francie at her wedding showers that weekend.  I'm so excited about her big day coming up in October!  This is Nana Great with her Great Granddaughters.

Easton and Anniston are going to be little buddies.  I can't wait until they can run around and play together...Easton can't wait either.

Jake and I left Anniston overnight for the first time and headed up to Oklahoma City to celebrate our anniversary.  Jake's mom generously offered to watch Anniston while we had our getaway.  We had such a good time!  I am so thankful for my amazing husband and the 7 years of joy and adventure we've had.

We had a glorious day last week where Jake and I were both off work...so we had family time in bed.  Love these little cuddle buddies.

 I love this picture because I like to think she gets this from me.  I love to scoot down to the foot of the bed and hang my feet off the end...I smiled when I saw Anniston doing this.

 We spent Memorial Day at the lake.  Isn't the view beautiful from the house?

My dad and uncle Billy and Lucas enjoying their morning coffee on the lawn, looking out at the land.

 Anniston loves her Nana Great.

It was so much fun to get to spend time with the Oglesby family...and I think they had fun getting to meet our little one.  :)

We were blessed by a gift of a double stroller from one of our dear friends, so we took it to the lake to give it a try...as you can tell, she loves it!

I included this picture for two reasons- 1) I say she smiles all the time, which is mostly true.  It is very rare that she cries, but I figured I would testify to the fact that it does in fact happen.  2)  I think her cry is so cute.  This picture doesn't so much do her justice, but when she sticks her bottom lip out and starts to cry, I can't help but think how cute she looks...this picture just makes her look sad.  Oh well....

 I was in the laundry room the other day and didn't know what to do with Anniston while I folded laundry, so I stuck her in the laundry basket.  She didn't seem to mind...

Just a few more pictures of my beautiful girl...

So much to be thankful for.
