On The Road Again!!!

The new Mr. and Mrs. Borgmeyer, Han and Josh smiled ear to ear the whole time!

Three Generations....it was a great first Mother's Day and I anticipate many more to come!

Tulips and irises from Mike and Abbie for Mother's Day.

Tummy Time on Mommy's leg to make a stinky thing more tolerable! Other ways to make it "fun" are to sing to her or pat her bottom to buy us a little time on her tummy!

Strawberry hat from my good friend Angie from PT school. I took about 6 pix of Abbie in it but I will spare you of the photo shoot. I just couldn't contain myself with the camera! But who could with such a cute, sweet subject for pix!

We've had a busy month of WEDDINGS and there's one more super special one to come, my sister-in-law, Amy and her fiance, Taylor, will be tying the knot May 30 to round out our crazy month of weddings. We took a road trip to St. Louis May 16 for a super close college friend of mine's wedding, Hannah. Mom and Dad were the official babysitters for Abbie Rose since she can't control all her coos and squeals of delight these days to sit through a ceremony. We celebrated my first Mother's Day there with delicious crepes from City Cafe and Coffeehouse and a LONG ride home back to Memphis! Mike surprised me with 2 vases of tulips and irises for Mother's Day, a mistake of ProFlowers but I enjoyed getting 2 to enjoy. This past weekend we headed to Atlanta to see Nana Rose and Papa Ray and go to my 2nd cousin's, Derrik's, wedding in Alabama. I must say we've almost mastered traveling with an infant....you don't stop unless she's awake and hungry! You hold it and wait for drinks/snacks til it's time for her to eat so that 6 hour trips don't end up being 9 hours! I know all you out there with infants know what I'm talking about.
Please be praying for me as I go back to work next week! I will be working 3 days a week and Mike's mom and sister will be keeping Abbie. I'm going to miss being at home with her everyday so much and can't wait til God brings those days back to me hopefully SOON!

2 Months Old and All Smiles!!!

Mommy and Abbie Rose

Demonstrating some of her gymnastics moves, she LOVES lying on her back with free arms and legs!

It's been tough to catch her smiles on camera and video, but we got lucky this time.

The aftermath of her 1st shots...1 shot in each thigh with colorful bandaids and fussiness as the evidence.

The way we often find Abbie in the mornings or at the end of her naps! She's a mover and a shaker in her sleep!

Little Abbie Rose is 9 weeks old and time has absolutely FLOWN! At her 2 month check up she weighed in at a big 8 lbs 3 oz (10th percentile) and is 22.5 inches long (50th percentile). We are hoping and praying she weighs in on the more "heavyweight" side when we go for her "weigh in" in a couple weeks. She's changing so much everyday with new coos, squeals, and facial expressions. She's started smiling when she's got a full belly and mommy is playing with her making silly faces and when daddy gets home from work, one of her favorite times of the day! Her tolerance of "tummy time" expires quickly but she has her daily dose because mommy knows best, right?!The paci is her best friend once evening comes and she's "spent" for the day as "fussy time" embarks, several nights a week. Abbie went to her first birthday party today. It was her cousin Maggie's 4 year old princess party! Abbie slept through the cake and presents, but made it through the first half of fun watching all the kiddos do fun crafts on a rainy day.
