eat. poop. sleep.

The baby rountine...eat, poop, sleep. Today when Juliette was eating lunch I could tell she was also trying to poop, and I haven't been able to capture that picture yet (I know Brent is rolling his eyes at that comment). Anyway, here is a quick look at baby life...

eat.

poop

more poop
sleep (almost woke her up with this one!)

Hope your Saturday is this awesome!

lucy and juliette

Lindsey was taking Lucy to get her pic with the Easter Bunny at Maplewood Mall, so she called to invite us along! We were excited to get to see them! The girls are just over 3 months apart, so I am sure they will have MANY photos through the ages! Here are a few from today (we took them in the bathroom "lounge" at Macy's...I think every Easter we'll go there and remind the girls that you're supposed to go to the bathroom in pairs :-)

it was nice out, so we walked..."mom, it's over there!"

hey...do i know you?

how about i poke you?

or just laugh....

or go for your foot

and eat it !

Some puffs for the ride home

We had such a nice time at the mall. I didn't even realize how late it was b/c Juliette was being SO GOOD just hanging in her stroller and then it was 12:30 and I was like, oh, she should probably eat now! On the way home we made a quick stop and Unkie B and Antie K's because I thought Juliette was extra cute today. Plus, now she can high-five and wave! Her waving was awesome today and she was so proud of herself! She did awesome waving to Unkie B and Antie K. LOVE IT! I am sure I will post again soon as we still have to dye our Easter eggs!!

Happy 3/4 birthday!

Today was a busy day! We had her professional 9 month shots done during the day, and then after work Gramma Jule and Grampa Steve-O came over for her monthly birthday fun! (Unkie B stopped by too) Gramma brought some muffins, and this month I let Juliette try a little bit :-) We also walked down to the park so Gramma could see her LOVE the swing...she did not disappoint! Here are some pics from their visit (sorry about the quality, I was having camera issues):

what's this?

oh, a present for me? i love presents!
yay! Alice in Wonderland!

Now about these muffins...

hmmm...

maybe that was too big of a bite?!?

HAPPY 9 MONTHS JULIETTE!!!

sorry...

...but my baby is the cutest. I know a lot of my friends all have babies now, and yours are cute, but mine is the cutest ;-) I am in love with her 9 month photoshoot preview shots! We packed a TON into just over an hour to simulate "a day in the life of Juliette". And no, she wouldn't normally change clothes that much, but I wanted to document some of her outfits I love! Thanks Katrina for the awesome shots!

big laughs on the changing table

bathtime...with my washcloth made by Laura

this looks so posed, but it was just a shot Katrina took while she was playing (the sweater was a gift from meghan's mom)

one of her easter outfits...the bunny ear hooded sweatshirt
Just TRY to tell me she is not the cutest thing ever :-)

say goodbye to my 30s!

Welp, that was a quick run through her 30's! Not only is she 39 weeks, but tomorrow she'll be 3/4!! Which to most people doesn't seem like a big deal, but I still remind my mom when it's my 3/4 birthday! I hope Juliette likes birthdays as much as I do!

And OMG is it getting impossible to take her picture with the lamb (which, btw, I found her birth certificate and her name is Blanca...yes, she came with a birth certificate!). Juliette KNOWS to look for the card and won't even look at me first- it's hard to keep the card in the picture- thus, only one pic where you can see it! And then she just wants to eat the card... Since it's Easter this weekend, we put on her "These are my Peeps" shirt :-) We have lots more Easter outfits to model in the coming days!

this is how fast she gets the card...i have no chance

i tried to hide it...nope
and she has no regard for poor Blanca, who she threw out of the way

victory...for her

this was even hard to get...

my chubby, i mean "jolly", baby

(she is smiling because i am holding the "week" card above the camera!)

i tried to hold the card out in front...she went for it

then i had her crawl to the card and got this nice little shot!

doing some playing

I was working this morning and Juliette was playing in her playroom...she doesn't play "unassisted" to often, but today she gave me a nice chance to get some stuff done while she was awake! However, she was really cute so I had to snap some pictures!

just playing by herself

trying to get another one, but she caught me!

summer in spring

Soooooo loving this weather...like everyone else! For me it is nice to be able to walk OUTSIDE! Seems so simple... It is also fun to walk to the park with Juliette because she LOVES the swing. Yesterday we went up there just before daddy got home and got this awesome pic! It's my new camera background :-)

the swing!

Ok, so the video is pretty sketchy b/c it's from Joey's phone, but I didn't want her first time on the swings not to be documented! (I had grabbed the video camera when we left for our walk, but it was dead and I still wanted her to try the swing!) There is a little park by our house so we walked over there (after a stop at Unkie B and Antie K's) to check it out. She LOVED the swing and we even went down the slide. Can't wait for the 70 degree weather later this week!!

38 weeks

Busy, busy weekend! We had dinner with Joey's parents on Friday night, then I had a shower on Saturday and bachelorette on Saturday night while Joey has his golf league smoker and had to move some furniture at his parents. Sunday Joey got out to he gym in the morning and hit some golf balls in the afternoon...I grocery shopped and made lunch for the week. So now I can finally sit down and update the pics from last week! In honor of Joe signing his big contract, we went with the Twins theme. The shirt (my 1st Twins tee) is from my friend Rachel, who happens to be married to Joe's brother, Jake. The blanket is from my Aunt Becky!

Joe's contract was for how much?

that's good, I am glad he'll be playing here
did you know that's like $43 a minute?
yahoo!
this is juliette practicing her 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th look...
