Day 2

Day 2: A picture of you and the person you have been close with the longest.I'm lucky to have two brothers but Jeff & I are only 15 months apart so we did a lot together. We had some of the same friends too. We haven't always gotten along but over the past 10 years or so we've become very close. He's getting married in May & I am so happy for him & his future wife! I love you Bubbs :-)

30 Day Picture Challenge

Since my last post, we found out Josh has to work 4 PM til midnight for the next few weeks. Today was our first day on this schedule and it's not too bad so far. Usually when he gets home at night we're both so tired that we just hang out with Zoey and the TV is usually on. This morning Josh was playing with Zoey while I got to shower and actually fix my hair and put on make up. We then went and walked around the mall to get out of the house and get some exercise. While we were out we signed up for a gym. I think we're going to like going. They have a child care so Josh and I can work out together and stay motivated. I think I'll like working out there because there are big windows into the kids area so I can see Zoey while I work out :-) I don't trust my baby with just anybody!
Since I'll have my evenings free I thought I would try out this 30 day photo challenge. I got it off Facebook but I thought not everyone will want to see it so I'll just stick it on here :-) So here it goes:
Day 1: A picture of you with 15 facts1. I'm not the kind of girl who takes pictures of herself all the time so this is pretty much the most recent picture of me by myself.
2. I have the best hubby ever. I know he was made for me :-)
3. I grew up with mostly boys (even cousins) so I was shocked to have a baby girl.
4. Zoey is the best thing that has ever happened to me & Josh
5. I love to read. If I get into a book I will stay up to finish it.
6. My passion is dance & I hope to start that back up soon.
7. I would love to move back to Oklahoma.
8. I just recently became obsessed with scrabble.
9. I want to travel to Paris soon
10. I'm addicted to Dr Pepper
11. I love running
12. I call my mom or she calls me everyday & probably will be this way forever
13. I'm definitely a daddy's girl :-)
14. I don't eat healthy at all
15. I have the best family ever!!

3 months old!

I'm a few days late but Miss Zoey is 3 months old. It feels like I just posted that she's 2 months old! It feels like she is still changing everyday. She still doesn't like tummy time but she is pushing up & sometimes she rolls herself over. She loves to talk, laugh & smile. I swear she says "Hi!" all the time. :-) She still has on old man's hair line but it is starting to fill in more on top.
She just started teething about a week ago. I feel so bad for her. You just tell she's hurting. I hope the tooth is about to push through. If she is getting too fussy we give her a bath or take her outside to make her feel better. It's been in the 70's here & she loves to be outside.

2 months old

I can't believe my baby girl 2 months old today. It is going by fast! We have a doctor's appointment next week so I don't know how much she weighs but I think she's close to 10 pounds now. She pretty much has a routine now. She goes to bed around 10:30 then wakes up around 2:30 to eat then again at 6:30 to eat then wakes up for the day at 10:00. She is smiling all the time now. We have a very happy baby. Josh can really get her smiling, she loves her goofy daddy :-)
People are always asking who she looks like so I found baby pictures of us so you can decide. After looking at them we think she doesn't look more like either one. She is half me & half Josh right now.

6 Weeks Old

Zoey had her first shot appointment with the doctor today. I was not looking forward to at all. She did really well though, she cried for only a few minutes. However, since we've been home she just wants one of us to hold her and snuggle. Needless to say, I am making Josh come to her next appointment.
We did find out she now weighs 8 lbs 15 oz. She is starting to wear some size 3 months clothes now. Also, the past couple days she has really discovered her smile. When we talk to her she will just grin at us. She is a very happy baby :-) We are so in love with our little girl!

Buddies

We were a little worried how Rocky would react to Zoey once she got here but ever since we brought her home Rocky has been really sweet to Zoey. If she starts crying he will come up to her & sniff her & make sure she is ok. He has even brought her his bone a couple times. Here's some pictures of them together.Don't worry, I was sitting right next to them & after Josh snapped the picture I picked her up.

Rocky likes it when Zoey plays in the floor.

Zoey

I just realized this week I haven't updated since our little girl was born, mostly because we have been pretty busy. Zoey was born on November 19th at 8:40 PM. Labor went by really fast for me. I started having contractions that morning but they were 30 minutes apart so we decided to go see a movie to take my mind off of them. We went to see the new Harry Potter movie. About an hour and a half into the movie they were getting closer together so we decided to just head into the hospital since it is 20 minutes away from where we live. As soon as I stood up from the seat my water broke. We got to the hospital around 2:30 and she was here 6 hours later. She really wanted to meet us!Zoey weighed 6 lbs 1 oz and was 18.5 inches long
I try to keep her awake during the afternoons so she sleeps better at night so I like to take her picture :-) Here's some of those:
