Oops...Forgot and important post!

WE GOT MARRIED! I guess that's another reason why I haven't posted in months. I was crazy busy.

Well, wedding day was hectic. I was late for my hair appointment, my Mom was going crazy taking care of last minute details and watching the baby. My brother (the best man) showed up literally 5 minutes before the wedding was supposed to start (I told him to be there an hour early). And to top it all of, we forgot the rings!!! Oh well, we improvised and no one even knew. My poor mother was running around the parking lot bare footed looking for them. :(

I can't thank everyone in my family enough for all of thier help. We left the rehearsal the night before and went straight to the reception site to do the decorations, then back home and stayed up until 5am doing flowers! How crazy is that? It was worth it, everything was perfect.

Whoa...I'm a bad blogger

WOW. It's almost May and I have posted anything in SOO long.

Well, Ariel will be 10 months this Saturday. I seriously cannot believe how fast she has grown up. I feel like I blinked and missed her being a little baby. She's still a baby but you know what I mean.

She is pulling her self up on everything, standing unassisted for almost a minute at a time. She wants to walk so bad.

I'm still trying to figure out what I want to do for her first birthday, a theme anyway. I think we are going to do a "princess" theme but NOT disney princesses. That's a bit hokey, considering her name.

I really need to post more often.

Happy New Year

New years eve was fun. I was pretty tired and not really feeling like staying up until midnight to watch the ball drop. I think if it hadn't have also been kind of like a count down to Ariel turning 6 months, I probably would have just stayed home. Ariel was actually awake during the countdown, so that was kind of cute. She had her little hat on and was chewing on the horn, ha ha. My little munchkin is getting so big so fast.

In other news. We've finally been able to set a wedding date. March 27th! I know, we're not wasting any time. I'm excited to finally have my wedding.

2009 Coming to a close!

Tomorrow my little angle will be six months old! SIX MONTHS?! Wow, when she was born I thought that was such a long time away and it's here. Before I know it I'll be planning her first birthday.

The holidays for my family have been bitter sweet. I'm so glad to have my family, they are they very foundation for who I am. Besides the birth of Ariel and a few other events, 2009 has been a pretty crappy year. Several of my family members have fallen ill, thankfully to recover, however we are still waiting on Aunt Mary to come home. We missed her greatly at Christmas and we will miss her dearly this evening as well. We just want her well.

Anyway, Christmas was fun! Ariel fell asleep during the Christmas Eve gift exchange but woke up shortly after. I think she just secretly wanted all the attention on her (like she doesn't always have it). Christmas morning we went to my sisters and did our morning "santa" gifts and then had Christmas dinner (which was more like a lunch). The following day we had Christmas with just myself, Steve, and Ariel (since he had to work on Christmas). We are truly blessed.

Ariel has gotten both of her bottom teeth in! First the right one came in and then it seemed like the next day the left one came through. Right in time for Christmas!

I'm so excited to bring in the new year. I'm hoping 2010 brings health and happiness to everyone.

First Trip to Disney

December 19, 2009

Ariel's First Trip to Disney

We met up with my wonderful friend Elizabeth and her beautiful daughter Scarlett, who is 6 weeks younger than Ariel. We had such an amazing time. Took lots of pictures, the girls rode "It's A Small World" twice (Scarlett was asleep the first time), Winnie The Pooh, and Snow White. They were so tuckered out from the day, even though it was only a few hours. These are the moments I love!

Holidays are coming!

Well, Thanksgiving is coming up on Thursday and then Christmas will be here before we know it! I can't believe how fast the year has gone by! My little munchkin is growing up so fast.

Anyway, so Halloween was fun. Ariel got dressed up and looked as adorable as ever in her little Dorothy costume.

She turned 4 months on November 1st! I took her for her second round of shots. She did a lot better this time, it was still painful. She weighted in at 14.6 pounds. My little chunky monkey!

I'll post again after Thanksgiving! Lots of love!

Another month goes by

Well, tomorrow is Ariel's first Halloween. She is going to be dressed up at Dorothy! I can't wait. She will be adorable (of course).

Since I last blogged, she has gotten so big. She is talking all of the time. Just a few nights ago we watched her roll from back to belly. She had a bit of a hard time but she did it. She's been rolling over from belly to back for a while now.

I'm pretty sure she's teething now. I think I said that before but this time I really think she is, ha ha. SHe really likes to have her gums rubbed and she loves chewing on anything she can put in her mouth!

I can't wait for the rest of the holidays! It's gonna be so exciting to celebrate them all with her. Well actually, I can wait cause that'll mean that she's getting older. The time is going by so fast!
