4 Months Old

Today Danica went in for her four month check-up...She will be four months tomorrow. My little monster weighs 15 pounds 10 oz and is 24 1/2 inches long...You should see her leg rolls... When i change her I have to make sure that I get between two sets of rolls... She had to have 4 shots, 3 in her legs and one that is liquid in her mouth... She did good until the shots and she stopped crying right after they were done and just stuck her bottom lip out and tears ran out of her eyes... It was funny, but sad. When we went in she was looking around and smiling at everyone that looked at her, but when we left she just held her blanket up to her face and wouldn't even look at me or anyone else... I think that her feelings were hurt... But overall she did a pretty good job...

SPORTS WEEKEND; EVERY WEEKEND!

K so you all probably know that in our house it is sports, sports, and more sports, this is what our weekend consist of all the time.. First comes Friday; this sport is usually the truck/Nascar races, and of course if there is any football, golf, volleyball, ect, that is on it is an always flipping between the channels. Then there is Saturday, this is also Nascar; I cant remember which one this is called to get the terms right, but it is the busch cars, and of course any other sports. Then comes Sunday; Nascar/Cup Series, football anything else. Monday;football. Not just one game of football, when your in TWO fantasy football teams that means you watch EVERY football game that comes on Monday-Sunday. This isn't really a bad thing. I don't mind watching sports, I have learned a lot of new things in the past 3 years, I just don't like my whole TV watching to be sports. I do have a few favorite shows I like to get in.

So now there has been a turn of the worse. Its just my little side-kick has just betrayed me. Danica used to give me an excuse to always have to get up or "oh man I'm out of diapers, guess we need to run to Wal Mart real quick" She has went to the other side. Here is the evidence. I was crushed.

Now this isn't a bad thing, I actually think that its cute. Here are some more pictures of my little traitor and the enemy..

These are my favorite pictures. Danica LOVES her daddy so much.

A LITTLE HERE & A LITTLE THERE!!!

Here are just some pictures that I have recently taken over the past couple of weeks. It so crazy how time flies by so fast. Danica is starting to have such a fun personality.. She is quit the character. I think that she may be a little out of control when she gets older. I can't wait..

Loves her swing.

Look at those CHEEKS!!!

Double chin..

She is my little laundry helper...

HaLlOwEeN

This year for Halloween we went to Escalante. Being the smart one that I am, I did NOT take one picture of Danica. Why I have no idea. She was a pea-in-a-pod. I know not very girlish, but thats all I could find that would fit her. She did great for the first hour, then she sacked out and slept the rest of the time. I do have some pictures of when we first got her costume a month before, as you can see its a little big for her. I will get some pictures from my mom and put them on here sooner or later.

GrAnDmA & ThE WiLd ThInGs CoMeS To ViSiT

On Thursday my mom and Jamie & the Kids came down to visit, and of course do some shopping. Danica loves watching Capri. Capri would sing her the freckled frog song and Danica would smile from ear to ear. Capri is going to be my little babysitter. I think that we are going to have to have Capri move in so she can keep Danica entertained. She helps me change, feed and get Danica in the bath. She always tells me "She is so so cute, I think that I will keep her". Then when I ask her how she is going to feed her she tells me, "Well I guess you can come too". Danica really likes Capri, Chasey & Caitlynn, they are all a big help in keeping Danica entertained while they are here. Here are some pictures of what we did this weekend.

Long Week

This past week Danica has been sick with the cold. She was running a temp of 102 and had a sore throat.We ended up having sleep in our rocking chair cause she couldn't sleep on her back cause she couldn't breath laying down. Our nights would consist of trying to get her to eat so she would stay hydrated and sucking her nose..Finally we had to put her in a hot bath to try and see if it would loosen up and drain out. This worked a little, so she was getting bathed 2 or 3 times a day so we could suck it all out. Still with her being sick she was such a trooper. On Friday she was starting to feel better and now she is back to her old crazy self. Here are some of her pictures that we took yesterday cause she was so so happy. Hopefully there aren't too many, but they are so cute.

I think she was finally tired of us taking pictures.

3 MONTHS OLD, ALREADY!

Today Danica is 3 months old.. Its so crazy how fast time flies. She is a really good baby, we couldn't ask for a better baby. She is starting to coo/talks a lot and she never stops smiling. We are excited to see her grow, and can't imagine life without her..

5 Generation Pictures

This Monday Danica and I went up to Richfield to meet my mom , Jamie and her kids, and my Grandma Shakespear to get her and Jamie's 5 generation pictures done with her Great Great Grandma Shafer. It was good to see her and she was doing really good. She loved Danica. She would just follow her around and make cooing noises to her... All of the other ladies there were so happy to see all of the kids. They kept asking if Danica was a real baby and if she cried.. (now remember we are at a care center so everything is easily forgotten) All the ladies sat and watched as if they had never seen kids before..One of them even asked what Danica's name was and when I told her she said, well that's an unusual name.. I thought it was funny. Anyways we all had a good time and we cant wait to go back and visit her again. Here are some pictures of our little trip.

Danica's First Big Hunt!!!

This last weekend Eric, Danica and I went to Escalante so Eric could go hunting with my dad and so I could go to Danni's wedding. Let me tell you, Escalante it WAY colder than St. George is. We froze. My Mom, Caitlynn, Chasey, Capri, Danica and I drove up on the mountain to go see if the guys were still alive. It was a slow drive from all of the wash boards but we still had a good time. Danica didn't do bad at all, she was really good. Believe it or not she even slept through the bumpy ride.

Sleeping with Grandpa

On that Saturday we drove over to Rubys to go to Danni's wedding. Danni look so pretty, and the wedding went great. Danica was in a way good mood the whole time with just the occasional feeding in between but she did awesome. We had a great time and even got snowed on, on the way home.
