Punky at 5 months


Well today my sweet Alice is 5 months old. I can hardly believe it. The time sure does fly!!! We have started her on some rice cereal, she is awfully funny about eating it. She tends to lean forward towards the spoon, and sometimes if I don't get it in her mouth fast enough, she starts to cry.




She still is not sleeping through the nite. I think she would get there if I could get her into her crib. She sleeps with us. When she was way small it was a lot easier on me. She hates to sleep on her back though. So I am going to try and have her nap on her tummy sometime this weekend to see what happens. I mean good lord, back in the day moms used to drink and smoke while pregnant, as well as laying their kids on the tummy to sleep, and most kids were just fine.




Alice laughs and laughs all the time. She loves when you blow raspberries on her tummy, and when Ayla licks her hand. I enjoy every minute that I can spend with my sweet goober. She is so silly, I can't imagine our live with out her.




I do miss Gunny everyday. I wish he could have been here to meet Alice. I can only imagine how he would be with her. Quite gentle of course, but probably not concerned with her, but more concerned about what Ayla is doing. As was his usual temperament. I miss him so much everyday.




Gunny, I know you are up in heaven having a great time, I can only hope that you are looking down on all of us, and watching over us. I miss you and love you!!!

My favorite place

I have decided that my favorite place in the whole wide world is Alice's room. I absolutely love sitting in the rocking chair rocking my sweet fussypants girl to sleep. The weight of her warm little body on me is the best thing in the whole entire world. I love her beautiful peach beige room and the far far away fabrics in orange, purple and pink.

Each day my love for her grows bigger and bigger. I love every little thing about her. My girl is now 4 months old! I can hardly believe it. I feel like soon she is going to be driving and saying things like "mom you're embarrassing me!" I have a picture on my desk of her wearing her little outfit for her announcement. Her legs look like teeny tiny toothpicks! They look so cute and small. She definitly doesn't have toothpick legs anymore. She loves it when you hold her up and she can stand on her legs. She gets a big huge smile on her face.

I love you my sweet sweet Alice.
