Snow pics

Precious little snow prints
Bailey walking in the snow :)
See all the snow on her gloves? She was having so much fuN!

Lots and lots of snow!

As you can see, we have gotten quite a bit of snow today and it keeps on coming!

This is around 1000am or so

4pm when we headed outside.
Snow accumulation over an inch...and counting!
Bailey's first experience with snow "on the ground"

One of those days

What do you do when it is really cold outside and you are sick? You snuggle up with your blankie and froggie of course! We have spent a couple mornings this week like this.....hopefully we will feel better soon, but until then we are enjoying the extra down time just hanging out.



PEEKABOO!

Enjoy these two videos of Bailey and Jace playing Peekaboo!

No Bake Frugal Granola Bars- Yummy!

I had found a recipe for no bake granola bars and thought to give it a try.... I could use some cheaper alternatives to all of Bailey's snack foods! This recipe is fairly healthy..I substituted cheerios for crispy rice cereal (didn't have any). I think I will always make it with Cheerios though. It turned out really well. This made 24 bars!!! Try finding that many for the price to make these at the store. I plan on adding some wheat germ and something to bump up the protein (powder maybe?) next time. I froze 3/4 of these to pull out when we need them (the website said they freeze well). So far- Bailey and I really have enjoyed them.

Bailey and Jace 1/13/09

I had the privilege of watching Jace the day before his Daddy got back from Afghanistan. This gave his mommy time to get some stuff done without constantly having to pick up after a 1 year old (God bless them)! Jace and Baily had a ball and always enjoy playing together. They recognize one another and now say each other's names!!! I think they are adorable.

This is Jace at 15 months.
Bales
Trying to get a pic with both of them...they were both standing a second ago.....darn digital camera. I tried having them both sit, stand..anything and they would move instantaneously! Not a good age for pics :).

Better late then never....

Here are some more pics of the Cellon clan on New Year's Day on UF's campus (the greatest place on earth!!!) GO GATORS!

I love the gators!Aunt Linz at 35 weeks and Mommy at 24 (not fair to have such a skinny sista in law, huh!) So far, it is all girls being added to the Cellon family :)

We have a name!

Blair and I have finally decided after much debate on baby #2's name! Blair came up with Anneleigh, and while we both liked it- we found we were having to spell it for everyone to even understand what we meant. I don't want my child to have to go through life like that! We had another conversation and really liked Taylor. SO, Taylor Anneleigh it is! This is exactly what we did with Bales too...we decided on Elizabeth and then didn't really like it after awhile and went with Bailey Elizabeth. We are so weird.

This is me on 1/1/09...I think I was 23 or so weeks.

Our trip to FL

Below are some pics my brother took with his awesome camera. They are pretty much the only ones that I have of our whole trip that she is looking at the camera. His camera takes pics immediately, while mine has that stupid delay. Enjoy!

How old are you Bailey?
In control already.
Silly girl
Go Gators!
Pretty girl
You talking to me?

Brother's wedding

This is a pic that was taken at my brother's wedding in October. I just got it and thought it was cute!

My baby is 16 months old today!

I just realized today is Bailey's 16th month birthday. I have no picture due to the fact that we spent the day lounging around the house trying to desperately knock the vicious colds we have down.

Bailey continues to amaze me on a daily basis. She is now sleeping through the night normally until 7am. She is still between 1 and 2 naps a day, but does much better on the days where 1 nap is the only possibility (Sundays). We are still working on getting her to drink soy milk out of a sippy as opposed to drinking her prescription formula out of a bottle. It is coming slowly, but hopefully soon we will be there! Her favorite things are putting together puzzles, throwing her "ball" and playing with her pianos. She also learned how to "bark" like a dog and tries to do that to our kitty :).

I am excited that in 2 months Blair will be home and less then 2 months after that we will welcome our second daughter home. There are lots of things to do before both of those events happen! I am so glad God gives us 9 months (or 8 in Bailey's case) to prepare! Overall the pregnancy continues to go well. Their have been a couple signs that preeclampsia might be making a comeback...I have been gaining weight a little too fast in the past month. Some of it has already come off in the past few days (fluid)....

Christmas at the Cellon's.

Bailey loved climbing on Lindsay's new pots and pans box.

Christmas morning fun

Bailey building one of her many towers- she is getting really good!
Is this where my presents are?

Christmas Posts!!

We made it back to NC on Friday night. I am done traveling for a very long time by myself with a toddler. All I can say is that we made it alive! It wasn't fun or glamorous and I have Elmo loves Pets embedded in my brain, but we made it!!!! We had a great time at both the Patterson's and Cellon's. Here are some pics from the trip.
