Baby in a Basket

Recently, Bailey has realized that she can fit in her "diaper" basket. She takes out all of the diapers and plops herself in and acts like she is rocking herself. It is the cutest thing! Forgive me of my 3 baskets of laundry in the background....I take them all upstairs after Bales has gone to bed :)

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

For about 5 minutes today, it snowed! It wasn't just an occasional flake either, it was really coming down!!! So exciting for this Florida girl. My friend Sandy and her daughter Olivia were over and they weren't quite as excited (Sandy is from Pennsylvania). Bailey didn't know what to think about it :).


See the flurries on my head?

Happy Fall Day

Bailey LOVES to go outside and the last few days it has been rainy and nasty. Today it was in the low 60's without a cloud in the sky! We spent awhile outside enjoying the weather and all the leaves that have fallen.

Bailey climbing up the stairs outside---we do this several times a day inside!

Go Gators!

Go Gators! Beat South Carolina big.

Cheese!

CHEESE!!

Yes, Bailey is now eating cheese for the fourth day now and doing well. Yeah!! No more milk allergy! We are still avoiding egg like the plague, but just having one allergen to avoid is so much easier then milk and egg. She loves baby goldfish and cheese sticks now :).

Bailey's favorite things: Shoes and Elmo!

Bailey LOVES shoes...she has gotten very good at putting them on and walking through the house. She puts on her shoes, my shoes and guests shoes (sorry Cecilia!) Next step: heels!

Trick or Treat

Bailey officially didn't go Trick or Treating this year (I personally think 1 is a little too young :)), we did go to a couple events that she got to dress up . Here is Bales in her outfit (Gator Cheerleader) with her friend Madison.GO Gators!
Meeting a different kitty cat.

Mike's Farm

Today some of my friend's at Radio BN got together and went to Mike's Farm. It is a farm outside of Jacksonville that has a petting zoo, bakery, restaurant, hayrides, pumpkin patch and tree farm. We enjoyed all but the tree farm today. It was awesome! Bailey didn't really care for the pumpkins too much though- she was more interested in just walking around and getting dirty. The food was really yummy- they do everything "family style" with the same menu everyday: Biscuits with ham, Fried chicken, Mac n cheese, sweet corn, green beans, and mashed potatoes /gravy with 3 choices for dessert (pumpkin delight, cheesecake and banana pudding). My favorite of it all was the ham biscuits!


Is that the one you want Bailey?
Happy Bales

The downside of Mike's Farm: Bailey got her first bee sting as we were heading out. Her finger swelled up pretty bad as well as her forearm. These pics were taken a few hours later after a dose of Advil......it looked like it hurt really bad!!!

The sting was on the inside of her pointy fingerThe swelling- poor girl.

Pretty girl.
Terrorizing the house-can you tell in the background?

Last night I was trying to make dinner for Bailey and I, however, she was ready for dinner right then. I turned on the PBS kids channel and she instantly stoppend and stared. A few minutes later, I went back into the living room to check on her and found that she had SAT herself down in front of the TV and was just laughing away at the show. This lasted long enough for me to finish dinner and get it ready. She never has payed attention to the TV before...and while I would prefer that she not watch too much of it, it was great to have the other night. (especially while Blair is deployed and their is only me!)

Gainesville

After Crestview, Bailey and I traveled to Gainesville. Bailey stayed with the Cellon's while I headed back to NC to attend a conference. After the conference I drove back to Fl to pick her up. Not many pics of Gainesville this time around, but I know Grammie has tons on her camera!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH GUYS. It was wonderful attending a conference and letting God speak to me in quietness, but was only possible knowing that Bailey was in excellent care. While at the Cellon's, she loved playing with Rocky (their dog). She also loved going outside and eating Grammie's yummy food.

Great Grandparents: Poppy and Eleanor

Goodbye Grandma and Grandpa!
