10 years ago...

Since I didn't have a blog 10 years ago, I thought I would post a few pics from the past!

Some wonderful memories!

I remember finding this nursery in a Pottery Barn Magazine and just getting my heart set on it!  The ceiling was painted with these big polka dots...and I was just determined to duplicate it! Rob was a good sport!

We knew we had the right baby after she was born...one word...CHEECKS! And they are the sweetest cheecks ever! 

 I do not remember being THIS swollen! Wow! Kinda glad I don't remember!

I do remember this night before being induced!  We watched the Mavs!

Meeting Lawson Elise Buie

8lbs 12 oz

My poor baby!  Had a little fluid in her lungs and spent her first 2 days in NICU.  She was fine but it was a little unexpected!

 First time I got to hold her.  I had a C-section...and couldn't walk yet from the epidural.  They had to wheel my entire bed into the NICU to see her a few hours after she was born.  It was quite a seen...bumping me into many walls and corners!

First Family Photo

Time to go home!

First Neighborhood walk...just a few days old

Love these sweet little lips! I remember telling her out loud that "No matter what...your mommy will always love you." 

She was a good sleeping buddy...took everyone out!

Newborn pics we took.  I had them printed by Naptime Productions.  They contacted me and asked me if they could use this pic on several of their samples in their magazine. Her first modeling job!

First Easter

My First Mother's Day

Crazy baby!  When you would hold her she would arch her back, throw her head back, and push back with her legs into this postion!  People would look at us like we were crazy when they saw us holding you like this.  We would pull you back and she would just do it again!

 

She loved laying on the piano and listening to Rob play!  She would just coo and kick-kick her feet! So cute!

 Crazy little Sleeper!  I would wake up in the morning freaked out by how she was sleeping!

Watching Sunday football!

 Poor sick baby!

 Man! She could fly in this thing!  She would chase me around the kitchen...those wheels rolled on our hard wood floors!

Could I BE any happier?

Learning to sit up! Mom's hand is close by...not totally stable!
