Welcome to sweet Caroline's blogspot! For almost two years now, Caroline has been the spotlight of my bragging in the blog. Her only child status has changed and Caroline is getting a baby brudder! Rather than write two blogs, I am changing the name to include new bubby Ben! What a blessing these two children are in my life!

Fall Plantin' Time

The temps dropped pretty fast and it is chilly on Windy Hills! Caroline is all wrapped up, laid back, and chillaxin' in her stroller as she watches Mommy plant bulbs for this spring. Not to worry bout the cool temps though, Caroline has plenty of oh so cute blankets to chase away the chill and let's not forget all her stylish hats adorned with rhinestones! No need to be frumpy just because it's cool says Caroline! I love her cubby little cheeks peeking out from under her hat. They are just perfect for kissing.
I added a new video of Caroline earlier today, it's called Gettin' Jiggy With It. I apologize in advance for the shaky recording... it was me laughing at Caroline. Just couldn't help it!

Caroline the Caterpillar

Wednesday afternoon was Fall Festival time at the church. Mommy came home from school and quickly dressed herself as Betty Crocker. She had to be at the church early to work at the candy stand. Later, she said she got several funny looks while driving to the church in her chef hat! Daddy dressed Caroline and they left for the festival a little later. Caroline was a colorful caterpillar! She was so sweet all bundled up in her furry costume and didn’t seem to mind the warm temperatures that evening. A big thanks to Chloe and Nat Nat for the use of the caterpillar costume, it was a perfect fit!

Isn't She Lovely?


It's been a good week! Mommy went for a well check last Wednesday and Caroline and I went too! After Mommy's dr visit, we went to Red Lobster. Woohoo, it was good, good! To walk off our lunch, we went to Dillard's for a little retail therapy. Caroline was bored so she went to sleep early on in the therapy session!
Mommy went to the grocery store and bought so much food that the sacks took up all the counter space, leaving only a small spot for Caroline and bumbo! Looks like Caroline is really studying the nutritional info on the side of the 100 calorie packs!! Probably trying to decide if she wants chocolate or graham cracker!
I received a picture of our little Halloweenhooter. Caroline was hanging out with Mommy at home and think they were playing dress up. Isn't she cute? Caroline's shirt says Whooo's Got Treats?? Poor lil girl, just wait til next year, you'll get all the treats you can eat!

We Interrupt This Program ...

... to bring you some very important news just in. A little girl just told me about a birthday party she went to Sunday. She said the party was for a very special lady in her life, her great grandmother, who everyone calls Mamaw. She said that today is actually Mamaw's 90th birthday and asked me to send out big birthday wishes to her today. So Happy Birthday Mamaw, from Caroline and everyone at Windy Hills! We hope you have a wonderful day to celebrate YOU!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAMAW, I WUB YOU!

FIVE Months and Counting

Today our Sweet Caroline is five months old! That’s right, you read it correctly. FIVE months! Earlier today, I looked back at the first blog and found October 18th. On this day a year ago, Caroline was the size of an olive!! Now she’s here, healthy, happy, spitting, sputtering, kicking, and rolling! Best of all? We know what she is, our precious little GIRL!! High five Caroline!!

Bedtime Bubbles

Last night, around 10ish, I noticed that Daddy had sent me an email at 9:40ish. I opened the email on my handy dandy iPhone and saw that it was a video. Oh goodie, I love getting videos. I downloaded the video then waited for it to play. The screen was black but I was hearing a sound. It was Caroline blowing bubbles, the experts call it blowing raspberries. I'm thinkin', after listening to it twice, Caroline was supposed to be going to sleep and the room was dark, hence the black screen. This is now my new favorite video! I can just see the little stinker puckering her lips up, blowing spit as hard as she can, then taking a big breath to finish the sputter! Turn up your sound when you look listen to the video, Bedtime Bubbles, to hear Caroline entertain her Mommy and Daddy as she goes to sleep.

Punkin Went to the Patch

It was a beautiful day for a trip to the Punkin Patch! Our Sweet Caroline looked as pretty as a punkin in her red and white pokie dot capri ensemble!

The Bumbo Mumbo!

Caroline has been a little under the weather for the last day or two. We aren't exactly sure of the official name of her ailment but the general consensus is a tummy virus. Each time she drinks a bottle, you better look out cause it's coming back up!! Mommy and I both have gotten a milk bath! It doesn't seem to bother Caroline, she hasn't missed a lick. She's been in a good mood and not too fussy at all. I think she's feeling better as she has been very vocal the last few hours! Check out the new video, Bumbo Speech. I caught Caroline chattering up a storm while she was watching Mommy cook dinner. Yep, I think she's feeling better!

Our Little Buckaroo

I think Mommy and Daddy made an excellent choice in toys when they bought the jumpy thing for Caroline. I have gotten such a kick out of the videos that I'm getting of the lil Buckaroo jumping. I think she may go 8 minutes on the bull when she gets a little older!! Check out the video I just added, Our Buckin Bronco.
There is also a video added that Mimi sent me earlier. It's pretty funny too. Appears that Caroline is showing Papaw the proper technique on The Rollover move. She still has a little elbow work to improve on but over all, I think she's got it. Yay Caroline!

Hop, Skip, and Squeal

On Friday, Caroline and I made a trip south. I was a little nervous but we made it fine. After singing a few songs waaay too loud, I realized that Caroline had fallen asleep. Oh well, now I know ALL the verses to Mary Has a Little Lamb. Wanna hear them?
Granny and Papaw got a little stroller to push Caroline around in outside. We call it her Hot Wheels. Caroline was queen for a day and enjoyed the backyard immensely. Mommy and Daddy came to town after work to get a jumper bouncy thingy and eat pizza. Mommy sent me  a video today of Caroline in her new jumper. Sounds like she loves it. Check out the video to the right to hear one of Caroline's sessions!! Talk about a workout! Reckon those come in adult size?

Playing Footsie

A little birdie told me this has been a week of discovery for Caroline. And you know what? It's true!! Caroline has discovered her lil' bitty toes! We were on the floor having our morning meeting and Caroline became bored with the conversation. She grabbed a foot and started sucking on her big toe! I had to laugh...when Purty Gurl saw me laugh, she broke into a xxlg grin which caused her to lose suction on the toe. She worked hard to get her foot back to her mouth and finally made it ... but ... it was the other foot!! Oh to be limber again! Another feat that Caroline is working on is rolling from her back over to her tummy! Her execution is not real graceful but it's a roll over as far as we're concerned and she gets a 9.5!! She has a little trouble figuring out what to do with that pesky elbow... can't seem to work it out from under her tummy yet. Don't worry Caroline, I have the same problem sometimes!
