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!

Wittle Wed Waggin

Caroline got a little red wagon for Christmas and we tried it out Friday afternoon. The weather was cool and the wind was a little stiff so we bundled up Baby Gir and new baby doll, Giggles, for the ride. Papaw took them for a loop or two down the driveway. From all accounts, both enjoyed the ride!

The Race Is On

This has been quite the weekend for Caroline! Apart from a toofie getting reading to burst on the scene, Caroline is officially crawling. Well, sort of crawling...let's just say she is scootin' on her tummy and gaining ground quickly. Mommy sent me an iPhone video, Our Little Inchworm, a bit ago and I have posted here for everyone to watch. After saving and transfering, the image quality isn't that great but you can tell the little bugger is moving!! Note to self: Get knee pads, Aleve, and Shout from Wal-Mart!

Eight Months Old, No Way

BEFORE...
AFTER !
I know it's true because I was there and the calendar doesn't lie but....I can't believe Caroline is EIGHT months old! She is growing way too fast. In four short months, we'll celebrate her first birthday! Wahhht?
Granny and Papaw Glenn came up yesterday for a visit and brought lunch. After her nap, Caroline showed us her crawling skills in the living room. We sat her toys just out of reach and she would half crawl and half scoot to retrieve the toy!! She went a good distance before getting tired. It won't be many more days before she will be mobile and then it will be on! Not only is Caroline trying to crawl, she is just about to cut another toof. She has taken her bottles fine but is not eating her baby food as she usually does. Mommy checked out her gums and confirmed that the little Chiklet is well on it's way. Won't be long now! Earlier this week, Mommy sent me the photos on this post. Hint...toy placement!

Two Little Cuties Sittin' in a Tub

Splish splash, they were taking a bath....
CaroLion is enjoying tubby time with her bff, ChloeBear, from North Arkansas. Chloe, and mom Natalie, are in for a quick weekend visit at Windy Hills. It's been a while since the girls...big and little, have enjoyed a giggle party -I'm betting it will be a late night tonight!!
I wish we all lived a little closer to each other so everyone could visit more. Since that not possible, it just makes the time spent together all the more special. Hope you gals have a blast!!

Holidays Are Over


The holidays are over and everyone is back to work which means the grandmas are back to work in full force! Even though I've seen Caroline over the Christmas / New Year break, she has changed so much and grown by leaps and bounds! She is making many different noises and sounds and is gesturing in so many different ways. It's amazing how much she has changed!
Our little princess has learned how to use her two teefies to get your attention too! When I hold her sitting down, I normally face her forward and hold my hand on her tummy to help her stay balanced. Friday, I thought Caroline was kissing the top off my hand until I felt a sharp nip! I said ouch and moved my hand quickly. I had two little teef prints on the back of my hand. Caroline must have thought it  was funny as she tried it again! I kept my hand there just to see what he would do and sure nuff, she tried to nip me again! The little bugger!!
Caroline is eating very well. She likes everything but green beans and peas and I can't say I blame her too much there! She takes a big old 8 ounce bottle at night before bedtime and sleeps all night until 7 or 8 the next morning! It's unbelieveable that in 10 days Caroline will be 8 months old!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year errybody, hope your New Year has started off good! I rang in the New Year in a different way this year. Mommy and Daddy were invited to Cara and John's home and Caroline didn't really want to go with them so....she invited me to a sleep-over. Caroline was asleep when Mommy and Daddy left but soon woke up. We played with a few of her new toys but she didn't seem interested, she acted like she was still sleepy. I made her a big ole 8 ouncer and we rocked a little more as she had her bottle. Caroline went to sleep again! I kept rocking her for a bit longer to make sure she was good asleep. I guess I rocked both of us to sleep because half an hour later, I woke up to the neighbors shooting fireworks! It wasn't even close to midnight...yawn... I put Caroline in her room, whispered Happy New Year, and shuffled to the guest room with the baby monitor. We both slept like babies and woke up this morning to 2012!
