Poor Presley came back from California with a NASTY cold and cough, so Mom took her to the doctor to see what we needed to do for her. Even while sick, Presley was full of smiles and laughter. As you can see, Presley just adores Macie and her antics:
I go to school 5 long days a week, and while I am at school, Macie keeps herself occupied by playing dress up- she is really into jewelry.
We both enjoy playing dress up with Presley- good thing she doesn't complain and is always happy to play along!
I am having an awesome time at school, and am learning a ton! I love math, art, and reading, but also enjoy the morning fashion shows we have in the driveway!
Macie is also having an awesome time at school. She loves the rainbow room and all of her preschool friends. On Fridays she gets to bring an item for show and share, and her favorite thing to bring is her Pinkie Pie pony from Dad.
Some weeks she changes it up and brings her Angry bird...
Mom started sewing a little big again, and made Macie a new Angry Bird dress- Macie wents NUTS and wears it ALL THE TIME- Mom is going to make a few more!
On the days that Macie doesn't have school, her and Mom run errands with Presley in tow. Macie takes good care of Presley and is a great BIG sister!
At home, the two of them enjoy playing outside now that the weather in Arizona is perfect for outdoor fun! I wanted Presley to sit in my car with me, so Mom let me hold her long enough to take a picture. After that, Mom had an idea...
Mom put Presley in her infant seat, and secured it in the car. Presley had such a big smile on her face, that Mom decided I could take her for a spin around the yard.
Presley LOVED it!!!
She is going to be such a dare devil- she already loves the trampoline!!!
Indoors, Presley is having fun "playing in her pond." She is fascinated by all the toys around her!
Even with all the lights, colors, textures, and sounds at the pond, Presley is still much more fascinated by her sister Macie (who gets a little out of control)...
Presley just ADORES her!
With all the constant action, poor Presley sometimes hits a wall (believe it or not, but so does Uncle Will).
Since Presley is 5 months old, Mom decided it was time to try baby food...
The first feeding didn't go too well, but I don't know anyone that would be interested in rice cereal- YUCK!
After that, Mom decided to skip the cereal and go for the food. Presley seemed uninterested,
and even less so once she tasted the food.
Mom keeps trying over and over, but still has yet to find something that doesn't make Presley cringe.
She seems to be the happiest once Mom stops trying to feed her...
I will say, it is difficult to catch Presley without a smile on her face. She is the happiest baby ever!!!
Recently she discovered her tongue, so in the rare times when she is not smiling she is sticking out her tongue and making noises!
When she gets tired she stirs a bit and sticks her fingers in her mouth...
It drives Mom nuts, but it soothes her and puts her right to sleep.
It has been an exciting first month in our new house. Despite having lots to do, we have managed to still have tons of fun. I went to a few birthday parties and spent time with friends.
With October around the corner, Mom is excited for Presley to turn 6 months! Our family can't believe how quickly time has gone by, and how ABSOLUTELY amazing she is. We thank God everyday for our happy, healthy baby sister!!!
