My first baseball game! ...and other stuff

I went to my first baseball game! We were in a Suite! It was fun...I think. The Angels lost though... (don't tell "uncle" Phil that every time mom and dad go with them, the Angels lose...hmmm)

Well, here we are!



Me and "uncle" Phil (mom and dad's close friend) doesn't he look sooo happy to be holding me? He just loooooooves babies... he's not nervous at all...nooooo not Phil....ha!


Don't worry Phil! You won't drop me on my head!


Oh I'm so happy with my "Auntie" Sarah (Phil's wife)

Much better...all I needed was my Binky. I tried to tell somebody!


Nobody told me that baseball games were sooooo long!


Smiling at Daddy. (I'm glad Mommy put that headband on me so I didn't look like a boy)




notice my color coordinating Binky


I love playing with Daddy's beard, it's so pokey.


My Great-Grammy Taulbee (mom's grandma) I met her a couple months ago, but didn't really get to spend any time together, so this day she held me for a couple hours and even got to feed me some.


I got my 4 month shots about a week ago. See my bandaids. You know, I'm reeeally beginning to not like nurses (except my Mama Bea and Auntie Ali)...they're always poking me!


This is how I fall asleep. I rub my face, sometimes with both hands...well, if no one will do it for me, I have to sooth myself!

My dedication and Mother's Day

My dedication was awesome! Pretty much all my immediate (immediately extended) family was there! My three Grandmas, three Grandpas, FOUR Great Grandmas, two Great Grandpas, six aunts (missing my aunties Bethany, Ali, Joy and Charity), one uncle (missing my uncle Michael), my mom and dad (of course)... Happy Mother's Day to them all! (not the boys though or those who aren't moms yet)
It was a rare day. I even got to sit through the whole church service...in BIG church!! I didn't even cry or anything! I actually napped a bit, (no offense to Pastor Rick!) We had fun at lunch at my house (nobody would share their roast beef croissant sandwich or carrots with me) but I did get to taste my cake! yummy! (but all I really wanted was my binky).

Here is everyone... Great Granny and Gramps Rohde were in the seats though, Gramps is in a wheelchair... I would have built him a ramp if they would have let me!


Daddy prayed.



Dad sang and Grandpa Sheets directed the choir. (not for me, but I like to think so)


I looove my Grandpa Taulbee (mom's dad) He's big and cozy!


Grandma and Grandpa Taulbee, Great-Grandma Taulbee, and Aunt Dana and Grace. (Auntie Grace is being silly! She's a hottie...and single...any takers?)



Mama Bea and Grandma Lattos


Grandpa Lattos and Grandpa Sheets


My cake, the verse is:
The everlasting God is your place of safety, and His arms will hold you up forever.-Deuteronomy 33:27
Carol, our pastor's wife, got that verse from God while I was in NICU the first couple days after I got here. Mom and Dad picked that for my life verse...I like it.


Mommy and her three sisters...and me!


My beautiful Aunt Katherine! I love her! She takes care of me on Tuesday nights so mom and dad can go to their Young Marrieds Bible study and she lets us borrow all her DVDs.


and my pretty Aunt Jessica (she calls me Ray Ray)


Great Gramps and Granny Rohde


Four generations! So cool!


Another four generations! (I'm not happy... well, three Sheets men and I'm a girl!)


Grandpa Lattos joined us for a man picture...okay, I'll not cry for one of these, even though I'm the only girl. (I love my daddy and my Grandpas)


I'm getting tired of all the pictures! Okay, just a few more.


Another four generations, times three! (Daddy and Grandpa Sheets are missing to make the chain)


Now I'm starting to not like being passed around.


My pretty dedication dress (and mom's foot)



I didn't wear the bonnet that matched my dress, maybe I should have!




I'm a colonial baby!


Great Grandpa Sheets got these three pictures... he takes great pictures!




Mom tried to throw me over the bannister... well, okay, she's just showing me off.


Mommy and Daddy...I'm done with this dress!


This is what I say to any more pictures..

Just some new pictures

I've discovered my voice recently and I have decided that I should be able to use it any time I like. Mom and dad don't seem to appreciate it sometimes...what? I have to wait until the sun is up? But you said it was cute! They say it's cute but cuter when it isn't 4:00am... (I do it just about every day at 4)...I just want to be with them...at least I'm not crying.
Okay, here are some new pictures:

Napping on grandma's lap.


What is under here?


Helping daddy on the computer.


I LOVE my bath time... now even more cause I know how to suck on my towel!


My sunday dress.


My first summer outfit. It was hot enough one day last week to acctually wear it. Can't wait for summer!!


I'm just plain cute!


Mom says I look like an older baby in this picture.


I've discovered my hands in the last few weeks...how much I love to suck on them! I almost don't need my Binky...I SAID ALMOST!


Me, mom and grandma all wearing pink sweaters! Not planned!



Lovin' my activity mat!


Suckin' on my hands...and my shirt!


Flash was off, but here's a smile!
