FIVE!!!!

Ariana turned FIVE yesterday!!!

I can't believe she is FIVE!!

I cried Saturday night. She was so happy that Sunday was her birthday. She kept telling everyone today (Saturday) was her last day as a four year old!!!

She is my silly child. I think if grandma Debbie was still alive she would tell me Nana was just like Justin when he was little. She keeps us on our toes.

If she gets quiet she is up to something. She has us laughing all the time. The thought that go there her little mind her crazy.

If I had to think of one of my favorites. I would have to say what she says when she gets hot!! Every time she gets hot she says she is having a hot flash!!! I think she might spend too much time with Aunt Lala and Momo. Or the other day she told Heather if she doesn't wear shoes outside she is going to get a corn!! Hilarious!!

Here are a few things she loves:

She loves to play outside.

She loves to think she is in charge!!

She loves her baby dolls.

She love to sing and dance.

She loves to change her clothes 10 times per day.

She loves to ask WHY!!!

She loves to go eat at Gatti-town.

She loves her sisters.

She loves to make up her own songs!!

She is growing up so fast. She will start kindergarten in the fall. Some days she is ready. But there are days she wants to stay home.

She is such a blessing to us. She is my little nurse! She gets us bandages and medicine for every ones boo boos. She loves being my helper. She moped the kitchen for me this morning! I love her!!

I will try and post pictures later. Blogger is trippin!!!

365 days!!!

That is how many days I have been blessed to have Milliana Jade in my life!!

One year ago today God blessed us with a 6lb 6oz 18inches long sweet bundle of joy!!She was tiny!! This was the day she came home. She weighed 5lbs 12oz! That is her and her papa John.

(had to debo this picture from Carrie's blog. I don't have any baby baby pictures on this labtop.)

She came early!! Her due date was May 6Th!! But she decided she wanted to meet her Mommy and Daddy on April 28th, 2009.

I believe it was 3 in morning when I knew something was wrong. I had started to bleed. I yelled at Justin to wake up and call my mom so she could come stay with Anika and Ariana.

We got to the hospital and they called up stairs and came and got me. They put me in a wheelchair and wheeled me up stair. As we where in the elevator the nurse asked me who my doctor was. I told her Dr. Smith. She told you will have your baby today!!! I started to get nerves. Even though I have had two csections and know what to expect. I still get scared!!

Once Dr. Smith got there he told I was going to have my baby soon!! I felt like it took forever but it didn't. Milliana made her entrance at 5:33am!!! I didn't get to see her right away. She had to get some oxygen but then she was fine. As soon as Anika and Ariana woke up they were at the hospital to hold their new sister!!

I never had a sister. It is so sweet to see the love between sisters.

This year has been amazing! MJ is very laid back and a happy baby. She can sleep anywhere. She is still shy around new people or people she doesn't see that often. That is something I am still trying to get uses to. Anika and Ariana would go to anyone but Milli is a momma's girl. It hurts Justin's feelings sometimes. Her little personality or I should say BIG personality is starting to come out!! We call her our little bird. When she sees someone eating she wants what they have. She is constantly snacking! I guess that is a plus since she is still so tiny! She likes fruit of any kind!! But I think I can say strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries are her favorite. She also loves tomatoes, carrots, spaghetti, avocado, cucumbers, yogurt, and black beans. I probably can say any food!!! Like I said she loves to eat!!. She also likes to share her food, too!! She is such a sweetheart.

We also call her Silly Milly!! She is such a ham!! She loves to turn the TV off and on. She loves to dance. She spins in circles, nods her head and claps her hands when she hears music. The other day Justin was chasing and growling at her and she stopped running and turned around and started to growl at him!! She loves to unfold the laundry for me!! But she is kind enough to put them back into the basket when I tell her to clean up. She loves to help me load the dishwasher. She loves going to Barneyville. She loves to try and touch the chickens.

She loves bath time!! If the girls are taking a bath and she has already had hers she tries to climb back into the tub. Her favorite toy in the tub is my little pony ponies and squirt toys. Her favorite toys outside of the tub are her piano, basket, and baby.

Now that she is running everywhere she hardly stays still. So I enjoy the time when she takes her bottle, naps and bedtime. Her favorite place to sleep is in our bed!! Just like her sisters!! She still doesn't like to lay down to get her diaper changed. She is just so busy getting into everything!!

She loves to be outside!! She likes the park but I have to watch her around the rocks. She likes to eat them!! She loves to swing and slide down the slide with the girls.

I still can't believe she is ONE!! One year had flown by!! I feel like it has been a blink of an eye.

I want to do a better job of updating my blog for my girls. I don't do scrapbooking so this is going to be their baby books!!!

Here are some pictures of MJ!!

11 months

MJ is 11 months!!!!

And she is running everywhere!! And goes non-stop until she is ready to eat or take a nap!

Her personality is starting to come out.

She loves to get into everything. She empties out her diaper box probably 3 times a day!!!! And then attempts to put them back. But she is not very successful.

She has cut 3 top teeth. And loves to bite with them!!!

Now that she has her teeth so doesn't want to eat baby food. She wants our food!!!! She is so funny. When you give her something to eat she has to hold it herself. She takes a little bite with her 5 teeth!! It is so cute to hear her little crunch.

She has started to suck her thumb!!! She doesn't do it alot.

Every time you tell her,"Aww......man!" She puts her hand on her head. She loves music!!! She claps and dances when she hears music. She loves to play dress up with her big sisters. Just this morning to was wearing a tutu over her pjs.

She loves her baby!! She cuddles with her. It is so cute. It melts my heart every time I see her. She is still a cuddly baby herself. When I pick her up she lays her head down on my shoulder and holds me tight!! I hope she never stops doing that.

She loves to laugh!!! Ariana can just start laughing just to laugh and MJ starts laughing!!! And sometimes sticks her tongue out when she is laughing!!! Actually if I think about she sticks her tongue out alot. It reminds me of myself. When I was little I did that in almost every picture my mom took of me!!!

I can't believe in one short month she will be ONE!!! It has gone by so fast!!

Ok enough typing!!! Here are some pictures!!!

And she is walking already. Crazy I know.

In two months Milli Moo will ONE year!!

I can't believe how fast she has grown.

Her new thing these days is DANCING!! I love it.

She loves to talk and laugh at herself.

She is constantly losing a sock. But she always manages to find it. And when she does she eats it!

She is still very much a mama's girl.

But everytime Justin comes home she walking to the front door to meet him!! It is so cute!

Loves to pretend to talk on the phone. But she doesn't hold the phone up to her ear she puts it on the back of her head!!!

On February 26th my baby turned SEVEN!!!!

I can't believe Anika Lynn is seven.

Seven years have past!!

I remember her very first days in the hospital.

I made my mom and aunt going on a hunt looking for the perfect outfit to take her home in.

After 3 trips to the mall we finally found it.

God has grown her into an amazing little girl. We are so proud of her.

She cares deeply for her family and friends. She loves God with all her little heart.

When she does something she is not suppose to do. I explain why it is wrong and what God's word says about it and she is truly sad.

She has a beauitful soul! I love that I have a front row seat in seeing God grow and change my sweet little girl!

I LOVE YOU BIG MAMA!!
