12 Months

I completely forgot to post Molly Grace's 12 month post! 
Her stats: 19 lbs 5 oz and 29 1/2 inches long
Here is my big girl at 12 months!






We gave her a basketball goal that sings and counts

And her very own chair!

We celebrated her day with birthday pancakes, complete with sprinkles!

Life lately...

We have had quite a busy week. We started off last Friday by going to the doctor. Molly Grace just was not acting like herself. She was cuddly and fussy. The nurse was concerned so we loaded up around 2 pm and saw Dr. Corto. As soon as he saw her, he looked in her ears and said, "Yep, there's the frog in there," looked in her right ear and said, "Oh Mom, this one is worse." Needless to say, we made it 12 months with no ear infections and MG decided to celebrate with a double ear infection. We are on antibiotics. She is doing much better, still has a runny nose, but is getting better.

Waiting on Doctor Corto


Win was off on Monday, so we decided to head to the zoo that afternoon. It was a little crowded but we still had a good time.


Mrs. Rebecca and Ayda came over on Tuesday. We got to play all day with them! We love our time with the Hickman family!









We bundled up and got to enjoy the beautiful day!

On Wednesday, we decided to get Molly Grace a potty. She picks up on things rather quickly for her age, so I wanted to get her used to seeing the potty and just see what she would do. Well, I can proudly say she has used her potty 6 times so far! I ask her, "Do you need to go potty?" and if she does, she will walk to the bathroom and I'll put her on it and usually she goes immediately. I am being very consistent with when I ask her so that she will get used to going. She loves flushing the big potty and loves her "treats". I am just playing around with this and if I can get  her daytime potty trained that would be awesome! I'm sure it will be a long process, but we are having fun with it! She amazes me every day!

Her very first time on the potty!



We hope everyone has a happy weekend! We will be having our last photo session with our amazing photographer on Saturday!

SNOW day!

Molly Grace had her first snow yesterday! That is a huge deal in Alabama! It started off with very light flurries, but it picked up and we had a good snow that actually stuck enough to build a snowman! Molly Grace was napping during the best part of the snow, but when she woke up we got to go out and get a few pictures to document her snow day! Win got off work around 3 and was able to enjoy it with us as well.

Our little snowflake is growing so fast, it's hard to believe a year has passed!

"Happy birthday to you!"


She was not so sure at first about the cake. She wanted the icing to come off of her hands but it wouldn't.
Squealing to let everyone know she loved it!


Yum
End result!



Morgan and sweet Ashton!

Marshmallow pops were a success!


Saying bye to Aunt Ashley
