Wow. It's been way to long since I've made a post. Josh is in Nebraska turkey hunting with my dad and my mom has been here, so with that and work we've been extremely busy. However, Marysa is doing really well. She is loving spending time with her Grandmommy Strickland. Everyday I notice different things Marysa has learned or discovered. When we change her clothes she just cackles and giggles. We get so tickled at her. She is not too keen on the pacifier. She loves to suck her fingers, and anything else she can get in her mouth. She particularly likes bibs and burp clothes. We've given her teething toys, but she hasn't quite got the hang of those just yet. Well that's all for now. I've got to get better at posting blogs.
These are the pictures we had made on the day that the bird pooped on Josh. I think they turned out great given the circumstances. Don't you think? Marysa did really well. She was a little fussy at first and I didn't think we would get very many pictures, but then she fell asleep and the photographer did great at taking pictures of her sleeping (there are many more and some very cute ones of her feet). When Marysa woke up she was very happy and ready to smile, as you can see in the later pictures. All in all the day turned out great!
This actually happened yesterday, but picture this. Josh, Marysa, and me are all ready for pictures. We load the car and head to town. We were having our picture made in front of the Houston Library downtown (the one with all the beautiful Magnolia trees in front). We arrive and Josh begins to get our stuff out of the car. I go ahead and take Marysa up to the photographer. Josh follows behind us with the things from the car. Next thing I know Josh stops dead in his tracks. I look back and he says "I think a bird just pooped all over me". I looked at him and said "yes it did" (then I burst out laughing). A bird pooped all over his head, face, and most importantly his clothes. Thank goodness we had an extra shirt! I was SURE we would have to change the baby due to spit up or poop, but she did great. It was Josh we had to worry about! Sorry that I do not have a picture to post for this blog, but we were all laughing so hard no one thought to snap a picture!
We took Marysa outside today and put her in her bumbo seat. She is doing really good sitting up in the bumbo seat and holding her head up. We are really proud of her. She really enjoyed being outside. The first picture of her is in her bumbo seat. The second picture I just had to post because she looks just like her daddy in it. AND...the third picture we just had to take and post-it's Laura Ingles on her horse! ha ha Wow two post in one day...I'm getting good at this.
