My Memories Review and Giveaway

I was contacted by My Memories about hosting a review and a giveaway of there amazing digital scrapbooking software! I was thrilled once I visited there website. Since I had Savannah I have done zero scrapbooking and have been wanting to start, now I have found the way I want to scrapbook!! 

I soon realized that this was more than just scrapbookng software, you can do anything from designing your own scrapbook, creating your own photo album (large or small), creating your own slideshows, and much much more!! I could spend hours upon hours just finding out more things that I can do with the My Memories Suite! 

As you can see I quickly started playing around with what I could do. I started a small scrapbook of Savannah's 6th month! Lets just say I am in LOVE! As all of you Mother's know that with a child there will be interruptions and a very limited amount of time to scrapbook! Good news, with My Memories you can just click "Save" and you are good to go until you have another spare moment, no mess to clean up! That is what I love about My Memories, among many other things! Once you have completed your project you can have it ordered online and it will be shipped directly to you!

Today you could be the lucky reader to win your own My Memories Suite!

Sitting all by herself

So my little girl is sitting on her own! I would say that she is doing pretty good unassisted! I still have the boppy  behind her if I am not close by, but she is pretty much a sitter now! 

Today I was taking some pictures of her, and when I came across this one I totally cracked up! It looks like she is so over these pictures! Like Mom I am only being good so I can get this over with!! :)

And this one is just priceless! She recently discovered her tongue, and she thinks it is just the coolest!

My precious little angel! You are my everything!

Savannah's 1st Wedding

A week ago on August 27th, hubby's brother got married. Our little Savannah Baby looked so adorable I just had to share some pictures!

She did not nap well that day so I was worried that she would be a mess, but she was a little Angel the whole time! She even smiled for the photographer!

Savannah Is 6 Months Old-August 18, 2011

Savannah Lane is 6 Months Old

It is so hard to believe that you are halfway to your 1st Birthday! Your Daddy and I have treasured every moment that we have had with you. This was the shortest 6 month of our lives! You have made a ton of changes in the last month alone!

-You are almost sitting on your own.

-You are not rolling a lot, but you know how.

-You have your good and bad nights of sleep, about 75% of the time you sleep through the night. Usually about 12 hours. 7pm-7am.

-You love to eat your big girl food! We only feed you once around 5pm. You usually eat a veggie and some fruit mixed with your oatmeal cereal. You have had peas, green beans, sweet potatoes, squash with corn, carrots, bananas, pears, prunes, peaches, and apples. You hate carrots, and your favorite is sweet potatoes! 

-It took your bowels about 3 weeks to adjust to these new eating habits, prunes always helped out!

-You still breastfeed, and it is going really well. You breastfeed around 5-7 times a day, on demand. Although Momma cannot wait until this stage is over! Lets just say it does not help with weight loss, it just makes Momma extremely hungry all the time!

-Momma is haunted by your upcoming well check, every time I think about your shots I start to feel nauseated. Daddy must go along. You are my heart sweet girl, every time you hurt, I hurt more!

-You have found your toes/feet. You love to kick them up in the air and play with them!

-You love to play toys!

-Momma feels like you get bored so we try to find lots of new things for you to do, like going on walks, watching Baby Ein.steins in the morning, folding laundry with Momma, visiting g-ma, trying to find new toys for you around the house like measuring spoons that you love!

-You love to be around new exciting things as long as Momma is right there with you, or Daddy! You have often times cried until Momma comes to get you! I know now to stay right there with you sweet girl! It sure does break my heart when I see you crying! You never cry when you are with your Momma and Daddy, only when you are ready to eat your last meal at bedtime, sometimes you just cannot wait patiently while we get you into your Jammie's after bath time. You want to eat and sleep immediately!

-We never would even think to let you Cry It Out! We have been blessed to never even need to think about that, you are a very good baby.

-You went swimming in a heated pool for the 1st time, and you loved it!

-You laughed and laughed at my parents little poodle when we were dog sitting, he just cracked you up when he would play with his toys (this in now way means we are getting a dog!) 

-You still do really well in your car seat, if you are ready for a nap, you usually sleep really good in your seat if we are driving/shopping.

-You get a bath every night before bedtime, and you love it!

-On the nights that Momma is working, Daddy usually takes care of you and puts you to bed

-If you wake up before Daddy leaves he will get you and change your diaper while Momma makes her coffee. Momma LOVES this! I adore listening to Daddy talk to you while he changes you, then I hear you talking back and squealing with joy. My heart instantly feels so thankful for you and your Daddy. You are Daddy's little girl, and Mommas little Angel!

-Your 1st Christmas is quickly approaching. Momma is VERY excited to shop for you, and to get out your pink tree!
