New Years Eve!

I have been trying to convince Lainey all day today that New Years Eve is her holiday and that since her middle name is thanks to this WONDERFUL holiday that she is destined to have fabulous New year's Eve's for many years to come.  By the amount of smiles and silliness she has elicited today I am pretty sure she is in agreement that NYE is AWESOME!! I must say that 2010 has been a fabulous year.  But then I really feel like every year I say this.  2008- I was so excited because we had JUST bought our first home, 2009 we were married and JUST found out we were pregnant 2010 we had our beautiful girl and she JUST found her little toes this we*.  We have a lot to be thankful for here in the Babinski household and we have even more to look forward too.  Bring it on 2011- we are excited! 

I have for about as long as I can remember LOVED when babies eat their own toes.  I think it is adorable and have been waiting for this milestone since I found out I was pregnant!  And this week sure enough Lainey reached down, tugged off her sockies (which is a task she has officially mastered) and inserted her big toe into her mouth.  Her face was absolutely priceless and once again this little angel has melted my heart more than I thought possible.  I was actually telling my mother this week that she seems to think that she is the luckiest baby on earth to have feet.  Sometimes she will take a quick nibble and look at me with her big beautiful eyes and I swear she is giving me a look that says "thank you soooooo much for giving me these feet" I don't want to deny that I am sure God had a hand in creating such a beautiful babe but I can't help but lean in close to my moo and whisper "you're welcome"

4 months!

Today my beautiful baby is 4 months old.  It seems like such a big milestone to me.  3 months has been such a fun age and everyday seems to be getting more exciting and more fun!  Of course we will be sharing some Christmas photos and stories  (probably tomorrow) but I just couldn't let today pass without noting that I am so proud of you you cutie Monkey Moo Moo. 

Annnnddd We're Back!

I know I know! Why has no one said anything to me about what a failure I have been at this blog. Well here are my excuses....1. I am in denial that my little one is getting to be such a big girl. 2. I am horrified at how hard it is to return to work- I have no idea how working mothers have time for anything.... which leads to 3. I didn't want to share my stories because I wanted to keep them all to myself. It's bad enough I have to share her ALL day, 40 hours a week to go to work! and finally 4. We haven't gotten more than about an hour or two of sleep at a time since about mid-November....teething is an evil evil time!

Although I do not feel it is getting any easier to go to work in the morning I do feel as though the little moo is just too darn cute not to share. Instead of backtracking the past two months and blabbering on and on and on and on here is a bunch of pictures of our cutie monkey moo moo. I promise to do better!

And a little video to share just because you've stuck with us! -- Sorry its sideways, someday I will learn the proper way to use technology!
