8-6-09 : Bailey & Daddy playing horsey. We aren't quite sure where she learned that you hold the reins (daddy's shirt) or that you kick with your heels to make your horsey go faster but Tony assured me that these are things our little tike knows... maybe when she's big enough we will try horseback riding lessons.
8-6-09 : Bailey posing for a quick picture while "encouraging" her horsey down the hallway.
8-7-09 : Bailey all dressed up with her cowboy hat from the library & Mommy's chaco's.
8-8-09 : Bailey has been very vocal lately about which clothes she wants to wear and for several days had really wanted to wear her Easter dress. On Saturday morning we agreed since Tony & I were taking her to Grandma & Grandaddy's for the day. Before we left the house she put on all of her beaded necklaces as well as socks & her tennis shoes (I guess she wanted to be prepared to go to the park). Even though she was all gussied up, Bailey refused to let either Tony or I or Grandaddy take her picture but this picture was the best view of her outfit.
8-8-09 : For father's day, Bailey & I got Tony tickets to the George Strait concert in Houston at Reliant Stadium. We went down to Houston a little early and had dinner at the Taste of Texas resturant (its a fabulous steak house), then checked into the hotel and then headed to the stadium. Julianne Huff, Blake Shelton and Sugarland preformed before George Strait took the stage at 9pm. Even though we missed seeing Julianne Huff because dinner ran late, we thoroughly enjoyed the other acts and George Strait was phenomenal! It was crystal clear that he loves what he does and truly appreciates that people enjoy listening to his music.
8-9-09 : Before we headed back to College Station to pick up Bailey, Tony & I dropped in on a friend of mine from high school who was in town for her sister's baby shower. This was the first time that Tony & I got to meet her little boy, Evan, and we had a great time playing with him and catching up with his Mommy.
8-9-09 : Katy, Evan (ready for a nap) and me. It was a bummer that Bailey couldn't be there to meet Evan too but that will just have to wait until next time!
8-9-09 : Bailey officially slept in her big girl bed (her crib minus the front railing) for the first time today at nap time. She was really excited about it and happily climbed in at nap time. Sometime during her nap she managed to roll onto the floor without waking up, so after naptime Tony installed the partial side railings to help keep her from falling out again. So far its worked!
Things have been kind of crazy around our house so please bear with us if you've phoned and we haven't returned your call or emailed and we haven't emailed you back. Tony is busily preparing for a confined space class he is teaching at the fire department and I've picked up a bunch of work out at the challenge course along with the normal assortment of doctor's appointments. On Bailey's side she is growing like crazy and amazes us daily with the vocabulary she picks up. She loves the park and is looking forward to starting gymnastics classes in two weeks. Hopefully once we get into September things will slow down but realistically we know that that probably won't happen. Good thing is we can't get bored with a schedule like this!
