Photo of the Day: LOVE

Yesterday when I got home from work & the gym, my over-tired baby was grouchy. Within minutes she fell asleep in my arms. How could these arms possibly be more comfortable than her bed? I can’t imagine … but I so love it.

Looking back at Baby K’s monthly photos, I think she may have had a growth spurt in the last few weeks. Here’s our monthly photo together. I think this was shot #23 … I look goofy, but at least she’s smiling!

7-15_5month_outside — Baby K is five months old today. As usual, this month has flown by.

I’ve had quite the day at work today. Luckily I have this photo from yesterday evening to make me smile. She’s definitely got the “Rhodes eyebrow!”

Impromptu Independence Day Photo Shoot

I was so excited that my good friend and blogger Mandy, and her husband David, joined us for our family Fourth of July celebration this year! On a whim, what turned out to be a photo of Baby K and me, turned into a mini family photo shoot. Most of these were taken by Mandy – thanks, friend!

7-8_IMG_0205 — We’re all smiling at the same time – nice work, Mandy!

Photo(s) of the Day: Sunday Mornings

On July 1, 2014July 1, 2014 By LindyIn baby, photography

Sunday mornings with Baby K are the best. She has been sleeping until about 9 a.m., so on Sundays I get to wake her up for a change – to get ready for church. I love opening her curtains, singing to her, and watching her stretch, squeak, and squirm, as if to say, “I’m not ready to wake up yet, Mom!” Once her eyes open she’s full of smiles. This weekend my sister and nephew got to witness this highlight of my week.

And by the way, Baby K is featured on my friend Mandy’s blog today – check it out!

Photo(s) of the Day: Biggest Little Royals Fan Ever

On June 30, 2014June 30, 2014 By LindyIn baby, photography

This weekend we attended Baby K’s third Royals game! You may think I’m a huge baseball fan, but I admit that isn’t exactly true. I do enjoy baseball, but usually one Royals game a year is enough for me. We just happened to have the opportunity to go to three games this season – and we sure picked a great one for it! Baby K is obviously good luck – they won all three games we attended. And she’s on her way to being an even bigger fan, because her Uncle Matt spoiled her with some cute girly Royals onesies!

Photo(s) of the Day: BFFs

This weekend we were thrilled to have good friends from Colorado stay with us. The best part … they have a son (whom I’ve nicknamed Lil’ W) just two days older than Baby K! Is it destiny? We’ll see in about three decades – the daddies have agreed they can start dating when they’re 30. I guess they haven’t noticed Lil’ W is already making a move on Baby K!

Photo of the Day: Too Petite

On June 18, 2014June 18, 2014 By LindyIn baby, photography

We tried Baby K in her door jumper last night since she’s starting to sit up and making lots of strong kicking motions. She’s still too short to jump – but as apprehensive as she looks in the photo, she loved just sitting and swinging in it!
