Video catch up

As I get ready to go through all the numerous pictures taken throughout Dec (that I will eventually post on Flickr and some on here) I realized that I hadn't posted any videos of Princess Sasha in a long while. So, I'll start with videos and in the coming days will be some picture catch up hopefully.

Sashie's 6 month stats and ear infection

I forgot to update on her 6 month appt a few weeks back and to let everyone know about her first ear infection...

She had her 6 month appt and passed with flying colors.

Weight: 14lbs, 7oz - 50th percentile
Length: 26in - 75th percentile

She did really well with her shots thanks to her Elmo teething blanket :)

This all happened on Friday Dec 5. That day and into the weekend we did Tylenol every 4 hrs like always after shots but her low fever ended up spiking to 103 and continued coming and going into Monday. She also was definitely not our happy Sasha of norm. After talking to the nurse Monday morning we took her to the dr Monday and found out she had quickly developed a double ear infection. After just a few does of "bubble gum" meds she started feeling better.

She's just now finishing up the meds and is getting back to her old self... sort of. Now there's also a growth spurt hitting but that's another story ;)

Breakfast with Santa and squash

This past weekend Sasha had her first Breakfast with Santa. It went very well! Granted she only had formula while Mama and Daddy had the real food but it was good :) She wasn't quite sure what to make of the big guys as you'll see from the pics but there was no screaming so we took it to be a success. These pics were much better than the mall ones that were taken earlier (those were VERY washed out) so we're going with these.

I'm a little unsure about this guy people

A little weary about Santa

I also made Sashie some homemade, fresh organic squash this weekend. She had her first taste on Monday and LOVED it! I definitely think it's her favorite veggie so far. She's doing so well with it that I think we're going to move on to carrots this weekend.

Oh and here's her 6 month pic from a few weeks back... we always do the same picture in her crib at the start of each month

Pretty girl is 6 months old!

There's many more pics on the flickr site if your interested so go there if you have time :)

Hugs!

Last of Thanksgiving

Here's the last few things from Thanksgiving that were just to cute not to post...

As we were back in the car for the 8-9 hr trek back to TN...
Are we seriously in the car again?

Oh well, I got my feet to play with

Miss Sashie did do very well for the trip being in the light of day this time... granted, her Elmo blankie helped...
oooh, fun with Elmo

Gnaw, gnaw, gnaw

Izzy did very well up in the front too...

Thanksgiving vacation catchup

Well it's been a while since we went to Indiana for Thanksgiving so I'll try to play a little catchup... warning this is going to be a LONG post...

Just before we left for our trip (weekend before Thanksgiving) Sasha got to have her first try at a sippy cup... it went really well and she LOVED it! Got a little frustrated a few times but over all did great with it.

May I help you?

Gummy smile

I can drink from this thing

The trip up to Indiana when really well, we drove through the night Sunday night.

Here we our on the one stop where she woke up to eat:
In the car on the way "home"

Monday was spent and Yaya and Pop's where we had our first Thanksgiving dinner. Miss Sashie got a new toy, always fun! And, she of course had to try to taste it.
Reaching so far...

Yaya got me a new toy!  It tastes so good!

After dinner, Sashie and Daddy were all tuckered out...
An early Thanksgiving dinner knocked them out

On Tuesday, we went on to Lafayette and met up some friends and had a yummy lunch. Sasha didn't really care about that so much as dancing with Uncle Marcus... here's them doing the "sprinkler":
Sprinkler!

Next was a bit of Purdue shopping and then on to Uncle Nick and Aunt Mandy's. Wednesday morning Uncle Nick introduced Sasha to her first bluetooth:
Sasha's first bluetooth...

After leaving Lafayette we headed to Indy for the rest of Wed and Thursday and during this part of the trip Sashie met LOTS of new people, and a few animals...

At Uncle Andy and Aunt Laurren's Thursday morning Honey and Sashie got very well acquainted...
Interesting

Are you getting this Mama?

Yep, but it was cute while it lasted

As we got ready to head over for the big Thanksgiving dinner for Josh's family Sasha got dressed up... and of course there were pictures!

Let me see

Pouty

Hey there cute stuff

At the big dinner Sasha met slightly older cousin Kayleb (by 6 months) for the first time... very entertaining to say the least!

As Kayleb and his older brother start playing around the room:
Oh no you didn't

I'm not not sure about this whole boy, yell thing

No, really, what is this about?

Right before we headed back to Mom's for the night...
God blesses us every day!

There's a few more from the ride back to TN that are pretty good but I still need to get those uploaded. But overall it was a great trip, tiring, but good. Sasha did really well for it being so jam packed.
