Double the Fun

To all my avid readers....ahhhh hummmmm, well, to the few who may still be checking this blog for some glimmer of life, WAIT NO LONGER! Yeah, it's been about 5 weeks since my last post, but this cute video will make up for my blogging negligence!

For those of you who don't know, Garrett's brother Cody and his lovely wife Kara, (I just LOVE that girl,) had their own little pink bundle of joy just one month before Saffren made her debut. Cousin Emmie was born March 24th and Saffren was April 27th ! Now, the only sad part to this "too sweet" story is that our girls are thousands of miles apart since little Emmie and her parents live in Cary, North Carolina. (We keep trying to convince them to move back to the great state of Texas but our efforts have failed, and frankly, after seeing the breathtaking North Carolina landscape, I can't blame them!) Garrett and I were able to make a trip up to N.C. right before school started (like the WEEKEND before school started) to be there for Emmie's baptism. It was a family affair. Garrett's Dad, his wife Becky, and Garrett's Mom all flew up for the special occasion. When seeing each other for the first time Saffren and Emmie acted as though they were the best of friends, it was super cute! Here is a little video Garrett put together to mark their first "Cousin's Reunion!"

Jumping Sassafrass!

We thought we could channel some of Saffren's never-ending energy and her love of bouncing through the help of this "jumper"... the result? She was a little caught off guard at how much she liked it, (as seen by her expression in this picture.) BOING, BOING, BOING...jump away sista! God bless the genius who invented the Sassy Jumper!

MUST sss..sssl...sleep

Sure, it was all fun and games staying up until 1:30 last night, but today, this "night owl" is paying the price. She just couldn't take it anymore and decided to catch some Zzzz's  in the middle of a diaper change! 

Bank of America, here we come!

To break up our "sleep, play, poop, eat, summer schedule," we often go to Daddy's Bank to pay him a visit. Saffren is a big hit among the tellers at the branch. Sometimes we take Daddy lunch and sometimes we just swing by with a Sonic drink.

Three Months Already!

Believe it or not, our little Saffren is already three months old! Do you realize that's a fourth of the way to being a year old?!? AHHHHHhhh!  Yesterday was her "3 Month Birthday" and we celebrated with a little photo shoot. I'm tracking Saffren's growth with the help of this pink teddy bear, given to her by her Great Grandmother "Mammie Pearl." Each month, on the 27th, we'll take her picture and watch how our little one changes! 

Now that she's a whopping three months old, Saffren enjoys sucking on her fingers (NOT her thumb, that would be too easy. She can get her three middle fingers in all at once!) She's laughing each time we sing certain songs, like "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes" and when daddy counts to three, and she has a major crush on the ceiling fan in our bedroom...(she smiles and coos each time she sees it!)

Saffren LOVES playing with her Daddy when he comes home from work. They often "wrestle" on the floor! 
Our little one is becoming more and more VOCAL...she's learned to express herself through happy screaming! (A video will shortly follow...I just need to get it uploaded!)
Now, this is serious ...Daddy and Saffren seeing eye to eye!

Check out those zebra socks! Here's our little lady, pretty in pink!
