I was tagged to do this by someone else awhile back, but I didn't. I figured this time, why not? This picture was taken in Mesa, AZ. We were there for my sister, Jessica's wedding and we went out to eat, I believe the night before the wedding. I'm not sure. Anways, Caroline was about 6 weeks old then. I like this picture alot. Justin's eye's always look good in that shirt, you can't tell here cause of red eye. Plus, look how tiny Caroline is!
I'm not gonna tag anyone. If you want to do it, great. If not, that's ok too. :)

Update

I know it's been forever since I've posted anything. I feel like this month just took all my energy out of me. I couldn't really tell you why. I just want to nap all time and I've had like a 2 week headache....I guess mommy life and everything else is just catching up with me.... Anyways, things are going good with us. Caroline is growing like crazy with many new discoveries every day. She has become quite the climber. She kicks and fights when it's time to go into her carseat, but if she can crawl into it herself, she's happy.She had her first visit to the library. She was more interested in eating the books than anything, but we still had fun.This picture shows off two of her new tricks. She likes to clap and will copy anyone who does it. She's also started this whistle. She makes this face and breaths in and makes a whistle. She didn't get that from mommy, she can't whistle to save her life...

She attempts to climb up the chair and ends up sliding down until she laying under it.When she is able to sit up, she ends up underneath the chair. It can take her considerable time to get out, but she has fun doing it.She climbs everything. This particular day I had my sewing out and she was getting into some stuff on the chair. We went to visit a friend of mine who, as you can see, loves dogs. These are the 2 biggest of the 3 she has now. The left one, Caden, is a ridgeback, black lab mix. The right one, Tara, is a great dane. They are the sweetest, most well behaved dogs. Caroline loved them. She spent some time using Caden as a jungle gym and Caden just sat quietly while she was attacked.Out in Papa's yard with her very good looking daddy. She plays with Papa's dogs too. She gets very excited when she gets doggy kisses.Justin is doing well with his job at the Carthage Police Department. He may even be done with his training early. He says it's because there are a lot of changes in the process with people moving around, so he could end up on any shift depending on where everyone ends up. I say it's because he's so unbelievably talented that they don't need to train him that long. :) He got into a foot pursuit the other day and got to draw his gun. That was an exciting day for him. I feel like he made a good choice when he went with Carthage. I feel good about the people he works with, especially his superior officers. I'm glad he likes it. Work for me is going ok. I like my job, but every day gets harder to leave Caroline. I just know I need to be home with her more. I am in the process of talks with my supervisors to change my shedule in the near future and anytime I really start thinking about it, I get excited butterflies in my stomach. Not that I think it will be easy. I just have so much to do on top of work, that I can't wait til I can have more time during the day for Caroline, my house work, and my callings. The past 8 months have just solidified my desire to be a stay at home mom. That's about it for us the past few weeks. Hope all is well with our family and friends.

HELP! Which one is your favorite?

My sister convinced me to enter Caroline into Live's beautiful baby contest. Like Melissa, I have collected pictures over the past few weeks and can't decide. These are some of the favorites so far. 12345 6
