4 Months

4 MONTHS OLD!!! Oh my goodness where did the time go? Especially with my starting back at work, this month went by WAY to fast. It definitely showed me to really take in all the time I get with Bentley. The best thing in my life right now is being a mom to this sweet little boy who loves us unconditionally. He's the light in our lives right now. The times when I feel guilty for going back to work and not spending all day with him, he gives me his big smile when he sees me and I know that he knows me. That he loves me and although he missed me, he wasn't sad. I love this little angel with all my heart and I thank my Heavenly Father everyday for the opportunity that I have to help raise him.

Baby Food

Well, we've done it. We've started baby food. It's so funny how I get so nervous starting things like this. I always think there is one right way to do everything and I get all flustered. But he's been enjoying learning. Here are the first time he tried it....and didn't get it....haha

SNOW DAY!!!

I could not believe that I ALMOST went this whole winter without one stinkin picture of Bentley in his snowsuit actually outside with snow....so here it is!!! Yay!!!

Jayson's Birthday Party

Just wanted to share some cute pics from Jayson's birthday party. BEFORE Bentley was born, Jayson didn't really like birthdays. He always thought he was old and that he would be so old when he finally became a daddy. haha I think I actually promised him that we would have a baby before he turned 25....and we did. :o) Well, HAPPY 25 SWEETY!!!

Bentley with Abuela Lily

Bentley's Room

So we moved Bentley's room around a little. Our ghetto apartment floor is SO squeaky, especially in Bentley's room, so we moved his crib to another wall where the floor in front of the crib was less squeaky. Anyhoo, I really like this set up and just wanted to show it off a little. I know it's REALLY plain but I can only do so much without painting the walls :o) I also wanted to show off the rest of the walls in the room and ask for IDEAS of something cute I could do on them. I LOVE recommendations. I hope the pictures and layout isn't too confusing.

Thanks!

This is the quilt that I hand-stitched. It was something fun to do and something that I myself actually made for Bentley. haha

How does everyone like the giant dog in the picture? Yup....that was a Jayson decision haha

So this is the rest of the wall on the left side.


This is the rest of the wall on the right side. (exciting I know)

This is the HUGE bare wall that I don't know what to do with. I get stuck when I have so much space to work with...it's annoying....

This is, as you can tell, the space above the bookcase :o)

And I do have some space above the closet but I doubt I'll use it for anything

Space on the left side of window

And.....space on the right side

Picture Collage

I've always wanted to do a little picture collage but always thought it would be too hard. Well, my cousin Shelby showed me that it WASN'T!! THANKS SHELBY!! She gave me the easy tip on how to measure out where the frames have to go. After that......viola!! I actually finished a project!! yay!! Well here is what the collage looks like, its in Bentley's room above his crib....but I love it so much that I KNOW I'm going to end up doing another on in our front room .Which is fine becuase it needs more decor :o) Anyhoo, I also want to thank my amazing friend Heidi who has pretty much taken all of Bentley's pictures so far. haha Thanks so much Heidi!!

Peek-a-boo!!

Bentley has this new trick that he enjoys doing. He probably gets this from me, but I'm ALWAYS pulling the blankets over my face when I nap. So I put Bentley in his bouncer and he falls asleep and I find this......haha I love it
