Nikelle Loves bath time!

Nikelle is getting so big! I returned to work and I can see the changes more then ever. I leave her with my mom everyday and am so lucky to have her be able to take the chance to watch her, so I can go to work and know that she is ok! It seems like since I have returned to work, we have been taking more pictures of her. Every night Nikelle starts getting fussy around 7:30 and wants to take her bath. She loves her bath time (now). I can't say the same for getting dressed after, but she is starting to splash. We are so lucky to have a precious little girl that is a great baby. People always say having a baby is life changing and hard at times, but you have a hard time wondering what life would be without them. It is so true. I look forward to coming home each day to see my little girl and my husband. It's wierd to think we did not have her in our life two months ago. So many things have changed, but we are slowly adjusting and can not imagine life without her!

Cozy little towel and on her way to get dressed!

Dressing Nikelle for the weather...What a cute little bear!

Nikelle's first pumpkin

She loves her little chair and keeps trying to talk to them.

Oh, she found the one on the side.

Happy birthday to me!!

Happy birthday to me!!

On Saturday, November 8th I turned another year older. I always look forward to my birthday because it is a busy time for the family. Nik's sister's b-day is on the 6th, and his grandma's is on the 10th so, it is filled with dinners and celebrations.

For my birthday, my mom took Nikelle for her first night away.

It was a nice break. We have been dealing with her screaming non-stop for a few weeks,

and it was a day worth waiting. Although I did not have her, I found myself waking

up every few hours waiting to hear her grunts and movements. (She is a very noisy sleeper)

Nik and I went to dinner and did not need to rush through to attend to her and then relaxed the rest of the night.

Awww it was a great birthday!

P.S. Since I return to work tomorrow, we think we have found out what was wrong

with Nikelle and the crying has quit. It is amazing what happens when you go

to the doctor each week.....grrr! It is nice to have my happy baby back!

Happy Halloween

It was Nikelle's and Aniston's (my niece) first halloween. I can say, I think they really enjoyed it....haha. It was a pretty good day and I have to say that Halloween is more fun when you have a kid. Well, we started by going to visit Nik's grandma, then went and saw my parents and then went to Nik's sister to meet up with his family and take my nephews trick or treating.
Dallas thought that going to one or two houses was enough and then was giving out his own candy. Garett couldn't see why his uncles wanted to go back out to get more candy. Then finally he saw that he would get more candy. When you see his costume you will say it fits him after hearing that.
At least next year, Nikelle will be walking and she will be able to get her own candy (and give most of it to her dad).
