Sleepy Head

After a long hard morning of posing for the camera (Thanks again Ellen!) this is what happens to a 7 month old when you take him on a walk...





At least he was happy as a clam! LOL!

A new endeavor...

A lot of you know that photography has been a passion of mine for some time now. Well since I was young it was. Over the past few years I've had the pleasure of shooting a few weddings and I've got one this fall that I'm doing. With that in mind I decided to go outside of my comfort zone and register myself for a booth at our town's local celebration. It has been completely nerve wracking! But with the encouragement of my family & friends I'm feeling better about it each day. The booth is all set. The photos will be here in the next 2 days. The website is almost done. Just a few final touches and I'll be all set to go. I just need to hear from my husband a few hundred more times "What've ya got to lose?" and then I'll be really ready. Up for it honey???

I'll make sure to post some pictures of the booth & such next week.

Movin & Shakin Bacon!

Well lets see here... Since I last posted we spent the weekend up north for the 4th of July (Thanks again Lisa & Ron!!), Noah turned 7 months, has decided to roll to where ever he needs to get too, and is now sitting! Well he's sitting by himself, but not for long periods of time. We're getting there! :)

It's been a fun few weeks! And I'm super excited because in exactly 10 days my sister will be home!!! YAHOOIE!!! We haven't seen Jaime & Charlie since we were down in H-Town at the end of February. So it'll be so nice to see them when they are here.

I added a July album to the slideshow so you can all enjoy!

See ya on the flip side!

2 Years...

2 weeks ago Shawn & I had our 2nd wedding anniversary. This year we celebrated it in Las Vegas! It's so hard to believe that it has been 2 years already. Man does time fly by! We had a very nice time in Las Vegas. It was very hot though. I'll take FL heat over Vegas heat anyday! I do not do well in the "dry" heat. Shawn of course is fine no matter if it's humid or dry. I swear we live in the wrong state. My hubby needs to be in the sun all the time! Anyways.... We relaxed, walked the strip and went into the hotels & casinos, and laid by the pool (or rather sat in the pool to keep cool). We also went to see the Cirque Du Soleil show The Beatles Love at the Mirage resort. It was FABULOUS! Hands down my favorite Cirque show to date! We also ate at Mesa Grill in Ceasars that night before the show. That was perfection! I'm so glad I have the cookbook from there so I can make what we had again. Man it was so good! All in all it was a good trip and it was just long enough of a getaway for us without Noah. By the time the plane landed back home we were ready to see our Bubs! Well Shawn would say I was ready 2 days before that, but I'll plead the 5th on that. ;)

I loaded up our pictures from Vegas into an album so you can view it by clicking on the Our Pictures link and then selecting the Vegas Album!

And in honor of our wedding anniversary I feel the need to post a picture from that most glorious of days!



It was a day I will never forget!

6 1/2 Months!

I'm a bit late in posting this, but Noah is now 6 1/2 months old! He is such a big boy! We are enjoying every minute with him. He's our little bubs, MNB (Mr. No Butt), Lil' Peanut, and Sack of Potatoes... Or as Auntie Jaime just called him this morning... He's a little smushie! :D

Here are the stats from his 6 month well baby visit:
Height: 28 1/2 inches (97%)
Weight: 16 lbs 10 oz (50%)

He did very well with the shots this time. He cried, but as soon as they were done I picked him up and Shawn & I made him giggle. So all was well!

I uploaded his 6 month pictures into the June gallery. Take a peek!

This weekend we are taking him swimming for the first time! He loves his bath so we'll see how he does in slightly cooler water... LOL!

VEGAS BABY!!

Look out Las Vegas! The Turner's are coming! LOL!

Shawn & I head out to Vegas tomorrow for the weekend to celebrate our 2nd anniversary. We are leaving Noah with Grand-mama & Grand-papa (I can't believe I just wrote that Mom... :P). I'm freaking out a little about leaving Noah. Not because of whom I'm leaving him with, but because I've never been without him in the next room overnight. I know I'll be fine once we get on that plane though. At least I'll have Shawn's shoulder to cry on... But we are VERY excited to have a few days off from work! And only have plans on our anniversary and that's it! Otherwise we are just going to get up in the morning and figure out what we want to do that day. So who knows!

Remember... What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas! :D

Hopefully lady luck will be on our side!

Cheers!

Yummy yummy in my tummy!

That's what Noah is saying now! He's one lucky little boy to be getting cereal at such a young age! LOL! We started giving Noah rice cereal this week. And I think he likes it! I'll let the pictures speak for themselves...
