Gee, Baby, Ain't I Good To You?


Im an inexperienced mom i know but i felt terrible today at the mall when i had to wrap my baby up like this...


because underneath she looked like this.

I just thought i would check if she needed a diaper change there was a pea green poo explosion everywhere all over her clothes...everywhere. I felt so bad, we walked around the mall like this until we could find some new clothes.


Thankfully not too many people noticed.

Swimming Song

Happy 4th of July! Check out this girl swim. Scout is really upset she has to miss the girls trip to Mexico next weekend now that she has a killer summer beach bod. That unsightly umbilical cord was really getting in the way of her rockin' a bikini this summer.

Wes and Peter got really ambitious and made fried chicken and hot wings, I can't think of anything more patriotic.


Just my milk drunk baby.

Sleep Late, My Lady Friend

i thought people were kidding when they said all babies do is sleep and eat and surprisingly scout is sticking to the mold (for now anyway).

scout getting her nails cut by one of my seasoned sisters, i thought i might cut off her fingers. summer you did a fine job.

everyone loves a baby. it's nice having so many people around to take care of my baby. i'm pretty sure will likes her the most, finally someone smaller than him.

here is one of my favorite pictures, showing off the fact that scout is already papa pete's little girl.

Scout-a-rama

After 15 hours off laboring our stubborn girl decided she was too tired to finish what she started so the doctors had to take her c-section. Just like her mom she had the cord wrapped around her neck. She hung in there like a champ and we ended up with a beautiful baby.
8 lbs 6 oz and 22 inches long, I was shocked. We are still trying to figure out where all of her features come from. She has her dads furrowed brow and her moms chin, but beyond that we can't decide.
Grandma Dee was first to meet Scout this morning and Scout was so wide awake and happy. The girl keeps her eyes open the whole time she is awake, such a mature baby.

Last weekend we headed up to Thatcher for Matthews graduation. I can't believe that he is 18 years old and graduated. Matthew is the greatest kid always so sweet and kind.
Matthew we love you!

-Garrett just 2 more years.

Nanny I Love You!

I have so many memories of Nanny. Camping was something we did a lot. Family reunions or just a weekend in the mountains nearby Nanny was always so much fun to go camping with. She taught us tons of card games and how to play chicken foot. I used to love going to her house and playing with her wooden Noahs ark with tiny metal animals. Every time I was at Nannys house she always kept me full of those little lemon creme filled cookies. She is an amazing woman so strong and hard working. I loved the story of her and grandpa building houses in both Sadona and Colorado, I hope to be like her someday. My Nanny is an amazing woman she taught me so many things in life.
We Love You.

-Love Peter, Lacy and Scout

Recently

Every time I ride the light rail I always want to stop at Knock Kneed Lobster, a Ford family favorite, and before you ask its much better than Pete's Fish and Chips.
On our way to the Suns game we stopped and walked over to get some dinner. It was a bit of a walk and I almost didn't make it. I hope its due to the 30 extra lbs im carrying around and not a sign that my heart is going to explode.
We went to two games last week and we won tons of prizes. Peter won a Raja Bell signed jersey and I got a signed Amare Stoudemire signed ball. Then the players were throwing t-shirts into the stands and Peter and I both caught one. Fan appreciation night did the Dangerford's well.
We finally got a chance to meet Mr. Orange.
I'm pretty sure I was grossing out all of surrounding patrons with my relaxing positions.
Los Rayas De La Torta caught Peter's eye during an episode of Diners Drive- In's and Dives. I got a chicken avocado torta, it was delicious!
Peter and Wes tackled the monster of a torta which contained chicken, ham, chirizo, hot links and a bunch of other stuff. I was surprised but they finished it.
I hid Peter's Easter basket so well that it took him close to 30 minutes to find it.
Here's the kids cracked out on candy and soda.

Finally Peter found the basket. However after this weekend he has decide no more candy! More for me right?
