Whistle While You Work

Dallie Jo is forsure a Daddy's girl!

We are always whistling at her and telling her how cute she is, so instead of learning to talk she's learning to whistle. If you really listen, you can hear soft little whistles....

and her smiles just keep getting BIGGER!

ALSO yesterday I was asking Dallie Jo to say MAMMAMAMAMA, but in stead she said DADADADADA..... Yep, For sure a DADDY'S GIRL!

State Basketball 2011

This last weekend we traveled down to Richfield to support my little sister and her basketball team. I think they ended up taking seventh or something.... They should have done better but that's all in the past!

While down there we stayed with Cody's little brother and his family and had a great time.

We took Miss Dallie Jo swimming for the first time and we were SHOCKED that she didn't like the water.... she just cried and cried. But of course even though she was crying we had to take some photos because it was just so cute!

Look at those legs! It took two of us to get her into the tight little swimming suit

Daddy and Dallie Jo

I'm not sure dad!

Not liking this!

I really don't like this, get me out!

Cute even when she bawls!

I'm not sure if she didn't like the sound, the smell, the water temp or the tightness of her swimming suit.

We sure loved that little suit! It showed off her curves, OH SO WELL!

Hopefully she'll like it better, because I plan on swimming alot on our cruise that Cody's family gave us for Christmas!

Valentines 2011

Better Late than never....

Lover's Day 2011

So I'm kinda a hopeless Romantic, I LOVE when Cody sends me flowers. And he always sends the best!

This year, I very surprised. I didn't think he was going to get anything because he had been so busy with work but he always surprises me. Not only did he send me a beautiful bouquet but he sent Miss Dallie Jo one too.

FUNNY Story: when the lady came to deliver the flowers she brought up Dallie Jo's and left. I was like well I guess I'm not his Valentine.... Then the lady came back and brought mine.

For Cody's gift I made him a nice Steak diner, a cheese cake, homemade oreos, chocolate covered strawberries and Dallie Jo gave him some kiss balloons.

 

All the lilies are opening and they smell so good!

Dallie Jo's flowers and bear

And the reason this post is late is because I have been busy making this little shirts for my Mother in law's hairstylist. They turned out pretty cute but took forever because I haven't had very much time to finish them.

I always get worried when I make them for others to buy, because I never know what they like and if they'll like them. 

I've also been busy doing some embroidering on some bags for my sister's basketball team. They headed off to state yesterday and the mothers always give them a Good Luck Gift.

AND of course Dallie Jo always keeps me busy!

I hope everyone had a great Valentines and remembered how much and what made you fall in love with that special someone. Have a great weekend!

Birthday Boy!

That's right! Its my Cod-Man's birthday!

Things we love about Cody:

- Best Daddy in the WORLD!
- He is the hardest worker I know, he goes nuts if he doesn't have anything to do. And unlike alot of other people, he does the job the way its suppose to be done.
- Cody pretends to be Mr. Hard Hearted but really he's a softy, you should see how he is wrapped around our little girl's finger.
- He laughs at my jokes, even though they are usually lame.
- He accepts everyone the way they are. He's not one to judge a 'book by its cover'.
- I love how excited he gets when he gets to go Hunting.... Its cute!
- Loves me for me, even when I'm in Crazy Mamma Mode.

- Did I mention He's the BEST DADDY IN THE WORLD?! Well he is!

Happy Birthday Daddy, We LOVE You!

Dallie Jo and Jaxie

On Valentines day Dallie Jo got to meet Jaxie for the first time.

Kisses... 

Dallie Jo was so gentle, Its like she knew she had to be careful! Usually she wants to grab, pull, taste and eat other kids but she was very nice and calm with Baby Jaxie. I can't believe how big Dallie is compared to Jaxie. Dallie Jo was 8.8 pounds when she was born and Jaxie was 7.6, but she's very petite! All her fitures are very petite and small, every thing but her feet! ha ha, I thought Dallie Jo's were big when she was born but Jaxie's look as big as Dallie Jo's are now.... Probably not but they look about as big!

Dallie Jo looks like a mini giant next to Jax!

Family time

Conversation between Cody and I.

Cody: Dallie Jo, You're so DAMN Cute!
Kandice: I think she just might be the cutest baby I've ever seen!
Cody: Well yeah, she's my baby.
Kandice: Yeah right, I baked her...
Cody: Well, I gave you the Recipe!

Love that MAN of Mine!
And Dallie Jo is going to grow up saying her name is Damn Cute Dallie Jo... Cuz she gets told that all the time.

After 15 hours of being at the hopsital, an epidural, lots of patience and one c section later....

Little Jaxie Dawn Marx made her appearance Thursday, 02/10/11; 9:02 pm; 7.6 pounds; 19.5 inches; and a little bit of long RED HAIR!

She is such a little blessing. She sure took her own little time, but finally she's here. Wayne is so proud, he just kept saying "Hi Sister, You're perfect, just perfectly beautiful!"

About 8:30pm they called me and asked me if I'd like to watch the csection, I wasn't so sure at first but I'm SUPER glad I did now. Its so awesome to see that baby take her first breath and watch trained professionals do their jobs. Totally makes me want to go back to school to become a nurse.

Congrats to Wayne and Ashley, She's pretty cute! (but I do know one other baby that is cuter! ha ha) And she's very strong, she was picking her little head up and looking around. She could find where the person who was talking was and didn't cry at all! Even with the shots, the pounding on her back to get the fluid out and all the passing around; just a few little cherps. And she's a good little eater all ready, she knew exactly what she wanted and knew how to get it, I know that has to be a HUGE relief for Ashley.

Welcome Little Jaxie Dawn,

Dallie Jo can't wait to play with you!

I also think Dr. Williams and the nurses at UBMC deserve a shout out, You're so good and it comforting to know you do such a good job at your... Job! THANKS!

Pictures to follow, of course my camera died as soon as I got there, but Wayne has taken enough pictures and video to last us all!

Trick Rider!

Dallie Jo is quite the little horse rider, she can ride the horse and suck on his ears at the same time.

That's talent right there!

Come on Buttercup/Trigger/Silver/Custis.

He's a horse of many names.

Whoa!

This has become Dallie Jo and Daddy's nightly routine. He comes home, cleans up, and she rides her horse.

She's pretty persistant... She knows when its time for him to get home and when its time to ride that horsey.

Isn't she the Cutest Cowgirl you've ever seen...

even if she's in her PJs!

Today was Dallie Jo's 6 month baby wellness check up.

She's 17 pounds and 26 inches long; which makes her 70% in her weight and 50% in her height.

She was so good, she just smiled and talked to the doc/nurses and when she received her shots she kinda whimpered a little but then she was just fine.

Such a great baby!

How did she go from this:

(2 weeks old)

to this, so FAST!?

(6 months old)

Superbowl XLV Good/Bads:

-Christina Aguilera totally messed up the National Anthem.
-Such good food, and great friends.
-Black Eye Peas wasn't too great at Half time.
-Good Food!
-The Commercials were not nearly as funny as usual.
-Loved watching the kids play. Little boys have so much Energy!
-Ate tooo much food, but enjoyed every minute!
- Packers win!

I'm usually not into football but I do enjoy meeting with good friends, eating too much and having a good time during the Superbowl.

Thanks Brenton and Andrea!

We really enjoyed ourselves!

We're Expecting AGAIN!! I know, I know, its crazy isn't it? I can't believe it myself.

I wasnt going to put it on here yet, but we decided to make it official!

I mean who would've guessed we're Expecting AGAIN!

Yup its official...

We are Expecting Freezing Temps AGAIN tomorrow!

Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!

Someone posted this and I just had to do the same! Repost if you have any sense of humor!! LOL

6 Months Old

6 month old BABY JO!

Where?! have these last six months gone?

She isn't suppose to be skooting, sitting up and rolling yet!

She is suppose to be that six day old baby still.

New things this month:
 

She actually eating more babyfood and solids better. There for a while she would just stick her tough out and not let the spoon in, but now she opens her mouth and goes mmmmm... Too funny! We've concored squash, banana oatmeal, rice and regular oatmeal. We've tried peaches, apples, and bananas but she didn't really like those much, she'd make a face and not eat anymore. We'll try again soon.  

We're finally ROLLING! Well rolling one way, but she's doing it on her own now. She can go both ways but prefers one way.

She is getting a little Attitude. Actually BIG Attitude! Its fun seeing her little personality coming out. She's a pretty good mixture of Cody and I; the cute from me and the naughty from Cody... ha ha ha. 

She's growing again! I swear it looks like she might be getting taller. She still has those rolly legs and chubby wrists and ankles but she's getting taller. 

She is gribbing, grabbing, and chewing on everything. I keep thinking she might be getting teeth but I can't feel any. BUT with all this drooling and chewing it seems like she might. 

She is learning so much every day, and its been amazing being able to help her learn. I feel a little guilty that I get to stay home and 'play' with her all day.

Love our Baby Jo so Much!

On last story: The other day, I read that six month olds can start drinking a little juice from a sippy cup, I went to buy one and well.... I just couldn't because she isn't suppose to get big, she is suppose to stay little! I tried to make her promise not to ever get big, but she's not keeping her end of the deal. I have to mentally prepare myself the next time I head to get a sippy cup... I can do it, I can do it!
