Noey was more interested in eating her Bumbo.

The Carousel
On the 22nd we took Noey to the antique carousel at the District. I think she enjoyed herself! I'm sure she will even more as she gets bigger!
Daycare Easter Party
Miss Joan had 16 kids at her house for an Easter Party! Holy smokes! I was only planning on 6 and the new baby to be there and that is all I had prepared in the way of goodie bags! I ended up dumping them all out as soon as I got there into a big bucket so the kids could pick and choose. There was plenty once I did that.
First they colored eggs and then sang songs while Joan's sons hid eggs. There was a crazy egg hunt and they had meatloaf and potatoes for lunch. She made cupcakes and a rabbit cake. Each kid also got their own Easter basket! We didn't stay too long. It was very hot and cramped but it was nice to go while I was on break.

Spring Pictures
We got these taken at Kiddie Kandids this week for her 6 month celebration and Easter. This was our first time there and it was better than Portrait Innovations but I'm still not totally impressed. Thankfully, we were able to buy the disk with the original images on them for Dave to doctor up. He hasn't had time to do that yet so these are the "enhancements" made by the photographer there. The fixed images will be ordered in prints and sent to family and friends in the next coming weeks but here is a preview!
We were told to bring props and that the first pictures would be her in her diaper chilling out. I took the minky cow blanket because it really is her favorite thing at this point in her young life. We call it the Magic Cow because you wrap it around her head and she is out like a light!! Happily, she cooperated and gave us some big smiles! :)
Her next picture was in her Easter dress. We should have practiced with the shoes earlier on because that is all she cared about. We did get a good full shot though. My mom said she looks like the Queen Mum, all dressed for the Royal Wedding. My brother mentioned that she had her purple on for our Grandma Sweetie. I'll admit that was in the back of my mind when I picked the dress. Noey's Great Grandma did love purple!!
For the third outfit I took in a dress that used to be mine. My mom saved it and I think I briefly used it on some of my dolls when I was little. It was one of those items that I took care of though and set aside to not harm it. My mom's bosses wife purchased this for me when I was a baby and I had portraits done in the outfit when I was maybe around six months. I was a big baby so it's hard to tell how old I was in the pictures! I'll have to scan it so we can do a comparison! When we were testing this outfit out it brought her daddy to tears because she is just so dang cute! :)
Here is my Little Bo Peep!
For her final look we took in a onesie that had been purchased for Noelle by Dave's cousins, George and Mary. It is such a beautiful little outfit and I thought it would look nice with my Alabaster Easter eggs we took in. The embroidery is so delicate I just don't know where my little monster will wear this outfit so we used it for pictures! The photographer didn't zoom in enough to really get the detail so maybe we'll do our own Easter shoot at home and use it again!!!
The last shot we threw in the bunny ears. She looks so funny in this picture and it looks like her arm is in a cast! What a little goober she is!

1/2
On April 14th, Noelle turned 6 months! Where has the time gone?! It seems like she just got here and she's growing up so fast and turning into a little person! She is getting really good at picking things up now and will take her bottle right off the table and pop it in her mouth! She loves all her fruits and veggies and is getting so tall!
I made her an outfit to celebrate the occassion. She looked so cute!
For her celebration, which took place later that weekend, she watched us eat Cold Stone but she got two Sing-A-Ma-Jigs and a new dinosaur blanket.

She's a Stinker!
Sticks her tongue out like a pro!
Not ok with the shades...
Throws up on daddy and then has to be "forced" to look at the camera. She got him good!
Love my girl.

Passed Out
Noelle is still fighting her cold. She's kind of crabby today and pretty tired. So tired, she conked out playing in her bouncy seat!
