3 Months Today!

As I look back over my friendships in life my very best friends have been strawberry blonde and red-headed females.  I am not sure why but I guess Randy is right I have a thing for red-heads.  My Mom, her sister, and younger brother all had red or auburn hair - I tell people that God really intended for me to have red hair...I have pale skin that burns & freckles very easy, I can sometimes have the demeanor of a red-head, and my hair was auburn when I was a baby.  I think at the last minute God said..."nah....I will make her hair dark and then I will give it some major curl when she turns about 13".

To my great surprise I think my little pale skin girl with the bright blue eyes might have auburn/red/strawberry blonde hair.IMG_7886IMG_7891IMG_7893 IMG_7847I bought John this GIANT balloon at United Supermarket on Friday.  The balloon is a giant sun smiling with the words "God loves you".  Little did I know it would be "Little-Bits" most favorite entertainment!IMG_7857IMG_7863IMG_7869 It's not so hard to believe my baby is 3 months old today.  I learned quickly about time travel when I had John....who will be 4 in a few short months.  :/

Christina...aka Keegan* is smiling, laughing, singing, cooing, kicking, reaching, and drooling all the time.  My Daddy promises she will be talking by the time she is 6 months old.  She is as Randy says "a Momma's girl deluxe!"  Sometimes I am the only one that can calm her down...which makes my heart smile. 

I posted the following pictures on Facebook but I think they are worth posting again...I love them!  Christina spent some time with Aunt Leelee while John & I went swimming last week.  Aunt Leelee is pretty darn good with a camera...I think her subject is just beautiful!  christina1achristina3achristina2a Happy 3 month birthday baby girl!  Mommy really loves you!  You make me so happy and I am so proud of you my little pride and joy!  I know you are tired of hearing it....but I am in love with a girl!

* Keegan was a name Randy and I really fell in love with early in the pregnancy.  It's a Welsh Irish name meaning...."fierce little one"...which describes Christina perfect!  We decided Christina had more meaning but we still call her Keegan when she sparks her personality!

I feel the same way you do about red/strawberry blondes! When I'm out in the sun, I burn within the first 5 minutes! I use SPF90, no lie!!! I love you my sweet dear friend and your blog makes me remember when my babies really were babies! Enjoy every second of every minute, in a blink of an eye, they are adults!
