Preslee's First Few Months

Being a Mom is busy! I thought I would be posting on this blog all the time, but as soon as I get Preslee fed and happy, dishes done, house somewhat clean, and settle down to write in the blog, Preslee is up and wanting fed again or needs a diaper change or something. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love every second with her. She is such a doll. But it's also not like I sit around eating bon bons all day and taking naps. Being a stay at home mom is tough work! But by far my favorite job I've ever had. Ever.
We went down to Southern Idaho to visit my family when Dave got done with school at the end of May. It was awesome to be down there and lots of people hadn't met Preslee yet, so she got to meet lots of family! We decided to have her blessing down there in my parent's ward because it would be easier for both of our families to make it there instead of up here in Moscow.
Here are some pictures of that weekend: 

 This is on her blessing day, May 20th. It was such a special day! Dave blessed Preslee with some amazing things including an attitude of work, ability to discern truth and a love of music. I'm so thankful for a worthy priesthood holder in our home.

A few of my friends came over to hang out. This is Preslee and her friend Ezra (Kayla's son). He was born in February, so just a few months older than Preslee. It was fun to see them!

Preslee and Bridger! They are good cousins!
It was awesome to see everyone!

Here are more pictures of Preslee and some fun videos we have taken:

My mom gave me this outfit to put on Preslee. My grandma Judy made it for my mom when I was born and I wore it when I was Preslee's size. Now Preslee can wear it! It's so cute!

 Preslee has LONG eyelashes. She's so beautiful. I get asked all the time if I have considered entering her into modeling or cutest baby photo contests. Haha... I always say no.

Her cute little nose and precious lips.

 She's doing really well on her tummy. This is her superman pose. I wish I had taken a video of her on her tummy because she is hilarious. She does NOT like tummy time very much. She gets soooo mad. In this picture she is screaming! It takes me about 10 to 15 minutes to calm her down after she's been on her tummy. But the doctor said that this is the only area where she is a little behind in developing, so she has to be on her tummy more. Sorry Preslee!

This is July 1st after church. She is so cute! She's finally fitting into her 0-3 month old clothes, now that she's 12 weeks old!

Preslee is so smiley and precious. She is starting to coo and grunt at me more and we have a lot of good conversations. On June 30th she giggled at me for the first time. It absolutely made my day and melted my heart. She loves it when her daddy comes home and will coo and smile at him for a good 30 minutes when he comes home. She likes her baths and is starting to splash and play in the tub. It's so cute. She does NOT like it when I get her out of the bath or when I clean her ears. Preslee is such a great baby and will sleep from about 10:00 at night to 4:00 in the morning and then usually goes back to sleep from 5:00 to about 7:00 or 8:00. She is a great eater and is so content. She's a very chill baby. We love her with all of our hearts and can't believe how lucky we are.
