Spring Fever

Thanks for your prayers! Bee's fever has been gone for almost 24 hours and Cory and I both have gotten more sleep! Thank you doctor Rick for your advice!
Bee only woke up once last night! The following pictures are in order (oldest to newest).

This was Bee and Cory the Saturday before last in the park!

Sunday before last at Church Bee sported her new "re-purposed" dress I made her out of my old work shirt! I love my new sewing machine! I learned how from this tutorial
My new favorite word has been "re-purpose" and so I was excited to hear about Betz White coming to the Etsy labs in Brooklyn to promote her new book "Sewing Green." She taught us how to make recycled tyvek totes! It was great meeting her! She is an inspiration for me!
Bee is a dancer!
Naomi has returned from the land down under! She brought Bee a cute Australian onesie!
Our web cam is fixed! Papa Lyle got to watch Bee try some applesauce!
Let us know when you would like to tune into the Bee Channel!
Bee in a swing for the first time!
Bee likes the grass!
This past Sunday at Union Square was the annual "NYC Garden Grows Festival." We went the past two years and it is my favorite! This year I stayed home with the sick Bee. Cory went with instructions to see and do everything for me! He soon realized that the economy caught up with this festival. There were no coroportoe sponsors and hardly any local vendors. We were both glad I stayed home with Bee. But I do like this picture that Cory took of Union Square!
On Saturday Bryna and I went to a mega baby stoop sale! We found this cute rocking bug! I gave it a good bath and now it as good as new! Bee loves it!
"Look Ma, one hand!"
Baby Blues
Yesterday was President Grants Birthday and at Grand Square (a couple of blocks from our house) a few people decided to throw him a birthday! Cory saw it advertised on the iternet and went (I was putting Bee to bed). Not too many people showed up but Cory had a great time, met new friends in the neighborhood and ate some yummy cake from one of our favorite bakeries (he shared his slice with me!). Here is a picture he took of the reenactment reading.

Baby Bee is sick

Pray for Bee! She has had a fever for 3 days now. She seems to be in pain but has no other symptoms besides the fever that comes and goes. The first night she had a fever her second tooth finally pushed through her gums, so I blamed it on that but now I am not convinced that she has a fever because of the teething. We will probably be taking her to the doctor in the morning. Also pray for Cory and I as we haven't slept much. Sorry, I don't have the time to put up pics right now. I've got to get in bed while I have the chance. Thank you.

Happy Spring!

Bee had her 6month checkup on Wednesday. She weighed 17lbs 3 ozs.
The next day we decided to try and spice things up for Bee. I mixed up some baby rice cereal with her breast milk. You can see from the picture that Bee wasn't too thrilled! I thought she was ready for solid food but not yet or at least not this. I tried the mixture and it just tasted like breast milk. I guess Bee just likes it straight from the source!

Bee's tooth!

Bee turned 6 months this week! Here are a few shots on the day she turned 6 months!
Bee is getting so big and can do a lot more. It is the best watching your daughter learn and grow each day!
Happy Belated Easter! Jesus Has Risen!

Bee and church buddie Elsa! Elsa is about a month younger than Bee. At church this past Sunday Bee and Elsa spent some time in the nursery hanging out without any parents (their own parents that is)! They grow up so fast!

Decklan and Chaz in their Easter Sunday sweaters!
Picnic in the Park after church! It was a nice sunny but windy day. (side note: it is finally reached the 70s outside right now and I can't wait to get out side 4/18/09).

Cory and Bee
Bee's bear butt!
Mama and Bee
Bee's 1st Easter Egg Hunt! I'm sure she would have been happy hanging out in the dirt but I couldn't have her get all dirty and I know there will be plenty of dirty park clothes this summer!
Bee found an egg!


Bee is getting much better at sitting up on her own!After the park we went over to our friends house for another Easter Celebration!


We went to the Brooklyn Children's Museum. We only live a 10 minute walk away! Bee loves to ride on her daddy's shoulders! They are standing in front of a subway care you can hang out in. This is the entrance to "Brooklyn World."


They made it look like a mini version of a Brooklyn Street.The Grocery store was my favorite. This is a little girl's dream! They have every food you can think of in the fake version complete with a working conveyor belt!
Bee and I will be spending a lot of time in this kid version of Brooklyn. There was also a fun bakery and a pizza parlor where you make your own fake pizza.
Fishies
Bee likes to look at everything!
The Musuem also has a special secion for babies and toddlers! Bee was facinated by the water!


A fun dress up section
The baby news channel!
If you come and visit us you can be sure that we will want to go to Children's Museum so you can play with Bee! Also, if you have kids (hint hint Brother Philip) you have got to come here!

Speaking of Brother Philip. It is Callie's 2nd Birthday today!

Happy Bee-day Callie. Callie is Bee's only cousin!

The Secret Life of Bees

Melissa and I started to watch the movie "The Secret Life of Bees" while she was at our house. It was a bit of a sad movie. However...the Bee we all know and love is happy happy happy! And our Bee is not so secret!

Here is Bee at Tom's Diner in Brooklyn. We like to take all our house guests here for breakfast at least once!

After Breakfast we headed to the Botanical Garden!
