Happy Birthday to me!!!

 Yesterday was my 25th Birthday!! I was so blessed to get to spend it with Aimsley and my family! We had a lunch at Rafferty's, my favorite, then we enjoyed the UK game and had some ice cream cake from Dairy Queen, also my favorite! I was so excited that Aimsley was feeling much better and got to spend the day with me! She will be 9 months old tomorrow on New Year's Eve! I can't believe she is so close to being one! We are hoping she will start walking very soon! She is getting very mobile crawling everywhere and also walking while holding on to things! Everyone have a safe New Year! I'll see you all in 2013!!

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas everyone! I hope your Christmas was as wonderful as ours! Christmas Eve was at Granny and Pas and it was wonderful. It was both Aimsley and Deans first Christmas! They were so fun to watch. This year they were more interested in the paper though than the actual gifts! Next year will be a lot more fun! For the first time I did not wake up at mom and dad's house on Christmas morning. This made me feel very old. But I did get to wake up at Matthew's house and have Christmas there first! It was wonderful! We also got Kathy a new puppy for Christmas. His name is Nelson and he is a labradoodle! Cutest thing ever! After that we went to Jetson where we met Keishia and Chase and Aimsley because they had their own Christmas morning at their house! We had a late breakfast, which was wonderful, then tore into our presents. Lets just say Santa was VERY generous at the Hatcher household this year and Aimsley got VERY spoiled!!! Christmas night was not quite as fun because Aimsley was VERY sick. She was running a temp and literally crying all night. Keishia actually had to take her to the doctor the very next morning. She did not eat for over 12 hours and her fever got up to 102.5. She had an ear infection and respiratory virus. She was negative for the flu. Aimsley went back to the doctor today and they are trying more antibiotics and doing a chest X Ray tomorrow! Hoping the little girl gets to feeling better soon! In the mean time here are some pictures from Christmas! Everyone say a little prayer that Aimsley feels better soon. She has lots of presents from Santa to play with!!!

Its Beginning to look a lot like Christmas!!!

So much for Nashville this weekend! Matthew surprised me and we flew to Chicago!! I couldn't believe it. I have never flown and have always wanted to go to Chicago so he knocked out two birds with one stone! What a wonderful Christmas present! I was so surprised and the weekend was absolutely magical!!! I am still on Cloud 9 from it!!! While I was gone dad took some wonderful pictures of Aimsley for Christmas!!! They are literally precious!!! Merry Christmas and travel safe as I know Christmas festivities are probably going to be in full swing this weekend!!!

Evening with Aunt Kei Kei

Well we figured out the source of the sickness! It wasn't teething, it was an ear infection and pink eye! Keishia and Chase have been sick as well so thank goodness for Grammy and Popaw coming to the rescue. I believe they have prepared their whole lives for having grandchildren because they have so many days saved up that they can literally take off anytime they need to. This helps a lot when you have a baby who gets sick from daycare often! But Aimsley is on the mend! I got to spend the afternoon with Aimsley alone while Keishia, Matthew, and Chase all went to the Orthopedics Plus Christmas party!! We had so much fun with a full night of walking (with help) cuddles and giggles! I love spending these nights alone with her because I get a feel for what parenting is really like. For example you have to learn to hold a baby on your hip and pull your pants down with one hand to go to the bathroom! Haha what a learning experience! I also am taking a personal day tomorrow and spending the whole weekend with Matthew! The plan is to go to Nashville and spend some time with friends, see Christmas lights, and go shopping! I can't wait!!!

Fussy Girl

Aimsley has not been feeling well lately. She has been running a fever and been very fussy! We think and are hoping its just teething! Aimsley spent the weekend shopping at the mall and rode the Carousel for the first time with Popaw!! She had fun!!! I hope everyone's shopping is going well! After this weekend Aimsley is worn out!! Hope the bunny feels better soon!

Here comes Santa Claus!

Well its officially December and we couldn't be more ready for Christmas! This weekend we took Aimsley to her first parade, she got to meet Santa, and experience snow (fake) all in the same day! We had a great weekend and she loved the parade!! She wasn't too crazy about Santa though...haha but who is. I swear the thought of little kids sitting in some random mans lap is a little creepy! Hoping this month flies by!!! Can't wait to spend Aimsley's first Christmas with her!

Black Friday and Christmas!!

Well this weekend was a great one! On Friday me, Keishia, and Chase, did a little Black Friday shopping. We do have to say this was the least crowded we have seen it. Keishia and Chase got a lot of their shopping done and I put a small dent in mine! Mom and Dad didn't come this year, they stayed home and babysat Aimsley! All in all after some shopping and some hot dogs the day was a success! When we returned home I helped them put up their tree and Aimsley got her first glimpse of Christmas lights! She was amazed and of course tried to eat them because she puts everything in her mouth that she can but she loved it!!! We had such a fun weekend!! Aimsley is also drinking from a big girl sippy!!! She loves drinking out of her cups like we do!

Thanksgiving! NOM NOM NOM!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!! I am overwhelmed with thanks on this day! I have the most wonderful family, niece, and boyfriend! I couldn't ask for a better life!! We had a great time at mom and dad's last week, Aimsley went to visit Oma and Opa yesterday then came to Carmen and Chad's for Thanksgiving that is usually at Granny's. Since Carmen and Chad just moved in their new house we decided to have it there so that everyone could see it!! I also got to spend the night with Aimsley the night before Thanksgiving because Keishia and Chase got a new bedroom suit in and was busy putting it all together! Me and Aimsley had so much fun!!! She had a long day though and was very fussy by the time she got to Carmen and Chad's. She is also at the stage right now where she is having a little stranger danger and is very picky at who she lets hold her. Hopefully she will grow out of this soon!!!! I hope everyone's Thanksgiving was as wonderful as ours!!

Happy Birthday Grammy

Yesterday was Grammy's birthday!!! Aimsley loves getting to spend Wednesdays with her Grammy and loves her very much!!! We just had a family day with dinner and ice cream cake of course!!! Happy Birthday Grammy! We love you!

Aunt Kei Kei

I'm dedicating this post to myself and some of the cute pictures I have taken while getting to spend time with Aimsley. Some of our favorite things to do are cuddles, play with Aunt Kei Kei's earrings, watch Mickey, tickles and giggles, and bath time! I love spending time with her!

This Owl hat is my favorite. I have a huge thing for owls because of my sorority. I believe I bought Aimsley some owl things before she was born, but this hat is the best!!
