I said I would never do this

Raise your hand if you think Bridgey is a pretty dang cute baby.
Yeah me too.


Although I said I would never solicit people to help me win a contest, that was before I had a baby and now here I am, on my knees....


My awesome cousin-in-law Callie is a photographer and is having a cutest baby contest.
If you feel so inclined to vote for Bridget I would love it!


All you have to do:
1. Follow this link to her facebook page: CallieMaePhotography
2. Then you must "like" her page
3. Then go to the cutest baby ever photo album and photo number 2 is Bridget, just "like" her picture and if she gets the most likes by January 15th we win a family photo session!!! (don't you want to see more pictures of Bridget?)


This is the picture:

Thank you!!
Also if we win Bridget will give you the biggest slobbery-est kiss you could ever ask for! 
Now that is a real incentive.








In other recent news Bridget discovered her singing voice last Thursday and has been singing none stop.

It is the sweetest thing I have ever heard.

Legit Baby Shower

About two hours after Bridget was born when my midwife came in to say goodbye, Bridge was still naked in my arms. 

I asked my midwife if we would be bathing her before we left the birth center?

She responded by telling me it is very beneficial for the vernix (the white gooey stuff) to absorb into her skin, and that she personally didn't bathe her babies until they were about a week old.

Ok then, being one who washes their hair one maybe two times a week (tmi?) I am totally down with that. 

We first bathed Bridge when she was 6 days old and saying that she hated it is an understatement.

I honestly think it was the first time she cried since being born. 

I figured it would get better, a couple more times I tried with the same reaction. 

She just wasn't a fan of the bath.

So I decided we would try a shower. 

oooohhhh how she loved the shower!

I would have her up against my chest and she, on her own, would lift her head back until it was in the water and would lazily close her eyes and relax.

 Please don't judge your men too harshly, I know they can't be as manly and have as much chest hair as mine. Sorry to flaunt it so obviously.

One thing is to be said for this little girl, she knows what she wants and she will make sure we figure it out real quick.

We just love her.

 Melts my heart every time.

Movie Buff

Bridget went to her first movie the other night.

We picked the late show thinking she would sleep through it. 

She did eventually fall asleep but not before she enjoyed about 2/3rds of the action packed flick.

Judging by the fact that it captured the attention of infants and adults alike, we give Sherlock Homes two thumbs up.

3 months cute!

Who taught you that?

As I have mentioned before Bridget has perfect lips, she got them from her daddy.

And boy does she know how to use them. 

More specifically she knows how to use her bottom lip.

Please enjoy the series of pictures below:

She is a pro at pushing out that lip and does it at least once everyday. 

I want to know where she learned it, because I am in trouble if it just came naturally at 3 months old!
