Sunday Fun-day!

Tinsley had a pretty rough night last night.  She went to sleep around 8:45 as usual.  At around 9:30, I noticed that she was moving around quite a bit.  I was watching her on the monitor and she sat up in bed  (a new thing she started on Wednesday night).  She leaned back and hit her head on her bed.  Whitney was here spending the night(thank goodness).  We both rushed into Tinsley's room to check on her and she seemed fine.  She did not even actually cry, just sort of whined a little bit.  I picked her up to calm her down and laid her back down in bed.  When I laid her back down, I noticed that it looked like she had spit up quite a bit.  I picked her back up to clean her up and she immediately started vomitting.  I quickly took her into the living area where we have tile floors and off her carpet.  She continued vomitting until she started dry heaving.  We had a mess!  It was all over her, me, her room, and now the living room.  Whitney and I called Grandmom and Granddad for backup.  Mom and Whitney got the mess cleaned up and Tinsley's sheets changed while dad and I got Tinsley cleaned up.  We are unsure what caused her tummy to be so upset, but we are of course attributing it to teething.  Right before she got her first tooth, she had a similar episode, so we will see.  She woke up this morning happy as can be.  She was thrilled when Grandmom got here to pick her up for church.

Grandmom looks pretty happy to see Tinsley as well!

Our little daredevil.


Apparently, her chair tastes good ;-)


After church, Tinsley and Grandmom attended a baby shower for Meghan Akin at Kyle and Desi's.
Ready to party

Tired little party animal :-)

Tinsley is taking her first trip to the beach this week. When I got to Grandmom and Granddad's this evening, she was in the pool getting warmed up for her big week!




After her bath, she chased Eagan around in the walker for a while.

If only my arms were a little bit longer!!!!

Crawling

Tinsley officially started crawling tonight! She has been rocking back and forth on her hands and knees for a while now. On Wednesday, she started going from her hands and knees position to a sitting position. Tonight we were playing in her room and she moved forward officially crawling on her hands and knees for the first time. Of course, she went straight to Eagan. J

Tinsley in action!  Doesn't Eagan look thrilled!?!?!?

Desi's Graduation

Desiree graduated from Texas State University today.  We are so excited for Desi and so proud of her!  After the graduation, everyone went to El Ranchito to celebrate.

The graduate






Tinsley and Desi's niece Avery were both quite interested in Avery's daddy's phone :-)

After we got home tonight, Tinsley was ready for some quality time with Eagan. Much to Eagan's dismay, this meant chasing him all over the house!!!


On the go with Tinsley

Tinsley has had a busy start to the week. 
Tinsley having breakfast Monday morning.  Mom sent me this picture and said "We all have our own way of eating".  I think we have a future cheerleader on our hands.  That looks like a beautiful toe touch to me!!!

Playing in the grass at Grandmom and Granddad's

Ready to go shopping with Grandmom and Aunt Sherri on Tuesday morning

"Don't worry Eagan, I will be back later"


Saying hi to Grandmom(Tinsley's favorite person to go with)

Warning:  This is what shopping with Grandmom and Sherri will do to you!

New Trick

Tinsley has started going from a crawling position on her hands and knees into a sitting position.  This means that she pretty much gets wherever she wants to go.  She can roll(really quickly), get into a crawling position and then go from there to a sitting position.  It is amazing how fast she is growing up and how quickly she became so mobile!

In the process of going from crawling position to sitting position


I love that Tinsley's hair is getting thick enough to be able to wear a small bow without a headband. 

Peek-a-Boo

Tinsley received an adorable peek-a-boo bear from Larianne.  It plays peek-a-boo with you when you press its foot.  It has quickly become one of Tinsley's favorite toys.  Thanks Larianne!






She is so funny when it first starts, she just sits and watches it for a few seconds and then she starts laughing and reaching for it.  So much fun!

Runaway

Tinsley decided that she did not want to wear a diaper this evening when I was in the process of changing her.  She is constantly on the move!

Busy Weekend

Tinsley has been on the go as usual this weekend!  She woke up bright and early Friday morning at 4:15!  She had a bottle, we played a little bit, she took a nap, and then woke up and had some breakfast.  This girl knows how to get the weekend started off right!

Happy after breakfast.

Tinsley and Eagan decided to do a little bit of sorting through her bow basket.

Tinsley says "Don't worry Eagan, I still love your tail better than any bow!"

I hope Eagan is enjoying his last few days of being able to get away from Tinsley.  She will be crawling any day.  She pushes up onto her hands and knees, rocks around and even scoots backwards.  She will be mobile in no time!




Tinsley's hair is really thickening up.  This morning, I clipped a bow in for a few minutes and it stayed!  I don't think it is quite thick enough yet to wear a bow without a headband all day, but we will be there shortly!
Ready to go with Grandmom.  They went and picked up Sherri, went and visited Gramps and Gran, had lunch with the ladies at Garcia's and then went to Floresville!  Tinsley is having a blast!


Saturday morning we went shopping with Grandmom and Aunt Whitney.  Grandmom shared her muffin with Tinsley before we left.

Headed home from our shopping excursion.

Saturday afternoon Tinsley and I attended her friend Bella's first birthday party!

Tinsley had a great time at the party!  Believe it or not, about 3 minutes after this picture was taken, Tinsley was fast asleep!!!  Partying is lots of fun, but apparently VERY tiring!

Sunday morning, we got up and played for a while before church.

Ready for church
When you put Tinsley in the carseat, she immediately pushes herself up and flips around to see who is in the front seat.  She laughs and loves to talk to grandmom(her usual chauffer).

What a fun, busy weekend!!!
