Rolling with Laughter.

On March 14th, 2011, I took Mila to the doctor's office for a check up. As she was laying on the exam table, she rolled from her back to belly! Right in front of my eyes! I couldn't believe it! When I told Elvis, he asked me where she was going and I said "She was going home! She'd had enough of the doctor." Then, when we got home, I was holding her and I was saying different things to her to make her smile. Well, I said "A-choo" over and over and she just LOVED it. Then, she LAUGHED!!! It wasn't big or long, but it was a LAUGH! I couldn't believe it. In one day, my sweet girl rolled over and laughed! It totally made my day! I wish Elvis could have seen and heard it!

Update.

Mila still has a double ear infection. She was given Augmentin to help clear it up. We go back April 4th, for her 4 month wellness check-up & they will check her ears again. If they are not cleared up, Elvis and I have decided to take her to a specialist. It may seem extreme right now, but with Elvis' ear problems, we don't want to take any risks. I wish there was more I could do for her. She is totally a mommy's girl right now. She will hardly sit with Elvis for a long period of time because she wants to cuddle with me. I guess I won't complaint. =)

It's Never Too Late...

My friend just reminded me that I haven't blogged in forever! I have been too busy blogging on my family blog that I forgot about this one!!!
Well, let's give a little update! On May 29, 2010, I married my best friend, Elvis. Not Presley, Ricke. On December 4, 2010, we welcomed our sweet baby girl, Mila Page, to the world!! Since then, we've been staying busy and having a blast!
I will try to post more on this blog...simply because I love my blog title!
In the mean time, check out www.elvisandsandyricke.blogspot.com for family updates!

Love ya!

Our New Home

Elvis and I purchased our first home as newlyweds! We absolutely love it and cannot wait to have it all put together and have people over for a BBQ. I should have pictures up in the next few days, but in the mean time, here is a picture of my favorite part of the house...the kitchen. Now, I need to learn how to use it. LOL!

Baby? Oh, Baby!

Now that the wedding is over, we can officially announce that we are having a baby!! He/she will be here around December 5th, 2010. We both are so excited!! On May 24th we were able to hear the heart beat for the first time. Only one word describes this feeling...surreal! You have no idea until you are there.
Luckily, I have felt really well! I was only tired for about a week. I had dreams that I feel asleep in the isle at Wal-Mart.
I'm so excited and Elvis is the most excited dad-to-be I have ever seen. I am very lucky to have someone so giddy!! I love him!

Wedded Bliss!

Elvis and I were married on May 29th, 2010, in front of family and friends. Check out www.rachelblackwellphotography.com/blog to view some pictures of our special day!

Lingerie Party!

My future sister-in-laws, Cyndel and Misty, hosted a lingerie party for me on March 20, 2010. Cyndel made fabulous strawberry cupcakes, cheese cake, chicken turnovers, and dip. Misty brought my favorite salad from Tim's Pizza. They had spiked punch, regular punch, and of course, what lingerie party doesn't have jell-o shots?!?! We played a game where my guests decorated "granny" panties and another where they made sexy lingerie out of streamer! It was so fun! I wish my best friend, Ashley, and bridesmaid, Kari, could have been there...unfortunately Ashley lives in Texas and Kari had shingles. But, I got tons of fabulous gifts from my friends and future family! Here are some pictures...of course I can't share them all...I don't want Elvis to see!!! ;-)

I had to take a shot every time someone said "Elvis, Sexy, or Lingerie!"
