4 and 5 Month Blog

I have been back to work and I am feeling stretched thin which makes me feel as if I am failing at everything since nothing gets 100% (i.e. my house, and Paisley's 4 month blog).  I am working full time, taking 8 credits for my masters, and trying to fulfill my mother/wife/daughter/sister/friend etc...roles.  (sorry everyone if I have let you down)
Well Paisley is 5 months today and we love her so much!  Here is some information on our little girl:
-Paisley went to the doctor a couple weeks ago and weighed 12 pounds and was 25 inches long.
-Brady is Mr.Mom and Paisley loves her care takers (thanks brady, mom, and jocey!) 
 I never worry about who is taking care of her and loving her.
-Paisley is called Princess P by many. 
-Paisley has stopped sleeping through the night, but we still love her!
-Paisley kicks her legs high into the air and then down on anything, her bed, the floor, Cannon's head... : )
-Speaking of Cannon (my nephew) he loves her so much and gives her kisses while snuggling with her on the floor and singing to her.  He is PRECIOUS!
-Crew (Cannon's little brother) tries to kiss her through the computer on ichat, smacks his lips whenever he is with her, and tries to shove her binkie into her eye when it falls out.
-Paisley gets very distracted while eating and loves to look at anyone talking of walking around.
-Paisley can hold her own bottle pretty darn well!
-Paisley gets her surgery Wed and will have a cast to her shoulder for up to 6 weeks!
-We love to hear her talk!
-She jams her head in the corner of her crib and freaks out, who wouldn't!
-Paisley LOVES T.V. especially Barney and the spoken word (anything with music)

An update to Brady's school:  We are really excited to move out to Pittsburgh August 2nd and we are going out there next month to find a house (cross your fingers).  I am so proud of Brady because he got a half tuition scholarship which helps us avoid a little debt!  Time is flying fast and I can't believe we have less than 2 months  left in UTAH, but we can't wait to be back east!

She lights up our lives! We are going to miss our Princess P in the basement so that we can see her any time we would like. Thanks for sharing your sweet daughter with us. We love you and know that you are a WONDERFUL wife, mother, daughter, sister and friend. You are stressed to the max with everything weighing on your slim shoulders. You are doing GREAT! Love you!

She is getting so big. Hang in there with the other things. Everything will come together nicely in the end. You are a wonderful person and I bet everyone can see how hard you work and how you do for all of them, especially your little family.

Oh she is so ADORABLE!! What a fun post to read about all of the fun things she is doing! Your family will be in my prayers for her surgery on Wednesday, the hardest part will probably be dealing with a cast on such a young baby! And I am sorry you have so much on your plate you poor thing!! If i can do anything at all to help you out in ANY way you let me know! Great post, I loved all of the pictures!
