Relaxing!!

I finally did it! I finished my Master's last week!! It was such a great feeling after I mailed my portfolio to my professor last Monday. I have been working on it for 18 months and you never think you will get to that last course, but I did! Kerry, Kaylor, and I went to Cracker Barrel to celebrate after we left the post office from sending my work :)
Besides that, I have been enjoying the extra time around the house. Before, I would be watching videos or writing papers on my free days, but I guess you could say now the house stays cleaner and I'm now caught up with laundry on a regular basis :)
Kaylor is getting so big. She has been teething for a couple of weeks now. I know this is early because she is only 3 1/2 months old. Her teeth are not through the gums yet, but you can see them coming in. She has been a little bit more fussy and so much drool!! I have been giving her a cold teething ring and it always makes her feel so much better. She also rolled over for the first time on Thursday!! She was playing on her mat and I happened to look down at her from the couch and she just rolled over completely to her tummy!! Of course since then she has not done it again after many attempts with the video camera and her dad watching. But I was so glad to see it--it's funny how excited I got when she did roll over though. I will hopefully get it on video soon and post it on here.
Since many of you are unable to come over to our house, I will post a picture of the 20 x 24 collage that Josh Harris got printed for me after her 3 month photo shoot. The picture does not show how good it looks in person. Josh did her pictures and we met him and Alison for dinner the other night and picked up all of the pictures I ordered. Let's just say I went straight to Hobby Lobby after dinner to get it framed because I could not wait the next day to see it up in our house. Hobby Lobby let us stay 30 minutes after closing so they could finish the frame. We love it!!
Here are some pictures from the last couple of weeks:
After my Master's I ate some cookies from the 'cookie bouquet' that my Mom got me!!
The picture collage in our house.
The teething ring and bebe pod seat that she loves!
And of course the 'after the bath' picture. We always have to take these :)
