Love the Sunshine!

It has been so pretty outside today! Daddy is recording a CD at the studio today with some friends, so it was just me and Hannah. I knew I had to get out of the house! Not only was it beautiful outside, but since daddy has been sick and not able to help with Hannah much, I was needing a day away from home!

First, we started with a picnic.

Then Hannah and I ran to Lowe's to buy a room darkening shade for her bedroom. I'm determined to get this child to take longer naps!!

After that we headed to the park to meet some friends. We got there early and so Hannah and I went on a little walk.

Everyone kept commenting about how happy Hannah was and she was just waving to everyone as we walked by. She loved it. I think she was so happy to be out of the house, too!

Our friends got there and apparently Hannah was pretty happy to see Will. They were holding hands. So cute!

Hopefully next time daddy can join in on the fun. We missed him!

After both my nieces, my nephew, my sister, brother-in-law and mom all had a horrible stomach bug....it hit our house! Yuck! Fortunately (so far) Wes has been the only one to catch it. My best friend the past few days has been a can of lysol. Just ask Wes. Our house smells like a lemon....or 1,000 lemons.
This morning I scrubbed the toilet, floors, countertops, shower...anything that was in sight. Hopefully I've killed all the germs and Hannah and I have been spared.

A few posts ago I posted the most adorable picture of my niece, Marley in her pom pom hat. Well, lo and behold.....

My mom whipped one up for Hannah, too! Thanks, Granna. I'm so thankful to have a crafty mom. I just wish she would have passed some of those genes down to me!

Wesley is on the mend, so hopefully we have a fun weekend in store!

Wordless Wednesday

Lots of the "big" bloggers do something each Wednesday called Wordless Wednesday. It's basically just a picture or two without any words. I have so many pictures that need no explanation, so I thought I'd join in.

So, here's my first Wordless Wednesday. (Next time there really won't be any words - ha!)

Bye Bye, Granna!

We have had a few semi-warm days lately. Last week it was cool outside, but we finally saw the sun. Hannah and I bundled up and went on a walk. It was so much fun. I long for the days of spring. I can't wait until it's hot and sunny all the time!

Hannah is such a big girl these days. She's eating lots of table food (but still loves her baby food)! Before Granna left to go home today Hannah ate some cheez-its. She's even sitting in a barstool all by herself! Don't worry, Granna was REALLY close by and only let go of her for me to take the picture!

I can picture her sitting at this bar stool in several years and us just chatting.

We had a fun time with Granna and were sad to see her go! But, we're looking forward to seeing daddy!

Birthday Celebration

My family has always been big on birthdays. Wesley's birthday was yesterday, so we started celebrating on Monday with different little things...like on Monday I cooked his favorite meal, Tuesday I gave him a present, etc. Then he left me to go snow skiing!!!

That's right, Wes left at 4:00 a.m. Thursday morning to go snow skiing with friends. So, my mom came to keep me company. My birthday is about a week away, so we started celebrating!!

My mom took us out to eat and I decided I wanted to go to Clear Springs, a seafood restaurant. Yum!

Christie and Justin and their family came with us.

Sweet MarleySince daddy was on the slopes, Hannah and I had to take a family picture without him. sad!


Sisters!
My mom also gave me a present. It's a rhinestone gun! EVERY mom or Granna of a little girl should have one!! I've been digging through Hannah's room trying to find stuff to "bling!" Love it!

Thanks mom, for making my birthday so special. When my real birthday rolls around next week I'm going to have to make sure Wes tries to top what you did. haha!

Mommy's Little Helper

It's nice to have some extra help around the house when daddy is at work!

Have I mentioned that Hannah is into EVERYTHING?

Play time!

First, Wesley got me these beautiful tulips for Valentine's day! He's such a sweetie!

On Monday Hannah and I got to play with Micah! He's such a sweetheart. We used to play with him once a week while mommy worked for Micah's daddy, but now that mommy has retired from that, we've missed him! We were so happy to share our toys with him.


Come back soon, Micah!
