Little Miss Independent

Lucy is pretty dang hard to feed lately because she wants to feed herself.  So after weighing my options of either a fight and no food OR a very messy and somewhat fed child, I gave in.  Good thing she's so cute!

Gardening 101

So I've always wished I had a garden but didn't know where to start.  Luckily I was able to volunteer my backyard for Enrichment a few weeks ago and now I have a garden!  Now we'll see how long it takes me to kill everything:)  We planted tomatoes, zucchini, green peppers, strawberries and cantaloupe.

Bad bandaid idea

This video is pretty funny; well it makes ME laugh!  Like I said, I don't know what I was thinking but Theo was a good sport!  You've gotta LOVE his face when I'm pulling it off and then the relief that comes after.  Ah, good times as a mother.

Lucy's Birthday!

I can't believe my sweet little angel just turned one!  What a complete joy she is in our family!

Don't look "two" close at the candle, it was the only one I had!  

Here she is, a star already!

Easter

Next time I'll remember not to have the Easter Bunny come in the morning!  After church would work much better:)

I don't think Theo has had this much chocolate in his whole life

Las Diego

Jerry had to pick up some glass in Las Vegas so we decided to make a vacation out of it!  It was SOOOOO much fun!  Thanks to the Earl's and Law's for allowing us to stay with them.  Both Las Vegas and San Diego had beautiful weather and we wish we could've stayed longer!  Hope you're feeling better Amy!

I bribed Lucy with a Red Vine to keep her quiet for the ONE time Theo actually fell asleep.  

Theo and Lucy absolutely LOVED all the dogs at the Earls.

We took the kids to see the Knights at the round table show and I think Lucy was more excited b/c Theo could hardly keep his eyes open from lack of sleep!
