A Saturday celebration of Mother's Day

I had the best Mother's Day on Saturday, we celebrate with our little family on Saturday and with both of our Mom's on Sunday!  Bri and Belle took me out to a yummy lunch and we ran some errands.  We LOVED the beautiful weather and spent a lot of the day outside.  After Belle's nap we headed to yo foria for some yummy frozen yogurt.  My dear friend Linda always raves about it so I was so excited to hear we were getting one here!  Belle loved her first "frozen yogurt" experience, but think the cold was a little sensitive on her teeth so she stuck to the blueberries until it melted a bit.

Later in the evening Bri cooked me a marvelous dinner one of my favs lamb chops!  I called him the one armed grill bandit :)

We had such a lovely day!!!  Plus Belle gave me the adorable present she made me, pics to come later  :)

Buckles, buckles, buckles

Can I please tell you how obsessed our sweet pea is with buckles?  I think she would seriously play with them all day, snapping strollers, suitcases and her high chair!  I told Bri we need to get her a board of snap buckles for her birthday.  Here she is hard at work with her high chair, which I might add she can climb up and buckle herself in ALL by herself!!

Not too much camera time lately

As many of our lovely family and friends know, Bri had surgery almost two weeks ago on his shoulder.  While it was much more intensive then they initially thought but we are so fortunate that it went so well.  Bri is recovery really well and working hard at physical therapy.  But, he is in a sling for a least six weeks so things are and will continue to be a little crazy at our house! 

Happy Easter

We had the best Easter, Belle did great at church and was of course admired by all!  After church the Easter bunny brought her some puzzles, bubbles and a baby stroller(which has become her new obsession)  We headed over to Gigi and Pap's for a wonderful Easter meal, more egg hunting and fun with cousins!  Belle received so many goodies from Gigi and Pap and her cousins, thanks so much!!!  We were also able to watch some old slides of daddy when he was a baby which was too fun!

A bow?

As many of you know and can tell Belle doesn't have much hair therefore bows aren't on the priority list.  But all of a sudden she is starting to grow a little more.  Much to my dislike bows still don't interest her, but over the weekend she decided to wear this pink one off her jumper for quite some time.  Maybe I am breaking her down or maybe she thought it would get her out a nap?  Who knows?

Still hasn't given it up...

It has been over a month now and Belle still chasing the dogs endlessly shoveling food in their mouth.  They are such good sports now they just spit it out when she isn't looking.........

Hunting for Eggs

Belle was fortunate to do lots of hunting for eggs this year.  This particular egg hunt was at a friend of ours from Church.  We invited little Nolan and Ellie to join us for their first egg hunt EVER:)  The babes were so cute and I enjoyed hanging out with them AND their parents for a little cookout at our house afterwards.  Belle loved hunting eggs with Rachel, a friend from church.  She is older than Belle and showed her all the ropes.
