Our Lazy Day

After Emma and I dropped Katie off at school, we hung out and went to the store until it was time to get her again. I like this kid, she's so funny. At the end of the day, Katie made a fort and she and Emma watched Netflix in it on her iPad. Funny night, these kids crack me up. They snuck a bag of marshmallows in there for a snack. I let them be, they were being good and playing together nicely. While I was looking through my phone tonight, I noticed Emma had taken a few selfies of herself haha. She is too funny how she knows how to take pictures of herself now. She's learning new things everyday and it's so fun to watch. Love both my girls!

Grandpa's Getting Older

We had a relaxing morning hanging out around the house. The kids were being silly, Emma made herself comfy on the coffee table and played with her turtle around the house. She's finally able to reach a little. After we went to Target to get a birthday card for David's Dad. So last minute I know, but things got away from me this week. The kids were being silly in the store playing with accessories. They're so cute. I love them both. Grandpa's birthday was held at Michael's house, it was a small get together. Emma and Audrey sort of played together, as in, they sat by each other for a while. lol. Cute watching them get older.

Books, Books, Books

I took the girls to Barnes & Noble to let Katie spend her gift card. Of course I ended up helping a little, so she could get her book and a bookmark. I'm just glad she likes to read ;) She was having fun playing with the blocks and trains with Emma while we were there. They're funny kids. It was a nice relaxing day =)

Out And About With Katie

Katie and I were enjoying our weekend, shopping and getting snacks together.

 We ended up being silly at JoAnn's. Love this girl!!

Walking In Wally's

Anthony, Ashleigh, the kids and I walked around Wal-Mart out of boredom. The kids played in the toy aisle. Madison was happy to be a part of it, lol :p

Toys R Us

Katie's Great Uncle sent her a Toys R Us gift card as a late Christmas present. I took her to the store and let her pick what she wanted.

The little nerd chose a book and an umbrella. Lauryn laughed, but Katie really likes them lol. She asks if it's raining every day so she can use her umbrella outside.

Easter Dress: FOUND

I finally found an Easter dress for Katie! Hurray! It's not as Spring-ish and Easter-ish as I'd like, but she looks like a princess in it for sure! It's so pretty! Expensive for a baby dress she'll wear only twice! (To have her pictures taken, and Easter day.) But beautiful. I wish I had pictures of it to share, but give me a week! I made an appointment with Kiddie Kandids for this Thursday :) I'll be taking her First St. Patrick's Day pictures and her Easter pictures at the same time, to save me money. I will just need to do a quick "costume change" lol.

David and I are taking her to the beach for the first time on Saturday (weather permitting), just to walk around and dip her toes in the sand. It's way too cold for the ocean, I'm sure. But it will be a nice relaxing family day I hope :) Hopefully I can get some good, cute pictures in while we're there. But first I have to unload my camera at Sam's Club. My memory card is FULL!

And the boring day comes to an end...

I ended up just going to Wal-Mart after all. I didn't find a skirt for Katie :/ But I did find more Valentine cards to send out. Now I just need one for David. The stores don't have very many for boyfriends that I can find :/ Sucks. Katie likes riding in the cart I think. She'd like anything that wasn't her carseat though haha. She hates being trapped in it. She did good in the store though. I bought her some toast snacks for babies and she chowed down when we got to my Mom's lol. She liked them! They're kind of like the teething cookies.

When we got to my Mom's house, Katie had a yummy jar of Sweet Potatoes, (after her toast lol). She got distracted by my Cream of Wheat though, and my Mom ended up giving her a small bowl of it. Katie loved it so much, towards the end of the bowl, she started just drinking it from the bowl. Screw the spoon! lol. I wish I had a picture, but I didn't think about it until she had "drank" it all haha. Then she went back to the sweet potatoes. You can see in the picture how hungry she was, mouth open wide tounge sticking out lol.

After she was full and done eating, she was changed so she could be FRESH! Then she played in her walker for a little bit. She loves that thing, but of course having the short attention span she does, she only stays in it for 10-20 minutes, but that's still a good enough break for Mommy :) After she settled down a little my Mom read her a story. "Curious George Rides a RollerCoaster" I had gotten it for her when we went to Wal-Mart earlier. I need to start reading to her more. I want her to like books as she grows up. Hopefully it will help make her into smart little girl :) Don't let her fool you though, as soon as that book was finished, she was all over the place again. Crawling to me, pulling herself up into my lap, I played with her for a bit, swinging her and making her laugh. She is always so full of energy, she amazes me. I'm tired long before she is!
