"Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy..."

It's happened... Spring is finally here! We are enjoying the weather before it turns too hot for my fair skin and hot-weather-hating sensibilities. Nothing too exciting to report of course, but things are good. Bailey is walking more and will hopefully be just walking very soon. There are a lot of skirts I want that girl to be able to wear. She is really hindering her clothing selections - she has plenty to choose from of course, but that doesn't seem to stop me from buying more; sorry Trevor. :-) 

This past weekend we took Bailey to a park where she was absolutely petrified of the slide and hated the grass. This girl may enjoy the indoors a little too much. We tried again and had much better success on the slide at the park by our house. We are making progress with the grass as well - at least she isn't crying now when we set her down on it.

Just yesterday Bailey has "Open(ed) the gate and seize(d) the day...". She can now open doors. She is tall enough and apparently smart enough to do it. More kid proofing to be coming I am sure. She also has more teeth than any other kid she knows. She is up to a phenomenal 15 with the 16th almost coming through. She is pretty fun and fabulous. She is trying to talk more, and we are doing our best to understand her. We are looking forward to a trip to Idaho to see some of my family in a couple weeks. Should make for some fun cousin shots and stories. I hope that everyone had a great Mother's Day. It was another fun year for me. I love being a mom and am so fortunate that I finally got Miss Bailey. 

I also just realized that it was 10 years ago today that Trevor and I first "connected." It has been a fabulous adventure so far and I can't wait for the continued story. Stay tuned adventures - we are just getting started...

Look at all those teeth! What goofballs.

I only wear this when I don't care how I look.

  2. Looks like fun! I don't know why but going to the park by my self with the kids sounds like a lot of work ;) so we haven't ventured out much yet. Maybe when you guys come to town.
