Welcome to April!

Well....it has been a busy last week- and I have been burdened by not blogging! We have had so many things going on that I had to share them with you! As April approaches in NWA we have had some good weather days and bad weather days...today is a bad one. It rained all night and I think we have a river in the back yard. We did get out to enjoy the weather one day last week and we had a great time outside! Payton loved exploring with the leaves and trying to eat them. She blinked her eyes in the breeze as it almost took her breath away. She is going to love being outside all summer!
This is what we call "the pose" and she can't ever do it when she is older! She goes from one side to the other as she takes her break from crawling all over the place! She can just scoot and be in the other room before you know it!

Aren't these pants the cutest! They are perfect for our after Easter wearing white and still warm enough for this crazy weather! They are so soft and cuddly....thanks Grand Aunt Jenny!!

She loved opening one of Mommy's packages! It was just her size!
We went to LR this weekend and got the chance to fit in so many things and see so many people! If you know my husband, you know that completely stressed him out- but he made time for everyone and I love him for that because it was so important to me! One of the stops was to see our friends Kris and Rachel and their new baby George! He is 5 weeks old and sooo cute! Payton loved exploring everything about him. She did pretty well with me holding him, I wasn't so sure since this weekend we also entered into the "only mommy can hold me"phase....great. But George was such a cutie and we were so glad to get to meet him!


Our Cousins Erin and Casey were in town from Texas too- so we got to spend time with them as well- that was a special treat because normally we see them Thanksgiving and on vacations in the summer- They helped feed her and played with her- Payton really loved Erin's glasses! (Erin...send me some more pics...)



One more stop of the weekend was at our friend Elizabeth Anne's 1st Birthday party! Payton was sad to miss it, she was taking a nap at Granna Sue's - but we brought her a cupcake back.....well it was really for mommy....but EAK had a great time digging into her cake and it made me so excited for Payton's 1st b-day- but I am not rushing her! Jenn did such a great job with the party and was such a great hostess! Everything looked great! Just call her Martha Stewart!

Looks like you guys have been busy. Hopefully we will have lots more nice weather to enjoy. I love her ruffled pants...they will provide lots of cushion when she starts walking!
