Easter Catch-up

What a fun Easter weekend we had spending time with family and friends! On Friday, Brian took his Grandpa and Payton to the zoo, and she loved getting to see all the animals. It was a crazy time trying to see everyone, but we made it work, and had a great time!





Payton opening her Easter basket from Granna Sue. She loved her new Pablo, Tasha, and her "mawn mow"...so cute!


Here is her basket from us, it was my basket as a little girl! She loved peeking over the table to see what was inside!

Pee-Pee in the Potty!!

Last night was so fun!! As most of you know, we have a potty for Payton for whenever she is ready to use it. It is just really in the bathroom for her to look at and get accustomed to. But we sit on it every now and then and look at books. Last night before bed we were sitting on it and she had a little success!! It wasn't much but she was surprised and I was so excited!!

"Look Mom! I did it!"

We will have more posts on this subject I am sure, but this one was the mile marker!

I am an idiot...with the best of intentions

Sunday I went to a shower for one of my friends, Katie. It was so fun, and she wanted pickles and ice cream! She is having a little girl in July, and already has Paige who is a little older than Payton. Since she is having another girl, I decided to make her something for the nursrey. So I painted her a canvas with a sweet verse on it....

The finished product...do you see anything wrong?? 5 people looked at it and said nothing...until Katie called me the next day and said..."Um, I love the verse, but you spelled it wrong.." WHAT???! Am I an idiot or what...that is why I tought pre-k. So, I will be making her another one!

Choo Choo!!

This weekend was WINDY! Brian's parents came up this weekend to spend some time with P and let me work on Monday. We went to the promanade on Saturday, and it was a wind tunnel! We were hoping for a fun day shopping with the girls, but it turned into me running into store after store (making some fun purchases along the way :)) and Sue walking P around in the stroller, and then they found the train! She rode it twice and had a blast waving to all the people and blowing them kisses! Such a fun and beautiful day! I am glad we went when we did, because Sunday was horribly cold, and wouldn't have been near as fun!

Down we go!

We went to the best park last week with our friends the Allens and Shulers. It was so fun for both Payton and me! I can now just sit on the bench and let her play and not worry about her falling down or needing help! She loves going down the slides and we can't wait for the weather to warm up so we can go back!

More Bunnies!

Here are some more pics from the bunnies! The second picture really captures her thoughts about the whole ordeal! She wasn't so sure! We also got to take some with our friend Presley! She liked the bunny a little more...oh well, there is always next year!

 

 

 

The Easter bunnies have arrived!

For the second year now, we have taken pictures with bunnies right before Easter! I can't believe how much she has grown since last year! Even though she was a little hesitant of the bunny, she sure took some cute pics!
