Just a Quick Post...

because I need to get in the bed! Sunrise service is going to come early in the morning!! I just wanted to put up a few pictures that make me smile!!

Ginger while she was hunting Easter eggs at a birthday party. She was on a mission to find the most eggs!!

My high school group of friends and our babies. (I desperately need a tan!! Who has the time with a toddler??)

I often leave out my main squeeze! Love him!!

Big Girl Bed

Well, we are officially in a big girl bed tonight. I have to admit that of all the milestones that Ginger has reached this one has pulled at my heartstrings the most. I guess saying "bye bye" to a baby bed means that there is no longer a baby in the house. Sniffles!! My fingers are crossed that she will sleep through the night like a baby!! Pun intended!!!

P.S. You're crazy if you don't think that I will sneak into her room and take at least a couple dozen pictures of her sleeping in her new bed!!

What a Difference a Year Makes!!

We've spent a day camping with family for the last two years during spring break. I cannot get over how much GB has grown!! She is quite a character and amazes me every single day!!

Spring Break 2010

Spring Break 2011

(Does anyone else notice how unstable MS weather is?? Last year she was bundled up, but this year it was t-shirt and shorts all the way.)

Spring Break!!

Spring break is finally here!! Woo hoo!!! (In other words, I have time to blog.) No big plans here for this break, but that is alright with me. Seems like we are on the go all the time, so I have appreciated this slow week!! I hope you are enjoying this beautiful weather!!

Here are a few pictures of recent outings. The older she gets the wilder she gets, which makes it almost impossible to catch pictures of her.

Ginger Belle and Mommy!! She looks completely disgusted with me, but I still love this picture!

Ginger's Three Obsessions

Finding time to blog these days is a rare thing!!

Ginger is obsessed with three things these days:
1. sausage and biscuits!- don't ask me because I can't explain...
2. water fountains- We pass two of these on the way out of daycare everyday, so I usually end up carrying her out of the building kicking and screaming.
3. her pink princess potty- We got a nice surprise Valentine's night in her potty! We have not pushed the issue at all, but for some reason she is fascinated with all things toilet related!

I'm pretending that her new obsessions make her a well-rounded child :)

Check out the shoes! She says they "parkle!"


The weather lately has been beautiful, so we have been taking full advantage of it by playing outside a lot.

Growing Up

My child is growing up, and it's so hard to believe!!

Here are just a few things that she is into these days:

• Mickey Mouse Clubhouse- her favorites are Mickey (of course), MeMe Mouse, Daisy Duck, and Goosey Dog (other wise known as Goofy)
• Elmo- Is it okay if I say he is totally annoying but totally worth it because he can hold her attention for a long time?
• Speaking in phrases (and pretty good ones might I add!)- She called me the other night from my parents and said, "I miss you good!" Be still my heart!! :) She will repeat anything and everything you say, so be careful!!
• She hates being in a wet or dirty diaper. I fear this could be the beginning of the dreaded potty training. She will come to me and say, "I nasty." Not my favorite thing for her to say, but it gets the point across.
• Frosty!! Yes, it is after Christmas, but the girl is still obsessed with this snowman. Help!!!
• Dancing!! My favorite times with her are cranking up one of Mercy Me's albums and dancing in the kitchen. She's so much fun!!
  

one Sunday morning before church

In just three short months she will be 2!! Unbelievable!!

I'm So In Love!
