Bring on the extremely busy month of May Part I

May is always a very busy time of year for us but this year with Alison finishing school, Momma starting back to work, having the new addition to our family, and preparing for summer break/dance recital...it was off the hook!!!! Thank goodness we enjoyed every.single.moment.....well maybe not the moment when Momma went back to work, but it's all good :)

Our gorgeous flowering crab tree....and quite the little poser Alison

Yes, my mom added olive oil to my scalp to moisturize it up and yes, she spike my hair like this and then took this gawd-awful picture!!! I love her anyways :)

Hawk-a-Mania martial arts demo...Alison broke that board like a pro!

We attended a Dolly tea party at the Wabash  County Historical Museum and we played bingo...this is our best "BINGO" face!

Mother's Day 2013...my heart couldn't be any happier!

Post bath snuggles!!!

I'm 3 months old!!!

Wrapping up the end of April

So we have tried very hard to give Alison one-on-one time and do special activities with her since Miss Ada has come along. Well Chris and Ali have talked for at least a year about having a fort overnighter in the living room. Well, the day finally came. 

Living room fort-check, blankets and pillow-check, popcorn and a movie-check, making a little girl as happy as can be-check!

It was a park day--complete with static electricity!

Climbing the web--she made it to the top this year!

Sporting her Red's gear--makes Daddy VERY happy!

Yes, I have an older sister and yes, she did this to me!!!

Does this picture really need a caption?!

Spring break 2013 and Ada's 2 months old....

We got invited to Chris' cousin Jean's baby shower in April and it happened to fall at the end of Spring Break so we thought what better timing than to make an overnighter in Chicago...it was good, hectic with a little one, but we enjoyed our time together as a family....

After the shower...we had a great time celebrating Jean and baby Plunkett...I am happy to report that baby Jaxson is here and healthy!!!

Hey guys, I'm 2 months old already....

Seriously, my mom thinks I'm adorable!!!

and this big sister of mine....ROCKS!!!

Easter 2013

We had a great Easter this year. We went to Easter Vigil and enjoyed a Easter morning brunch out and then relaxed at home for the rest of the day...we are very blessed!

Who doesn't love a little late March snow storm to practice our 'snow baseball'
