New Friends

The other day we ran into Old Navy and I was so happy I had a camera with me. Wes was looking at the shirts and I noticed Arilynn go over to the mannequin and start holding his hand. She then proceeded to have a conversation with him. I told her it was time to go and she said, "Bye, Sweetheart!!!" LOL

She has always wanted to hug the little girl and pet the dog every time we go in. She cracks me up!!
She makes me laugh all the time! If I could freeze her in time, I would.

Egg Hunt

She was so excited to hunt for eggs!!! She would not hold still for a picture. It stopped raining for a few minutes and we had a lightening fast egg hunt. (So ready for some sunshine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
 She kept telling us she was hunting "chirpies." She knows it's a bird or an egg, but likes her version better.

Because He Lives

She didn't want Mommy to sing along with her, so we only got part of the song. She has a great memory. Last night I heard her quoting Adventures in Odyssey. Maybe that's where mine has gone...it transferred at birth?!?! :)

Easter Finery

 This little booger is enough to make Mommy pull her hair out trying to take pictures!! :)


We finally got a family picture about 9:00 or so. Thus, we look awesome! :)

DIY Wall Decor

I saw this picture on Pottery Barn's website and liked what I saw:
Look closely. It's the teacher coming out in me.

Yup, it's the alphabet. 

I, however, did not want to make 26 frames, so I combined several letters. 

Scrapbook paper comes in handy for many things! :)
 
I still have to add another coat of spray paint to the frames, but my ADD kicked in and I wanted to see what everything would look like. :)
Map out how the pictures should be hung:

I convinced my tired husband that he would do a much better job at hanging 50 bazillion frames (I'm sure it seemed that many) than I would. 
I love it! Arilynn loves ABC's, so it's perfect!...and cheap! :)
Please forgive the English error of writing in several tenses. This prego brain does not feel like correcting herself!!!! How's that for being a teacher?!?! :)

32 Weeks

This picture is enough to keep me humble!!!! :( It was the end of the day, I was super tired, and wow! that shirt makes me look monstrous. It really is cute on the hanger. HA
