The Perfect Afternoon






We sure are enjoying this warm weather! Yesterday was Sarah's perfect afternoon; lots of time playing at the park then milkshakes and dinner at Steak 'n Shake with Mama, Dada, Nana, and Bon Papa. Sarah even saw her friend Chloe from church at the park. We hope this warm weather is here to stay. No excitement on the baby front. I kept thinking that second children come earlier than firstborns but this little baby is nice and cozy and in no rush:-) We'll keep everyone posted!

Fun weekends!










It was a wonderful couple weekends with visitors. The last weekend of March, Gramma Sue and Uncle Stacy visited and the first week of April, we saw Aunt Carol, Uncle Pierre, Uncle David and cousins Neil & Preston. We had a blast with Uncle Stacy and Gramma Sue. Sarah loved all the birthday presents!! It was so nice of Gramma Sue, Uncle Stac, and Uncle Ty. We watched lots of basketball. Saturday night, Gramma Sue, Sarah and I picked up Greek food so we could all watch the Butler basketball game. We even had some chocolate chip cookie cake to celebrate Grama Sue's birthday a few days early. Sarah likes to dip her chips and enjoys the appetizers Mama set out. She is a great hostess and will always be sure to get drinks for everyone Sunday morning, we went to Hoglins and then the highlight was the Children's Museum. It was such a nice weekend. On Sunday, my friend Jennifer came over for dinner. Sarah just loved Jen. She kept calling Jen "mama's friend" and gave her lots of cheese and veggie sticks and some sparkling water. Sarah was excited to show Jen her room and the baby's room. When Jen left after dinner and some basketball, Sarah gave Jen a big hug. She waved goodbye from her bedroom window saying bye bye mama's friend.

The next weekend, on Friday afternoon, Aunt Carol, Uncle Pierre, and Grandma ("Gigi), came over for a visit. Sarah had such a nice time doing a puzzle (24 piece jigsaw) with Uncle Pierre. Saturday morning, I went up to the Carmel Police Dept. to have the baby's car seat installed. Then that afternoon, we went over to Grandma & Grandpa's to watch the game with the aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents, and great grandparents and to have dinner. It was a blast and a great Butler win on Saturday night in the Final Four. We stayed up at Glamma & Bon Papa's and enjoyed Bon Papa's biscuits in the morning. I wish I took more photos from the two weekends but these will have to do.

Sarah loves the park and does a little dance by the back door saying park, park, park when we say that we can go to the park. She keeps talking more and more and repeats just about anything you say. Loves to ask for more goldfish snack and tortillas. She loves having lollipops at Glamma's.

Any day now, we'll welcome baby tresize. I'm 38 1/2 weeks and my list of projects to complete before baby comes is about done.
