Pre-K Graduate

Last Friday my nephew, Tyler, graduated Pre-K.

We are so proud of him, he's such a smart little booger.

Here he is after getting his diploma!

The graduate & I

Right after his graduation I headed straight to the doctor's

office with Aleigha. She had a barky cough  that would

not stop. She had croup :( She was just getting over

that & Tuesday night she started running high fever so we went

back to the doctor & her white count was 30,000...way to high.

So this little bacterial infection has caused her to get a shot

yesterday & 1 again today. She's feeling much better this

afternoon & I'm so thankful. I hate when my monkey is sick.

Other than that it has been an uneventful week. I hope

everyone has had a better week than us, I'm looking forward

to a very lazy weekend!

New Blog Design

Thanks for the comments on my new blog design.

I won a giveaway for a blog makeover hosted by

Erin over at The Schuler Family and the makeover

was done by Kelly over at

Three Kids, A Mini-van & Alot of Love

Kelly does amazing work & I am so thankful

for my makeover. We all know I needed

it desperately! Thanks again Erin & Kelly!

Who Knew

Aleigha loves bath time

But Crayola bath drops make it that much better

Who knew colored water would make bath time
that much better!

Happy Mother's Day

Today I am so thankful for this little blessing,

bringing the joy of motherhood into my life.

I don't even remember what life was like

before motherhood. I don't think theres

any better feeling than being called Mommy!

I love you so very much Aleigha.

And then there's my Mom. I am so lucky and

blessed to have such an amazing mother.
I can count on her no matter what. I dont

know where I would be without her.

I love you Momma!

Happy Mother's Day to all you wonderfuly ladies.

I hope your day is as great as mine has been!

2 Year Check-Up

On Friday we headed to the doctor for

Aleighas 2 year check-up

(yes i know we are a month late)

She was being such a little ham once we got

back in the room and she was so

curious about all the babies she could

hear crying in other rooms.

She weighed in at 29 lbs. and was 34" tall,

she's in the 75th percentile for kids her age

My BIG girl!

She only had to the Hepatitis shot this go

around and she handled it quite well.

I think it has to do with the fact that she knew

we were about to leave & she could get a

sucker on the way out :)

She's growing way to fast that it kinda makes

me a little sick at times. I don't want to take

any time with her for granted. I have the summer

off before starting nursing clinicals in August so

I plan on spending all of my time with this

little monkey.

Happy Monday

What a weekend we had! On Friday night

we head to my parents for dinner, my brother

and nephew were there for the weekend so

Aleigha & Tyler got to play...until 11 pm...

she passed out on the way home.

Henry had a softball tournament on Saturday

so Aleigha & I headed back to my parents

to play a little.

They let Tyler ride the lawn mower & he wanted

to pull Aleigha in the wagon so bad, so we let him.

I left Aleigha and went home to get ready

for a crawfish boil some friends were having

and oh did we have fun. I don't think I've

laughed that much in a very long time.

On Sunday Aleigha came home early & went

spent the whole day out & about.

First we headed to the Boardwalk for a little

shopping. Here she is loving on Daddy.

(how cute is she with her little Dora purse)

I dont even bother bringing her stroller anymore

because she loves these little rent-a-cars.

We left there and headed to the park. The
water side opened up on the 1st & I forgot
so she didn't have her swimsuit on but it wouldn't
of mattered anyway. She would get close but
as soon as the water sprayed up she would
run right back to us. Maybe next time!

So we played in the sand instead.

Your going the wrong way monkey!

She had a fun day playing in the sun.

We had a little more shopping to do after we

left the park so needless to say we were

all a little tired by the time we got home.

I hope everyone is having a fabulous Monday!
