Personalized

300509
Alex and I were both shocked when we found this in a display at the drug store. We haven't seen anything with our little lady's name on it anywhere before this. So of course we bought it for her.

Early Birthday Part Two

240509
Today we first met up with a bunch of Alex's friends for brunch and then went out to meet his family and have birthday dinner, cake and gifts with them. Not sure what's left for the actual birthday tomorrow since this is the second day we've celebrated already!

Early Birthday Surprise

230509
It's Alex's birthday on Monday, but because my mom and dad are here, I took advantage of Alex's morning appointment, my mom's babysitting service and my dad's station wagon driving and carting and picked up Alex's gift today. We set it up on the deck for him and it took a good 15 minutes for him to notice it...and then he thought it was my parents and it was just out there temporarily! Hopefully this is the beginning of many yummy dinners!

Bottom Teeth

220509
The bottom teeth are in and Jocelyn is finally letting us see them. For the first little while she put her tongue over them all the time so no one could see (or touch) them. She also got to see what a plastic bag felt like for the first time...don't worry, she was sell supervised by Mommy, Grandma and Grandpa.

Strawberries Plus

210509
Every spring it seems I get excited about strawberries (although it seems to happen later each year)...this year the strawberries are exciting, but so is the addition of pineapple and mango too!

Shelf, Repurposed

180509
Jocelyn was obsessed with the books in the bottom shelf of the bookcase in our room. So we replaced them with something a little more Jocelyn friendly...some of her toys...we'll see what she does when she finds them tomorrow.

Pjs In The Park

170509
So, I gave Jocelyn a bottle of water to drink on the way to the park and she finished it really quickly...it's a warm day, so I thought she was just really thirsty. REALLY thirsty. We got to the park to play and it turns out the top wasn't screwed on the bottle very tightly and she was soaked from her armpits to her knees. She was wearing dark pink so we didn't notice it either. And she didn't complain once on the breezy walk to the park...she had to play in the park in her pjs because that's all I had in the diaper bag to change her into. So here she is in her pjs and sunhat.

Mother's Day Flowers

160509
Alex brought me some beautiful flowers for Mother's Day...this is all that's left and it's currently sitting in a drinking glass on the stove...because I cannot seem to find my little blue vase...oh to be completely unpacked and settled!

Begonia

Before I kill them, because I can't seem to keep begonias alive, ever, I thought I should get a quick picture!

Can't Talk, But Can Tell Us NO!

Baby J wasn't too happy to have her picture taken this afternoon. She would much rather have been chewing on the hippo's teeth or tail! She definitely let us know that she wasn't happy!!

Stranger In My Living Room

040509
Alex has a different work schedule than usual this week, so it was a nice change to see him sitting in our living room, hanging out when I went to bed. Oh how I envy people who work 9-5 all the time!
