I'm back! :)



I'm back! (Does a dance similar to the potty dance lol) I've really been slacking on my blogging. It's just been crazy busy this past month with people being sick, places to go and things to do. I am going to try catching up in the next few days.

Anyways, last night was pretty rough for us. Bella was just miserable. As soon as Matt or I layed her down, she started crying again. The only way she wanted to sleep was upward on her knees leaning over my back or stomach and I'm a side sleeper, so as you can imagine I woke up pretty sore. :/

If that wasn't heartbreaking enough, while laying over my back, she would pat me as if I weren't feeling well. She is so darn cute! The Tylenol only helped for a short period of time before she started whining again. I just kept telling her it was ok and caressed her as much as I could. My poor Bella boo. :(

This morning I took her to the doctor figuring it was an ear infection and I was right. She's starting to feel better now that she has a dose of antibiotics in her thank God.

On a happier note, the livingroom is painted and the refridgerator is in and stocked up. It's so nice to have an ice maker and filtered water. Now I can be green and stop wasting all those water bottles. We hope to get the dishwasher in sometime this week to. I love income tax season!

Maybe next month we will get Bella's room painted and I will have her toddler bed picked out. I'm thinking of painting her room the bright purple I hoped Alaina picked over the bright green that's on her walls now, but I'd be lying if I said that I still don't care for the green. Either way it's going to need painted along with our bedroom, because there are these 2 inch holes along the windows where they sprayed the insulation in, so I want to cover those up.

It's supposed to be in the 60s towards the end of the week! I love the snow, but it overdid it's welcome.I'm excited for Spring this year. I had a blast taking the girls to the park, on picnics, zoo, playdates, swimming, playing outside, on walks etc. Bella is more aware of whats going on now and walks like a pro, so she can join in more this year. Bring on the sun! I don't want to see that white stuff anymore!

These pics are from the past few weeks.

Happy 4th Birthday Lexie!

Last Saturday, the 26th of February we went to my cousin's daughter's 4th b-day party. It's always so nice to see our loved ones, so I look forward to these opportunities.

Grant and Steph are always so welcoming and the girls just love playing with Dylan and Lexie. Lexie looked adorable as always and really seemed to be enjoying her party. There are always a bunch of kids for the girls to play with and they even got to meet Grant's pet snake. I passed on petting it lol.

Thanks guys for inviting us and again Happy 4th Birthday Lexie! I'm so glad that you liked your dress and princess tent. We love you <3
