Okay....so many pictures....got a little crazy!

"Look at my new outfit!"

"I can comb and brush my hair at the same time!"

Oh, yea...sipping on some juice and loving this weather!

Vvvvvrrrrrrrooooooommmm!

"Now, how do I get these things back on?"

Our tree starting to bud!

Seriously, how many bows does a girl need???

We had fun doing this!

"Can we take the bows out now?"

Found an old camera and she loves taking pictures!

Like Momma...like daughter...

"This is so cool!"

"Cheeeeese!"

"Okay, Momma...stay right there..you look funny!"

All in a days work....

Ahhhh....I just love being a mom.....

Fun at the park!

Can you get a better smile than this??

Lydia has a really hard time with stairs..but we have been practicing and there she goes...all by herself!! My baby is growing up!!

Happy St. Patricks Day...and other items....

Happy St. Patricks Day everyone!!

My friend had posted this video on her Facebook and I loved it! It is a great explaination of St. Patrick.

Check out this link! It is around 8 minutes long, but worth it! It's by Veggie Tales. :)

Since today is a feast day, (since we have been in Lenten Season--we have given up meat (except fish), sweets, and coffee) we are going to be eating good!! On today's menu, I will be fixing Guinness-marinated London Broil with Rosemary and Garlic, Mushroom Guinness Gravy, and Rustic Colcannon. Yummy!! I can't wait!!

On another note, John and I watched a movie yesterday (I know..amazing, huh?) It's called Fireproof. We had heard from some folks that it was really good. Now, in the beginning of the movie, it is a bit cheesy, and long winded; however, PLEASE stick with it. It is a great movie with a wonderful message. It reminded me of how good God has been to John and I in our own marriage. I highly recommend it.

And finally, some dear friends of ours gave Lydia a play kitchen. It was their daughter's and she has outgrown it. We cleaned it up and she loves it!! We placed it in our kitchen so when Momma cooks, Lydia cooks. I love that too!! My little Chef Lydia! Here are some pictures we took yesterday of her playing. Seriously, she is too cute!

The day in Newport, Kentucky

It was a beautiful day in Newport, KY. This sculpture was in front of the Fish Market.

"My future is so bright..I gotta wear shades!"

NiNi, Lydia, and cousin Morgan

Lydia jamming with some folks inside Newport Mall.

These guys were awesome! They had a bunch of instruments for others to play along with them. Lydia really enjoyed this!

Lydia checking out all the instruments that were available! She wanted to play with each one!

We had lunch at this Irish Pub in Newport. It was awesome. Although, I think I ate fish/chips too soon (since having the stomach flu)...I got sick a bit later... :(
