Day 31 - Pretty Pink Toy!

A mommy friend was thinning out her daughter's toys and was getting rid of this so I decided to get it for Scarlet. I would necessarily go out and buy something this gender specific but this is so cute! Scarlet's still too small for but I propped her up with a blanket for a photo op!

Day 30- Fun Mail

It's always nice to find a package in the mailbox mixed in with all the crappy bills and junk.
This is something that I ordered from www.babysteals.com (love this site, among others and NO, I don't have a problem...LOL) and totally forgot about it. When the package arrived I had no idea what was inside but I knew it had to be something fun!
I kind of feel like a horrible mum putting this thing around her head but it's not too tight and it looks SO incredibly adorable.
It came with 4 interchangeable flowers and one headband. I'm pretty sure I can find more headbands somewhere that would work with these flowers.
What a dolly!

Finally caught up

I'm sure there's a way of changing the dates on my posts but I can't figure it out. I think I'm finally caught up to date now with my 365 pics. The dates are wrong but the order is right!

Day 29 - Grandma & Grandpa

As I said in an early post, we are very fortunate to have family that lives so close.
After dinner tonight, Declan called Grandpa & Grandma and asked if they would come over for a visit. Grandpa NEVER says no so they came by.
Declan took Grandpa down to the (unfinished) basement right away to play hockey and remote control cars.....he's getting pretty good at using them too! They always have so much fun together. I get a kick out of watching them!
Grandma (my mom) stayed upstairs with me and Scarlet. We chatted and while she had a snuggle with her newest grand angel (that's what she calls them!)

Day 28- My little chef

Declan has been using is play stove more often lately. He decided to make me breakfast for dinner. It's really great watching him use his imagination while pouring and stirring . He made me a lovely meal!

Day 27 - Tea For Two

Declan loves to play tea party (yes, I am aware that he's a boy) and now he's very happy to have someone else to play with. He served Scarlet tea and biscuits after his nap yesterday afternoon.
I said it before and I'll say it again, I'm so glad he loves her!

Day 26 - Our Birthday

Saturday was OUR birthday. My birthday and Adam's birthday are one day apart so on that day, we celebrate them both.
This year we were suppose to go tubing but the weather was a little too cold for our liking plus, I'd had a yucky cough for awhile.
Instead, we decided to go bowling...I know, we're old! It was fun and I was horrible as usual. Adam used to bowl in a league so he was being cocky and kicking our asses.
A friend made the birthday cake for Adam in the shape of a ping pong table...his nickname is King Pong (among others). It was pretty delicious and really cute!
After bowling we went to a local pub that we used to hang out at pre-babies. It was nice to get out with friends. Some live so close but we still don't get to see them as often as we should.
I wish I didn't have that one extra drink at the end of the night. It's not so easy caring for a baby when you have a headache!

Just want to add that last week when we went out for dinner, I asked the server (at a pub we go to often) how old she thought I was. She guess I was 7 years younger than I am!!!!!! I guess she wanted a good tip..LOL
