We had a great time last weekend. Charlie's work had low census (not very many babies in the NICU) so he was able to have the weekend off. VERY RARE for us. And I took a PTO day on Friday. So we had some great family time. We took the kids to the zoo Friday morning. We went to a smaller zoo in Gainsville, TX. It was the perfect size for Savannah. She loved it. She would peak through the exhibits and yell "I see giraffes, I see zebras" and then toddle like two feet and repeat all over again. To funny! She left with a cute stuffed giraffe:)
Above is the chapel...she is all ready to walk down the aisle. I sent his picture to her daddy, he was ready to cry! Baby C will be the ring bearer. Who knows if he will be pulled down the aisle or walking away!
We were so busy the day she got engaged with going to see the family and then I still needed to grocery shop. So I bought chicken nuggets from McDonalds on the way home for dinner. After Savi had eaten her portion (I had bought like 20 for 4.99 knowing Charlie could have the leftovers), I told her ok the rest is for daddy. I turned around for a second and this is what I found....
Guess someone felt like marking her territory for a later meal:)
We had a potluck for St. Patrick's Day at work last week. I found this cute recipe for cupcakes! I love how they turned out!
I need everyone's advice and best tips on teaching Savannah to be potty trained. It is that time and I feel like I don't know where to start. Help please:)
Baby Charlie started baby food:) He was so ready for it! We started with sweet potatoes and they were a hit! His doctor appointment is Monday, hopefully our doc isn't mad that we went ahead and started him on baby food. But he was just so hungry and gobbles his rice cereal down.
I took Tuesday off this past week and had a lovely day off with my family. We relaxed in the morning and got all rested up. We were taking Savi to a place in town called Going Bonkers! I was really excited to take her. I knew she would love it.
It is basically a huge maze climbing apparatus with slides, ladders, and other obstacles along the way. She was timid at first and not to sure, but after awhile she was a pro. They have a section blocked off for 1-3 year olds and adults can go in with them. It is super cheap to go too. Only $4.50 for all of us to get in:) Baby C cheered his sister on on the sidelines.
After we left Going Bonkers we went to Souper Salad. Charlie and I reminisced, as this was where we told his parents I was pregnant with Savi. We met them for dinner there, because it was one of the few places that sounded remotely good to me. I was so sick at the time. We had brought gifts for them to tell them the big news. Right before we told them, I went to the bathroom and was sick. Good times:)
This would be time just flying by. Baby Charlie turned 6 months on Friday! CRAZY! He will have his check up appointment sometime next week. He has made it very clear he is ready for baby food. He can hold his own bottle. And overall is just progressing like a good little boy!
Baby C turning 6 months means Savi is turning 2 1/2, since they were born the same week only 2 years apart. I'm 6 months away from a 3 year old and a 1 year old. That sounds so weird! Gotta run....gotta enjoy this moment before it passes me by!
Wednesday was so pretty. We had to get out and enjoy outside. I took Savannah on a walk in the push car and Baby C hung out in the pack. Savannah has the perfect pony tail right now. Long and a cute curl, with a pink bow of course:) I still haven't gotten her hair cut yet. I just don’t know why I would be doing it. Her hair is pretty even and super thick. Bangs have grown out almost completely. At this rate, Baby C will be getting a hair cut before his sister! HA
Baby C insisted on his cool shades:)
