Molly's Visit

It's always a blast when Molly visits. Ivy got some quality Auntie time while I got some work done for the Vintage Mkt coming up this weekend. We worked on plans for a trip in October (we're thinking Peru!), had a Modern Family marathon, soaked up some sun, and squeezed in a trip to Last Chance on the way to the airport.

She tries so hard to get that frog!

Haha! Thanks for the new pacifier Aunt Molly

Oh-So-Kissable Cheeks

I love this picture. Pure joy :-)

Sometimes it still blows my mind that she's here!

We prayed for her and have been blessed beyond our wildest dreams. Ivy you are our sunshine.

Teething?!

It's so fun to shop for Ivy, too fun.

Good thing I love a good bargain... got these today: $8 total!

Liamolly sweaters are expensive at Anthropologie.

I think we need to live somewhere cooler because lil hats and sweaters are the cutest!

Pooh Dance

Ivy cracks up at Daddy's silly songs.

Her Winnie the Pooh onesie inspired this one... 

I love her little giggle!

It was a fun, productive weekend. We finished up taxes finally and organized Ivy's clothes. It's hard to believe just a couple months ago she wore some of the ity bitty jammies we boxed up!

We don't get many opportunities to wear hoodies or sweaters in AZ,

so I loved the cool weather weekend.  I did some baking and we spent a lot of time outside.

We went to the park to play football & basketball,

so Ivy had to show off her shades for Uncle Dougie.

Ivy and I went to Hissyfits Hullabaloo, a realy cute outdoor craft show.

I couldn't resist this skirt even though it'll be a while until she wears it.

And Ivy got a doll, just her size.

Hoppy Easter

We had a fun weekend spending time with friends. We are so blesed to have such great friends!! The Priestleys came over Saturday night for a sleepover. We always end up staying up really late and laughing until it hurts!

Here is Ivy with their sweet girls, Norah & Maryn.

On Sunday we went to the Rogalski's & the Holt's.

Us with Megan, Casey, and Henry.

Henry painted an egg for Ivy :-)

She loves her bunny from Great Aunt Phyllis

We hope you had a wonderful Easter!

Time to play!



Week with Grandma

We had so much fun with Grandma Debbie in town! Ivy is growing like a wildflower - this week I feel like you could see her get bigger everyday.  She's now in the 57th percentile for weight and the 87th percentile for height. She is noticing little things like the ridges on her bottle, and she's learned how to blow raspberries. She laughs and squeals a lot and loves rolling. Here are some more pictures from the week:

 Ivy and Grandma went for many walks, enjoying the beautiful weather.

Adam often feeds Ivy her first bottle. I love when I wake up to them cuddling on the couch.
