Bradley's Visit

Miss Rebecca turned 32 on the 27th while I was out of town. The whole family came for a visit. Thankfully they stayed until Tuesday so they could come play Monday night. They brought dinner and we got to "play" with baby Evan. Clara woke up with a fat and bloody lip, looks like she put her tooth through her lip. She had blood all over her face and clothes. :/ Poor baby. Needless to say, between that and her troublesome teeth she wasn't herself. We all had fun and it was SO nice to see them all. Thank you for coming!!! Clara did give Evan her usual kiss, it just took a bit longer than usual.










Trip To NC - March 2015

It's been WAY too long since I've been to see Ana. I needed to get to her before this little guy came. I was nervous about traveling this far along in the pregnancy (31 weeks) with Clara alone. Clara is cutting some major teeth and her mood is hit or miss. Needless to say, it went quite well and I'm so glad I braved it.


Clara has been obsessed with watching planes go by, so you can imagine her excitement to walk on one! Here are her plane arms and her little voice is saying, "Zshooooooom!"

Ana had business in Tampa the day I flew in, go figure...those odds are quite slim! Theresa and Addi picked us up. Clara was a champ the entire flight up, mama almost puked on her head on the decent. I took Dramamine but with a squiggly baby on your lap I can't focus and breathe through the "hiccups" - it was close.

Addi lent her old doll house to Clara which Theresa had in storage. Ready to play!

Ana and I went into her work on Friday and Theresa stayed back with Clara who napped. Thank you Theresa. I got to see the warehouse and meet many of Ana's employees. I'm positive I don't want her job, too much stress!

Tybee, Ana's little cutie. She is so sweet. She runs around like a dog on crack when you first walk through the door, Clara gets stiff in fear but cracks up over it. Then she calms and snuggles.








We connected with Brandi and Elsa via phone. Look at those smiles!

Kate is the most brave momma I've ever known. She drove down to see us, 3 hour drive. It was so nice to see them all. I don't know how she does it. I will soon! Two babies running in opposite directions, yikes!

Theresa busted out some tunnels for us, FUN!


Bubble Guppies on demand!

A hi to dada!



Ana had friends over on Saturday so I was able to meet her closest friends! ;) Thankfully it was a nice day out, since it rained all day Friday!

"Zshooom!!!!!! Lots of planes going by!"

Kate captured this, ALL looking!!!!!!! How was it possible? Way to go Kitten, thank you!


Fun with Aunt Kate



Eli feelin my pain! ;)

Pouch time!

Thank you for making the trip Kitten!





Thank you Ana, Theresa, Eli and Addi for making such a "to do" about us coming and opening your home and BEDROOM to Clara and I! We love you.

March 2015 - Almost 27 months and 7 months preggers


Having fun at Aunt Tiffy's house...




Lunch! Silly Tyler!



Kissing cousins



Bubble bath!

I love wearing mommy's shoes!


Time for the beach. I haven't taken Clara to the beach in a while. She loves playing in the sand. It was so much fun. I look forward to this a lot this summer!







We're right across the street from Aunt Lisa's house here, she joined us! :) xo




Wow! Someone is so big! Andre used to take pics here each morning. It's been a while. She's gotten SO big! Just as goofy as ever!




Doe watches Clara on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Recently Doe's daughter Kate (who teaches at my school - how I found Doe!) went back to work so Clara gets to hang out with this cutie, Kingston, each day. I hope it's helping break her in for what's to come.


I told Andre how much fun we had at the park while he worked at home and we decided to abort and go to the park since it was too close to bedtime.

Watching some boys play rough, not sure what to make of it...


Let's climb! 


  




Thursday with Dada, her best buddy!


Dada takes his lil girl shopping, since mama HATES shopping!


Aunt Tiffy's again...



Silly Tyler was in the cold pool, then dancing/drying off and cracking up the girls.

Back to the beach, Friday night relaxing. I can't wait to have a glass of wine while she plays and our new mini sleeps. I dream big!




Plane!


My girl loves her hats!  She looks like such a big girl in this picture, stop growing little love!!! Pretty please! 



Tickling my belly button, feeling her brother kick, she's not really getting it but finds it funny.

Already a lover of this little guy.

Feeding her baby her baba.

Daddy scalped the grass, a spring necessity. Trimming all the palms! Clara loves to "help".



I caught a smile with her LOOKING! I didn't think this was possible these days!






My sweet baby. You've been PERFECT this entire weekend. You're so loving, you come over to me and kiss me and hug me for no reason at all. You like me to hold you but you're so very independent. You grab my hand and bring me to play with you. You're such a sweet girl to be around, I love every single moment I have with you. I love you. Thank you for being my perfect little girl.
