April 2015

Where did April go? It flew by, here are some highlights...



Daddy doesn't want a pool fence around the pool. Mommy can't live, sleep, ever be at ease without one. Part of giving Shalimar away was what Andre asked for if I were to get a pool fence. Not really apples to apples there but my child's safety comes above all else. The guy that put up the fence Summers at Rushford Lake, small world! He found it crazy I used to lifeguard there.


Buying a recliner for mommy and baby, Clara loving running around in the store...

In our pool, a bit chilly, she doesn't seem to mind

A dip with daddy after a swim lesson. He trades mulch for swim lessons with a buddy of his, for his daughter. She goes to my school, her name is Athena, she's 3. 



So, not because we have a fence, but because I care about Andre's happiness, and my own...I can't deal with the complaining anymore. We found a home that Shalimar was welcome in. She didn't last five days, I wasn't shocked. I do think she would have come around but Goldie, the nice lady willing to give this kitty a chance couldn't handle how stressed out Shalimar was decided she needed to come home to her mommy. I was just adjusting to life without her. I tried Andre, I'm sorry it didn't work out for you.




Elsa pumped about shopping with mommy with her first ponytail.

Another Thursday at Home Depot with Daddy

Andre said "Oops-a-daisy" and Clara found it amazingly funny. I think he has a video he has yet to share with me.

Bye bye airplane







Working in the yard with dada

Andre just created this portion of the yard. I need to get a picture of the final product. Great work dada, it looks great!

This side of the house too.


Sidewalk chalk time





Baby cousin's first birthday. Yummy Tyler.


Birthday Boy

Clara was so happy playing with her balloons




33.5 weeks


 Yummy




Mommy jumped in so baby boy in the belly was part of the picture, I couldn't quite get Clara to the side to show my belly much, but he's there. COUSINS! 


Daddy taking Clara for her first real dip, boy it's chilly! She doesn't mind. She wanted to be dunked, daddy asked. She never says yes and she did, so daddy took her under a couple times. Although choking on the water, she seemed to like it! 


Went to see Grandpa and daddy is blowing bubbles.

Grandpa's pool is much warmer







Kristopher came too!!

Elsa enjoying her swing and some spring weather!

Clara loves mowing lawn with daddy, even when he takes her head off in the palm.

Dada laughing after accidentally walking her through the big palm frond

Dinner with the ladies, a pic of my darling Lisa and I



Stop growing sweet girl!

Car wash with mommy

Loving play dough, Clara knows her shapes when I make them and ask...star, heart, butterfly, square, and we're working on the oval.

Bib for her drool. Another big tooth coming in .

My class tie-dyed shirts. They turned out great. We were looking forward to Andre bringing Clara in for a picture but he's not staying home with her on Thursdays anymore. I'm trying to think of a way to have her come in on field day for a picture. The kids were so sad when I said she may not be coming for a class picture.

Clara loves Jumbo Bear more and more.

Treated myself to a pedicure, baby boy blue!!
