Sunday Funday

    Well, today was more like Sunday LAZYday. We spent this Super Bowl Sunday relaxing at home! The kids actually slept in for us, so we didn't wake up until about 8:15. That's late for us because they are usually up by 7:30. We made a late breakfast and ate outside as Connor requested because it felt amazing on our patio with the sun shining on us.

 Post diaper change feet obsessing. Livie spent all day in her jammies.

School Days

     Our weekday mornings are so nice and slow, that is until we hit the 11:15 rush to get out the door by 11:30 to get Connor to school. One of Connor's favorite things to do with me lately is play Connect 4. He is getting really good. So usually while Livie is napping, or sometimes before, we play in the playroom. Today was no exception! He actually beat me a few times.

Scrub-A-Dub-Dub, Livie's-In-The-Tub

    Yesterday Olivia had her first bubble bath experience. I got the idea from a friend whose little girl is the exact same age, and knew I needed to try it with Livie since she loves the water. I added her Aveeno body wash to the tub for the bubbles and let her take it all in. She loved it. Take a look at those beautiful blue eyes I got to see staring back at me.

Meet Hammy

    Yesterday was a very exciting day for us, for Connor especially. He renamed January 27 as Hamster Day because it was the day he finally got to pick out his new hamster. Aaron and I decided we would get him one because he has been begging for one since his fish died a few months ago {R.I.P. Blue Rock}. We though it would be good for him and teach him responsibility. We talked to him about it on Wednesday night after dinner, and he was overjoyed. On Thursday I took him to the library and we checked out five books about hamsters and read them over the next few days. While he was in school on Thursday and Friday, I scoped out a few places for us to visit on Saturday. I wanted to have a general idea of what each pet store had so I knew where we needed to get what. We planned on visiting three pet stores before letting him decide on one, but we ended up only going to two because PetSmart had a really good selection and I knew Petco didn't.  Plus he fell in love with Hammy, his new long haired Syrian hamster.

My Smiley Girl

     While Connor was at school today I took a few pictures of Olivia in one of my favorite outfits of hers, and she was so smiley and giggly. I love photographing my babies, especially when they are loving it just as much as I am!  

 I see that smile sweet girl!
