Keeping Busy

We've been keeping busy with little things. I can't believe how quickly the time is passing with two little ones. I don't feel like we are doing a whole lot, but the days are flying by. This last weekend we attended the annual Czech Picnic. There aren't any other kids Addy's age, but she always seems to do well. Plenty of people to give her attention and feed her fruit and goodies. She enjoyed playing at the park and snacking throughout the day. Of course, I snapped some photos.






Today we got the cutest little tee-ball stuff from Target and Addy was very exited to come home and play catch with me. I am in love with the miniature pink Easton gear. I dug out my old beat up glove and she couldn't get me outside fast enough. She is actually very good at catch. She has a great arm for a little tyke and great aim too. I'll definitely be signing her up for tee-ball soon.

Springtime Stuff

The girls are both finally back to good health and Addy went back to school yesterday. I have my fingers crossed that we can avoid sickness until it warms up and these pesky colds and viruses stop spreading.

Ainsley is working hard to accomplish some big milestones. Her two bottom teeth have slowly been working there way to the surface and she spends much time gnawing on anything she can in hopes that they'll just pop through already. I myself like the gummy baby smile and wouldn't mind some more time without the teeth. However, I do not wish for her to endure any more discomfort any longer than necessary. She is also working on sitting and crawling, simultaneously. She is much more interested in the ability to get moving. It wont be long until she figures it out, she's getting awfully close. Some recent pictures of her scooting around the house:




Tasting the floor..

Addy has recovered from her ear infection and the nasty virus she caught and has been doing her best to keep me on my toes. She refuses to let me get any nice pictures of her, which is why I have none to post. She is extremely sassy lately and I figure I will wait it out, rather than try to force her to cooperate in regard to photos.

I've also been working on a big project myself. Amongst spring cleaning the entire house and simplifying everywhere possible.. I finally got to work on my messy office! We need it to double as a guest room and have been working on ideas to maximize the space.. Although some final touches are lacking, the room is near complete. I am so excited and relieved that it is finally clean and organized. When it's complete I can take pictures of the whole room. For now, here is a peek at my new happy place:







On a more sad note..my grandmother passed away yesterday. Ainsley and I were able to go to Tucson a few weeks ago to celebrate her 85th birthday! It's quite sad but I am really glad we got to see her and I'm glad her pain and suffering is over.
