Happy Mother's Day 2010

We had a great mother's day this year! The weather was a bit chilly, but, it felt great to be outside! We went to my mom's house and grilled and played with the kids. We can't believe how big Sweet Pea is getting!!! Can you believe how much she's grown since last year??? Click here to see Mother's Day 2009!

The Girl Loves Hardware Stores and Heavy Machinery!

Yesterday we had an appointment with the local school district's Parents as Teachers program. I love the lady who has been assigned to us, she'so nice and Sweet Pea loves her! One of the toys she brought with her was a book on farm equipment. Every time Sweet Pea looked at the book and came to a page with a picture of a tractor on it that girl went nuts! It was the funniest thing! I think its especially cool because my dad owned an excavation company that he built from the ground up - no pun intended! I guess her daddy and I never thought of even exposing her to things like that, and all the gifts she's ever recieved were either gender neutral or girly.

Its even more funny that after that we made a family trip to Home Depot to look at some floor lamps and Sweet Pea was in absolute heaven! I've never seen a kid so excited to be at a hardware store! She was squeeling with sheer delite and running up and down the isles with her arms straight out in front of her as her daddy and I chased behind. It was a sight to see!

Later that afternoon we went out to eat and across the parking lot there was some construction going on and a big Cat backhoe parked right there and Sweet Pea got sooooo excited! Needless to say, I'm making a trip to the toy store to get my baby girl some tractor toys!

18 Month Stats

Sweet Pea had her 18 month check up last week and here are the physical stats:

Height: 32.5 inches (75%)
Weight: 23 pounds (50%)
Head Circumference: 49 (95 - 97%)

The percentages mean that she is, for example, taller than 75% of other children her age. So, at this point, she's average weight, a bit taller, and has a huge head compared to other 18 month olds :)

Easter 2010

This Easter was sooooo much fun! Sweet Pea had her very first ever Easter egg hunt at her Nana's house! Sweet Pea picked right up on how that works! We gave her a basket and showed her where the eggs were and she went right to town and dropped the eggs in the basket! I swear she is so smart! Here's a few pics from the day's events:

Sitting pretty!
