Spring Break

Ellie's spring break was last week so we headed down to the beach.

This was Annie's first beach trip. She did NOT like the drive down or back but she loved, loved, loved the beach. 

The weather was pretty cool so we found some new and different places to explore. 

We went to the zoo in Gulf Shores which was really cool. They had a lot of animals and you were able to feed a lot of them too...Ellie thought that was extra cool!

We also went to Gator Alley! 

They had over 450 alligators that had been rescued. 

Ellie was able to hold a gator and we got to throw food o them too....and they ate it!

We will have to make another trip back there!

The last day we finally made it to the beach.

It was really cool and the water was COLD but Ellie played in it like it was the middle of July.

We finally had to pull her out and bring her upon when she started turning blue! Haha!

Here are some pictures from our fun week!

Springtime fun!

We had been enjoying this spring weather until the cold weather made us wonder if it was really springtime or not! We are ready for spring weather to come and stay.

Teeth!

Getting new teeth is such hard work!

Little missy is getting 5 new ones all at the same time!

She will be ready to eat anything in a few weeks.

Picture Preview

Last week Kim took 6 month and 3 year pictures for us at the Botanical Gardens.

I knew they would be wonderful. They always are but I could not wait to see them!

Here is a preview of them!

Spring Carnival

The spring carnival came to town last week and we just had to take Ellie and Annie to visit.

Ellie had lots of fun riding all the rides that we was tall enough to ride and Annie had lots of fun watching her big sis!

Disney Live

A few Friday nights ago, all the dads from small group took the kids to Disney Live.

Ellie said it was lots of fun and she loved seeing two Mickeys ( Mickey and Minnie), Donald and Pluto. Matt said Ellie had fun but I was glad it was over :)

Here are some pictures of their Daddy/ Daughter date.

Cousin time

Fun cousin time!

Ready for Springtime

It's trying to act like spring around here....

And so we have been trying to soak it all up.

I am ready for the spring weather to come and stay....PLEASE!

Jamboree

Aunt Em had her very last jamboree last weekend and so we took a quick trip down to Montgomery to watch. Ellie was just amazed at the whole thing. She loved the music being SO loud. She just kept looking over at us like...I really love this but is this ok!?! She loved the dancing too and all of the characters she got to see. She got to meet Ariel and told me about it no less than 50 times this week.

You did great aunt Em!!

Big Girl

Annie had her first big girl ride in the buggy at our home away from home Target!

She looks pretty proud...don't you think?

6 months...today!

Today 6 months ago, my sweet Annie Morgan came into this world.

I love that little bit more than I could have ever imagined.

Happy 1/2 Birthday to my sweet fanny Annie!

Here are some thing we want to remember about you at 6 months

- your sweet smile. It just makes me so happy to see your sweet face light up.

- your sweet little baby feet and hands. They are so soft and I want to kiss them all day long!

- how you get so excited when see something new. You just get excited all over and I think it's so funny.

- your new funny little growl. You had been talking and babbling but now it is more of a growl...but it makes me laugh.

- how you love you swing. Just like your big sis!

- your pretty, dark head of hair. It's so soft and sweet.

- all the sweet rolls on your legs. You are so soft and sweet and I just love holding you and cuddling with you.

- how you love to eat. You really like everything and your daddy says you get that from me :)

We love you so much little bit. 

I cannot believe how fast your are growing. It makes my heart happy and sad at the same time. Before I know it you will be 1!!
