Playing Outside

After several days of it being cold, we were finally able to get outside for a little while the other day. Tillie Ann loves to be in her walker and stroll around the garage and on the driveway. It had rained and the driveway was a little muddy. Guess where she "walked to"? You got it right to the mud.
Doesn't she look so guilty! She takes after her mommy. :)
Before the mud. Gotta love those little feet.

My New Play Set

This past weekend we found a deal on a play set for Tillie Ann. I will post the process of building this extravagant thing as Buddy and his Daddy work on it. It says on the directions 8-10 hours for two people. We will see! This is what it looked like before they ever started working! Here is the first night of work. Look who is also helping!! She is so excited. I'll keep you posted on the rest of the process.

Easter 2009

Easter was an exciting day full of church, family, and a lot of giggles. The day started off with daddy going to sunrise by himself because Tillie Ann didn't sleep well at all. I think she was so excited about the Easter bunny or it might have been the tooth that she is cutting. Who knows!!! When Buddy got home from church the Easter bunny had arrived. Tillie Ann was so excited to see all the things that she had gotten. Buddy and I had a little talk with the Easter bunny and decided to get her a pearl bracelet for her first Easter. So, tucked away in a little rectangle box was the smallest pearl bracelet that the jeweler had. It is so precious! Then we went to church and had a wonderful service. Then off to Granny Ham and Daddy Jack's for the annual Easter pictures and lunch. We enjoyed spending time with family that we hadn't seen in a while. Here Tillie Ann is with her BB, her cousin Makenzi and the family picture. After we finished hiding eggs, we left and went to The Sweat's. We had a wonderful Easter!!

Not Me Monday

Welcome to Not Me! Monday! This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.
1. I did not play like I didn't hear Tillie Ann rustling in her bed looking for her pacy just so the hubby would go put it in her mouth for her. I would never do that.
2. I did not slip in the buggy at Wal-Mart 2 new shirts when the hubby was not looking. I would not try to hide things.
3. I did not eat Tillie Ann's veggie puffs for my snack because they are low in cals and fat grams and she didn't get a single one. I would never do that. (She did have other puffs).
4. I would never put Tillie Ann in the bed with me so I could get a little extra sleep.
5. I would never fall asleep in church because of too much fun the night before. That is not something I would do.
6. I did not dress my child in the same undershirt that she slept in the night before to go to Mrs. Linda's. That is not gross.
7. I would never allow my child to chew on the corner protectors that I had just put on just because she would cry if I took it away. Not me !

Overalls, Sunglasses, and Daisy

Aren't they so cute. Today we had some errands to run. I dressed Tillie Ann in her overalls and then took her in the living room for Buddy to watch so I could get dressed. Well, when he cam out of the closet guess what he was wearing. Yes, can you say, OVERALLS. Well, I don't have overalls or I would have been in them too. Then we went to Wal-Mart and Tillie just had to have some sunglasses. WE got a pack of 5 for only $1.00. (Just in case they break or get lost) On the way home the sun was in her eyes so I put her glasses on her and this is how she was taken out of the car seat. TOO CUTE.

Disregard the messy garage. It is an ongoing cleaning process. This is Tillie Ann's new 4 leg friend Daisy. She is the neighbors dog who loves Tillie Ann and Tillie Ann loves her. She will sit in her high chair and look out the backdoor window to see if she is out there. Here They are loving on one another.

Date Night... Well Prom Night :)

The hubby and I always try to have a date night once a month and this month just happened to be the night he had to chaperon the Prom. We were able to do this last year, but we waited too late to go eat anywhere nice so this year we made up for it. The hubby made reservations for us at Ruth's Chris and I arranged for a babysitter (i.e. Pop "I" and BB). I know it is silly but I was really excited about going. I really think it was just being able to get away with the hubby. Anyways, we had some pictures made at home and said our goodbyes and headed to eat. When we got to the restaurant we sat down and the assistant waiter came by and asked us if we wanted a bottle of spring water or sparkling water. Of course, not having been to this nice of a restaurant in a long time, we took the bait and got the bottle of water (we didn't know that they were $6.00 a bottle). We order our food and began to talk about how nice the place was when there was a couple was sat next to us. The same situation too place, but the couple said "no we will just take regular water. NOTE: The hubby and I had just gotten a SECOND bottle of water. Can you say: WOW. So the hubby proceeds to tell me that I better finish the whole bottle of water before we leave. Oh yeah by the way, the water was bottled by nestle`. We got our food and can I say that it was the best steak and shrimp that I have ever eaten. Then came dessert. I can't even begin to describe the sensation that my taste buds went through. After I finish my bottle of water we paid our bill and made our way to the Prom.
HOW MUCH!!

At the Prom, we manned our station and didn't allow students to go out the door that we were working. Can I say that dancing has changed since I went to a Prom 9 years ago?! There were so many people on the dance floor that you couldn't squeeze through to the middle. After a wonderful night of watching kids dance and having a good time, we went home to our sleeping little girl. Oh yeah by the way, I am not as young as I thought I could be, I feel asleep on the trip back home. :) OH WELL.
