Take me out to the ball game


We ventured out tonight to our first Razorback Baseball game this season. It was a beautiful day here today, so we thought it would be the perfect night to be outside. Turns out, the temperature was perfect, but it was a tad bit windy (and by "a tad bit", I mean if you weren't sitting in your chair, it would blow away!). Oh well, it was still lots of fun and the sunset was beautiful, as you can see in the picture below. Plus, the Hogs were winning when we left.

Scarlett is walking all over the place now.

Casey juggling both girls...quite a handful.

Rug for Sale

I thought this was a funny picture...We are selling our rug, which I still love by the way, but apparently it doesn't provide the proper footing for playing Golden Tee!?! Anyways, Christian took some pictures of it to list on EBay and you'll notice Daisy admiring it. She has never really paid much attention to this rug, but apparently, as you can see from the second picture, she loves it, too. We couldn't find her anywhere last night until we finally spotted her curled up inside the folded up rug.

No April Showers here

We had another great weekend. Friends from Magnolia came up this weekend for a wedding. Hadleigh loved playing with their daughter, Olivia. Saturday, we went to Razorfest and enjoyed being outside on such a beautiful day. That night, the adults went to the wedding, while the girls had a fun night at home. Don't worry, we left Daisy in charge!

Hadleigh loved Olivia's bunny slippers.

Yeah, a night out!
Hadleigh and Daisy are having lots of these private conversations lately. I wish I knew their language.
Another crawling attempt...

"Why am I not going forward?"

"Now I'm getting somewhere."
Lessons from an inexperienced mom:
Look very closely and you'll see, it is not a good idea to hold your baby like this.

Party Girl

Hadleigh has been quite the party girl the past 2 weeks. She has been to 3 birthday parties in 2 weekends. Last weekend was Scarlett's 1st birthday and Spencer's 7th birthday. Hadleigh had a wild time at both parties and even tried a bite of icing when I wasn't looking. This weekend we celebrated Doc's 70th birthday in Little Rock. It was great to see lots of family and friends, plus enjoy the perfect weather.
I'm also proud to announce that Christian ran (and finished!) his second 5k this weekend. He did the Race for a Cure with a buddy of his. I've been trying to get him to run with me for years now, but there were always excuses... Unfortunately, I did not get to run this one with him (I didn't think it would be much fun pushing my huge jogging stroller among 17,000 other runners), but I hope there will be others we can do together.
Below are some pictures from the past few weeks (mostly this weekend). Excuse the crazy layout. I'm not sure what I did, but I can't fix it without having to reload the pics, which takes forever.








Ready for Scarlett's Party...40 degrees in April is just wrong!





Doc and Landon with another amazing cake--Doc is going to Russia in just a few weeks! As you can see, we are still working on the crawling.
She tries to get in position, but she won't kick her legs
out to get going. It's going to happen soon...I feel it
Happy 70th Birthday, Doc!















I think her baby has the Shaken Baby Syndrome now

She still loves driving her car, especially outside.

We're Back

Vacation is officially over...back to reality. Hawaii was beautiful, relaxing, fun, and just overall amazing. Christian returned with a nice tan while I came back with my usual splotchy burn. I really don't understand how someone can tan so easily when they stay under an umbrella the entire time! We spent the week on a small island off of Maui called Lanai. There wasn't too much to do except enjoy the beauty of the island and sip cold drinks by the beach...it was PERFECT. We got some much needed rest (until the red-eye home) and did surprisingly well without Hadleigh, though we missed her tons. Hadleigh had a blast with my parents. My mom taught her Pat-a-Cake--she puts her hands together and says "Pa-Caa"--so cute. She also got her first car which she LOVES to ride around on--watch out Daisy. Below are some pictures from our trip and Hadleigh's week. Not sure what this face means, but I love it

"Check out my 2 pearly whites."

This plane was entirely too small for my liking! Anyone who knows me, knows I don't do well with any type of motion. I'll just say, we landed just in time!
