Church

We took Annabelle to church for the first time today! We tried once when Gramma M was here, but were so late we decided to just watch Solid Rock online. The day after, we went to the Pediatrician and they warned us against taking her into crowded areas since she's so little, and it's flu season. We decided it was sort of a God thing that we didn't make it that day. Since then, that's what we've been doing; watching online. We really enjoy John Mark's messages. But I've missed going to church. And I think it's important to raise our daughter in a church community. The only problem is we haven't really gotten involved in a church community. We've gone to several here, and just haven't really felt anything. I guess we just kind of gave up. Today we just decided to go to Alice Drive Baptist church, where we first went when we got here, and have visited on and off since then. It's a nice church, with great people, but the worship is awful, and I don't mean the sound, because I actually like the music, but it's not real worship...it's just "song time", and the messages are SO typical. It's hard to even listen to something I've heard a billion times. The pastor is alright, he seems nice, but it's just the typical evangelism, salvation story, tithe or do good to others type messages, and he really doesn't add anything new or exciting, so it's really hard to get anything out of it. I actually felt like it was hard to pay attention today. *sigh* But at least we went; I'm glad we did.
Here's are little princess all dressed up: 

Did I do anything today??

uhhhm, no. hardly. I had a really sharp pain in my right lung for a couple hours in the morning, it was freaking me out, and then it went away. ooohkay? Then I did a little crafting.

my paint creation for Annabelle's hairbows!

I had saved and pinned a whole bunch of ideas for a hair bow holder a couple nights ago. Then I went to Michaels and saw this butterfly sign. Annabelle's nursery "theme" has sort of turned into buttons and butterflies, so finding this (for $3!) was perfect!! I painted it, added some ribbon and hung a few of her new bows! Now to decide WHERE in her room to hang it!

Sping blossoms

I walk outside this morning and BAM! there are WAY more little white flowers on our bushes, and some yellow on the vine thingy! cool! Spring is totally here...and so are my allergies. yipee!

Even Annabelle is blooming! :)

oh no...TV

The TV has been catching Annabelle's eye a lot lately. Guess I need to turn it off more often. Today we snuggled and watched Live with Kelly ;)

Silly Keegan

We went to Baker's Sweets today for brunch with some Shaw ladies. It was really nice to get out, even if I was almost an hour late lol (typical), and meet a few more ladies. Keegan was being silly, playing with Annabelle's tutu :) He's such a well behaved 16 month old!

Happy Spring!

What a pretty first day of spring :)
I cleaned the house, played with baby, made her some new hair bows and then took a nice long walk.

one of our ugly plants started blooming a couple days ago!

she's a pretty dog

gaaaaaaaah!

hahaha playtime

she is drooling like crazy!
