May I take your order?

Out to dinner in Winter Park at Hernando's Pizza. Lauren had a lot of fun- her favorite entertainment? Reading the menu, singing to the '80s muzac and drinking ice water from a mason-jar. She is so much fun, glad she is such a good sport and likes to eat out.

Lauren playing

Check out these pics of my pretty little angel playing in the grass. She was helping me open cards. She is so pretty. She can sit up on her own now, which is pretty fun.

Hooked on this yogurt

I am hooked on this FiberOne yogurt. It comes in tiny little cups and is only 80 cals per cup, and has loads of fiber in it. It is so creamy and tastes great- I am usually not a yogurt fan, but I love this kind. You gotta try the key lime pie- you can even taste the graham cracker crust- seriously- how did they do that? I am sure it is some artificial something that makes the taste (I emailed the company to ask how- will keep you posted).

Baby Leg-warmers

I have decided that I love these things. Lauren has just one pair of baby legwarmers, but she will be getting more. They are so cute on babies, and then they dont have bare legs when they are wearing dresses. Love 'em!

Summer plans!

I know I am not the only one- It is CRAZY how fast the weekends in the summer book up!! Jeff and I each have a cousin getting married this summer- that equals two trips to WI this summer, two trips to ND this summer, an anticipated camping trip with friends, a week with my parents in town in July, and maybe a family RV trip for the three of us?? Our close friends from Utah are in town in September for the w/e for a wedding and we hope to have them as guests. And Jeff and I have opposite weekends to work, so we work 2 weekends per month!! How can we fit this all in?? This is the way I feel every May- how can I have my whole summer booked already?? Baffling, but fun! How lame would I feel if my calendar was blank for the whole summer (or would I love it......)?? I think we are blessed to have so many wonderful plans- miss Lauren is going to need to warm up her running shoes to keep up with our lifesyle- I sense she is game!

Rub-a-dub dub!

One last video- a clip of Lauren in the tub. It isn't great- I was dumb and tipped the camera on the side - duh! And I edited it weird to it runs into another clip, but anyway- here is some more cute-ness.

The Jumper

So, this is Lauren's new jumper. Check out how cute she looks! Unfortunately, it doesn't fit on our downstairs doorways, and wont adjust any shorter on the upstairs ones, so i think i am going to have to send it back and try a different style (I bought this based on Laurie's blog rec from the past). But she looks so cute- it makes her look like she can stand on her own!

Lauren and Daddy Playing

Check out the video of Lauren playing with her Daddo. She was singing and chatting it up, until I started the video camera, of course! Look who is wearing daddy's Rockies hat. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for the cookie jar toy!

Happy May Day!

May Day (May 1st) is celebrated in many places around the world. The traditions and stories surrounding May Day vary from place to place. There is, however, one thing that is similar in most celebrations - the use of Flowers!
One of the most popularly known May Day traditions is to hang a basket full of spring flowers and/or other small gifts on a neighbor's doorknob. The trick is you don't want the neighbor to see you! If you get caught, you are supposed to get a kiss. We used to do this when I was a kid- cannot wait to resurrect the tradition in a year or two!
