What A Cutie!

I just had to put these up on the blog! When we got home from school today, Ada-Grace grabbed her hat and baby and went straight for her shopping cart. I guess she was a lady on a mission!

Winter Wonderland

What crazy weather we have had this week! In the wee hours of the morning on Tuesday, February 1st is started to ice and snow. The temperatures have not gotten above the freezing mark, so we have been living in a winter wonderland all week. Last night, it started to snow again. And this time, we got a ton of snow. Probably 6-8 inches all over the metro-plex. Ada-Grace is not a fan of the cold weather, but we had to get out and experience some sledding in our own neighborhood. It was so fun to see all the families out having fun together.

Living in Texas we don't own sleds and skis, so we figured some box tops would work well for a sled....

She's off to the races....

That box top did not work!

"It's too cold out here."

Luckily, the family next to us let us borrow their sled. It made AG feel a bit better!

That's more like it! She loved going down the hill and wanted to do more. "Whee!!"

Had to get some slide time in too

Warm at home and watching Daddy make a snowman!

A Girl & Her Dog

So here's the story: Clementine is our beagle. Our only pet. I got her when I was a single gal living in an apartment. She was the center of my world. She went to doggie daycare at least twice a week, got top of line dog food and went to the vet at the least little thing. Well, needless to say - things have changed! She's always been a good dog, but when I found out I was pregnant, Clementine slowly started to inch down the the list of priorities. She's not getting top of line food (she's lucky we even remember to feed her), doggie daycare (what's that? Oh it's not the backyard??) and she was about 6 months late for her last vet appointment (luckily still very healthy though). But there is someone living in this house that really seems to enjoy her - lucky for Clementine the new center of my world likes her in her world!

Clementine in the nursery before Ada-Grace was born. Man, if she only knew what was coming for her...

Here's the duo - AG is about 7 months here. This is the first picture I had of them together. We kept them separated for a long time. I was just nervous about what Clem might do. She's always been gentle though - thank goodness!

Clemmie is being very tolerant

Why can't my friend come in, Mommy?

Why do they look so guilty? Could it be that pizza box behind Clem?

Fun times together!

Clemmie kisses!

Now it's time to rest

Where Have We Been...??

BUSY! After Halloween, life got crazy! With the rush of the holidays and Ada-Grace growing every second, the blog took a backseat... a way backseat. I'm going to try and be better. Here are some pictures from November, December and January. Enjoy!

Ada-Grace on Thanksgiving Day

We kicked off December with an overnight trip to the Gaylord Texan Hotel. They have an awesome ice show every year and beautiful decorations. Family Picture time!

Going to church

Look who came for an early visit!

Papa and Nanny also came for a visit. Ada-Grace received a kitchen from them. She loves it!

Here she is trying out her slide from Grammy & Ranger. Looks like Daddy wants to try it out too..

Christmas Morning! Santa was very good to her!

Here is Ada-Grace and Daddy putting together some new shelves for our newly created playroom. We turned the office/guest room into a playroom/office. We love playing in there!

Sitting at the new table and chair set Grammy & Ranger gave her for the playroom.
