Sunny Day

With the exception of a few chilly April shower days (chilly meaning 65), warm weather has officially arrived in Georgia. And all Lily wants is her favorite thing, being outside. As soon as we get home from school, before we even get out of her car seat, she starts yelling "Outside! Outside! Mommy, Daddy, Duke, Outside!" And we play in the yard and on the driveway. She loves watering the plants...with all the rain we've been getting in addition to Lily's faithful watering, I don't know how they're still alive.

Filling the watering can on the back patio, then running around the front to water the bushes. :)

Saying hi to her little sister...

Giving Mommy a big hug from behind

And here she comes to get me!

Weekend worker bee

Whenever we are home during the weekends, we try our best to make baby steps along the long road to being officially settled in the new house. Hang a picture here, plant a little something there...we try to do a little project whenever we can. Thankfully, Lily has a great attitude about it as long as she gets to help. Here we are wiping down a dresser that I got for $40 at a thrift store, since she is running out of room in her changing table drawers (and her little sister will be needing it in August). I think she likes it! We are standing in what will eventually be the nursery, once I can manage to get the crazy ocean mural painted over...still a good bit of work to do!
