Mimi and Molly both love books!

We had a wonderful visit with Mimi this weekend! When she got here on Friday she brought Molly adorable new shoes and Dot Dots (flat markers). She was so excited about both of them. She put the shoes on right away and has been dot doting all weekend. She really loves to Dot Dot. They do it at school a lot. She also brought Molly a gorgeous dress that Auntie An made for her. It is her new halter style and it is too cute. Molly loved that too. She didn't want to take it off. She is really a clothes and shoe addict just like her Mommy and Mimi.

On Saturday we played outside and went shopping. Mom and I got some time to ourselves while Molly took her nap, then we picked her up and went to our favorite hang out-Barnes and Noble. Molly had fun showing Mimi all the books. After that we had a rare treat-we went out for dinner. Molly did really well. Andy got a treat after that because since I was occupied with Mom he got to go to the movies. He went to see Watchmen, which he thought was just ok, but really enjoyed going to the theatre. Mom and I made wreaths for our doors that turned out really good.

We had so much fun with Mimi! It really stinks that we don't live closer together. We have so much fun together and miss her so much when she leaves. Thanks for making the trip Mimi! Come back soon!

Stalked...

Do you ever feel like you are being watched?
Gosh, I hope she drops some!

That really looks good!

I'm going for it!

Just take some, BelleBelle!

This is what happens everytime Molly eats anything! Even when she is in her highchair! This is why Annabelle is so fat! What are you going to do? Molly will get mad and yell "NO NO BelleBelle!" and then she feeds her in the next second. Most of the time we have to let the dogs out when she is eating, but today it was raining so they stayed in and had some Goldfish crackers too. Oh well!

Relaxing Sunday

Today was a great day! We had decent weather so we were able to get outside this morning. I bought Molly some sidewalk chalk for her Easter basket, but broke it out early when it was such a nice day today. We had a great time decorating the driveway while Daddy raked our many leaves. After nap we went to Dairy Queen for ice cream sundaes. Molly and I were both very excited about that! She did such a good job eating hers just like a big girl! It amazes me how big she is sometimes. Dairy Queen has a great play area inside and out. They also have a train that goes aroung the ceiling that she thought was really cool! It was a great day! Next weekend Mimi comes and we are really looking forward to that! We haven't had visitors in a while and we get two this month--Uncle Jeff is coming the last weekend of March. We have a very exciting month planned!

Dress the Part

Outside?
Big shoes to fill

It's not as easy as it looks!

Mommy's are not as big

Fun with Daddy

Dressing up wears me out!

We had a great day! We had beautiful weather again today. So Molly and I went for a walk this morning (Andy had to work all day). After her nap we went to the mall to meet my friend Laura who is getting ready to move to Phoenix. It is such a bummer! I will really miss her, but am very thankful for Facebook and the internet! What a great way to keep in touch. When we got home Molly was worn out. She was so tired, but would not admit it. She wanted to go outside and I said no, so she preceded to put on her hat, scarf and tried to put on her gloves. I guess she thought that is what she had to do to go outside. It was pretty funny! After Daddy got home she had a great time walking in his shoes and then in mine. This is something she has been doing lately. It is really funny! We are looking forward to a nice Sunday with Daddy and hoping that the rain will hold off till the nighttime!

Famous!

We made the front page! (Of the Life section)
Where am I?
I know I'm in here somewhere!

Oh well, Mickey Mouse is on!

Yesterday we found out that Andy and Molly are on the front page of the Life section of the O'Fallon paper! They just printed the article on the Daddy Daughter Dance and theirs was one of the pics chosen. They interviewed Andy for the article and he did a great job, but I was most excited to see their adorable pic on the front! What fun! If you want to read the article and see the pic up close you can go to http://suburbanjournals.stltoday.com/articles/2009/03/04/stclair/life/0304fhj-ofdaddy.txt If you click on their pic it gets bigger and you can read the description underneath it. Pretty cool!

Thank You Grandma Halsell!

I love my new outfit!
Little Model

Clean teeth are important!

This outfit is adorable!

Last night we got a package from my Grandma for Miss Molly! I couldn't wait, so I opened it without her since she was already in bed (and in my defense I didn't really know it was for Molly since it was addressed to me :0) Anyways, it was this ADORABLE outfit that looks great on her! We just need warm weather so she can wear it. We're getting closer, though! It was 60 here today and the rest of the week. We went for a walk and had a nice time. Spring come soon! Thank you Grandma for this beautiful outfit!

Congratulations Auntie An!

Great job Auntie An!
Who wouldn't want to be their Valentine in those shirts?

We're ready for some apple picking!

Auntie An makes the best clothes!

I just wanted to take a blog and tell you all how proud I am of my little sis! She has started her own website where she sells little girls dresses, skirts, and bows. It is www.bowbakery.etsy.com and her stuff is so awesome that her website is going to be featured this week on www.frugalmommyof2girls.blogspot.com where they will give a dress out to a winner. I am so excited for her and proud! She has only been doing this a few months and already has over 250 sales! We are happy that it is going so well and are especially happy that she keeps Molly dressed so cute! We love you Auntie An!

**Make sure you all check out both websites!**
