Do not anticipate trouble, or worry about what may never happen. Keep in the sunlight.
Benjamin Franklin

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Phil 4:6-7

Wii Dora

Because she was so sick during her birthday, we saved a birthday gift back to give her later....and today was the day. She got her first Wii game....Dora! Her and her dad were pretty intense!


Tube Day

We had tubes today. She did great considering she had a bottle at 5:30 am and we didn't go into surgery until 2:00 pm! She didn't cry all day (until after surgery). She had a horrible time waking up....cried the entire time in recovery (even as she sucked down 2 six ounce bottles!) and the entire way home. Finally, I was able to rock her and we slept....it was great and she was so much better afterwards.


Yikes....

Well, bike riding may not be as fun and exciting as she originally thought. The better she gets the faster and longer she goes...however, she hasn't figured out how to stop.

Ready, Set, Go!!

Aunt Micki and Uncle Jeff delivered a Dora bike tonight! She was sooooo excited. However, it only had one training wheel. So Brian loaded her up and headed to Walmart and came back with some girlie pink training wheels! I loved it! I didn't even have to tell him to make sure to think girlie....he just does it for his little girls :)

She took off like a pro! I couldn't believe it!

I can just see how much she loves her daddy here...I love him too ;)

Getting tired after a long night of bike riding....

Happy Irish Day!!

Irish gear: shirt and Hello Kitty PJ's......great start to St. Pat's day!!

Not So Happy Birthday



A birthday is supposed to be fun filled. Her 3 year old birthday was not. We did the best we could, but with 103 temp and a very runny nose most of the day, it just wasn't easy. She cried while trying to open presents, slept off and on all day, and at the end of the day she told Dora her one birthday wish was her M&M ice cream...so we made it happy before she went to bed. M&M ice cream with three candles. She blew them out, ate about half, then wanted rocked and went off to bed :(

Getting Warmer

Thinks she is big stuff!

Loves the swing

The girls of the family :)

Before the 70-80 degree days set in, we went out for a little fun.....still needed coats and hats, but we had a lot of fun and smiles. Stella is so on the go....she is going to be all over the place this summer! Can't wait!!
