One stick from a nearby tree and $4.00 later...

a place to hang my jewelry!

Hi y'all

If you listen carefully you will hear Laney's new Texas greeting:)

A Glimpse of February

We found Laney's old swing in a box in the garage...so we put it up in the doorway of her room for a day:)

Snow!! And lots of it!

A visit from Grammie and paw paw.

Auntie jen jen and grandma also came for a visit! I got a cute video of Laney talking to aunite jen jen's belly and giving it kisses:)

And last but not least Laney is on her SECOND cold of the month:( Lot's of whining and lots of "boogees" (as Laney calls them)

Giveaways and Babies!

My friend Stephanie is having a blog giveaway!!! I never win anything but I thought it would be fun to at least try:) So, I am posting on my blog about it in order to enter. A couple months ago Stephanie and Ben (her hubby) had a baby! She is so precious and cuddly and adorable. Even Laney thinks so:) When we got their birth announcement Laney was so excited to see the baby. She pointed out her eyes, her "band" and "ahh shoo". Translation= head band and that she was sleeping. haha I didn't catch her initial reaction, but this is her talking about it again. If you listen closely you can even hear her say "Ella"...which is pretty close to Ellie:)

Me & My Pal

Today I got to spend the whole day with my sweet Laney! I haven't had a day with just me and my sweet girl since before Christmas!! We were so used to our little routine so now we are trying to get used to our new normal... two full time working parents. With my new job I have had a lot of orientation and of course its peak basketball season so Garrett has had games and tournaments.
Yesterday Garrett stayed home with Laney while I worked. He was brave enough to take her to story time at the library. I tried to prepare him as much as possible, but Laney is starting a new age group called "Toddler Time". I had to laugh out loud yesterday at work when I got a text from him saying he was "ill prepared" haha I can just imagine him sitting on the carpet (I'm sure the only dad) trying to sing along with the songs (participation in strongly encouraged).
Laney and I are now watching baby signing time after eating our grilled cheese and taking a bath... I've missed these "normal" everyday things with my crazy Laney! Back to work tomorrow... but I have next Wednesday to look forward to! Another regular day hanging out with my silly girl. Speaking of silly she is now dancing... doing the "diaper dance" She has some interesting moves.

This is what happens when she spends time with Daddy at the library

SNOW!

Our first Texas snow!! Yay. Laney loved to look at the snow, but didn't really like to be in it. She kept saying "brrrr"

Singin' in the Tub

Laney has moved on from dancing to Beyonce to singin' the Black Eyed Peas....she sings this song all the time and if we start to sing it she cracks up.
