Our Spring!

Oh about a month ago we had our first nice spring day!! Actually it felt like a summer day! It has been a really sucky spring so far... windy, cool, and rainy. So we weren't able to take Makenzie outside for awhile! We would bundle her up and take her on a few walks here and there, but with the wind she just wasn't having it. When the wind hits her she makes a face that looks like she's eating something sour and takes a deep breath and keeps breathing in and doesn't exhale until she starts crying. Haha... poor girl just doesn't get what this wind is all about.

When we finally had our one day of spring Matt and I were both anxious to get outside! We both had work that had to be done outside so we set Makenzie up in her jumparoo and went to work! Of course we had to put her little baby bonnet on that her mommy wore when she was just a babe!

And how cute was it!

Makenzie 4 Months Old, Ruger just turned 2!

Once the wind picked up (and Makenzie started screaming) we decided to head out for a walk down the KalHaven trail. Holy cow, was Ruger excited!


On our way home we about had to put him in the stroller with Makenzie... he was exhausted. We all were... a little out of shape I suppose!


One of the bows I made for Makenzie! New craft :0) Seems like I'm always doing one thing or another, haha! So I started making bows. Mandi had been making some for Natalie and it looked like too much fun... and addicting. So now I've joined this bow making fun! I don't think I have been out with Makenzie once while she was wearing one of the bows and not gotten a compliment. Everyone loves them and I think she just looks TOO cute in them!!


Makenzie loves her little snuggle bunny. When she is taking a nap she grabs it and cuddles up with it... too cute! She has gotten much better with her nap times and how long she is taking them. There is a Tigger stuffed animal in her crib that has a "crunchy" tail and a little bell in it that rattles! Oh she just loves that. Most times I know she's awake from her nap when I hear Tigger jingling :0)

This April we decided to sell our house! Sad... not sure we are 100% ready for it, but gas prices just got TOO high! Since Matt is working 45 mins away we might as well try to move closer and cut down on some cost and gain seeing Matt more often. He had been very very busy at work working lots of overtime, so he hasn't been around (and awake!) a whole lot! Hopefully we can sell and move by the winter so his commute doesn't get even longer once the snow flies.

It has definitely been an interesting experience showing people your house... weird. We had the house for sale by owner for just under a month and decided to give it to a realtor to hopefully "guarantee" a quicker sale. So far we had more people interested when it was for sale by owner! Fun to hear what everyone has to say about your house :0)

Makenzie celebrated her first Easter. Got her all dressed up in her little Easter dress that the girls from work bought her!! All her little polka dots matched all her Easter eggs! Unfortunately we didn't get many pictures of her smiling, she was WAY too busy with the eggs!!
