Maggie the Cheerleader



Since Maggie wasn't invited to "cousins camp" this time we dressed her up in a cheerleader uniform (what girl doesn't like to dress up?!?) and took her to my parents' (a.k.a. Grammy and Granddaddy) house to watch the basketball game. Congrats, Hogs!



Look at that big cheerleader smile. First team/traveling squad, for sure. And yep, that's the "new me". Same shirt as last Saturday (hmmm...clearly a current comfy fav) but with 7 less inches of hair. Yikes!

"Cousins' Camp"


Larry and Nancy, a.k.a. Pappy and Mimi, invited cousins, Cate, Ryan, and Drew, to Wilson for "cousins camp"this weekend. After installing three car/booster seats in the back of their car and strapping our kids in, I wonder if they still thought it was a good idea. :)

This was just too cute not to post.

Drew in the Dryer




Drew is into climbing into things, over things, up things, etc. This is where I found him Thursday morning. He was so proud.

Hooray for Some Warm Weather!



Saturday was warm and sunny...yea! What a treat to be able to get outside without being bundled. We loaded up and went to our neighborhood park for a while. Drew had a blast running, climbing, sliding, and the ever popular throwing rocks. It took two people to keep him safe though (he's a wild man) and even then he did leave with a pretty nasty chin injury. (Thanks to Garrett and Amelia for their help keeping our child under control.) Brent was such a good daddy going down the long tube slide with Drew more than a few times. It was pure joy from Drew. I can't wait for more weather like this so we can play. Come on Spring. We're ready!

Jammies

It's hard to get Drew to sit still for anything, especially to pose for a picture with his sister. However, just up from his morning nap and in an unusually cuddly mood, Drew and Maggie spent a couple of quality minutes hanging out side by side in their PJs. Of course, wherever Drew goes, Bear goes too. And I'm happy to report several times this weekend Drew actually "shared" his Bear with Maggie. Ahhh, the luv.
