(Not) Wordless Wednesday (a day late, a dollar short)

Modeling my old baby clothes.  She loved putting them on and running around in them!  Pretty sure she rocked them better than I did back in the day!

She wore an...

Itsy bitsy, teeny weeny, yellow polka dot bikini. And she rocked it!

Success at Walk MS!

We completed our MS Walk again this past weekend!  Charlie rode along in her stroller the whole time and loved it.  I think our team had the most dogs in attendance too w/ 5 dogs walking with us!  Although I definitely didn't raise as much as I have in previous years I still raised enough to be proud of my contribution.  AND if you still want to donate, there is still time!!!  :)

Anyway, it was a great weekend down in Des Moines spent with family and great friends.  And even better my friend Sarah timed things perfectly with her pregnancy and had her little bundle a week early so I was lucky enough to get to go visit them in the hospital. Little Preston is beautiful!  So happy for them!  They're going to have so much fun and be such great parents.

Charlie found a new favorite toy too:  Balloons!  We had a lot of fun blowing some up and rubbing them on her head to stick to her and pushing them up her shirt.  She had a blast playing with them.  She is so much fun to watch have fun.  It immediately brings a smile to my face!

Perfect Mother's Day weekend

Thanks to the worlds best husband and daughter I had the best Mother's Day weekend! The weather was absolutely perfect too!

We went on a long bike ride Saturday around the lakes with a pit stop to soak up some sun and relax and another pit stop for a summer shandy. Yum!

Saturday night we hit up my favorite pizza joint, Leaning Tower of Pizza. As always, the pizza was delish! We finished the night out back with a fire and neighbors and beer. Really, what better way to end the day!?!

Sunday I got to sleep in (yay!) and then we headed out to Tin Fish for some yummy fish tacos on the lake. Beautiful weather and view!

After Charlie's nap we walked to the park and did a little "gardening". What a great weekend. I didn't want it to end!

Thanks go out to my 2 babes for making me the proudest and happiest mother ever. I am so blessed

Wordless Wednesday

This time,last year... Charlie has grown SO much!

Playing a little catch up...

I've been a lazy blogger lately.  We've had things going on, gone fun places and done fun things; I just haven't posted about them for some reason!  Here's a quick recap of the past couple weeks:

What a ham

We drove down to Des Moines for my sister, Kara's, baby shower.  She's going to have a baby boy in about 1 1/2 months!  I CANNOT WAIT!!!  The shower turned out great and little BS (the baby's temporary name) got a lot of great gifts.

Rattle cupcakes!

Isn't Kara just adorable?

Charlie walked "Waggs" around in circles all day

After the shower we had a lot of fun with bubbles.  Charlie LOVED it and kept saying 'bubble' over and over. 

The next day the weather was nicer so we broke out Charlie's new mower that Grandma B got her for Easter.  It's a bubble mower so we knew this would be a huge hit.  And it was.  Until Charlie had a meltdown b/c she was super tired and needed a nap right. that. second.

We've made goofy faces:

Had tickle wars:

Had a date with Louie:

Held a "book club" meeting:

And had a play date with cousin, Langston:

All in all, we've had a lot of fun!  All while looking cute.  It's a pretty damn good life we lead.  We are blessed.  :)
