Something I love about this picture... the hat, slippers, lego mess... love my boy!

One hat wasn't enough

Says it all...

Thanks Gigi!

Gigi sent a sweet hat and blanket to Kerrington this week.  How very special :)  She loves them...

Visit from Grandma and Grandpa

For my last week of maternity leave, Grandma and Grandpa came back for a visit.  We had a great time playing and snuggling with the baby!

Grandma brought my old doll Joannie.  She and Kerrington hit it off :)

Lane Field

So I found this idea on Pinterest when planning Charlie's new Sports bedroom several months ago and vowed to make it while I was on maternity leave.  It was a super fun project and I think it turned out pretty nicely.  It even motivated me to paint Charlie's wall because I was so excited to hang it in his room.  Of course I documented the process...

Thought it would be fun to let him paint the back side (after I painted it white)

Hanging numbers is fun!

All hung up with freshly painted walls!

He loves it!

Brotherly Love

Charlie doesn't take too big of an interest in Kerrington but every once in awhile he either is super sweet or a little overly agressive with the hugs.  Below are some pictures of both :)

Sweet...

Overly agressive with hugs (I obviously don't have many of these)...

Outdoor Fun

We are LOVING living in the country this spring.  A yard and garden + nice weather = endless amount of fun!
