Hoppy Easter

We had a great first Easter with Ally! Saturday night our church had an easter carnival. Of course we spent ALL day saturday setting up for it, so by sat. night ally was in no mood to have fun. Still, we got to hunt easter eggs with her-she picked up a couple!- and we had 2 different Moon Jumps so Ally got to have some time in there as well. Daddy and her were alone in it during the story time so she got to crawl around and bounce. Anyway, here are a few pics of Ally in her easter dress. She looked like a princess!

On the downhill slide. . .

Well, we bought ally a stroller to walk behind and she absolutely loves it. Wait-REWIND. Last week adam and I wanted to go 4 wheeling on Friday when it had started blizzarding (word? I dont know!) so we called up our dear friends daniel and Jamie to keep Ally.
When we picked Ally up, she had a bruise down the side of her face-thats beside the point now though-Jamie told me that she was walking behind Lukes Lightning Mcqueen walker. I decided I needed to get her one! (By the way she had a bruise because she had fallen while walking). So Ally picked up on her new walker really quick!We are right there with her due to our overly hard concrete wood floors! She is enjoying the freedom to walk around though!


LOOK at those cute little legs

The Learning chair

Ally has had this toy for a long time, but is just now getting "big" enough to love it! She can sit in it all by herself now, but likes to try to stand up, which usually results in a fall. We sit right in front of her ready to catch her. She is a daredevil!

This one is a perfect example of her standing up!

I will leave you with this pic! A couple of weeks ago ,we had a cookout with about 6 friends over, and ally had diaper rash, so I let her go nakey. She only peed on the floor once!

We can go snowhere. . .

I love snow, so when the weather announced woodward as the "bullseye" of the storm, I was pretty excited! Well, they made it sound like we would wake up to a mess FRIDAY morning, so when we heard thunder and saw lightnight during the night Thursday I was disappointed. We woke up to a little snow but not "bullseye 12-16" of snow. The weather repeatedly said "its still coming" but I wasnt too hopeful. I woke up this morning to find myself proven wrong. . . Our front yard. Our yukon is on the right and adams work truck is outside the fence, crazy drifts because our yard is all fenced in.

Our back yard

the back yard (looking out the garage door. . . this is where my poor dogs had to pee until daddy shoveled)

yeah, thats my grand prix buried out there. The back end is the only part visible, the rest is completely buried.

One more look at the "winter wonderland"

Adam REALLY wanted to get out today and go look around town, so he shoveled our way to the yukon doors, thinking surely our 4WD can back over a 4 ft drift seated behind it. . . then he realized NOBODY had driven down the road and he chickened out. So here we sit. Probaly wise.

Special Delivery. . . or not!

I earned a $200 cooking pan from Tupperware because of my sales last month. So I was ecstatic to see it had shipped and would be here today! Well, I get a whole bunch of shipments from Fed Ex (tupperware) and so I KNOW that my guy comes to my house usually 1245-100. Well, 3 rolled around and I kept obsessively checking my fed ex shipment status, to find, each time that delivery date is 3/23 (today) and it was on the truck for delivery. Its not 805, set delivery of 3/23 and is on the truck for delivery. Im pretty sure my package is lost! So Im officially frustrated! Im going to leave this vent with a quote from dad.
"Sometimes you cant fix stupid!"
OH SO TRUE!
I promise Im not crazy if you know whats going on in our lives and those we love.

St. Patricks Day

Happy St. Patrick's Day (a day late) from Miss Ally Shay!

First Real Boo Boo

Ally has now had her first real owwy, blood and all. We were at the church in my moms office today waiting for a tupperware shipment to arrive. She is all about standing on her knees checking things out. She was playing with my moms desk drawers, lost balance and wacked her face (or so we thought) on the desk. As I held her, she started having blood all over her mouth. We stopped the bleeding and realized she had gummed it. Now she has bruises on her gums. Poor baby. Its a good thing she didnt have teeth to begin with because she really wouldnt after that. So adam gets home tonight , is playing playstation and I hear this THUMP. SCREAM. Ally hit her head really hard on our hard wood floor again! POOR baby! She's had a rough day but has been a trooper.
