Spring fever

I got these daffodils today @ the grocery store. They look a little droopy, maybe because it's gloomy out. I'm so ready for Spring. I HATE Winter so much. I did some Spring cleaning yesterday. I have more to do when I have a free day.

Luck of the Irish

I had this cute Siggy made on Cafemom. If you're a mom & haven't checked out Cafemom yet. It's a fun social networking site for moms. They have a bunch of cool groups on there. www.cafemom.com

My 1st Mommy & Me Monday

Hosted by Krystyn

We took these pics last Thursday before a playdate. I set the timer on the camera. I love that we look more alike now. Not sure if I will do this each week, but I will as much as I can.

T's new ceiling fan

My hubby spent the day installing a ceiling fan in T's room yesterday. He added a 2nd light switch (really for the fan). She has a Tinkerbelle/fairy/princess theme.

I took a bunch of pics of the fan from different angles. It's still hard to see the detail. She picked it out & it's so pretty. She'll be getting a mini room make-over around her b-day in July. I want to make it a little less babyish, with new curtains & a canopy over her bed.

Cat in the Hat

They had a birthday party today at our library for the Cat in the Hat. They had a bunch of fun crafts going on. Tara was too scared to get a pics with him, so I took the 1 below with him in the background.

Whoopie pies rock

Last weekend my hubby got us whoopie pies. He got mint for me & peanut butter for him. SOOOOO good.

Friday follow

Welcome to the Friday Follow celebration hosted by One 2 Try, Hearts Make Families and Midday Escapades! We invite you to join us every Friday to get more blog followers and to follow other interesting blogs. It is all about sharing and having fun.

Here's how YOU can join the celebration:

--Link up your blog name and URL using the Mcklinky on 1 of those 3 sites. Only need to add on one blog to be seen on all the blog hops.

--Follow the Friday Follow hostesses listed in the first 3 slots.

--Follow as many blogs as you'd like.

--Take a moment to comment on the blogs telling them you're from Friday Follow.

--Follow back when you get a new follower through Friday Follow. The Blog Hop is the same at each of the three hosts blogs so you do not have to add your blog at each site. Just one - but you can follow each blog. Follow a few or follow them all.

I added a Friday follow button to the right side of my page.

Catching up on things

These are a few pics I took from over the weekend. These pics were taken Friday morning after the storm. You can see some of the tree that is down. Our neighbor helped Anthony move it over to the side, since it is his tree.

This is the driveway.

Backyard.

I got my 1st Shamrock shake for the season on Friday.

The hubs put a ceiling fan in our bedroom. We didn't have 1 in there & we really need more light in there.

It's fun winning things

I won this dusty rose hoodie today for Tara & also the shirt below that with the greenish sleeves. The main thing that I try to win is clothes for her because kids clothes is so expensive & they grow out of them so fast.
