Wordless Wednesday - A Day in the Park!

Have a wonderful Wednesday everyone! ((HUGS))

What a GREAT Daddy...

I came downstairs the other day, to witness Lilli dressed in her Snow White costume, fixing her Daddy's hair... and with hairbows no less! Danny was watching a NCAA basketball game (not sure which one, he watches them all) and there sits Lilli, perched up on his lap. I grabbed my camera and the captured the following...

 

Can y'all see why I love my sweet Danny so much? He's so patient, kind & loving! Lilli and I are sooooo blessed to have him in our lives!!

Have a wonderful Tuesday everyone! ((HUGS))

HAPPY GIRL!!

Folks are constantly asking me about the Lilli's "Terrible Two's"... Lilli has her moments, don't get me wrong, but those moments have been very mild thus far! For the most part, Lilli can be a bit of a DIVA. She knows what she likes... but more importantly knows HOW to get it!  Sounds a bit like her Mommy, huh??!

Lilli's a bundle of energy and sometimes her energy can overwhelm us both. She's a happy, sweet child; eager to help and please! Her attention span is getting better & she likes to complete things she's started. She's even working on writing her name & some sight words... and doing a great job!! I'm so proud of her!!

I took lots of pictures this weekend, but haven't had an opportunity to download them. So pictures from our "day in the park" will soon follow... stay tuned!

Have a blessed Monday y'all! ((HUGS))

Friday's Photos - Little Miss Valentine

Lilli had a wonderful Valentine's Day surrounded by so many folks she loves...

"My Mary" came by and brought Lilli a big stuffed teddy bear and some candy. The stuffed teddy bear was Mary's when she was younger. Lilli loves it!

Then we went over to Uncle John and Aunt Michele's house. They gave Lilli a bunny toy with jelly beans in it!  "Beans" are Lilli's FAVORITE candy! Lilli enjoyed spending time with them and playing with her cousin Lainey.

Afterwards, we headed over to Nana and Papa's house. Nana and Papa gave Lilli a small Raggedy Ann doll that is holding hearts reading "I love you". Sooooo cute!

It seems like "Little Miss Valentine" was everyone's VALENTINE this year! We are so blessed to be surrounded by family & friends that love our sweet girl so much!! God is so good!!!

The forecast says it'll be 60° & SUNNY here tomorrow, so we have every intention to enjoy the great outdoors... maybe playing in the playhouse, drawing with our sidewalk chalk, a bike ride... and maybe even a picnic at the park.  Isn't it amazing that last weekend we had between 5 & 6 inches of snow on the ground!??!!!

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!! ((HUGS))

Thankful, thankful Thursday...

WOW...What a night!! Our van broke down last night, strangely after spending the day in the shop. I needed a new serpentine belt and idler pulley, so off to the shop it went. Apparently things weren't really "fixed"... and Danny, Lilli & I ended up on the side of the road last night.Thankfully, we were at the entrance of our neighborhood, which is such a blessing!!!
We were able to get in touch with the shop owner/mechanic, who told us to restart the car... but drive home slowly. Y'all, all the lights on the dashboard were lit up, and there were warning bells going off!! Believe it or not, we made it!

 

Today, I am thankful for a few things... First, I am thankful that my sweet husband (who remains cool in situations like this) was with me/us! Second, I am thankful that we weren't driving 55+ mph on the highway and lost our power steering, which was a big part of the problem! Third, I am thankful that we made it home safely, albeit 30 minutes past Lilli's scheduled bedtime. And last, but certainly not least, I am thankful for Lilli's "My Mary" who was able to come pick Lilli up for daycare this morning.

Thank you Mary... you are too good to us!!!

This is a "Thankful Thursday" indeed! Soooo much to be thankful to God for!! What are you thankful for today?
Have a wonderful day y'all... ((HUGS))

Wordless Wednesday
