February illness, March madness, and April flowers - bring May flowers!

Greetings to all - I know it has been awhile!  I may have posted these first two pictures before, but I just really like them.  Harper is becoming quite the dog walker.  We went today in shorts!


The girls finally held baby Charlie - uh...sort of...







Harper attended Catherine's, our neighbor girl's, birthday party in January and had a make over, was in a fashion show, and rode in a pink limo.  Her first limo ride.  







February started off okay, but then it went straight down hill.  We all were victims of some mysterious stomach virus.  Finley had it the worst and just could not get rid of it.  She ended up in ER due to dehydration.  Yes, mother of the year I am not, and I am now a complete germaphob!  Here, Finley is opening an early bday present from Aunt Sammie - before illness began.

Fancy girls - before illness!






These are some selfies from the many trips to the doctor.










On the bright side, we had cozy dogs to cuddle with during the illness and many snow days from school.  So they didn't miss as many days from school as they could have!


Nana Pat arrived during the illness, so that Matt and I could go to his President's club in Australia.  However, I just could not leave Fin - she was down eight pounds and had just been rehydrated.  So, Matt went without me.  Cousin Kelsey came to help, too!  Even though the girls were on the mend, I was thankful to have both of them to help me!  My dad came after Kelsey left, too.  That is more help than I have ever had in my life which was good because I was starting to lose it!  The girls - with the help of Kelsey - put on Snow White for us!  I think we all needed a good laugh, and we got one!  Snow white and her mirror.

At the Fickle Pickle on a warm, early March night with Nana Pat and Grandpa Steve!

Nana Pat got to be a mystery reader for Dr. Suess week in Teddy and Harper's class.


She wants a cool rider!

Finally in March, we had Finley's belated birthday dinner at Bennihanna's and her rescheduled bday party at skyzone.  The bright side was that Aunt Stephie, Aunt Sammie, and all of their kids were in town!


Crazy cousins on St. Patty's day!


Baby Charlie is safely behind that motley crew.

Harper, Teddy, and Oliver are bonding!


















Definitely a meeting of the minds - Grandpa Steve and Leo!


Cousin trampoline fun!


We went to Punta Cana, DR for spring break!  I finally got a vacation, too!








I think that is the night she slept on my lap at dinner!





Somehow this throwback picture of Dixie and Shae from Nashville got on here!  

The cousins went to JCpenny and had a super model shoot!
