Addy's 1st Georgia Aquarium Trip

We decided to take an impromptu day off of work and daycare to take Addy for her first trip to the Georgia Aquarium. All in all, she loved it. But she did teach us a few things . . . like the Beluga whales were actually "White Dolphins" and Sea Anemones were "flowers". Gotta LOVE a 2-year old's imagination! Here are some pics:

Two-Years Old!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY sweet baby girl!!!

Wow, time has just been flying! It feels like we just got done planning her 1st birthday party!

Here are Addy's wellness stats from her two-year appointment today:

1. Weight 27 lbs 4 oz (55-60th percentile)

2. Height 32.5 inches (25th percentile)

3. Head Circumference 50 (87th percentile = that brain continues to dominate! ;)

We had an AMAZING Yo Gabba Gabba-themed birthday party this weekend! Here are some pics:


And we also took the day off from work and daycare today, so that we could spend her actual birthday together as a family. We decided to take her for her first trip to Zoo Atlanta. Here are some pics from today:

I like the My Beloved Necklace. Please enter me:) Thanks!

It's been far too long, my friends, but keeping up with a toddler is certainly a busy handful! Anyway, I did want to take a minute to introduce you to a great company called DaySpring, known for their "Inspirational Christian Cards, Gifts, Home Decor, and More".

I recently had the opportunity to review one of the beautiful products from their site: the Wonderful Grace - Carved Wooden Serving Tray. When I took it out of the box, I was instantly impressed by the quality and craftmanship. It really is beautiful in person! I took pictures, but they didn't turn out nearly as well as the ones from the DaySpring site:



And check out some of these other great finds:

Faith - Colorful Devotions Sculpture Faith Gallery Wrapped Canvas Print God Bless Our Family 4x6 Frame

So, to say the very least, there's some really cute stuff on their site! And I'm so excited about getting to use the tray. It's as functional as it is beautiful!

See, It Snows in Georgia! (Part Deaux)

We don't get very much snow here in the South, so when we do, it tends to be an ordeal of sorts. All the news stations disrupt regular programming with "up-to-the-minute" news coverage. And nobody, and I mean nobody, can drive in this weather.

Hence, I got to stay home from work today. But Addy has certainly kept me busy! I tip my hat to all of you stay-at-home moms out there, props! Anyway, here's some pictures of our sweet girl (who is not a fan of the snow AT ALL). When she first saw it out the window this morning, she asked, "Oh no, what is that?" And now, every time she passes a window or catches a glimpse out the back door, she says worriedly, "Oh nooooo!"
