Someone didn't take a nap on Monday, so she fell asleep on me that afternoon. I knew if I laid her down, she would wake up. Even though I had a thousand other things I could have been doing, I just sat there and held her. I tried to memorize everything about her, her features, her sounds. The kids are growing so fast, I feel like every time I blink, they look so much older.
Ready for a new week at school
These were all of her "modeling" poses. She would pose and then say, "take my picture".
The kids have been obsessed with hide-and-seek lately. That afternoon, we were not playing, but I couldn't find Hollon. (Thankfully she giggles a ton, so she is pretty easy to find.) I walked in my closet and found this.
It's Wednesday! Music day!!
So, some days, Hollon will wear whatever I put on her. Other days, she fights me like crazy. This was a day she fought me. She loves this pink dress. It is her favorite and she would wear it every day if I'd let her.
This is all of the crap she insists on sleeping with
Jake had a haircut scheduled for that afternoon. Afterwards, I took the kids to get ice cream as a treat.
Our old bubble maker bit the dust, so I bought a new one for this summer
Happy St. Patrick's Day! Someone was extremely upset with me, that I had the nerve to put a dress on her that wasn't pink.
Saturday was opening ceremonies for baseball and Jake's first baseball game of the season! We ate breakfast before heading to the park.

Jake will never stand with his friends and let me take a picture, so I just have to take action shots

Sister was actually really good during the game. It had rained that morning, so the park was a muddy mess. Any sane, practical mom would have dressed their child in old grungy clothes. But I'm neither sane nor practical, so I dressed my child in a cute outfit with WHITE leggings. And red suede Livie and Luca shoes. (Her rainboots didn't match. Duh.) Needless to say, leggings and shoes are ruined.
She played for the longest time with this leaf and stick
I snapped this picture of her with Granddad. I didn't realize until I just now posted it, that they are both doing the same thing with their hands!
We won!!
Baseball will wear you out
The Bush's were coming to get Jake & Hollon later that day, so Rob & I could go to a neighbor's house for dinner. Hollon read while she waited.
After church on Sunday, we hung out, out back
And Jake & Dad played catch
