Weekend Re-Cap

I didn't post to my normal link up Friday because I took the day off.  So instead, I'm re-capping my weekend.  It was a busy one.

I took off Friday to go to a funeral.

This lady...
...yea she was ridiculously awesome.
 
We were so surprised by her passing since was just 74 years old.  She was a part of our extended family.  Well she was a part of every one's extended family!  She was an amazing woman who smiled and laughed so much.  She loved and she loved hard.   
 
Miss Betty is her name and she will be fiercely missed by all.
 
We took Baby Girl to daycare since we knew she wouldn't understand anything going on at the funeral.  My husband didn't have much work to do because it rained all day long so we went out for lunch and ran some errands.
 
Saturday was a nice day.  My husband had to work but Baby Girl and I slept in and then went to a picnic in the afternoon.  The girl loves to be outside so she had a blast.  She ran non-stop from the time we got there until the time we left.
 



I can't believe how anti-social kids are these days.  Baby Girl said hi to every little kid on the playground and they all ignored her or ran away.  It kinda broke my heart because she would look over at me like, 'what did I do wrong?'  I felt so bad because she was just trying to be nice!

She still had a blast, though.  She wasn't a big fan of the swings.  I'm not sure why they freaked her out so much but she just wanted nothing to do with them!

After the picnic, we went shopping at Old Navy and got Baby Girl some awesome new summer clothes.  We had two major meltdowns because she wanted a pair of shoes that didn't fit her feet.  Then she wanted a pair of flip flops that hurt her feet.  She said OUCH every time I put them on her but she wanted them!

Then we went up to our 'new house', the one that we are planning to buy this year.  Baby Girl loves being there.  She loves running around, she loves playing with the new baby piggy and now there are baby chicks there so she is in heaven! 

Sunday was fun day too.  Baby Girl slept in again and then we hung out and watched some movies while Daddy worked again.  We went to visit Baby Girl's BFF Maya in the evening and then went to a dinner block party at a friend's local restaurant.  The girls had a blast!




Of course Baby Girl didn't want to go in the house when we got home so we stayed outside for awhile.  Oh and how could I forget?!  My little schmuffin turned 18 months old yesterday!



We had a pretty good weekend!

Blog Commenting Challenge!

Linking up with Jenna's Journey  for the 3rd Annual Blog Commenting Challenge! Hi! I'm Vanessa! I live with my husband Bryan and my amazing 6 month old Ashlyn in Pennsylvania. I was born and raised here and love it very much! We have 2 pugs, Katie and Utley, one black lab, Camo and one cat, Joey. Our second cat, Kitty, is sadly recently deceased (on Father's Day). I work full time as a Marketing Analyst for a supply chain consulting firm. I don't even know what that means really! I have been here for 3 years and am thinking about a career change. SAHM is looking better and better. My husband owns his own landscaping business which has been both wonderful and horrible at the same time! My husband and I know each other for about 17 years now and we have been together for 12. We got married in September of 2010, just 2 weeks shy of our 10th anniversary! We got pregnant after only 2 months of trying and last December we were greeted by Ashlyn Marie Miller,...

17 Tips - #1 Take a Prenatal Vitamin

17 Tips for a Healthy Pregnancy - #1 Take a Prenatal Vitamin Even when you're still trying to conceive, it's smart to start taking prenatal vitamins. Your baby's neural cord, which becomes the brain and spinal cord, develops within the first month of pregnancy, so it's important you get essential nutrients, like folic acid, calcium, and iron, from the very start. Prenatal vitamins are available over the counter at most drug stores, or you can get them by prescription from your doctor. If taking them makes you feel queasy, try taking them at night or with a light snack. Chewing gum or sucking on hard candy afterward can help, too. It took me a little while to get into the habit of taking my prenatal vitamin. I wasn't used to taking anything daily since I had been off the pill for a few months. I finally got myself in the habit of taking it every morning. I just take an over the counter vitamin. It has the same nutrients as a doctor prescribed vitamin but is less hass...

HFMD

Hand, foot, and mouth disease is a common viral illness that usually affects infants and children younger than 5 years old. However, it can sometimes occur in adults. Symptoms of hand, foot, and mouth disease include fever, blister-like sores in the mouth (herpangina), and a skin rash. ( http://www.cdc.gov/hand-foot-mouth/about/index.html) Are you kidding me? Blister-like sores in the mouth? Why do things like this even exist? What purpose does an illness like this that just torments little babies (and their parents) serve?  This stupid illness is currently 'running it's course' through my poor son. One week before his first birthday. Apparently it's 'going around' as the doctor so nicely explained.  Fortunately we only had one really bad day where he was not eating or drinking much and was just miserable. He was back to his usually happy self in no time even with blisters in his mouth. So this week, while my husband is away for work in Chicago and ...
