Our week

We've had a good week.  On Tuesday, Daddy had to go back up to Cambridge, so we've been missing him.  But we've been enjoying the warm weather and getting ready to move! Amie took Sara, Mick, and I to Chick-Fil-A and Sara got an ice cream cone!

Isn't he so cute?

Sara, Mick, and I spend a lot of time walking around the neighborhood and Sara loves to pick flowers and find rocks and sticks!

My little monkey can now climb up this:

Mick loves to lay in his crib and talk to himself in the mirror:

Mick still likes to spend time with the baby dolls!

From May 2009

I put Sara's climber together! She didn't remember it so it was brand new again! Guess that will be happening a lot when we move into our house.  I don't even remember half of what we have!!

From May 2009

Sara and Mick now take baths together- I should have started doing that earlier!

From May 2009

We get to hang out outside a lot! Sara loves it!

Sara has also been keeping Paw-Paw's plants hydrated!

Mick loves to lay down and talk to everyone!

On Thursday night, we went to Rhythm on the River.  Sara got a sno cone and wore Paw-Paw's hat!

After we got home, Paw-Paw, Mick, and Sara (who refused to be in the picture) sat outside to listen to more music!

From May 2009

Look how big!!! I can't believe he's already 2 months!!

He just gave us a big smile before this picture- I missed that, but I got this one:

Mick's Baptism and Mother's Day

On Sunday, Fr. Than baptized Mick at Christ the King at LSU.   Fr. Than married Mike and I and we were so happy that he could baptize Mick.

This seems a little odd, but here is a video of the actual baptism. 

After all the commotion, Mick feel asleep on his Nanny

Ok, just look at Sara in the background of this picture- she LOVES Joe and she LOVES that pink tiger (thanks Brouillette's) If you ask her what it is she says "Mike the Tiger" Maybe LSU should consider changing their colors...

Sara was very impressed by Kristin's necklace- what can I say? She is a girl!

After the baptism, we all headed to George's for some lunch!

Sara loved on JP some more- I'm not too sure he enjoyed it!

Mick hung out with his Parrain!

What a whirlwind week topped off by a busy day! Mick was exhausted!!! But I can't think of a better way to spend Mother's Day! It was so wonderful to share our baby's baptism with everyone- we love you!!

What a Week!!

On Wednesday, we woke up at about 3 am, were in a cab by 4, and on the plane by 6am! We flew to New Orleans, rented a car and drove to Lafayette- what a day! Here's a picture of us on the plane- it was Mick's first plane ride (he slept through most of it)!

And the vacation fairy came! 

On Thursday, we woke up bright and early and spent the day house hunting in Baton Rouge.  Sara stayed with Amie and Paw-Paw for the day, but Mick tagged along.  For lunch, we took Mick to The Chimes for the first (but not last) time! Doesn't it look like he is having fun? 

From May 2009

When we got back to Lafayette, we tested out the BOB at Rhythms on the River- looks like a hit! 

From May 2009

Sara and Uncle Nathan walked a little too!

From May 2009

On Friday, we headed BACK to Baton Rouge to take care of some more house business and to visit everyone! Mick got to meet his Nanny! 

From May 2009

And Sara got re-introduced to Mike the Tiger (the real one was sleeping, so we played with the statue!) 

From May 2009

On Saturday morning, Kasie and I ran a 5K- it was Kasie's first and she did a GREAT job- she'll be running marathons in no time :)

Then we spent the day at the Kosik's! Jennifer, Peter, and JP drove Friday night to surpise us and we were very happy to see them!!! It is so wonderful to know that we will get to see everyone so much more often :)  Saturday was so much fun- we just sat around and watched the kids play! I am looking forward to more of that!!!

JP and Sara were two (crazy) peas in a pod!

And we got to visit with the Bennett's!!! It was so great to see them- I just can't believe how big Jackson is!! He will be crawling soon I think- he is growing up so quickly.  Again, I am so glad that we'll be closer so we can see more of him! Look at these two cuties:

Sara showed Jax some love too!

At the end of the day, Kasie gave Sara and JP a well needed scrub down (I have to admit, I took this picture and then left- Aunt Connie, Kasie, and Allison seemed to have bathtime under control!)

What a week! We are so happy to be back in Louisiana and we can't wait to get into our house! YAY!
