The Smile

Zoo

We are loving spring break! So far a trip to the zoo, Thai food, playing at the park, and time with Eric.

Janie

She is almost 6 weeks old! At her 1 month appointment she weighed 9 lb. 9 oz. She smiles now and I can't get enough.

Library

Eric only has one final exam so we came to St. Louis to join cousins during their spring break for a week of fun. Not only is it fun to see everyone but it is nice to have some help with Blake and Janie.

Today I was feeding Janie when Blake woke up from his nap. Eric's sister and mom took him and some cousins to a nearby library. I met up with them a little while later.

Janie was being pretty fussy so I was bouncing her while trying to listen to little nieces read. I was also trying to keep an eye on Blake. He started pulling books off of shelves and dropping them on the floor so I headed towards him so he would stop making a mess. He gave me a good smile and then took off running. One of his cousins chased after him. Then he really thought we were playing a game and he started screaming high pitch as he ran. I was chasing behind with crying Janie. Everyone in the library was watching us. Everyone. I finally got Blake by the arm and he started screaming. (It's not a mad or mean scream, it is a playful one. He recently started doing this and I don't know how to make him stop) He also dropped to the ground so I lost my grip and then he was off again. By this time I see my mother and sister-in-law frantically running toward me like the had been trying to figure out where we were. Don't worry, I finally got him. I knew it was funny while it was happening but I was slightly embarrassed. I think the kicker was what he was wearing. Not quite sure why he was wearing his pajama bottoms and knitted sweater to the library. I like to call them his Shrek pants.


I love my little Shrek.

Family Pictures

I found Blake like this yesterday. Talking on the phone and wearing his "hat-ty."

Thanks Mom for the outfit and Kim for the bows!
