my weekend with gampa and grammie

gampa and grammie came to visit over the weekend and we had lots of fun going to a community-wide garage sale, eating frozen yogurt and smores, venturing out to tiny town and playing outside. even though they helped mommy and daddy with a few household and yard chores, they always made time to play with me. thanks gampa and grammie, i had lots of fun. i love you and miss you already!

i loved going on the train with gampa and grammie

my visit to tiny town - the buildings

it was so fun to go through tiny town and see all the buildings. many of them even had openings that let me go inside the buildings. i especially liked all the buildings with cars and motorcycles.

enjoying the sites with grammie. this one had vintage cars

ringing the bell...hello, is anyone here?

i had fun going in and out of buildings

guess who's in church...

my visit to tiny town - the train ride

today i went to tiny town with mommy, daddy, gampa and grammie. the weather was beautiful and there was so much to see and do. one of my favorite activities was the tiny town railroad. i'll have more fun pics of gampa and grammie's visit soon.

i don't usually like hats, but i didn't take this one off all day

my very own train conductor hat

getting ready for a fun train ride

in a few years, i'll be able to ride in the caboose

enjoying the sights with daddy

i wasn't happy about having to get off the train

the train conductor noticed how upset i was so i got a special treat

the conductor even let me sound the train horn

it wasn't easy to see the train go by without me on it

but gampa and grammie took me on a second ride

my second train ride...thanks gampa and grammie!

thanks gampa and grammie

my gampa and grammie left for albuquerque today. i had such a fun time with them during the week as we celebrated christmas, visited ikea, welcomed the new year and had lots of fun in my playroom. i love you gampa and grammie and i can't wait to see you again.

happy mommy's day!

this is a special mommy's day wish for all the fabulous mommies in my life - my own, lula, my grandmas and greats, and even the mommies of all my friends! i hope each of you enjoyed your wonderful days and felt special and blessed to be the mommy of so many great kiddos (even if they are all grown up!). i love you all.

and here is a special quote mommy asked me to share with you. it really touched her heart and hopes it touches yours, too.

“Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.” ~Elizabeth Stone

gift from grammie

grammie came into town on saturday for a conference and spent the day with us. we went to the highlands area of denver, had lunch, enjoyed yummy cupcakes from happy cakes and walked around to see the different shops. she even bought me some fun toys to play with from real baby. i get to see her a few more times before she leaves. thanks grammie.

fun with my new toy

child of God

this weekend was a very special weekend in my life. mommy and daddy knew before i was even born that they would one day have me baptized in our church, cherry creek presbyterian church. well, this past sunday was the big day! gampa, grammie, and greats all got to come and be part of it...and it was really neat to actually be baptized by my gampa (a very special honor that our church was gracious to allow), just like my cousins jackson and anabel were years ago.
