The rest of the story...

I know I already did 2 posts about our weekend.

But, I'm going to share the entire story :)

Thursday - Josh got rained out at work, so we headed to Pensacola to get Wendy & Savannah to spend the weekend with us! We saw their amazing new house and then went to Nikko's for Hibatchi with their family :)


Friday - We got up early and headed to the zoo, had lunch at Subway, went to the exploreum, then we walked around Downtown Mobile.
We looked at several "monuments" and studied up on our history! ;)

{Another post on that to come this Summer!We're planning a History Day with the girls!}

Luckily, K was wore out from all the fun...

So she got in a very good nap while we drove around before heading to the theaters!

We saw 'Shrek 3D'! K was good about 1/2 the time, then she was OVER her busy day.

Good thing this Shrek wasn't my favorite-HA!

Josh had praise&worship practice, so we all just hung out with him and then went to Mexican for dinner-YUM!

Saturday - Josh got up early to go fishing.

Me and the girls stayed in bed until about 8:30, then got up and had a good breakfast.

We had plans to go to the Blueberry festival and to a youth rally, but K had different plans!
She was beyond ill, seriously!

We decided to head to Old Navy and then we picked up McD's for lunch!
We came home and ate watermelon :)

Then, I cooked some yummy Chinese food for dinner.
K went to bed and we stayed up and watched some movies :)

Sunday - Josh got called into work, so just us girls went to church.

K gave us a big scare! She loves standing up in the pew and looking at everybody. She has learned to "rock" herself, too. Yesterday, she decided to mix the two and BAM!

 She hit her little mouth on the bench.

She had big tears streaming down her face and was crying louder than ever before.

She finally let me open her mouth and she was bleeding! :(

I panicked!! I got up to carry her out and a man made a face at her and she started laughing and clapping. SO, I knew she was OK! :)

After church, the girls and I went to Cracker Barrel for lunch.

She really enjoyed playing...and eating NON-eatable things..

K got her first meal at a restaurant :)

She ate about 1/4 of the grilled cheese and a pretty good bit of the apple sauce :)

We came home, got on our lounged clothes and at more watermelon!

The girls left around 3:30 and K fell asleep and slept until Josh got home about 5:15!

She was one tired girl :)

Our Weekend

Friday night was Josh's 14th day, so he was off work. We stayed around the house most of the day.

{before we headed out for the day}
That afternoon we headed to Bass Pro so he could spend his giftcard my sister gave him for his BDAY!

We were in the for what seemed like FOREVER! He wants to make sure he gets just the right things!HA!

{the hat says 'MY FIRST FISHING HAT' - I'm thinking about getting it because it was too cute and would be perfect for when we go with Josh saltwater fishing!}

After we left Bass Pro, we met our Pastor & family at Chili's!

Then, headed to their house to have rootbeer floats and watch Alvin & The Chipmunks
Saturday morning Josh got up and fixed up some breakfast and we layed around for a little while.

Then, we went grocery shopping.

My mom & sister was at our house when we got back!
Us girls headed to HobLob, Sonic, and Burlington Coat Factor for a little shopping.

We got back home and Josh cooked up some low boil{shrimp,Conecuh sausage,onions,and red potatoes}
It was DELISH!!!
We had to pick up my sister's fiance around 9 that night, so K stayed her with my mom because it was way past her bedtime!

Sunday, we went to church and then headed home to eat lunch.
We ate fast so we could head to Dauphin Island!
Josh & Blakely went saltwater fishing and us girls just chilled on the beach!

She didn't stay in the water too long because it is still too cold!

Instead, she hung out in her pool ... with no water! HA!

When we got home Nana, Aunt Heather, & Blakeley headed back home and we headed to Church!

Today, Josh was back on dayshift-PRAISE THE LORD!
I cleaned up, while trying to keep Kaidence entertained.

Josh is home from work giving Kaidence her bath, and we're about to eat dinner and watch TV!

Easter Sunday 2010

We had a wonderful Easter!

I took the girls to church, Josh stayed home even though he REALLY wanted to go. He was so tired because he has been on 12 hour shifts, 7 days a week for about a month or so! It finally caught up with him and he literally couldn't get out of the bed :(
After church, I cooked a big meal for us. We had pork loin, mashed potatoes, macaroni&cheese, peas, corn, and jiffy cornbread muffins! It was delish :)
While we were waiting on Josh to get out of bed, I took Miss K outside to get some pictures in her outfit she wore Saturday to the Easter egg hunt.

I wanted to get some in her dress she wore to church, but she had other plans. She was so tired because she was up Saturday night with a fever of 102.8! :( I gave her tylenol & motrin and it broke. I think it was because a new little toofie broke through her gum! She now has 2 teeth :)

When Josh got up, we gave her what the Easter Bunny had left for her..

{stuffed bunny, 'K' shirt, 8 crotched colored headbands, 2 flower headbands, 2 bow headband, 1 zebra daisy headband, Praise Baby DVD, Max Lucado 2-disc DVD, pig mirror/rattler, touch & feel "Little Chick" book, and a mesh feeder!

She was SO excited when I emptied the basket around her! Her favorite is the pig, she actually "picked it out" on a shopping trip a few weeks ago - I think she remembered it :)

{Nana also got her a dress, shoes, and stuffed lamb from Old Navy last weekend!}

Josh left for work and I took Wendy & Savannah to meet their mom. It was a lot of fun having them for the past week :)

I was finally able to get some pictures of Kaidence in her Easter dress today. These aren't the greatest because she was much more interested in all the noises outside :)

Hope you all had a wonderful Resurrection Sunday :)

First Easter Egg Hunt

Today was another first for Kaidence! :)

Besides celebrating her Daddy's birthday, she had her first Easter egg hunt.

She was asleep at first..

But, she realized there were alot of kids making alot of noise so she HAD to see what was going on

She found 3 eggs with some help from Mommy & Cousin Wendy! :)

Our Pastor's wife, "Wesa", loves to love on Miss K!

It was a beautiful day for hunting eggs! :)
It did get pretty hot though, so we headed inside to cool off..

{I realize I look like a complete dork with my squinted eyes..but, her face is too much!}

These two master minds were responsible for hiding the eggs.

They acted like there were on a military mission or something, ha!

When they came in to cool off, they of course had to start drumming..

They used random candies - ha!

I have a video on FB, but I can't load it on here :(

{Josh & Our Pastor's Son - Jon!}

...I think I hear the Easter Bunny! ;)
Can't wait to see what goodies he brought for Miss K!

Weekend Wrapup.

Friday - Josh actually got off work! :) We spent the day together and then picked up Wendy & Savannah. We went to Logan's for dinner and then went to the mall, Old Navy, Home Depot, & Office Max.
Saturday - Me & the girl's went out "window shopping" so Josh could sleep. He went to work & my mom & Amy came down. Amy brought Miss K cute new pair of overalls.

After they got here, we went to Old Navy and Wal-Mart. Miss K decided she was not going to sleep and stayed up until about 1am!

Sunday - Miss K got dedicated. It was perfect! :)

Today - Me & the girls have been in our pajamas being lazy all day. ha!

Hope y'all had a wonderful weekend! :)

Words added.

Yesterday, after my random post, we all took a much needed nap and then I cooked the tomato basil soup. Oh my word! It was delicious. Not only that, it was super easy & super cheap. So score, score, score! We went to church last night and for the first time ever Kaidence was actually 'good' during the service. I took her to the nursery the last 5 minutes or so because she was fussy because she needed a diaper change. I am so proud to not be "THAT MOM" that lets her baby scream during the entire.church.service!

Today, me & K are just taking it easy. Hubby is at work, where he will be until 7:00 pm! He is on 7-12s - not fun! However, that does give me & K lots of time to watch 'Praise Baby' - ha! We are actually going to go for a walk after I finish this post.

{**This contains TMI! Do not read if you don't like hearing about baby poopy!**}

As stated in my last post, she has a problem pottying. I hear some people say their child goes 2 - 3 times per day. NOT Kaidence. More like once every 2-3 days. Her pediatrician knows, but he's not worried because when she goes it's not "rabbit balls". To help her go, we give her lots of sugar water. I gave her some yesterday, but she didn't go. I knew she hadn't been in a few days, though. SO, I gave her 1 cube of homemade applesauce & 1/2 jar of pears. Boy Oh Boy! Mistake! ha!
She was swinging this morning & I smelled this horrible smell. I let her finish & when I got her out ... I saw it. EVERYWHERE!

{edited out her business, but that is seriously how much was on there. YUCK!}

I loved that sleeper, too. I have it soaking in some hot water right now. Hopefully, that will help it not to stain.

Tonight I am cooking skillet ravioli. I posted the recipe on my recipe blog. It's also delicious & super easy!
