The Easter Bunny

The Easter Bunny was a success.  Yes, there was no smile, but we did not have any tears.  She's not a fan of other people holding her if she doesn't know them.  She just sat there.  

After taking her picture, we grabbed some lunch and went to Dragonflies to exchange a couple of outfits because she didn't have any room to grow in them.  We came home and changed out of her little dress.  She likes being in comfy clothes. I had picked up a pair of bunny ears from World Market for a couple of pics.  She makes a way cuter bunny!

Brody got in on the action.  Of course, he's not a fan.  He makes a cute bunny, too!

First Tooth

This morning Vivian was holding onto the ledge of the coffee table while I was adjusting her leg warmers and she banged her face on the ledge.  Poor baby.  Crying like crazy.  Proud Mom moment here.  I'm surprised she has broken anything yet...knock on wood. 

Anyway, we went into the kitchen and I got a wet bath cloth for her to suck on and she took my finger along with the cloth, and load and behold I felt a tooth.  Little booger wouldn't let me take a look.  She either kept her lip shut tight, stuck out her tongue or throwing her head back away from me.

While she was crying I caught a glimpse.  We have one little tooth on the bottom.

This is the best pic I could get.  She's a fighter!

 

 

 

 She has been a little fussy this week so now we know why.  My baby girl is growing up!  Can't believe you'll be 8 months old tomorrow!!

 

My Little Valentine

What a great Valentine we had.  Mainly because we had our little Valentine, Vivian!  Odd to think this time last year I was pregnant with her.  Brian got her the onesie she's wearing as a Valentine gift last year.  I'm surprise, kinda, she can still wear it since its 3-6 month size and this little stinker will be 8 months next Saturday.

Isn't she just the cutest!!  We exchanged our cards and gifts before heading to our early 3:30 dinner at the Little Dipper. Daddy Vivian, eh hem, forgot to get Mommy a card.  I told her she better remember next year!  

 Brian opened his card and gift from Vivian first.

Vivian says, "I recognize those little tootsies!"  Side note:  I wasn't planning on painting on so many hearts, but Vivian was getting frustrated with me and kicked her heel on the bottom.  We had to do a little cover up :)  Mommy got Daddy a picture of us to haven in his office.

Next we let Vivian open her cards.  I didn't get her a gift.  I know, mean Mommy.  She will get something next year for sure!

Card from Daddy

Card from Mommy

Brian got me a sweet card and a charm for my Pandora bracelet.  I told Vivian when she's older I will give her my bracelet since it was all about her.

Afterwards we headed downtown.  I really didn't eat much before going because I knew I was going to eat myself sick.  Of course, I did.  I can't remember the last time I ate at the Little Dipper.  Gotta take full advantage!  

We started with Baja Cheddar Fondue.  So good!

As the main course we had their 'Instant Karma,' a combination of filet mignon, chicken and shrimp.  Delicious!  We used chicken broth to cook the food to make it healthier.

  

Then on to my favorite.  Chocolate!  We of course we had the Supreme Dipper.  You have to have the cookies, marshmallows, rice krispie treats in the mix. You can't just did fruit.  That's just boring.  We dipped our goodies in Turtle...caramel and dark chocolate topped with nuts.  Dark chocolate and nuts are healthy, right?

I can't believe we ate most of this.  I don't care for the cream puffs, so that wasn't touched.  I did eat ALL the marshmallows, oreo cookies, pretzels, a chocolate chip cookie cake and half the heart shaped sugar cookie.  We had to waddle out of the restaurant.  

The best part of this Valentine was spending it with my two favorites!

 

I hope everyone had a lovely Valentine's Day.  This marks in my book the BEST yet!  XOXO!!!!
