The hunt for a mean and inconsiderate spider....

Well.... if you have not heard Caroline was bitten by a spider over the weekend. It has been pretty exciting and dramatic around here. If you do not know Caroline very well, she is just a little dramatic (I mean who says it's not ok to be dramatic?) I'm not sure where she gets it from (ME, I know). Anyways, we took her to the doctor and they say se is going to be ok. The medicine is already starting to work. Just a heads up, if you see Caroline in the next few weeks, don't think you can just walk by her and not ask her about her bite. She will make sure she points it out to you, show her sympathy and if you are lucky enough you will get to kiss it. She is the absolute best!! I attached a picture for you to see how gross her bite really is. Poor thing. I hope that spider is hiding in a really dark place because if I find him, I will probably actually man up and step on him (and you know I do not kill anything). I have also attached some recent pictures of us playing at the park, learning how to shave in the bathtub and daddy reading one of her favorite books. Enjoy!!

Staring May off right!!

May is off to a great start! We went to Mason's first birthday party (Caroline's little boy-friend) and had a wonderful time. Caroline even got to take a whack at her first pinata. That same weekend we all went to the Dallas Aquarium. It was a blast and Caroline loved it. I think her favorite animal was the penguins and the birds. She even got to feed blueberries to a few birds. What a great weekend!

Nana's trip to Dallas!!!

We had a wonderful Spring Break!! Nana (Mary) came to Dallas to spend some time with us. We of course took her to the Arboretum on Friday before the blizzard hit on Saturday. Steve left work a little early on Friday and met us there. We of course had a wonderful time. Here are a few pictures from our day. Get ready... more flower pictures :0)

Flower time!

So... Grams, Caroline and I went to the Dallas Bloom at the arboretum today. The weather was beautiful and the flowers were amazing! On Mondays the arboretum has a petting farm for the kids so we had to take Caroline. She LOVED it and was not scared at all. I think she would stay in there all day chasing after the animals. The chickens were her favorite. We tried to get some pictures of Caroline in front of the flowers but she would not sit still for one minute. You would see other kiddos posing and smiling for their parents but oh-no, not little miss Caroline. She wanted to run and dig in the dirt. Love our girl!

Sunday Funday at the Arboretum

Sunday Funday at the Arboretum

Well... the weather was finally nice enough to head to the Arboretum. We packed a picnic lunch and headed out into the sunshine. We had an absolute blast! Caroline learned how to run down hills at full speed, we taught her to roll down the hills (we only got a few stares) and she learned to ride iron deer (while making the "click" "click" sound with her mouth. That is her noise for animals. She also had to stop and smell every flower (we were there forever). Caroline has a small obsession for flowers. We had a great time and can't wait to go back.
