Ready for Spring!

We've been a little preoccupied lately and I haven't dedicated much time to my blog. It seems like the entire month of March we were all dealing with ear infections, fevers, coughs, sniffles, etc. It has been a long month and we're ready to start feeling better!


Elise in her pjs...resting up and trying to get healthy!



Elise in her pjs again...at least she's in good spirits!



Since we've spent the majority of the month cooped up inside being sick, we definitely have Spring fever! I can't believe it's practically April already and Easter is this coming weekend! We're hosting Easter at our house this year so I've been busy preparing the menu and grocery shopping. We're really looking forward to celebrating; holidays are so much more fun with kids!! :)

Swimming Lessons!

This past Saturday we started swimming lessons for Elise. I know that some of you are rolling your eyes because she's only 16 months old, but the main purpose of the lessons at this age is to get Elise used to the water and equip her with the skills she needs to get to the side of the pool if God forbid she ever fell in. The first lesson was a success; Elise loved it! We learned to kick our feet and scoop our hands. Here are some pictures of our little fish...













We can't believe that Elise will be 16 months old in a couple days. She seems to be learning something new everyday which is so much fun! It's hard to believe this was only 16 months ago...




...And here we are today!
