Arizona Fun!

This Spring Break Rose and I traveled to Arizona to visit my grandma and grandpa. It was the perfect little vacation. I woke up every morning played with Rose, worked out, then laid in the sun while Rose cuddled with her great grandma and grandpa. I learned on vacation that my grandpa is quite the cook/baker. He made me waffles with strawberry sauce, cinnamon apple pancakes, chocolate chip cookies, a turkey dinner, and chicken and wild rice soup, my goal was to lose some weight, but not possible with his cooking! 

Rose LOVED the pool. The moment I stepped in the water with her she was so happy laughing and splashing. I am looking forward to pool days at my dad's this summer!

I could not believe how great Rose did on the plane. We took 4 planes total and she did amazing on all of them. She would usually fall asleep right away and wake up happy towards the end. 

It was so nice spending time with my grandma and grandpa and seeing them with Rose. Next year Kevin and I are planning to make a family trip back to Arizona. 

Here are pictures from our wonderful vacation!

Thank you Grandma and Grandpa for a great 4 days!! We are looking forward to seeing you guys in May :) Love you!

Easter Weekend

What a weekend! Kevin, Rose, and I had plans with family Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. We are all extremely tired and worn out! Saturday night we went to Between the Buns in South Bend with the Herritys. Today we went to mass, brunch, to my grandmas, and then to my mom's. Rose is such an awesome baby! She smiles and talks to everyone she is around, and does not mind who is holding her. We are truly so blessed! It was very fun celebrating Easter for the first time as a family of three and starting our own traditions.

Yay!

Rose slept trough the night for the first time! She went to bed at 9:00 and woke up at 7:00. She did whine once, but after giving her the paci she went right back to sleep. Although we don't sleep through the night, checking on her several times, we are so glad our sweet girl finally is!

Happy Birthday Emily and Poppi!

Tonight we went to Dave and Beth's to celebrate Emily and Poppi's birthday. It was so fun spending time with everyone. I can't believe Emily is already six! Here are pictures from tonight: 

Poppi is so funny!

Twins!

Uncle Coley is so funny!

Tonight we went to my dad's and got to hang out with Coley. He hasn't seen Rose since Christmas and she just loved him! She smiled and laughed at him all night long. She was in the best mood tonight talking and playing with everyone :)
