my precious dedication

Today I was able to dedicate my beautiful Ella to my precious Jesus. Words cannot express how important and special this day was to me. I feel like it was my opportunity to say Ella is reserved for God and her foundation is in Him. The service was beautiful and my heart was overjoyed. What better way to start off you life, than to dedicate it to the who knows your every move, every thought, your everything. I am so blessed to surrounded by such a great group of Christ followers. I am thankful for the impact they will have on my children. I praise Him "for I am fearfully and wonderfully made!"

Today my sister from lakewood came into town with her roommate David!We headed to devine farms (thanks to hope http://hopefilledhome.blogspot.com/ ) We had a wonderful time decorating a CHRISTMAS ornament, riding on the barrel train, and playing in the corn maze! After what seems to be weeks of rain and cold weather it was a GORGEOUS day to spend with family!

Molly and the Great Easter Egg Hunt!

Molly had a great time at our church Easter egg hunt! She had her nose painted like a bunny, decorated and devoured and egg shaped cookie, and she got to to meet the Easter bunny! I will say her favorite part was probably the egg hunt. At first she picked up one egg at a time put them in the bag and then put them back on the ground. Then she figured out that she could leave them in the bag and collect more eggs. After she collected all the eggs in her little corner she walked over to Riley and started piling all his eggs in his lap. She was just trying to be helpful :)

Molly's favorite place to be in outside!
Mommy and Molly. Molly always seems to be on a table.

She found her first Hershey Kiss. Needless to say she love it!

2 GREAT DAYS :)

Molly had TWO great days of fun with friends. Wednesday we had an all day "play date" with Harrison! I have to say, these two have a blast together and are really GREAT at taking everything out of every cabinet! It was a good experience to have two kids:) But I will tell you, I still don't feel prepared.






Here is Molly and Torry in "Molly's Cabinet"

Then Torray and Bethany came over Thursday and spent the whole day with us!!! The girls came grocery shopping with me and helped occupy Molly. Then we came home and went for a walk. Molly's favorite thing is to run around outside! She loves it!!!







Molly loves to swing!

Molly meets Ravioli

I figure I should start this blog out the only way molly would have it MESSY!!! Tonight I was cleaning my kitchen while Molly was eating her ravioli, she was pretty content while eating so I continued to clean. I looked over to check on her only to see that she was painting her hair with sauce and noodles. She laughed as she covered her arms and entire face with tomato sauce. I have to admit as cute as she is I did not find it very funny. I figure the best thing to do would be to share it with you with pictures!!! So enjoy!
