"Get 'em Mamma!"

One day there was a spider on the ceiling. We usually don't have very many spiders in the house so it's a big deal to Halle when there is one. Halle noticed the spider and said to me, "get 'em mamma!" Well, I wasn't about to stand my pregnant self up on a chair in the middle of the kitchen to kill a spider so i just said, "no Halle, moms are scared of spiders." She got this cute little expression on her face and ran to the bathroom to get a tissue. She came running back into the kitchen and with a proud little look she said, "I get 'em mamma!" So she pushed a chair under the spider and tried for several minutes to get the spider, even though it was several feet out of her reach, the whole time saying, "reach! reach!" thinking that she would eventually reach far enough to get that spider. Every once in a while she would look over at me and with a proud expression say, "I get 'em mamma!" Oh what would I do without my brave little spider killer to get those spiders that moms are scared of :) What a cutie.

"Bake?"

Halle asks me to "bake?" several times a day. She loves being in the kitchen helping me cook. It doesn't matter if it is cookies or soup or anything else, she just loves being a little chef!

Sunday Stroll

Today after church we went for a little walk around Afton in the beautiful sunshine :)

Halle had to stop to give the bears on Main Street some hugs and kisses.

Kim insisted on a prego picture so here it is. Me at 7 1/2 months pregnant. And yes, I do feel as big as I look, our little guy is getting to be a very big boy!

It was another beautiful Spring day :)

Spring

Ah yes, spring at last...ok so maybe there is a ton a snow still and it was only 30-something degrees, but the sun was shining and it felt like Spring :) So we took full advantage and spent the afternoon outside. Halle has been learning how to ride her bike inside for the last few weeks so she was so excited to give it a go outside on the road and sidewalks.

Halle is always getting into my shoes and she loves strutting around in my red high heels. She will beg me to take her picture and loves to pose for the camera, she is such a girl! And then of course I have to blog about it because she thinks it is the coolest thing to see her picture on the computer. :)
