Spring Break 2010

Everyone always said that I would look at Spring Breaks, Summer Vacations, etc. differently now that I have a child. I sure did! I could've cared less about sleeping in because I wanted to spend all of my time with my precious Katie. We had a GREAT Spring Break this year. The first Saturday of Spring Break, I went to Branson with some friends from church and did A LOT of shopping. It was so nice to spend some time with great friends, and I know that Matt enjoyed the one-on-one time with Miss Katie! The next day, we ended up getting about 10 inches of snow - CRAZY! Here is a picture of what our neighborhood looked like.

Cooper LOVED playing in the snow. Check out the video of him "hopping" through the snow!

That same weekend, we were "puppy sitting" Cooper's cousin, Bella. She and Cooper had the best time playing with each other. They ended up tearing Coop's turtle apart from their tug-of-war!

Cooper also had a GREAT time with Katie! He doesn't usually get this much time with her, and I think he enjoyed having someone in the floor to play with him.

On the 23rd, Matt turned 26! We ate dinner at Gusano's Pizza and came back to our house for cake. Matt wanted an ice cream cake from Maggie Moos - YUMMY!

Katie also got her Easter pictures taken, and I got 11 inches cut off of my hair! I don't have any pictures of those on my computer, though!

Katie spent a great deal of time on her playmat and in her exersaucer. Daddy even "hooked" her baby doll up to the bars, so she could look up at it. She enjoyed watching Dora while sitting in her exersaucer. She even learned to stand up while holding onto her excersaucer!

Katie took some really good naps and even started sucking her thumb and slept with her lovey!


Grandma and Grandpa came to visit the last weekend of Spring Break, and Katie had SOOOO much fun with them.

Sunday afternoon, Katie did 3 great things!!!! She held her own bottle for the first time, she giggled out loud (on camera), and she rolled over from her back to her tummy!!!

We really did have a wonderful Spring Break, and I am now counting down the days until summer vacation... 49 days!
