juliana LOVING the disney stuffed animals...

jules...one year and counting

juliana turned one in january...she's really starting to shed her baby face and look more like a little girl...i got to go visit for a week this month and it gets harder and harder to leave...

jules favorite thing to do is sneak into mommy's purse and take everything out...one item at a time...pausing, of course, to inspect each item...she's trying to figure out why she hasn't gotten to spend this toys-r-us gift card yet...


aunt kel kel has taught her the "kiss lips" look very well...


pretty cool to be able to go barefoot the first of march...



jules first easter egg hunt...



so excited daddy got to be home for the weekend of the egg hunt!



seems the dumping of of mommy's purse (she also does this with every toy bin she has, and anything else that has "stuff" in it...it MUST be emptied) has carried over to her crackers...

a small gathering...

here's just a few pix from our march family birthday party at mom and dad's on saturday night...not everyone could come, but we still had a houseful...it was really fun to be together...








age has nothing to do with snowball fights...

evidently a little snow brings out the kid in some people...i'm not naming names...but my "much" older sister and my husband (yah, he's "much" older than me too, and i like to bring it up every chance i get!) decided an inch or two of snow called for some romping in the front yard...oh, and some snowball throwing...i don't think we "declared" a winner...but somebody got one right in the face...too bad i missed that photo opportunity...right, linda?!?!



somebody, and again, i'm not naming names...got a little "winded" from that 6 minute snowball fight...hmmm, wonder who it was??

rain today...snow tomorrow...

so, we had pretty mild weather when we got to birmingham on tuesday, and by friday and saturday it pretty much rained all day, both days...puddles everywhere...creeks overflowing...still in the 70's...we said "whatever" when we saw "snow storms" on the news for sunday morning.......so, here's some pix i took of "whatever"... ;o)
