No Bib Spaghetti

Somehow we got out of the bib habit. Maybe it is because of all of the cute outfits ruined by drool bibs (months and MONTHS of drool bibs!). Who knows. But when we feed Cal meals in her high chair, we don't use bibs.

Even tonight, spaghetti night.

Callie watching Callie

The latest obsession of our little toddler is watching pictures and videos of herself on the computer. And by obsession, I mean OBSESSION.

It usually goes down like this:
1) Callie spots the laptop and starts frantically signing "Please."
2) Knowing that a boatload of whining will ensue if I'm not fast enough, I frantically open the computer up, open the video folder, and get a video going.
3) Callie crawls into my lap.
4) As soon as the video is over (anywhere between 30 second and a minute and a half later), I get the frantic "More" sign until I close the current video and wait the five seconds it takes to open up and start the next one.
5) Repeat steps 1-4. A lot of times. Because she finds herself hilarious.

Oh, I almost forgot steps 6 and 7.

6) I decide that we've had enough of the videos, sign "All done", close the laptop up and put it away.
7) MASSIVE TODDLER MELTDOWN.

Fun times! Why do I give into this silliness? Because it is guaranteed cuddle time that I usually don't get with our on-the-go little girl.

A Lengthy Weekend Wrap-Up

The weekend can be summed up into four F nouns.

Fun. Family. Friends. Food.

Saturday- Party!!!!

Sunday- Easter Service, Lunch and delicious birthday cake at the condo with all of the Hendersons (except Auntie Laura), and Dinner and delicious fruit pizza at G-ma and G-pa's.

And lastly, it was 2 years ago today that we found out we were having a baby! I started the Baby Goose Blog the next day.

Hope everyone has a wonderful Easter!

Party!

We went to Nana and Papa's 60th Anniversary Party today! It was so fun- LOTS and LOTS of people! Callie was pretty shy most of the time, which is the newest phase (well...that, along with some pretty ragin' temper tantrums when she doesn't get what she wants!).

All of the 2nd generation cousins were there, so we had to do another couch picture! And it was pretty hilarious. I took about 10 pictures, here are a few that were the best.

Here they are: Zoey, Callie, Liam, Everett, Wakelyn, Seamus
(Jeanne or Simone- did I get the triplets right? I guessed...)



Then, Nana and Papa joined them on the couch!


And here is a cute picture of Callie hanging out outside with Grandma and Auntie Cathleen!

Tree

Almost exactly 16 months ago we got a call from our neighbors saying that the city put signs on our block that they were going to be removing the tree in front of our house. On Christmas Eve day. And therefore, we had to move our other car. When we were in the hospital after just having a baby.

I was in la-la land so Chris dealt with the situation. And ultimately I think Dan came over and moved the car for us.

Anyway, today, almost exactly 16 months later, we finally got a new tree.


Just in time for Callie's 2nd Earth Day, I guess.
