Weekend Wrap-Up


I would just like to preface this post with a comment and observation on the precious 13-month old I have.  She has entered the stage where she REFUSES to look at my camera (phone) and absolutely will not crack a smile when I ask (beg and plead and try to bargain) her to. Oh well at least I can look back and know what her serious face looked like at this stage! What else can I do???

We started our weekend going out to lunch with Savannah's favorite 1-year old friends Caroline and Caleb and their mamas, and Savannah wore this homemade outfit! The shirt was actually a 3-month sleep sack that we got as a gift for her.  She has almost no monogrammed clothing (although I love it, I can't justify it cause it's so expensive) and so I wanted to take full advantage of this onesie.  It seemed big when she wore it when she was tiny and now I can see why.  I just cut the sleeves off that had the hand-covers on them and then cut the sack part off and hemmed it to be shirt-length, then sewed up a little matching skirt to go with it.  I had some extra fabric and make a little flower bow too.  :)

Anyway, after lunch, CC was in Little Rock and came to hang out with Savannah while I went to work and then Grandad came over after work, then Birc got home and we all went to my favorite, Izzy's, restaurant and had a great time just hanging out!

[not sure why it looks like SCM has a dent and bruise on her forehead here.   Lighting.]


Then Saturday, Birc and I both had to work in the morning so she went and hung out at Nana and Gran's until after lunch and then she and I just hung out all afternoon waiting on Birc to get home. We ran a few errands and then went out with our good friends for dinner and they came over after and we had a super time!

Pigtails!



Then Sunday we went to church and had a great service, made a really cool wall hanging that I'll show you tomorrow, and made dinner for our friends who just had a baby in December.  Savannah and Charlotte are birthday buddies, exactly one year apart! Charlotte was born on Savannah's birthday!  Birc and Joe went to college together and have been longtime friends and we are thrilled about their precious baby girl.


We also snuck in lots of outdoor time in only 10-minute increments as it is slightly cold and windy still here so Savannah's hands get SO COLD.  




Happy Monday to everybody!

Ugh... I remember that phase. Every so often Delaney or Nate refuse to acknowledge the camera. It will get better before you know it!
