Make new friends...
But keep the old...one is silver and the other gold!
I still remember this song they taught us in grade school about making friends. I never pass up the opportunity to make new friends! You never know how they will enrich your life...
This past Saturday night we accepted a dinner invitation to one of Andy's coworker's house for dinner. We had been saying, 'we need to get together' and I'm so glad we finally connected and set a date. They have an adorable 9 month old little boy named Zeb, who Rea loved playing with... or should I say, loved testing her 'sharing' skills with. :)
Dinner was an amazing recipe that had us going back for seconds and me needing the recipe... and after we finished off the night with brownie sundaes, we enjoyed watching the kids hang out. Thanks to the Lumley's for a great night!
Let's play...
Going in for a smoochie~
"Um...mom I don't really want to share my blankie..."
After much prodding by us, she finally relented...

Cousin Lovin
For the past 2 weekends, peanut has been lovin her cousin time. Last weekend we headed north and peanut was spoiled by her out of town cousins. Last night we had a sleepover at our place with buddy and sissy, peanut's (local) cousins. Peanut is blessed to have so many cousins that love her!

Toddler Livin'
Thanks to the recent holiday, I got to experience being a SAHM for the day. Nothing beats toddler snuggles with a hot cup of coffee to start the day. We then met our friends for some pizza and spent the afternoon at Backyard Adventures.
Seriously- how did I not think of this concept? Build a bunch of play sets and charge for kids to come play on them. Indoors. In Iowa. Genius!
Rea had a blast hanging with her friends and even though we forfeited a nap, I'm so glad I got to spend the day with my toddler.
A few pics:
Three cheers for pizza!
Did great with a straw- and loved fruit punch!
Let's play!
Swingin...
...and off she goes!

Don't sweat the small stuff
Or so they say...
If you know me, you know that all I do is sweat the small stuff.
Things don't go according to plan? Nails on a chalkboard I say. So when a few household travesties occurred, coupled with adult flu and toddler flu, my sanity took a nosedive. Thankfully for me, my parents have 'super hero' radar and headed down south to help us out.
My mom, peanut and I did some retail therapy while in just a few short hours, my step dad and Andy fixed our money pit.
*Garage door now works (peanut learned a new vocab last week, not toddler friendly)
*New light sensor installed in the garage so we (and by we, I mean I) don't have to worry about breaking my neck trying to reach for the light switch
*New picture hung in the family room
*Favorite light socket above the kitchen sink fixed
*Disposal cleaned out
*New piping fixed under the sink
*NEW SINK!
All is well in the W household this week, we're on the mend... no appliances are acting out in defiance, and I'm reminding myself to not sweat the small stuff.
