Friday Favorites {hint it isn't the weather}

Why is it that Friday's are the only days I get to post?! I mean seriously it is a real struggle! between now and the last post we have been up to a whole lot of fun stuff!!!

{1} We went to Florida! We love our quick trips to the Sunshine State! I'll do a whole post on the trip next week sometime but it was one of the best trips yet! Here we are on the plane coming home!


{ 2} When we got home we had two days of fantastic weather! We most definitely took advantage of it! I have a goal to take family walks at least 4 nights a week this summer! Elliot loves it now that she can walk Keebler. We live on one big loop which is just shy of a mile so we walk that!


All four of our babies! I have had Keebler our small dog for 10 years now! He is starting to lose hair on his back end which makes me kind of worried about him! 


{3} Dixie got her little ankle braces! They seem to be helping her stability and lets hope this girl gets on track to start walking! 



{4} Elliot has some crazy, crazy hair! I just love it! Sometimes I completely forget to "check" it before we leave the door but I'll take pictures and not look at her hair. This ones one from before daycare. HAHA!

Speaking of hair, Dixie's is getting so long! Its crazy how different these girls are, body wise and personality wise. It took Elliot till at least four years old to get this length in her hair! 

{5} I've been trying so hard to find some cute clothes and I keep striking out! I don't know if it is the style or what, but it just doesn't work with me! Yesterday I hit the jackpot at Herbergers! I'm currently rocking this dress today! Leggings and all because it was 31 degrees this morning! We have been either 70 degrees or 30 degrees lately. It's awful!

Five Friday Favorites

Linking up for my favorite post of the week!




{1} Weather

The weather has been SO gorgeous lately! We are definitely taking advantage of it! It's supposed to get to 72 tomorrow. Ummm hi there sweet sweet spring time! We have even been practicing our golf in the front yard! Nothing is better than watching the sunset in this hammock on the deck!




{2} Sisters

The girls have always been close. There is nothing that Elliot loves more than being a big sister and there is no one Dixie loves more than her big sister! Watching them pay together is a definite favorite! 




{3} Age 4.5 years old

Seriously this age is the best. Elliot is still a little kid yet I find myself having real conversations with her. I cannot get enough of her, and her hair.... Seriously, the girl has some crazy hair and it fits her personality to a "T". I was working out and she came in decked out with her shopping cart, purse, diaper bag, and baby to head to the cookie bank, AKA our bank that has free cookies. HA! Wednesday she had wacky Wednesday! 





{4} Christmas Presents

I'm finally getting around to putting away the last of the Christmas presents. Is that crazy or what?!? I absolutely love serving wear! It doesn't get used much, but I just love it all! I get so excited to pull it out for each and every get together. This Christmas my mom got me some fantastic Mud Pie serving wear and the sayings are just so cute I wanted to find a place to keep them on display when they aren't being used. I think I found the perfect set up! 



{5} Answers

Dixie has been going through some evaluations because she is behind for her gross motor skills. She has low tone so we pushed it off thinking she just needed some extra time. Through this process we have realized that she's not just behind in gross motor but also in some other areas. She will need Occupational Therapy and Physical Therapy. She also got fitted for some little braces for her feet. This should help her feel more confident! They actually are pretty cute for braces ;) I'm listing this as a favorite because it actually feels good to have some answers and direction to go now. We all know she will be up to speed in no time, just a little more effort on our parts.

Her booties will look like this, and of course we did the fairy-tale print!



Nothing will hold back this cutie :) We know she is happy and healthy and we thank God for that!
