Fathers Day

This is the cake that I made for Fathers Day/Brad's Birthday (which is Monday). It looks a little messy I think, but I was frosting it this morning while trying to entertain Olivia who was playing on the floor, or actually just whining because I wasn't holding her, and trying to keep the little orange kitten from climing up my legs every 5 seconds. So anyways, this is as good as it gets! It is a strawberry cake, with strawberry frosting, with strawberry slices in the middle and topped off with strawberries, at Brad's request. If you can't tell he really likes strawberries! I hope it tastes better then it looks! I will be sure to let everyone know :) Olivia made him a cute little hand print and a very cute card, for Fathers Day, which I of course helped with. Click on the card and it should enlarge the image so you can read it!

Here is her beautiful hand print!

Movie Night

Last night Brad and I had a movie night. I had been given free movie tickets for Christmas from work which we hadn't used yet. So we dropped Olivia off at Grandma and Grandpa Ferguson's house and we set off for some much needed "us" time. We first stopped by Wegmans and went to the bulk candy section and got a whole bunch of gummy worms and bears like we were little kids! We saw The Strangers. This movie was totally scary and I wanted to leave about 20 minutes into the show, but we didn't. Brad kept joking during the movie and saying he had to go to the bathroom but I wouldn't let him go and leave me alone! I held his hand the whole time and clung to him during scary parts like we were teenagers again! Even though it was scary it was really fun to get some alone time and feel like we were teenagers again for a couple of hours!

Swimming video

This is the video of Olivia's first swimming experience. Isn't she cute? She loved kicking and splashing. She even splashed herself in the face many times and didn't even care! I think she is going to be my little fish!

Summer!

So I think summer is finally here! That means picnics, suntanning, swimming, and playing outside! This past Saturday was Olivia's first time in the swimming pool. She loved it! She kicked her little feet, splashed with her hands, and played with her rubber duckies. It was so much fun! I am so glad that she loves the pool because I love it just as much. The part she wasn't too happy about was when I was loading her up with sunscreen, but she got over that when I was done. Sunday we went to Grandpa's house and she sat outside on the deck playing with her toys, and enjoying the breeze. She even ate some ice cream! Today we also went to Aunt Cathy's house and went swimming. Olivia took a 2 hour nap outside on the lounge chair under the shady tree. I think she loved the sound of the breeze and the birds. While she was napping I got to lay on a raft in the pool and get a little sun (burn of course). It was very relaxing!

My newest TV obession.

Have you ever seen Jon and Kate + eight? If you haven't you should really try to catch the show. It is on all the time on TLC. They have a set of twins who are 7 years old and sextuplets who are 4 years old!!!! Can you imagine? If I were Kate I would probably loose my mind! She is pretty well organized and tries to only feed her family organic food. There was a show where the whole family went to an organic farm and they bought half of an organic cow! The show is pretty funny at times and very cute. I again love my DVR because it is currently recording all of the shows that I haven't seen yet. So almost every night before bed, I watch a couple episodes and try to catch up. It makes me realize how easy my life really is!

Olivia & Tigger

A few months ago Grandma Ferguson brought Livie this jumping Tigger. She like watching him then but didn't get too excited. Now when she watches him bounce and sing she giggles and giggles and tries to imitate the bouncing. It is extremely cute and makes me laugh along with her.. She has the most contagious laugh! Hope you all enjoy the video!

My newest baby!!!!

So today I received an call from my work, the
animal hospital, that Brighton animal control brought in 3 baby kittens that were all orange. ( I had previously told them that I was looking for an orange cat...this was of course before I got Georgie!) So against my better judgement I went to take a look. And of course if you knew me at all this meant I was of course bringing her home. She is estimated to be about 4 weeks old. She is very very timid but loves to cuddle up with Georgie where she feels safe. I am trying to hold her as much as I can to get her used to people. Her name is Margot. She hasn't eaten or gone potty yet, but I am sure she will once she is more comfortable. So that is it for me, NO MORE ANIMALS!
