Huntin' Easter Eggs!

Last Saturday HMA (Housestaff Medical Alliance) had their annual Easter Egg hunt at Meadowthorpe Park. We had a great time and Bailey got soooo much candy...she had a blast! We're still waiting for the warm weather to arrive though!

My sweet little devil of an angel! :)

Bailey, Julia, and Ellie climbing up the slide. They did this about 500 times.

She loves her little friends!

Let the games begin!

So many eggs!

Possibly fighting over eggs. ha!

LOVE! Bailey and Adelyn hugging it out. After the pic, they fell down!

Impossible to get a group photo!

She's still! Annie captivates her attention. :)

New Post! :)

Yes, I'm a slacker! I realize I haven't updated my blog in two months...but I've been kind of over my blog lately. Sorry! :)

Things have been going well and we've been pretty busy lately. I'm so glad spring is finally here. This winter was just AWFUL!!! I can't believe Bailey will be THREE at the end of May! Time is flying by. We're really working on potty training...and it hasn't been going so well. I have a very stubborn little girl! Anyway, Michael has been busy with work and enjoying it as much as possible... Oh yeah, I do have to brag on him. He as been named Chief Cardiology Fellow. It's a huge honor and I'm so proud of him. Other than that, we did buy a new car last week. We finally said good ridance to his 98 Civic!!! We purchased a 2011 Honda CR-V and I love it! I keep busy by being a gym rat these days. :) I don't know what I did before I joined the gym- I just love it! Bailey and I keep busy with playdates with our friends. We have truly been blessed with making so many amazing friends. Bailey and Adelyn hiding from us! Watching Annie together. Bailey's FAVORITE movie of all time! She can see the entire "Tomorrow" song...it is precious! I know what she's going to be for Halloween!

Crusin' in the Barbie car.

Bailey and Adeleigh at the park eating lunch together.

The girls and Eli feeding the ducks.

We went home last weekend and I got to babysit Carney (Caroline) for a while. I was getting ready and I covered her up to watch "Mickey Mouse." Love love love my Carney!

The Three Amigos with glow sticks MiMi gave them.

Where's Bailey and Caroline???

There they are! They love playing in Max's bed!

My new ride. :)

Bailey getting fitted for her flower girl dress. She just LOVED getting all dressed up. She's saying, "CHEESE!"

She felt like she needed her glasses on while she ate dinner.

Bailey and Logan checking out "big girl" panties.

They could've stayed in this aisle forever!

Hand in hand shopping at Target.

Michael and Roscoe. We were at our friends house in Bowling Green for the weekend and their dog is awesome!

Playing so well together. :)

Bailey and Baby Looooogan as Bailey calls her. Two little monkeys!

Lovin' the slide on this pretty spring day.

Cheese!

Bailey, Miss Rena and Charlie. Rena is one of my dear and close friends I've made here in Lexington. We're gym rats together. So sad that they're leaving for Raleigh in July. :(

Bailey loved this jungle gym!

Me, Bailey and Addison (and Miss Shay) having our first playdate outside of the season! Addison is pretty much my second daughter...love her to pieces!

Of course they found the big pile of dirty leaves!

Miss Kelsey (one of her teachers and our babysitter) sent this pic to me of Bailey at school. Having fun with a scarf!

My sick little girl. About a month ago she had the croup and then a sinus infection. She was one sick baby...and you know this by her sleeping in the car. That never happens! Thankfully, she's all better. :)

Max Playing Upward Basketball

A couple of weekends ago Bailey and I drove to Paducah for the weekend to celebrate Caroline's 2nd birthday. On Saturday morning Max had his basketball game and we went to watch. It was adorable! He's now four years old and is getting so big! He was so excited that the whole family was there to watch. They turned out the lights and played "Let's Get Ready to Rumble!" They turn the spotlight on and call each player indvidually and they get to run out through the blow-up tunnel when their name is called. It's is precious! They had little cheerleaders too...that will be Bailey someday! Anyway, Max did a great job and we really enjoyed watching him play! I don't have pics yet of Caroline's birthday...but when I get them I'll post them. We had a great time at home...it's so nice to be around family!!! Max running out- but you can't really see him.

Little Buddy on the bench waiting his turn to go in! He's on the left side- second one from the end.

Auntie Amy and Bailey. She sat in her lap the whole time. What?!?! My child is NEVER still! I still think Amy put a spell on her. ;)

Yay Max! (action shot...ha!)

Amy, Mimi, Bailey, Laura, and Caroline...the birthday girl!

Bailey LOVES her Mimi!

His coach is helping him play by play.

I love my Max!

Miss Lauren and the girls. Bailey LOVES LOVES LOVES Lauren. And why wouldn't she?!?

Bailey's Lovely Hairdo Courtesy of Daddy

Read what I wrote before you look at the pics. Funny story about B's hair. The front- looks okay...until she turns around!

Michael- "Does this look okay?"

This past weekend I was fortunate enough to fly down to Birmingham to visit friends. Michael's parents stayed with Bailey the majority of the time because Michael had to work and was on call. So blessed to have such wonderful in-laws! While I was there I was blasted for not updating my blog...so I promised I'd try and do better! :) (Yes, I'm talking to the Wigton's and Nicole. ha!)

My trip to B'ham was wonderful. I got to see so many great friends and it was just like old times. I stayed with Katie and Eric and they were wonderful hosts. This was my first time to EVER leave Bailey. Now, I've been away for a night here and there when grandparents wanted to keep her overnight..but I had never left the state on her. I thought I wouldn't really miss her much...but boy was I wrong. I missed that girl so much it hurt! I decided I could never leave her for a week and go vacation with just Michael. Can't do it yet...maybe when she's older...but not yet. It was great to have time away from her, but it was so weird because I missed my 24/7 job!

On Saturday Michael called me because he was going to take Bailey to church. (We usually go to church on Saturday nights- it's great!) Anyway, I told him what to put her in, what to put in her little bag, and I TRIED to tell him how to do her hair. The pictures explain themselves. Obviously this is not Dr. Faulkner's strong point... He texted me these pics and asked if they were okay. I laughed so hard I cried- ask Katie! I mean really? Have I EVER fixed her hair like that? I got a good laugh at poor Michael's expense. He did try hard and did the best he could. He's a great daddy to Bailey and husband to me. I love you Honey!!!
