Lady Bugs and fun around the house

The other day I found 2 lady bugs in the backyard, so I caught them for the girls and put them in a bug catcher. They were SO excited. This led to an entire evening filled with catching lady bugs. I think they caught about 10! They were everywhere. I let them each keep them in a bug catcher over night. We looked up what they eat, bugs, so I told them we had to let them go the next day so they could get some food. Chris is impressed that I actually will touch lady bugs. I suppose I am too ;-)



 Patton loves our bed. Loves it. In fact today he actually fell asleep on his own. In our bed. Chris jokes that Patton is taking over and he's going to find his pillow in Patton's cradle. All I know is that this boy is SO snuggly.  I am starting to understand why he has to be snuggled to go to sleep, I am getting pretty used to it myself!

 Patton loves his baby Einstein mat. He breaks into a huge grin when I lay him on it. His favorite is the red bird, he always grabs it with his hands and the star with his feet. He just lays there smiling and chattering to himself.  He also rolled over on Saturday! From his tummy to his back.

 Sweet sleeping angel. (In our bed)

 E and I had a day of shopping for clothes on Sunday.  It was so fun to go to the store with just her and let her pick out and try on clothes.

 One time last year I dressed up in one of my old bridesmaid dresses.  A few times B has asked me to do it again, but since I was pregnant I told her I was too big.  After P came she continued to ask and I told her I probably couldn't fit into them and it would make me sad. Finally the other day I relented and dressed up in my dress from Amanda's wedding. She insisted I needed a crown and high heels too. Then we had a tea party. It was quite fun :-) I am called the Queen when I dress up.
