Disney World vacation

Meili and I just got back from Disney World in Florida.

It was magical.

And full of princesses.

I'll post our pics soon!

Mother's Day

Happy belated Mother's Day!

We celebrated Mother's Day at a local Italian restaurant. It has a Sunday brunch that I've wanted to attend since I moved here. I <3 brunch! And my daughter! So it was the perfect combination.

I'm roughly 18 weeks pregnant and feel every bit of it. My mom says that I look 'matronly'. I have other words to describe how I look right now. Ugh!

My silly Meili. The one that made me a mommy. Words cannot express how much I love you!

Easter

Easter was a big celebration at our house. It was the first time that Meili saw the Easter bunny.

She told the Easter bunny that she wanted a Mulan doll and candy for Easter. Amazingly, that's exactly what the Easter bunny brought her.

We participated in 4 Easter egg hunts over the Easter weekend. I say we because it really is a group effort to get Meili to hunt eggs. She'd rather pick dandelions.

We went to church on Saturday night -- to avoid the Sunday morning rush. It was a fantastic idea because we were able to sleep in until almost 11:00 am. Yes, Meili is a late sleeper just like her momma. I'm very lucky! Easter afternoon was spent at a family friendly event about 1 hour from our house. There were crafts, snacks, and a relaxed egg hunt. The perfect way to end a busy Easter weekend.

 Of course, we can't forget to pick a few dandelions on our way out.

Inaugural post

Well....

Since I started over IRL, I figured that I should start a new blog. The old one was about my marriage, life in the big city, and foster/adoption. Now that Meili and I have moved over 200 miles away, a fresh start online was needed.

So here we are.

Messy life and all.
