I don't have too much excited to post, but thought I'd say hi and share a few pics of LK hanging out. Yesterday was a great Saturday. Jennifer, one of Lena Kate's Aunt Nancy's best friends, came down to San Antonio to share one of her family traditions with me. We made mints! They are so yummy and I can't wait to share them at Jennifer (Brown) Szklarski's shower in Mathis in a few weeks. Jennifer is just a wonderfully sweet girl that I'm so fortunate to have met. I now consider her my friend too:) We made mints all morning and then had sandwich from Quizno's. Yesterday afternoon Trent and Nancy brought over some ribs and Lane smoked them on the grill. Lane also made a pot of beans. We just hung out on the porch and enjoyed the Spring evening...it doesn't get much better than that. Nancy and I also got in a walk around the neighborhood. Last night I gave in to a craving I've had for 2 weeks now. I baked some homemade brownies. They were excellent! I posted the recipe a few weeks ago, so feel free to scroll back and find it if they sound good to you too.
Funny Story-Last night at about 4am I got up to get LK since she was hungry and not relenting with the thunderpounds she does with her legs. I bent down to pick her up and in my sleepiness I picked her up upside-down not realizing it! Rather than having her under the arms I had her under the legs. I went to pat her back and realized it was her butt and her head and arms were hanging down rather than her legs!...I can't believe I did that. You would've thought somebody had put something in my Crystal Light last night at dinner. Fortunately, she didn't seem to mind at all-not a peep out of her. I guess I was tired.
Unfortunately, there were some great photo ops yesterday and I didn't even get my camera out of the car. Lena Kate was wearing her camo outfit with ruffles on it...such a cute little country girl! I think she looks more like herself in outfits like that than dresses....must be the tomboy in her mother. You'll have to settle for these.
Isn't this funny? You just see her "surprise eyes" and sweet feet!
