More Olbrich

Kate and I spent yesterday lazing around the house, which was so much fun. I love all our activities, but sometimes it's really nice to just spend a beautiful summer day at home. We spent some time coloring, painting, playing in her sandbox, going to the park nearby, building blocks... I love being home with my little girl. These are just like the lazy summer days I had during my childhood, that I have such fun memories of.

Today, though, we went to Olbrich together since I want to be there as much as possible during this gorgeous (long-awaited!) spring. It's amazing to see Kate's vocabulary grow on a daily basis. She was wandering through the gardens exclaiming, "This is absolutely gorgeous!" and "Hmm, what direction should we go now?" It's crazy to me that my little baby is now a little girl.

We brought some snacks in her little backpack and had a nice little picnic on a bench, and then we had lunch at Daisy Cupcakery. So glad that spring is finally here!

The Arboretum!

Monday was a beautiful spring day, and we met our playgroup at the Arboretum. It was so much fun! We were there for over three hours, and the kids had so much fun running around and exploring. Then Kate & I went to the Laurel for lunch, before heading home for a nap and ballet class. I got to watch her class since we had to help them try on costumes, since the recital is in just a few weeks!





 Kate appears to have a boyfriend... agh!! :) They spent all day playing together!





















Her friend Stella came over in the middle of the dance to compare costumes, ha!
