lots of falls

In the past couple of days, Ansley has fallen a lot. Ofcourse, she is fearless, which is not a good thing and thinks she can do anything. The other day, she tried to stand in her plastic chair and tipped over and busted her lip on the hardwoods. So she had a nice fat lip! .... Then yesterday, she was running down the driveway and gravity took her forward with her face hitting the concrete first. She is a mess! (Ansley is doing find and actually got over the fall pretty fast, she was ready to play in the backyard on her slide within minutes of falling).

I know falling comes with walking, but it scares me everytime. I always think the worse when she falls, but thankfully none of them have been too bad. Here is Ansley with her scraped up face (this was right after it happened, it looks worse now).

enjoying the outdoors

I was playing around with the effects of the pic above

Ansley thinks that when you say "put your sunglasses on", they go around her neck?

"watch dadda (dadda is what she calls me), I can go down by myself"

playdate at the park

My friend Jenna lives in a great neighborhood with lots of fun parks. So we always go over to thier neighborhood to play at the many parks....One of the parks is called the sandbox and it is completley fenced in, which is nice, since my child likes to escape the other parks. Jenna & her son, Treyton, joined us at the sandbox. Ansley and Treyton had a blast! They really didn't care too much for the actual sandbox but loved all the other toys that were there. Here are some pics from the "sandbox."

Golf Anyone?

Ansley loves to play with her daddy's golf club. It is the first thing she grabs when we go outside to play. It is so much bigger then she is, but she just loves it. Since she likes golf clubs, I figured I would try and find her a plastic set more her size. I was so happy to find a set, it is so cute! When I brought it home for Ansley she got so excited, but she still seems to rather play with daddy's golf clubs outside and plays with hers inside....Go figure! (no pics of the plastic set, but I will get some and post)

mommy's little helper

Ansley is obsessed with the vaccum cleaner and dust buster, not sure why, but she just is. Any time I am using either one she comes running to see me in action. Here is our little helper dust busting the kitchen floor.....Can you see her excitement!?!

Silly Girls!

Kel forwarded some pictures she took of Maddie and Ansley being silly. They get along so well and hopefully will continue to enjoy playing with one another. Just thought I would share.

catching up with friends & family

This past week Ansley and I headed to Atlanta since daddy was in Greenville for work. We had already planned to go for the weekend but figured why not go for a longer period of time :) We got to see alot of people we hadn't seen in a while but still felt like we didn't have enough time to see everyone. We visited Ms. Stephanie (she is 35 weeks preggo) and we can't wait to meet baby Phillip, we saw the Zarbnisky family, Sarah & Emma Kate, Candice & Heidi Cay, and mommy went to a bridal shower for one of her sorority sisters. And ofcourse, we got to hang out with Aunt Kelly, Uncle Brent & Maddie (we miss you guys so much)! We are just thrilled that they are going to have another little girl, YEAH!!!! I think between Ansley & Madison's wardrobe the next Wardrop baby is all set.

And we can't forget Pop-Pop and Nana, thanks for everything! We loved seeing you. Thanks for watching Ansley for me while I went to the shower and got my hair done.

Even though we had a nice week in Atlanta, we are happy to be home with daddy :)


Finally got Ansley's hair in a mohawk! ....watching tv in Nana's room

Here are some pics from our playdate with Candice & Heidi Cay, & Madison (Kel & Brent dropped Madison off so she could play while they were at thier doctor's appt). The girls had a great time together!


hugs all around!


Ansley loved the sit n' spin...she could balance herself standing up and spin around

hysterical

So this morning Ansley woke up a little after 7, and I went in to get her like I normally do. However, usually when we get her she is already standing up in her crib ready to get out. This morning it was still dark but I faintly could see that she had something over her head. I just started laughing and walked back out to get my camera. After putting the camera on night vision, I just aimed and took the picture and this is what I got ....Hysterical, or at least I thought it was.

Ansley's debut at playing the guitar

Ansley just may follow in her Uncle Boo's footsteps....

Ohhhhhhhh...I just made a pretty sound!

Here is a short video of her playing Rob's guitar. I had a better one but accidently erased it.

We do not have much to report here.... We have had a busy week. We have had several dinners with friends, storytime at the library (which Ansley loves) and our weekly playdate with our friends, Jenna & Treyton, Laura & Libby, and our new members of the group, Emily & Benjamin. The kids all get along so well! We have been meeting up at least once a week for the past couple of months.... I have also started attending a stay-at-home moms group out of our church on Thursday mornings and the church offers child care during the meeting which gives me a nice break.

Sorry I do not have a whole of new pics of Ansley, she is just moving too fast! But hopefully I will get some this week. We hope you all had a great weekend!

Which celebrity do I most look like?

Well let's hope Ansley doesn't end up like Jamie Lynn Spears!

My look-a-like celebs aren't too bad... Ofcourse I would love to look like Jennifer Aniston!
