Baby Boggs Stroller Test....

Someone needed to test out Baby Bogg's stroller...so Lauren was up for the task!  She has also started this new thing where she takes off her socks, puts them on her hands, and plays puppets!  It is kind of funny, but not in the middle of Old Navy! 

Testing out the stroller!
"Hmmm...maybe I'll keep this for myself...."
And then....sock puppet time! 

Sunglasses Sweetheart....

Lauren found a pair of her sunglasses in her dress-up box and hasn't put them down since!  I have to admit--she looks pretty stinkin' cute in them!

Love this little girl!
Cutie pie!!!

Morning Fun With Mommy....

I love my mornings with my little girl but I love them even more when we can stay in our PJ's for a little bit and play together!

Sleeping beauty!
Enjoying her breakfast in the car while Mommy got coffee!
Back at home and time for "shopping"!!!
Taking her baby for a stroll!
Emptying out her shopping cart!

Krazy Kindermusik Kutie....

Lauren started Kindermusik with Ms. Sandy again this semester and she LOVES it!  She was a little shy when she first walked in, but that quickly faded in about 5 seconds!  I was so mad at myself because I forgot my camera and my cellphone died shortly after this picture, but I at least got one picture of her at Kindermusik before my phone died!!!  She had a blast and was ZONKED before we even got home!  More Kindermusik fun to come as the weeks go by!

Park Fun With Daddy....

Payton has been working some very long hours at work but he got a little break one Sunday afternoon and went to the park with Lauren!  She was so happy to see her Daddy (and so was I)!!!  They had a blast at the park together too!  I just sat back, relaxed, and took pictures for them!

Giggling with her Daddy!
Funny thing is...not 24 hours before this I took her to the park and she refused to swing for me!  She was crying and kicking and screaming so I finally just took her out.  Then, less than 24 hours later, her DADDY puts her the swing and it's all giggles, rainbows, and lollipops this time!  I can't be too upset, because that smile and the fun she was having with her Daddy makes up for it!
Loving it!
Daddy helping Lauren up the steps!

Afternoon Frozen Yogurt Treat....

We took Lauren for the first time to get frozen yogurt and, well, I'll let the pictures tell you if she loved it or not...




Never lacking in the drama department, Lauren loved the frozen yogurt and wasn't afraid to show us!

Our Little Shopper....

We went to the outlet malls on Saturday and Lauren enjoyed a little shopping with us! Of course she has expensive taste and was shopping at Saks 5th Ave!

Looking for a new winter coat...
Stopped for a dance break!  Saks 5th Ave has very hip music!
Looking through the sale rack...
Finding herself a new pair of jeans...
If only she was a little taller...

A Reading Closet....

Last weekend we rearranged Lauren's room to make it more functional for all of her playing needs!  I also weeded through her closet and all of her clothes (and boy, does she have A LOT!!!) which left her closet looking nice a clean!  Lauren must really love her closet now (and who wouldn't--she has such cute clothes in there!) because she took two pillows in there, a blanket, and I caught her reading in her new "reading closet!"  It was pretty cute to watch!

"Which book should I read first???"
Organizing her books....
Reading Dr. Seuss!
Two pillows, a doll, a blanket, and her books!

A Mulch Mess....

The weather has been really pretty here lately, so I took Lauren to the park after school to play!  She was having lots of fun sliding and playing with the mulch, of course!

Running up the stairs to get to the slide!
I think the mulch bothers her because it's "diiiiirty" as she says!
Mulch in one hand, ready to slide again!

A Work Of Art....

My little artist has been creating more art projects at school!  When I picked her up the other day, I had to get a picture of her standing under her art work!  Please ignore the red stains on her dress--apparently it was rosey applesauce day.

Standing by her art work!
"Oh Mommy...it was nothing!"
A little shy about her art work...she's modest!
All the cute projects!
Stamp art!  It looks like she picked the giraffe stamp!

Breakfast With Mommy At The Playplace....

I had Monday off for Martin Luther King, Jr. day, so I took Lauren to McDonald's for breakfast and fun at the playplace!  She's never been to the playplace before so this was fun, fun, fun for her!  She really loved it!

Enjoying her pancakes before playing!
A lady always wipes her mouth after eating...
Loving the playplace!
Running around all over the place!
She went down that slide at least 30 times!
Dancing and singing...

A Sailor Sweetheart....

Grammie Tammie and Big Pop gave Lauren this ADORABLE sailor dress for Christmas!  She wore it to church last Sunday and got just about 1,000 compliments!  We went to lunch after church and got a quick picture before going into the restaurant!  Way toooooo cute!

Our little sailor sweetheart!
She was picking out what she wanted to eat!

A Lotion Mess....

As we were getting ready for church, Lauren got into my lotion and got herself ready!  She was a lotion mess!!!  It was pretty cute, so it was hard to be mad--but it was my good lotion!

At least she applied the lotion evenly!
What a mess!

A Trip To The Park On Pinky The Pony....

I took Lauren to the park the other day, but she wanted to ride Pinky the Pony over there.  We started out really well, but she kept stopping to pick up leaves, point at the airplanes, touch trees, etc.  We made it to the mailbox on the pony and then ended up taking the pony back, and going to the park in the push car instead!

Checking out the airplanes and a water break...
We are barely out of the front door!
Another break to check out the trees...
More water and more airplanes!
Finally made it to the park!  Time to play!!!
She loves the tunnel!
