Makeovers by Lulu

LuLu is such the girly girl! She loves purses, makeup , lotionand all theother girl stuff. It is so funny because she will get in my makeup and put it exactly where it goes on her face. The other night she got in my lipstick at Applebees and it entertained for her 20 mins or more.. any takers for prom or wedding makeovers??

Cheetos , Gotta Love 'EM !!

Who doesn't love Cheetos?? They are yummy and make a huge mess!

LuLu the Mommy

LuLu loves to push her baby around outside in the stroller. She will push her on the sidewalk, up the stairs, in the street... just where ever she thinks that baby wants to go. After she pushes for her a few mintues she will stop , go around the the front of the stroller , pick up the baby and then hug her , pat her on the back , kiss her and then drop her back in the stroller. What a good little mommy she is!

Yes they call her the Streak.. fastest thing on two feet..

Hiding from us..wonder what she was thinking.....





LuLu's new favorite thing to do is take her diaper off and run around without clothes. We cannot leave her in just a diaper without shorts or pants. She will run away and then we will catch her in the buff!! Chris and I were talking in the kitchen the other night and then when we came around the corner this is what we found. LuLu realized that bare bottoms do not make for a good trip down the slide.

Our first go round with the stomach virus

LuLu woke up vomiting last Tuesday morning around 1 am. Chris and I walked into her room to a bed and a child covered with vomit!! I felt so bad for my sweet little baby. We had to give her a bath and change and wash all the sheets. We ended up with her in our bed the rest of the night because she woke up like every 30 mins vomiting. It is so pitiful to see a toddler vomit. She would cry every time because she did not understand what was going on. The vomiting stopped around 6:30 that morning and then came the fever of 102. My sweet mom ran to the store for us to get some Tylenol along with a few other things so that we would not have to get out. When she came back she brought LuLu some balloons which were a HUGE hit!! They made her feel better instantly. Moms/ Nanas are the best, and I would not know what to do without mine! LuLu carried the balloons from Nana every where including bed that night ( I had to sneak back in and get them from her once she was alseep) . She even woke up the next morning asking for them.
Anways, the vomiting started back that afternoon around 2 pm , and our wonderful doctor called in some anti vomiting medicine which did the trick!! She still ran fever the next day so we layed in bed and watched TV and just lounged around that morning. She is feeling better FINALLY !!! and I hope that we never get this again.. YUCK!

After our exciting morning with LuLu and her Easter basket goodies we got all dressed in our Easter best and traveled to church. We had a great service thanks to our wonderful pastor Donn and then an Easter egg hunt after church. LuLu was not at all interested in hunting eggs this year. I think that it is because she hates to touch the grass and she hates for her hands to be dirty so picking up things off the ground was not at all appealing to her. She threw her Easter basket down and ran off. All she wanted to do was hang out with Jonathan ( our pastor's son and the love of her life .. HA! ) and run around on the wheel chair ramp. I did get a few pics of the kids at church on Easter morning all lined up on the alter... how cute!!

This year was LuLu's second Easter. Chris got called into work at 6:30 and was not able to spend the day with us because he did not get home until like 8:00 that night. I felt really bad that he had to miss all of the fun and excitement of the day but we took lots of pictures for him. When she woke up I had her Easter basket sitting in the hall in front of her room. It was full of her favorite things ( Barney, Mickey and Pooh coloring books, Bathtub crayons, a Barney and Elmo movie and a Barney book) she was so excited to see what we had left for her !!

This past Saturday, April the 11th, we took LuLu to see the Easter bunny. We had such a good time. My mom and dad were able to come with us and to also have lunch with us at LuLu's favorite hot spot.. Chik Fil A. She did not want to eat because she wanted to play so that was fun to deal with. It is kinda funny that she even likes to play there because she is SOOOO short and has a hard time climbing on the play set. She cannot even climb to the slide. I actually ( while no other mom was looking through the glass ) got in there with her so that she could slide. She just likes to run around on the bottom and watch all the other kids. It is so fun for her! After we ate we made a mad dash for the LONG line ( that my mom and dad so patienty waited in for us ) so that we could se the Easter bunny. She actually went to him without a problem. She held his hand and all. My child has never been scared of anything like that . Actually she is not scared of anything ... wait... yes she is the racoon ball at Cracker Barrel, but that is it! She looked so cute sitting in his lap. Dad and Chris took LuLu to the mall playground while mom and I did a little shopping and then it was off to Pump It Up for Riley's 5th birthday and Cole's 2nd birthday. Our friends have kids that were born on the same day just three years apart. LuLu did not want to play and kept asking to " Go Bye Bye Car Mommy" so we had to leave the party early. I guess she was tired from all the playing that day... but we did not leave too early to catch the VOMIT VIRUS!! UGH!!!

And these were a few of my favorite things when I was 20 months old

" Boo Boos" ( pacifiers) " Cacker" ( crackers RITZ CHEESE of course), and " Night Night" She actually passed out in the car while eating these. She was worn out and already in her jammies !
