She's growing up!

Paisley continues to keep us laughing all of the time! The terrible two's have hit and I'm getting a little frustrated but as far as her little personality go's.....she is getting smarter, funnier and cuter every day!
* She loves to pull off stickers. She sat in her high chair and picked at the manufacture warning sticker until it is completely gone now! She would hand me bits and pieces one at a time as she pulled it off!
 * When she finds the packages of diapers in our drawers she picks off the "Huggies: sticker label on  all of them too!
 * For her birthday she got one of those magnetic doodle pads and she loves for us to trace her hands. Well, the other day she sat on it and wanted me to trace her bum. It was so funny I just about died!
* We were in Wal-mart getting a few groceries and she didn't want to ride in the cart anymore so I set her down and turn around to find her trying to pick off the sticker on a tomato. It was so funny!
* We headed to Baya's house after our walmart trip and I gave Paisley a banana to eat. When we got to their house she handed me the banana peeling and said, "Nana...trash!" It was so cute!
* When we were at my doctors appointment with a waiting room full of people, Paisley starts to "roar" like a lion as she reads her books when she sees the dinosaurs. Then she takes my phone and turns on the music like she normally does...and Nikki Minaj starts blaring!
* We were coming home from a doctors appointment I had and I told her to go "night night" so she force closed her eyes. You could tell she was trying hard because they were kind of moving. A little bit later she opened them and saw me staring at her so we both laughed and then she closed them again. The best part was....she actually ended up falling asleep! 
* When she eats and apple she spits out the skin and hands it to me! Instead of eating around an apple she eats it from one end to the other. I see half and apple about to the core like she's cut it in half. It's so funny!
* Doug picked out frosted flakes for his cereal and when Paisley saw Tony the Tiger at the top of the cupboard she "roared" like a tiger! It was hilarious!

Our treasured nap time together!

I treasure these moments! Being her mother is the greatest gift I could ever ask for! I love you so much Paisley!

Adorable Day!

This is one of Paisleys birthday outfits and she just looks so cute in it! She does everyday!

I love when she "cheeses" for the camera!

Pais and dad at lunch

Paisley got a toilet for her birthday and when it senses pressure or warmth it starts singing! She loves to sit on it but we are yet to have her actually go in it. She sometimes tries to start taking off her clothes so we can put her on her little toilet!

Oh Reeealllyyy?

I love when Paisley climbs up to my computer desk and thinks she can do whatever she wants! Caught ya!

Paisley's Birthday!

We had a few of our friends meet at a pavilion on campus! We had pizza, cake and ice cream, and a pinata Paisley picked out herself. It was a green dragon but I tore off the ugly nostrils and teeth to make it look a little more... girly?! Paisley and her friends were so cute running around together and it was so fun to introduce my friends to my mom!

Getting ready to sing her happy birthday and light the candle

In this picture her and Baya are just sitting there together laughing

Paisley trying to blow out her candle

Baya, Paisley, Vera, Lyndon, Nano, and Carson. It wasn't very good lighting but I just hurried to get a picture!

Pinata time!

Guess who finally broke the sucker open?...that's right!....ME! Haha :)

Paisley's new kitchen set she got for her birthday!

Already a mess! She throws everything in the sink to be washed like her play phone and things that shouldn't be washed and puts everything including baby dolls in the microwave, fridge, oven, dishwasher etc...

Grandma Marcia's visit! :)

Grandma Marcia arrived on Saturday, March 9th at around 9:00. We headed to the Fort Myers airport to pick her up with permagrins. We headed back home and stayed up way too late!
Sunday, March 10th, we slept through church (shhh! I know!) and headed to the law school! Doug took her inside and showed her the library! My mom is a scholar and she loved all of this fun stuff and all the books!

We then headed to Clampass Beach and rode the little golf cart back through the trees to get to the beach on the other side. We walked on the sand and had lunch on the dock! Wings, chicken tenders, coke and pina collada's (sp)!

 Monday, March 11th we had lunch at Chik-fil-a!

 After lunch we were driving and my mom spotted this beautiful tree at this Catholic church so we had to stop and take some pictures. She was in love with this tree! It was pretty cool!

 Then we went to Target where my mom spoiled Paisley for her birthday! It was pretty exciting! Then we headed to a teacher store where Paisley had a blast with everything in there! It was very difficult to rip her away! She carried around the toys she wanted that she found in the toy area. She shoved the baby dolls in the kid oven and took the play pen. She went back to play with some cars and just decided to put them in the play pen with some balls as well. She didn't understand she couldn't take them home!

 After a long day we finally kicked back and were able to relax. We played the game 4 pics 1 word on our phones constantly, watched "Castle" and laughed our guts out the whole time all while being entertained by Pickle!

 She covered Grandma with about every toy she owned!

 She even put this pillow in her face!

 Doug loves to pick on my mom too! I love their relationship! It is so funny! They tease each other to NO end! Doug hit my mom in the nose with a pretend golf ball that he threw from his mouth and every time she wanted to tease him she threw out the card that her nose hurt!
 Tuesday, March 12, we had some more fun! Obviously more shopping! We went to Target just about everyday for something! This picture is so cute of my mom and Paisley by the river next to our house! Paisley had to show Grandma and Grandma was always so good to take her over there!
P.S. Everyday when my mom got ready she blew me away with her beauty! It wasn't surprising and something I already knew but I can't help but throw a fit over her. She has the cutest style and wears the cutest clothes! I want to look just like her!

 My mom and I had fun making our favorite- Chicken Fajitas- for dinner! My mom is an amazing cook!

 Wednesday, March 13, I showed my mom a couple of the houses and fun streets down on 5th and 3rd and then went to Lowdermilk beach access and walked on the beach for a bit! This was the first beach I went to when my parents moved us down here. They drove us to this beach as we were trying to familiarize ourselves with Naples. They wanted me to know right where to go and this is what we found so it has a special place in my heart! It was fun to bring my mom back to the place she brought me!

 Everywhere we went, people fell in love with Paisley. The 2 older women in the background couldn't stop smiling and watching her!

 I'll never forget this day! I wish I had a picture or a video of it but I don't......I went to pick Doug up from school and on our way home we see my mom and Paisley running down the road by our house with a trash bag in Paisley's hand. Apparently when my mom opened the door outside, Paisley saw her poopy diaper in a bag and told Grandma, "Trash!" So my mom was running to the trash with her. We stopped and picked them up and then Dad walked with her the rest of the way! I think about my mom and Paisley running to the trash all the time! It was a sight i'll never forget as long as I live! It was HONESTLY the cutest thing I have EVER seen!

'My mom confessed that she has OCD coloring. Not in the fact that it has to look perfect by ANY means, (trust me) but that she feels like she has to hurry and color the whole book and get it done! Hahaha!

 Thursday, March 14, after Doug got done with school we went down to the pier! This is my mom and I by another beautiful tree!

  This is a house we love that we wish we owned. It is so cute and they are about to restore it!

 Every time our parents come it is a tradition (Doug has made) that they treat us to Red Lobster! :)

That night we were preparing for Paisley's birthday on Friday!

 Doug made her the cute table which I painted and I re-did the cute litte end table I found outside a dumpster. The cute little bench and chairs were a gift from Doug and I that we bought at Hobby Lobby and fell in love with!

 I made this Birthday Banner and balloon wreath for the special occasion. The best part is they are good to go for all birthday's now!

 Paisley and Grandma reading bookds

 Dad was putting together Paisley's kitchen set and brought these boxes out in the living room to play with. Paisley and him had a blast!

 Friday, March 15th, we prepared for her party! We invited our friends to the pavilion campus for her party! {To see her party go to the next entry Paisley's Birthday!}

Saturday, March 16th, we hung out at the mall! Doug had to go work out some details with our car which was almost a lawsuit but turned out fine! Paisley, my mom and I hung out and played! When Doug was done we all walked and looked around!
These purple glasses P

 

  Paisley saw the Easter Bunny and was loving life! She was kind of scarred of the bunny but wanted to stay there and watch her all day!

 

 Paisley and Grandma in the kids play area at the mall

 

Last summer we took her on a carousal ride and she hated it. Well, now she sees this one at the mall and always makes her way over to it so we figured she would like it now since she was older so I rode on it with  her and she hated it! She cried the whole time.This time she sees it again so Dad decided to take her and cleary he has the charm because she loved it!

Sunday, March 17th, we were going to take a ride to the everglades but decided we would rather relax. We did a few errands and then went home and had a "Castle" marathon.

 Sunday night!

Monday, March 18th, Paisley, Grandma and I headed to the airport to drop Grandma off! :( She flew out at 12:30 and we were so sad to see her go. Thank heavens we'll see her in about a month and a half or we wouldn't have made it through! Thanks for coming mom and for everything you did! We love you and miss you like crazy!
