Busy, Busy......

As usual, we have been very busy.......
Pierson loves to get out and about and experience as much as she can. One her favorite things to do though is have little playdates. She always looks forward to our weekly playgroups, but really likes it when she gets to play with her friends outside of playgroup. Pierson had the pleasure of having one of her other favorite playmates over, Brooks Jurgensen.











Pierson shared her toys and loved having another little one over to play!

She also loves getting to play with the toys that her friends bring over!














She will kill me for these kind of pictures later in life, but I couldn't resist. She absolutely LOVES her bath time and never wants to get out!


















She is like a little granny with her walker! She is so funny to watch with this toy because she will literally move it around the house to get from place to place and to get where she wants. She will push it up to where she wants to go and play there for a little while and then get back on the walker and move somewhere else.

















She loves pointing at things now, more so when she wants something. She will get such a serious little face, point to something and then say something (in her own language of course) like she is carrying on a grown up conversation with us.












No matter where Mommy puts my blankie, I can go and find it!
One of her new things :)

Mom let her have goldfish this past week and she LOVED them! She apparently takes after her mommy and enhales all things that are carbs :)
This weekend was a full of events and it started off by getting to attend on her playmates 1st birthday party, Jack Sibley!

She got to play with some of her favorite friends, Brooks Jurgensen and Addyson McEachern. She missed her morning nap though so we were a little on edge that morning ;)

Pierson and her pal, Hudson King, eating some yummy yogurt melts at the party.
Pierson got to go visit her Nonna on Friday night and had her first night away from mommy and daddy (at the same time) so they could celebrate Valentine's Day and Daddy's birthday. Pierson had a wonderful time at her Nonna's house and was on her best behavior. Mommy and Daddy had a much needed night out and for the first time ever since Pierson's birth, over night and morning to themselves. We weren't really able to "sleep in" but it was great to not HAVE to get out of bed and immediately start entertaining our little one. We sure did miss our sweet P! We picked her up at noon the next day.

This is P and her Nonna (Donna) from her church dedication. She has worked with Ryan since he started at Spenco and we have been SOOOOO blessed to have her and her sweet family in our lives. Pierson LOVES her and it is such a relief to know she is in great hands when we leave her.
Pierson helped her daddy do nothing on his birthday! Don't worry, that is what he takes great joy in doing every year. Then on Sunday, we headed down to Austin to watch Pierson's Lita (Ryan's mom) walk in the Austin 1/2 marathon.

Here is Lita with her walking buddy, Kathleen Maxwell, just about to cross the finish line! Kathleen is the mother of Ryan's long time childhood friend, Austin.

They FINISHED!!!!

Pierson has a special Valentine's/ Race Day outfit for her Lita.

Lita Love!


It was a beautiful day in Austin, sunshine and 70 degrees!
Pierson had her first 6th St. experience, but thankfully it was with her daddy so she didn't get into too much trouble :) We got to stop by and have a very quick visit with Taylor and Ali Williams and their parents. We had a great lunch after the race with Lita and the Maxwell's and then headed back home to cloudy 40 degree weather.
