Happy Memorial Day

We had a visit from Andy on Sunday.  Zuri was napping when Andy first got here so it took her a minute to warm up to him.

Mommy, why are you letting him hold me??

Zuri thought it would be fun to put her chair on the couch and sit on it.

Look what I can do!

 Zuri also thought it was fun to show Andy her new "hat"!!

I remember when Mommy and Daddy would put this on my head.

 By the end of the day, you would have thought that we were not letting Zuri drink anything.  She gulped down daddy's water like crazy....

I'm thirsty, gimme water!!!

I'll take some ice now.

 On Monday, we went to Firehouse Subs and Zuri got a cute little fireman's hat.

I'm the cutest fireman in this place.

 Then we went to Tony's for a cookout.

Zuri loves Bree!!

Last night, Zuri was having trouble going to sleep.  Brent had to go back in there and read her more books.  Her pants were off when he went in there and they were off this morning!

What's up, mommy?!

"Cheese!!!"

Zuri's New Ride

Daddy, I can mow the yard for you if you want.

Sleepy baby.

Miss Elena

Friday was Miss Elena's last day at daycare.  She's going back home to be with her family.  While we will miss her very dearly, we also know she needs to be with her family right now.  We want to be selfish and keep her here, but we can't.  Miss Elena, you (along with Miss Claudia) helped make returning to work a little easier.

Since Miss Elena is an artist, Zuri thought it would be fitting to paint her a picture.

We love you Miss Elena!!

First Date

On Saturday, Zuri was being a little stinker.  She was giving everyone kisses BUT me!!  Grandpa Cox (a/k/a Tickle Monster) came to visit.  Zuri gave him kisses and even said "papaw"!!!  It was the cutest thing ever.

Papaw and Zuri

After Grandpa Cox left and Zuri napped, we went to the stores to window shop for a new lawn mower.  While we were at Menards, Zuri grabbed these two balls.  She screamed when we tried to take them from her so we bought them.  We have "sucka" tattooed on our foreheads.  :)  Anyway, even when she would drop one, she would scream.  Here she is with them in the car.  LOL

Such a multi-tasker

You know how I said Zuri would give everyone kisses but me on Saturday?  Well, on Sunday when I was having ice cream, Zuri would not leave my side!!!  She loves sweets.

mmmmmm........ice cream!

I'm sure you're wondering about her first date.  This morning at daycare, Zuri had a Cheerios date with Alex.  Here she is trying to take some of his Cheerios.....or giving him some of her Cheerios....or trying to get his hand to hold?!  Oh, and this wasn't technically their first date.  They had a Cheerios date last week, but we did not get a picture of it.
