Spring Fever

We have had beautiful weather this week! I have spring fever and hope it doesn't turn cold again. I have been in short sleeves and have been dressing Hannah in her summer attire (with a sweater and a blanket nearby just in case). Yesterday Amy, Kim, & I went to Jasper to a consignment shop called Henrietta's Closet. They are only there until this Saturday. I bought Hannah a dress and Emily got a dress, but for the most part the place was over priced. I don't think you should buy something used that you can find new for the same price. Anyway, after we left the store, we went to the park and let the kids play. They had a good time and it was nice to get out and enjoy the beautiful weather. Hannah got to swing for the first time. Today Kim & I took Hannah, Addi, and Levi to the zoo. It was a lot of fun. It has been a long time since I have been to the zoo. It is nicer now. They have a kids park and several other additions. Hannah rode in the stroller but ended up in the "Snugli." She had a good time. The zoo was another "first" for her.

She has decided this week that she is not going to sleep. She has gotten up several times in the night. Last night was better, but it is like she is a newborn again. I think she may be cutting a tooth or it could be from the sedation medicine. This morning I ended up giving her a pacifier to get her to calm down. She played with it for a while and then drifted off to sleep. I don't want her to start taking a pacifier, but I will do whatever it takes to "survive." :) She has been army crawling this week and can get anywhere she wants now. I guess you would call it scooting, so it won't be long before I am blogging about her crawling. She finally went down for a nap and so I am going to take a nap with her. We have a long weekend ahead and the time changes, so I will need the rest. Don't forget to "Spring forward" Saturday night.

Enjoy the pictures from the zoo!
