Mallory enjoying the baby chicks and Farm & Home.
Me & My Peeps!
Hanging out the Farm Store looking like Cinderella!
And there it is...Cinderella....the movie. This was Mallory's first experience in a movie theater so of course it was only fitting that we see Cinderella.
Someone....really really enjoyed it!
She LOVED it...she sat so still and quiet. There were a few parts in the movie that were a bit different than the Cinderella that Mallory knows....and she had to point out that wasn't how it went...but she was perfect!
Aw....this is the life!
Hey mom....just driving my bike.....
It appears the pictures got a bit out of order....Lots of popcorn make me happy!
1st Movie!!!
Silly pic!
This was her look pretty much the entire movie...
Back to riding my bike!
St. Patty's Day....pinching me....and I had green on????
Silly pics....
More silly pics....
Showed Mallory what a leprechaun was on my phone....a couple pictures came up...one of which the leprechaun was "mooning" us....She thought it was Hilarious! Not sure if that is good or bad....;)
And now the sad part to our post.....we lost our little Peanut dog on Saturday March 21st. She was hit by a car....which still do not know why she was in the road...she was NEVER in the road. This was her on our last family vacation to Florida.
Snuggling....she loved to be rubbed right between her eyes and down her nose.
Mallory has had a VERY hard time with this as they were quite good buddies. She at first was scared that her daddy was hurt too and that he would go to heaven. Then she was concerned that Roxie would "get broken" . She openly talks about Peanut and heaven and Jesus....its heartbreaking at times but I try to encourage her to talk about her dog and heaven. She tells us that she is sad and that she misses "her best friend." She draws lots of pictures for Peanut and prays for her at night time.
She was such a good puppy....so cuddly and was so good with Mallory. Roxie sure misses her sister too. She was truly a part of our family.
RIP Little Peanut
Mallory got sick and had strep a couple weeks back so I had to stay home with her. I was working from home and she came in and said look at my new feet....She is soo funny....(don't mind the coughing...she was feeling pretty rough...lol)
She wanted me to take a picture of her being silly.....NAILED IT!
Mallory's Easter Party at daycare....
Her and her friend lining up for the big hunt.
Cute little bunny....
FRIENDS!!!
The hunt is on....
She was so calm about collecting the eggs...
Just taking her time...
SCORE!!!
She is now into posing when I take her picture.....who taught her this?!?!
My "not so little" girl!
LOVE THIS KID!
BFF's!!! These two girls.....love the friendship they share and the memories they are making and will make....love watching them grow up together.
What's up doc?
And then this happened.....I got my real estate license after a long time of studying and preparing. I can not wait to start this chapter of my life and think I will find extreme joy in helping people find a house they will call home and to help others sell their home. So if you are interested in doing either of these....give me a call....(had to have a quick plug for myself there....;)
Now back to the real business....this is Mallory with her new kitty. This kitten appeared last fall and stuck around for a few days. We didn't see it again until about a week after Peanut passed away. Its funny the timing God has for things. So this is her new friend. This cat LOVES Mallory...and will follow her everywhere. The kitty is half human...so this is Mallory introducing kitty to her favorite place...her closet!!! Had to show her new friend her shoes....;)
My little bunny......
Papa Ham & Grandma Ham came for a visit....getting in some snuggles with Papa.
Wearing Papa's hat....
More snuggles.....
Cousin Collin came for a weekend visit too....not a good picture but these two sure have fun together.
Also, not a good picture....but we attended another play...Charlotte's Web. Another success...
Mallory and Collin enjoying Charlotte's Web. It was such a cute production....
And again....Maci James was there! Mallory thought this was so funny since we unexpectedly saw her at the Cinderella play as well.
Two cuties.....!!!
Humble....always stay humble my dear. Mallory sure was concerned about Wilbur not getting first prize and so sad that Charlotte died. She sure does have a heart of gold, that girl. And this play has inspired Collin that he too would like to be in a play. Thanks Jacksonville for having such wonderful plays for our youth.
Birthday Party for Grant....striking a pose.
Take 1....Easter Sunday
Take 2....Easter Sunday.....
Take 3....I'll take it I guess.....
And she's out....
Grandma Barry's....the next generation of Barry cousins....these kids....
This picture just cracks me up.....each kid has such a different expression.....lol!
On the hunt...looking for her name!
She found it!!
SCORE!!!!
Coloring Easter eggs....in deep concentration
At the party again....sweet girl in such a sweet dress given by such a sweet friend.....
And back to egg dying...
Some of the masterpieces in the making...
And then there's this...this was my mother's concoction....and surprisingly enough-it turned out.
Back to the birthday party...watching the magician.
Mallory thought he was hilarious....
Easter morning...she was so excited for the Easter Bunny...Collin and Mallory couldn't figure out why he went through the window...lol! The Easter Bunny left bunny prints from the window to their baskets.
Who says you can't have an Easter egg hunt in your pjs?
Go girl!
On the hunt for the golden egg...
Being silly outside...
Love this picture...listening to a story from her Papa Karl. These two are something else...
Just hanging out at bible school.
Wacky Wednesday!!
Helping daddy at Nona & Karls.....
And finding a worm and wanting to keep it....;)
I know its a lot of pictures but have been so busy. Hopefully, we can keep up more with the posts. Mallory is growing so fast. She is really growing in height and shrinking in waist. Tall & skinny....Her vocabulary is also growing...she can tell quite the stories. Her knowledge...she still surprises me on the things she knows. She still loves her princesses, her love for animals, her daddy and DRAWING. She loves hamburgers, broccoli, chocolate milk and candy. She is so sweet and is doing so well with her manners without being told. She thanks us each night for her dinner and will say sorry without being told when she does wrong. So I am so proud of her for that...with that being said...I will say the 3's or worse than the 2's as far as being sassy and difficult. But hopefully this too will be short lived and I know that it's still probably not as bad as it could be....we will need to work on this. ;)
SPRING IS HERE!
