What happened to this month?

Happy last day of March. Wow, I can't believe this month is over! It has been very busy for the Keepers' family. Between planning baby showers for almost everyone I know and keeping track of the due dates of the ones that are about to have their babies we did manage to sneek away to Washington, DC to cheer on our Baylor Bears (and of course catch the Duke game!) It was completely out of character for us being the planner that I am. We found out Sunday late afternoon that the Bears were going to DC and would be playing in the same region as Duke. We called our friends who live in DC and they invited us to stay with them. We got our bball tickets on Monday (thanks to a great family friend) and then booked our flight that night. We flew out Thursday morning (the day of the game) and slid into our seats with 11 minutes left in the previous game! I like to plan things out so that there is not alot of time in between events but this was a little too close even for me. We bought tickets to the Duke game the day of, which is an entire other story in itself! Bentlee spent time with MiMi and Pop in Katy and then GiGi and Big Daddy had her for Easter. We got back late Sunday night and started the next day more tired than before we left. But it was a blast and would do it all over again! Sorry our teams did not do so well but as the coaches say, "It is the experience we came here for!" We also took Bentlee to the zoo one weekend. She loved the Meercats (sp?) and the giraffes as well as running through the entire place. She did stop to sit on the fence near the rhinos. If she only knew how fast they can run, I don't think she would be so calm right there. It seems like April is even more jam packed than March with birthday parties, weddings, baby showers, remodeling, and Cotton Palace. So here's to the MomAgenda and very large cups of coffee!!!!

Where have we been?

So remember my first post where I put the disclaimer that I might not update too often, well, case in point I think it has been 3 weeks since my last one. Since then I turned 30, Bentlee started running everywhere, and she now eats at her own table in the kitchen. I bought a really cute table and chair set online to put in the playroom once it is finshed (if it ever gets started!) so she could have a place to sit and color or play or eat. I moved it to the kitchen since she started throwing a fit everytime I tried to put her in the highchair, and thought why not? She eats at a table at school, except those chairs are designed with safety straps and these are not, so I decided to try it. She loves eating at her "big girl" table, however, she also loves to get out of the chair and run around the house with food in her hands. Oh well, you can't win them all. Daylight savings time has been ok so far. She woke up at 7:30 which she thought was 6:30. She did take 2 naps and I put her down around 7:15 which she thought was 6:15. She has been fighting to fall asleep for the last hour but I think she is finally down. Hopefully she will sleep until 6:30 real time in the morning and we should be back on our schedule. Nick's mom is coming to stay with us at the end of the week. We are really excited to have her and hopefully mom and dad can catch up on some sleep. Here's to a great week!!!!
