I keep thinking I want my little girl to start crawling because it is so cute and she works so hard at it but then I stop and think about it rationally and realize that I probably don't want her to start quite yet.  She will soon be on the move, unable to be left just sitting in one place and getting into everything.  So, let's delay the crawling a little!! :)

On another note, here are some photos of Trevi lately!


 Trevi loves helping dad in the yard especially when it means she gets to ride in the backpack!

 OK, she totally did this on her own.  Dad's rides must be a little crazy!

 Happy girl!

 I leave her by her toys and come back and she is no where near them!


 practicing her crawl!

 Still holding on

 she was literally holding on for 30 minutes! Safety first!

Loves to sit!

After 28 years of being asked what my favorite holiday is, I can finally saw I have one and it is all thanks to this little peanut! (well, and some help from Brett!!)

 I love Mother's Day!
 My sister-in-law Erica and my mother-in-law Bo with Erica's 3 babies! Gavin (6), Coco (3) and baby Memphis (6 months)!

 Bo, Trevi and I!

Bo, Olivia (2) and Mia (8 months now)
My other sister-in-law Michelle, sent me this picture.  It was the closest I could get to having a picture with all of them! 
However, if you know anything about Mich you know she is the one taking the picture so it would be hard to get one of all of them!!! :)

 My sister-in-law Mich with Bo and Olivia!

So typical me, I was great with my camera the first half of the day and then I simply forgot for the rest.  I would have loved to get some pictures of my sisters and their kids with my mom but things at my house get a little hectic with 6 grandchildren running around, moms chasing them in and out of the boat!  Since, the weather is finally nice and we will be spending more time outside doing family BBQ's more pictures are sure to pop up!

While I might not have a ton of pictures of my family with Trevi (let me just say, we are not big picture taking people) I did have these two amazing helpers with me the day I became a mom!! I could not have done it without them! Thanks for helping bring Trevi into the world Mom and Amy!

 After the epidural!

OK, so this is the best I could do for pictures of my sisters with their kids.  However, I just want to wish them a Happy Mother's Day as well. I am lucky enough to have 3 sisters who are all great moms and it is really fun to watch their kids grow up! Trevi will undoubtedly have lots of friends!
