Proud Mommy

 My tulips are blooming some, they are soo pretty!

 Jeffries... my mom found these ruffle lace socks for .50 at a consignment store, she said she used to pay $5.00 a pair for me when i was a child, that was 25+ years ago. I guess they aren't in style anymore, but socks are socks and what 2 month old cares about the style of her socks! I think they are cute!

Today was awesome, lil man did such a great job using the potty all day! I ironed a dinosaur on his shirt that he had to have at the store yesterday! He loves dino's :)
