On Saturday, March 16th, Anna Kate’s real birthday, we went over to Grand Papa and Kay Kay’s house to celebrate Anna Kate!  Thank you guys so much for hosting our Pond family for lots of birthday fun and surprises!  Anna Kate takes care of Noemi, just like Rose; so sweet!

After all the present fun had come to an end, Rose was ready to call it quits!  Lol, she always lays on something random when she is tired and ready to go to sleep.  She fusses all day long, but she will never fuss to go to sleep.  We’ll just find her laying on the counter top (I’m not joking) or anywhere she feels like relaxing.  I wonder if she likes hard surfaces because she has slept in the pack n’ play since day 1 until now.  She hates cuddling in our beds… and I’m thinking it’s because they are too soft.  We need to transition her into the toddler bed soon.  It’s a little bit softer, so hopefully she’ll get used to it.  (this was random… I’m so behind and so tired)  I’m trying to get caught up before Easter but I’m at least a week behind.  We’ve been SO sick and SO busy lately.  We’re good though; crazy good!
