The Great Outdoors

Lydia went on her first camping trip to Natchez Trace. We actually stayed in "wood tents" or rustic cabins in which we could plug up a space heater. Lydia amazingly went to sleep well by herself in the cabin but woke up confused in the middle of the night or maybe just chilled. Then she had to sleep with mommy...argh! She is a wild sleeper! I got no sleep between her and the potty trips. The trip was fun though. We hiked a little and rode wheelers and motorcycles. Jonathan and I attempted a bike ride with Lydia but the trail got a little too rough and I was trying to balance this huge basketball tummy. I did manage it and had more fun on the four wheeler. Don't worry, I was careful!

Easter "Egg-citement"

Lydia loved Easter this year! She had a cute bunny smocked dress (from consignment...those are the best) and homemade hairbow to match. We go to Bolivar, TN for family Easter celebration every year. Lydia found 28 eggs thanks to her hunting squad made of mom, dad, g'pa carter, g'ma carter, and Aunt Katelyn. And she had to carry 2 baskets..."little independent." She especially liked eating the treats from the eggs. After the hunt we had to make the traditional trek down to the creek. She had the luxurious ride in the heavy-duty wagon with cousin Elise pulled by g'pa Carter and pushed by g'ma Carter.

Scary Snow

We actually had some snow a few weeks ago...I know it was already March! Lydia for some reason was scared of it. She thought it was making everything dirty and would point and say "ehh." Though, she did eat some snow cream...Dad's favorite thing about the snow. She got to go sledding with Carter family and dad while mom had to work.
