Nothing too exciting minus Mother's Day

There hasn't been too much exciting going on here the last few weeks. Jane's is finishing up the last bit of teaching (T-minus 8 days!) and then she's off for the summer. Dorothy is continuing to grow and grow and is getting so big. She is so much more playful now. She smiles and squeals and wiggles all the time. Little D as she gets called a lot these days has also been sleeping all the way through the night the last couple of weeks. She gets her last bottle at about 10 pm and then usually conks out until about 6 am, and the last few days made it to almost 8 am actually. It has been pretty awesome. Her new favorite thing is to sit in a chair or on the couch. She gets a big smile every time she gets to sit up there and watch some ESPN with Daddy of course. And that Daddy has been busy working and enjoying his job. Kenny also gets to spend a few hours with Dorothy all by himself in the mornings when Jane leaves for work and he has a blast playing with her and getting her ready for the day, complete with outfit and bow selection.
We also celebrated Mother's Day, Jane's first official one. She got surprised with a homemade craft that Dorothy (I helped some...) made for her. She also got some Amazon gift cards to use for some Kindle books as well as some of her favorite candy. She love's being a momma. We also surprised Grandma Cox with breakfast in bed, although she was already out of bed so we made her get back in!
We are excited for summer, vacations and getting to do a lot of fun things together. Only a few more days! Oh and we also had a recent impromptu family photo shoot...
Dorothy has discovered how to pull Mommy's hair, Jane is concerned...
The ladies!
Daddy and Dorothy
For fans of Bill & Ted's, this pose makes sense, as in, I am Dorothy Jane Cox S. Preston, Esquire...or every rose has its thorn, just like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song...
