Happy Easter 2012

Happy Easter!! Easter landed on the day before we hit the road to leave Dover Delaware for good. We were lucky enough to be able to swing by friends for an egg hunt and then grandma and aunt linda and uncle David drove from dc and came for lunch, bringing all the food needed!! We spent the evening with the mittens for dinner (I didn’t take any photos but they were the last people to say good bye to, yes I cried)! I hate leaving and was very sad to leave- more than I expected! Thank you to all our wonderful friends for everything you’ve done for us and how great you made our time in Dover!!!! We love and miss you!!!!!20120415-175555.jpg

Night downtown annapolis

So the last week was INSANE before we left Dover and to make it even crazier we drove to Annapolis for a fun night out while our friends parents offered to watch the kids (so so so so nice of them)!!! It was last minute and a bit crazy with everything we still had to get done but we were so stressed and so sick of doing house/move stuff it was good for us to get out:)

Let’s just say we all had a blast!!!! Great dinner and the bar hoped for awhile… We even stayed out until right before bars close (we are old we are never out that late anymore hah). Thanks again Ryan and Shannon for the wonderful evening if adult fun, it was needed and well worth it!!!:)we will miss you guys!!!!!!!!

Miss the mittens

Man we are going to miss the mittens like you can’t even imagine!! The mittens are a wonderful family that we have became very close to. They have been around when tobins been gone and they truly are family to us. Last weekend we had one last “fun” get together. We packed an overnight bag for all four of us and camped out in their house:)sandy and Dave are like grandma and grandpa to the girls. Erin is such a sweet heart and we’ve became real close as well. Here are done photos from the other night… We had some really good laughs and I’ll never forget it, thanks again for everything guys!!!!!! We will miss you:(

Not small she’s petite :)

 

So many people keep saying HOW SMALL Anna is… I’ve decided she’s not small she is petite:)

Anna: 18.12 lbs @ 1 year = 14% for weight, 11% in height…

but she is proportional when it comes to height and weight, she’s just not HUGE like Ella was as a baby.

We have her 1 year checkup today, Ella was a handful during the appointment as usual and Anna was not thrilled to be there at all. She has been soooo crabby lately, I think she is teething or getting sick– who knows! Anyways I made it through the doc appointment still some what sane ha. I feel so bad, the older they get the harder it is getting their shots… Anna whaled like crazy, WAY more than Ella ever did and even put on a dramatic show after the shots even after I had picked her up. You should of seen the look she gave the nurse, yikes!

Today work was insane and Anna just screamed and WHINED all day long, I think she is getting sick… NOT FUN! Let’s just say I am glad today is over and I have caught up on things since they went to bed but it is WAAAY to late already and I need to get to bed ha. Typical for me.

…. 6 days until the movers will be here, AHHHHHH!!!!!!!

Anna first steps!!

It was a big night in the Gannett household, Anna took her first 3 steps tonight!! She did it several times and we clapped and cheered every time:)yah Anna. Ella was a great big sister and cheered her on by teasing her with “Ella’s” toys Anna always wants ha. She still prefers to crawl but shell be walking, no running before we know it constantly!! I bet she’s walking before we leave Dover which is 2 weeks from today (Monday). Yikes where did my baby go???!!!!!! I love watching her grow and her personality blossom for sure:)

I know what I want to do with my company now and am READY!!! Check out my new blog, my new website is still under construction but it will be done in the next month or 2.

So excited to what will come in the future for Holly Gannett Photography & Design, www.hg-pd.com/blog.
