Tuesday afternoon with my baby
Wednesday we loaded up the car and went to chick-fil-a for lunch.
We now go through the drive thru and then park and eat.
It is so much easier and it is still super yummy!
Someone loves applesauce...
And Chick-Fil-A nuggets
Thursday morning selfies.
My neighbors do a preschool on Tuesdays and Thursdays and we hosted this week, this is a picture of us before everyone came over (and before Caroline took the worlds longest nap)
Friday morning selfies.
My big sister from my sorority, Laura, came over with her son, Graham, for lunch and catching up.
They just moved to the area and I had such a great time seeing both
of them and watching the kids play.
She grabbed the phone as I was snapping the picture and this is what came out.
She is a selfie pro. :)
Friday night we stopped by my cousins' house to drop off dinner.
My Aunt Leslie was visiting because Jessica had her baby (yay!).

Saturday morning, I got up with this nugget
Big sister joined us about an hour later
Once Ben came downstairs, Elizabeth decided it was time to climb

I went to get a massage and while I was gone, Ben decided to make something delicious...
Saturday afternoon we celebrated Pi Day with two homemade pies.
Ben made custard pie and three-layer chocolate pie.
So yummy!
Jim, Anuja, and Samara came over for Pi Day
Samara and Caroline had a ton of fun playing together
Ben and Caroline AND Jim and Samara
Saturday night, Ben showed me how to make pizza
