Yep, I got pee'd on

Oh brother!  One of the top embarassing moments of being a mommy happened on Saturday morning.  Jer and I decided to go to our fave brunch spot, The Perk, in the morn.  Well, lil missy was in a feisty but good mood that morning. 

"This will be fun!  Done it a million times," we thought.

First 20 minutes, best baby ever.  Got compliments from the waitress, people sitting next to us loved her leg warmers and ribbon skirt, she was giggling and sitting in her highchair.

BOOM!  It hits.  From the table next to us I get hit with a spit wad.  Awesome.  Laugh it off, whatever.  Then, the demon in our child comes out.  Doesn't want to sit in her seat.  Go to hold her, food goes flying everywhere.  Decide to put her next to daddy so she can stand, tries to swan dive it off the seat.

Here comes the best part.

I go to pick her up and realize I should go change the diaper.  At that very moment in time, my hand becomes sopping wet and I feel a trickle begin to go down my front.  What do I do??  Freeze and mouth to Jeremy, "She's peeing on me". 

Oh goodness gracious what was I thinking?!

I continue to bolt out of the restaurant with a handful of pee and the front of me looking like a disaster.  The poor hostess looks at me in complete confusion with the thought of, What the hell?!

As soon as I get outside, I couldn't help but just laugh.  Laugh.  And then laugh some more.  I mean, who gets peed on while the diaper is still on?! 

Baby Girl, rockin the new toddler stroller.  Loved it and the big jacket that she got to wear since it was FREEZiNG!

Easter

Piper's 1st Easter was today, and a good day it was.  It started with one happy baby who slept in until 6:30.  Today we weren't awoken to a crying baby, rather a baby giggling in her bed.  I crawled into her room to spy and see what she was doing and she was peeking in between the bars of her bed watching me.  As soon as I took her out of bed it was time to see what the Easter Bunny brought!

We snuggled in mommy and daddy's bed and took the goodies out to play! 

We went to church at The Casa and it was lively as usual.  And Piper was FABULOUS!  It was her first mass and she did so well.  It was outside and she loves to be in grass and playing so I think that might have helped a bit;)

After church it was time to get our brunch on.  We headed over to the Hornbeck household for some sub sammies, beverages and play. 

Later, we went to Grama Mary's house to celebrate with mama's side of the family. 

It was a low key day which was just the day we needed.  Piper had fun and enjoyed being loved on by everyone.

Cheers to busy days of doing the family shuffle, playing outside in gorgeous AZ weather, families that love each other and celebrating a very special holiday such as Easter.

My Recent Faves

 

Ten Months/Spring Break

This kid of ours is growing too fast!  Ten months old, I swear each month goes by faster and faster.  Well her ten month "b-day" just happens to fall during my Spring Break.  Can I just say...HEAVEN!  I was talking with Jeremy the other night about going back to work in August for the next school year.  Last year, going to work was hard but nice at the same time.  It was nice to get away from a newborn baby and see that the world was still out there!  However, I have a feeling this year is going to be a bit different...I have a feeling that it's going to be rather hard since I lOvE my days with Piper.  Come August, I don't think I'm going to want to leave my little partner in crime;)

Now that I got completely sidetracked, on to the fun stuff!  

• She's definitely in a 12 month outfit, ahhh!  It's rather interesting, depending on the brand she can still squeeze into a 3 month onesie-strange but true.
• Piper's current menu: pancakes, waffles, toast, apples, nectarines, pasta with grandma sues homemade sauce-going to be a sunday night staple in the hornbeck household, potatoes, blueberries, nanners, raspberries, chicken and rice.  Honestly, anything EXCEPT broccoli.  Good lord that child gets gas like crazy with broccoli, NEVER AGAIN!  
• Current words:mama, dad, matt, book, quack!, no!(yells it at the dog), love you, bye
• She waves hello and good bye to anybody and everybody
• Pointing!  
• Now the big one...standing on her own!  AHHH!  This just happened today and it freaked me out!  Walking is right around the corner and I know it's going to just happen so suddenly.  
• Piper still loves books more than anything else
• She is a social butterfly and loves to be center of attention...where in the world did she get that from?  hhahaha;) 
• She loves to help cook and clean, my kind of lady!

Books, books, books!  She also enjoys taking things out and putting them back inside something. 

Gorgeous spring break.  Perfect sky with a light breeze and an iced tea with lemon, sweet perfection.

TUSHY!  Loves bath time or should I say splash time?!

Now, this break will finish off with a zoo date tomorrow, butterfly exhibit and children's museum with daddy.  Yes, daddy FINALLY gets to do something fun and not go to work:)

...Nine...Months...

Yowza, so much has happened this past month!  I'm just going to get right to it:)
Things to brag about:

• Piper now wiggles her booty and dances whenever she hears music or eats something that is yummy!
• Auntie Christy and Uncle Matt have babysat Miss Piper and they have taught her so many things like high fives, climbing on the stairs and sitting in her big girl ducky chair.
• Piper is now eating more table food.  She LOVES guacamole, nectarines, raspberries, blueberries, pancakes, bananas, apples and crackers.  She HATES carrots, bread, pasta and really any kind of vegetable.
• Our big girl has FINALLY broken her two top teeth.  Poor thing was working on those for far too long, about 4 freaking months!  We are all very thankful for them to have broken through.
• She definitely crawls and crawls fast.
• She loves to sit in the bathroom and watch mama get ready for her day.
• She loves when daddy dresses for work and she gets to play with his tie:)  So cute!
• Piper is also pulling herself up and scooting around the furniture.  She is a risk taker and it's driving me bonkers!
• Pipes also has some allergies:(  Luckily, Claritin is all she needs during the day to make it all better.

I will say that this is my all time favorite age.  Her personality is coming out more and more, she is so active and she watches everything we do and then imitates it.  It's really neat to watch her take in something and witness her learning and doing it!  I love that she laughs at Haylee the puppy, she loves her so much.  She also will give you the courtesy laugh when you're being funny.  She is too stinking smart!

 On our daily walk.  We go all around the neighborhood, favorite stops include auntie and uncles house and the park!

 Love the passed out position!

 "Daddy you're so silly!"

 Only our child would race to a Budweiser can

 Piper and her puppy waiting for daddy to come home!

 Cheeeeeeeeese!
