Mama's been a slacker


I know, I know, it's been too long! Don't give up on up on us though. It's been a crazy few weeks and we've had a lot going on. I really haven't been working a whole lot because work just hasn't been busy-no babies being born and no babies being born too early (so I guess the latter is a good thing). We've been going to playdates with friends and Emmy had a nasty cold the week of St Patty's Day.

We went out for a walk in Emmy's new wagon that she got for her birthday from her cousin, Connor (and his Mommy and Daddy and his Grandma too). Here Emmy is during the maiden voyage:


We also went to the Kohl Children's Museum in Glenview for a family day with our playgroup. Emmy LOVED the chicks but we found that she was a little too little for most of the other exhibits. We are looking forward to going again and probably getting a membership when she is a little older.

Emmy also has 2 new teeth that arrived on March 17 and March 18...in the midst of her terrible cold. She has handled teething so well and this was no exception. She had a fun 2nd St Patty's Day even though she had such a yucky cold.

Emmy and I had a fun girls shopping day yesterday while Daddy was in Milwaukee for a bachelor party. We went to the mall to see the Easter Bunny and get her picture taken. She really wasn't too thrilled with the Easter Bunny but we did get a picture of her not crying. It is a slightly better picture than with Santa. Then we walked around the mall and ran into our friend, Addie, and her mommy and daddy too. We looked at fun spring clothes and then at some maternity clothes for me. Then, we went to Babies R Us and picked out a purple Tinkerbell Chair and a few new sippy cups. I am trying to teach her how to drink from a cup other than the born free cups and something with a little harder spout. I think I may have found success in the Playtex cup!

We came home after our girls day, played, had dinner, played some more and then Emmy was ready for bed! I stayed up and worked on pictures and watched the Final Four UNC-Villanova game. We had a great time together but we were both excited to see Daddy this am!

We are going to FD for Drew's baptism next weekend and we are very excited. We also have our big ultrasound next Friday and we will be finding out if Baby Klitzke #2 is a girl or a boy!!! Stay tuned! Have a wonderful week! We love you all!
love,
Erika, Matt, Emily and #2
