The Gleason Family

The Gleason Vacation.  

Sean was off the entire week and we had more of a "staycation" than a vacation, which, honestly, was amazing.  We got away to the Grand for a few days and rebuilt our back deck (pics up soon).  But in the meantime, here are a few of our growing baby girl and her ever-so-changing personality.  

Here is a picture of us at Tamera's Downtown for my Mother's Day dinner!

Yes, mom, I would surely like the lemon out of your bloody mary!

Quickly becoming SD's specialty: saving her "gifts" for the dinner table.  Hey, SD, way to go!  I was really hoping to lose my appetite.  Hey, Tamera's Downtown, way to go!  I was really excited when you didn't provide a changing table in the women's bathroom and you just had candles on a table that you did provide and I had to blow them out so my 16 month old wouldn't burn her fingers or all of the hair off her head.  Also, try putting a liner in the trash can and maybe your staff wont spit in my food because I placed dirty diapers and messy wipes in there.  Has anyone out there ever tried to change a diaper like this in the dark?  Hey, mom, way to go!  Great way to show what a great mom you are by not packing an extra outfit and bringing your baby back to the table naked.  

Our baby is quickly developing such a great personality!  Her obsessions are getting a little out of control.  They rank in the following: 1. Buckles 2. Bubble Guppies (it's a cartoon) 3. Elevators (as pictured below) 4. Must dip her own chips.

This picture shows just how seriously she takes swimming.  She looks like she is juicing up on Gatorade Prime and psyching herself out to go into "the big game"!  "Put me in, coach!  I can do this!"

And shes off...

Yes, I make her wear sunglasses.  I found these on amazon, and they are polarized for kids.  They were only $13.99 and they came with a strap that goes around her head so she can't take them off.  They are rubber, so they can't be broken and there is no top or bottom, so we don't have to worry about them going on the wrong way.  I feel way better knowing her eyes are protected!

Yes, laying out with mom.

Close up!

Playing Croquet with Daddy! 

Can we say attitude?  Yes we can.

Spaghetti.  Yummo.
