Tuesday was Mardi Gras, so Mommy and Paw-Paw didn't have to work. So Paw-Paw came to visit me, and we went to the mall. There's a carousel at the mall. I've seen it many times when I go there with Grannie during the week, mostly when we meet Aunt Barbara to visit, have lunch, and walk around. I hear the buzzer and know to look because that means the horses are going to go around. But Tuesday I got to ride the horse!!! I rode with Mommy first, then Paw-Paw took me for a second round. So... now, if you're ever at the mall with me, make sure you have $2 so I can ride!
See how happy I am!

Here I am with Mommy getting ready to ride for the first time.
Grannie's taking my picture and I'm smiling really big!

I loved it so much, Paw-Paw took me back for a second round.

Because it was a holiday week, Mommy had to work on Friday. Grannie works on Fridays, too. Daddy was home all day, but he had some work to do, so Gram came to stay with me for a while.

Saturday, I got to go to a 1st Birthday Party for my friend, Finn, our neighbor. Ironically, Mommy and Daddy know our neighbor (Finn's mommy, Shelly) from LaTech. So I got to meet some of Mommy's friends from school at the party, too. Happy Birthday, Finn!!
Saturday night, we went to dinner with Grandpa and Mrs. Judy. And today, I had spring pictures taken by Mr. Matt - we're really excited to see how they turned out! It was a gorgeous sunny day, so we think they'll be great!
