Pictures from February

Brady finished 2nd year course work Friday and we have been celebrating.  Thanks to willing and serving neighbors we have had 2 dates this weekend.  Friday after Brady's test we went to Outback for dinner and then got massages (Yay for Groupon) followed by shakes (Yay Yay for Groupon).  Then Saturday Brady had to study, but that night we went to the Med School's yearly Ball.  It was a lot of fun.  Brady let me buy a new dress and Brady got all cleaned up.  We danced, ate, chatted, and did a lot of people watching.  Now Brady has boards on April 21st, but until then no classes just studying all day 6 days a week.  He will then start 3rd year May 1st.  Med School is going too fast, but we are loving living in Pittsburgh.

Enough about us, now onto the BEST thing ever:
Paisley moved to a big girl bed a month ago and it has been great, I imagined it so much worse in my mind.  She still hates photos, but here are some we were able to capture.  I think I will enjoy taking pictures so much more when she will sit still and pose for once.






Lately, our days consist of A LOT of dressing up.  Paisley loves to wear "Princess" dresses everywhere and even to bed. 




Brady skipped school a couple weeks ago and took us to the Science Center.  I think we liked it more than Paisley, but here are some pictures from that as well. 











Lastly, I had to post this picture of Paisley and her friend Andi.  Paisley loves Andi and Andi is so good to Paisley.  We watched Andi a couple weeks ago and she brought a bag full of things to do, it was as if she was there to watch Paisley  : ).  She is always writing letters, books, packages, cards, etc... for Paisley.  She is a good example to Paisley.  I know her mom and I were meant to be friends and I know we will be for a long time.
