This is the last post (hopefully) that will just have Miss Bailey's pics as little sis is set to arrive in the next two weeks (again, hopefully).
I can't believe Miss Bailey is one month away from being two! It has gone by way to fast, and we have enjoyed every moment of it...even the tantrums and scares that have come with having a strong willed child. She is the highlight of my everyday and I can't wait to watch her with her baby sister. This month she has been quite the trooper, dealing with a super prego Mommy with bronchitis and she has sensed the need for extra snuggle time. She is a little firecracker that knows what she wants and how to get it. Now that she is talking all the time, it's hard listing out all the new words she says, but her favorite words are: "pretty", "Moana" - our current favorite movie, "No, no" - complete with the finger wag and eye roll (lord, give us strength), "Wow", "Ray-Ray" (from Princess & the Frog and Grandpa Schorr, "read" and "silly". She loves playing outside - no matter what the weather, dancing with Daddy and GiGi (who she refers to as "Guh-Guh" for some reason even though she knows how to say Gee), dressing up fancy, getting our nails done, hopping, racing with Callie, making art and doing puzzles. Her mind fascinates us with how much she takes in (and repeats if you're not careful) and how quick she is to pick up a new skill. She loves reading and being read to while taking her books into her new tent and studying each page carefully. She loves to show off her favorite animal sounds and actions to anyone around and will say "Bye" to every single person she sees. She is also really starting to love interacting with other kids, playing at the park, watching their movements, holding hands and learning from them - it is one of my favorite things to watch. We love this little punkin with all our hearts and can't wait to see what new adventures are in store.
Seriously too much cuteness
This past week Bailey and I took advantage of a beautiful morning and went to visit the Overland Park Arboretum. They have a new children's exploring area and we wanted to check it out. She loved looking at all the pretty flowers beginning to bloom, but had a bit of a hard time restraining herself from picking them. Luckily there were a few dandelions that did the trick. She also loved watching the trains in the train park and chasing them around. We'll definitely be making more trips out there soon!
We loved chasing the trains
Fun morning with my girl

We met new friends to play with
We love celebrating St. Patrick's Day in our house, but with a super prego and an almost 2 year old, we were a bit limited on activities. But Bailey loves a dance party, so we threw on our St. Patrick's Day onsie that we wore last year (and fits better this year) and a tutu and danced around to some tunes. Here are a few of my favorite dance moves:
The Laughing Leprechaun
This is our touchdown dance
The leaping lizard
Aye Aye Captain
Twist and shout
The Mardi Gras Hustle
The Beady Ballerina
We didn't get a lot of snow this year, much to Bailey's dismay, but we got enough to cover the ground and go play in it this past month. Since Mom was under the weather, Bailey brought the snow fun inside and brought me the Olaf she made with Daddy. Such a sweet girl.

Can they get any cuter?
We are definitely an outdoor girl and whenever the weather is nice (or even tolerable) we are out playing. She loves exploring nature, playing at the dog park and doing fun crafts outside. She really loves getting the chance to run around free with her brother in the backyard and he definitely appreciates it. And if Uncle Mat is around to play, she is in heaven!
Trying to climb down steps in GiGi's glasses is not easy
Proud mama...she drew a Jayhawk
When you are a budding fashionista, a closet full of princess dresses is hardly enough. Luckily we picked up an awesome armoir with the nursery set and it is filled to the brim. We had hid the dresses in there for a few weeks, but opened Pandora's box this weekend when she insisted on wearing her fancy dresses around the house and she went nuts. When she comes up to you and yells "Pretty" be prepared to find a fancy princess dress because otherwise she will make you pay. Whether it's for dancing or just being silly around the house, she loves to try on everything. We can go an entire week wearing an Anna or Elsa dress, but we just picked up a Moana dress that is our current favorite...make way, make way!
She likes showing off her swim goggles

Urban Air is definitely our jam, so if anyone suggests going, we are always up for it! We had so much fun with Everly and Cullen, they are definitely the three musketeers. She loves jumping and the trampolines help Mom's back so it has been a win-win for us, though Mom can't always jump as high as she thinks (don't want to birth the baby on a trampoline). Daddy even got to join us on one of his half days!
Jumping buddies
I love this one of them cracking up
Jumping with Gigi
We are getting to start our new round of Wiggles & Giggles and we are really excited because Miss Holly is back! She is our absolute favorite and I can't wait until Bailey walks in and sees her today! We had fun at the last W&G class but it was on Saturday and it wasn't quite the same atmosphere. We didn't get to many pictures from class this month because Mom didn't get to go the entire time...we had a wedding and bronchitis that sidelined Mom, but Dad, GiGi and PopPop stepped up and got to enjoy it with her.
This girl loves her Bubba and he secretly loves her back. I love catching them in candid moments when they aren't paying much attention. She gets a little too comfortable with her Tete, but he is very patient with her and we're quick to step in if he looks annoyed.

She always wants to share her bed with Bubba

He is very patient
We are always on the go and there are fewer times that she slows down, but on rare occasions we can catch a snuggle or a sleepy princess, we enjoy every minute.
We'll leave you with a few more of our favorite pics from this past month! Some of them really make me laugh.

Hope you and your family are well! We'll keep you posted on Baby Girl Schorr #2 as soon as we can!
XOXO,
Sara, Brian, Bailey, Tequila and Baby Girl Schorr #2
