Pittsburgh Trip

Back in February we headed over to Pittsburgh for a fun few days with my parents. My dad had some conferences there, so we had fun swimming at the hotel, eating out, going to the Children's museum, and watching some movies. The kids had so much fun with Grandma and Grandpa Merrill. There flight got delayed, and they ended up not coming in on Tuesday night like they were supposed to. They finally made it Wednesday morning, and when we got to the airport to pick them up Gavin got so excited his little eyes welled up with tears. Seriously, the cutest thing I have ever seen. We were so happy they had finally made it!

This cute little girl would only go in the hot tub. Once in a while she would get in the pool for a second, but then realized the hot tub was so much warmer!

Easter

We had a fun Easter this year. We did a big Easter egg hunt with friends. They had a little small room just for the little ones, and the rest of the kids were outside. Adam went with Gavin, and I went with Ruby. Once she realized that her dad wasn't there she didn't even care about the eggs and just kept saying, "where daddy?" Then I got her back into the action. That girl loves her daddy. So sweet.

Sunday we had dinner with some friends, and tried to get a some good family pictures. I tried getting some of Gavin and Ruby outside at the church, but Gavin wouldn't even stand in the picture...ha. So, this is what we got.

Most importantly, we got to celebrate the Resurrection of our Savior. I am so grateful for my Savior, and know that he lives. I feel so blessed to know the things that I know. Our Heavenly Father loves us, and I know he is watching over me and my family.

18 months

I can't believe this cute little thing is 18 months! She went to nursery for the first time today, and did great! She is still my little baby, and can't believe she is old enough to be in there. My little Ruby girl makes me so happy. She is such a joy and knows how to make me smile everyday. Some of her favorite things right now are:

Her "cee-cee" or toothbrush with "bubble" or toothpaste.
"Ah-me" this means she usually wants any sort of candy or treat she can get her cute little hands on.
Books... she loves, loves to just sit down on my lap and flip through stacks of books. I love it too.
Her "binkie" and her "binkie". Translation: her binkie and her blankie.
Wants a book when she goes down for her nap now
She also has to have every blanket in sight stacked on top of her while I sing to her before I lay her down for bed.
"go-go"...go-gurts
She loves putting on Gavin's clothes. Almost everyday she grabs one of his shirts or pjs and wants us to put them on. Sometimes she wants his underwear on too. She'll walk around all day in his clothes. So dang cute.
She loves to go outside and walk around.
She's afraid of ants.

I can't imagine my life without this sweet girl. I feel so blessed to be her mother and just want to squeeze her every chance I get. Stop growing baby girl.

January Recap

The beginning of January started off slow with two sick kids. Gavin started off with a bad cold which turned into a little pneumonia and an ear infection. He was bound to the couch for a couple days. He was SICK. Then Ruby got pretty sick with a couple ear infections but luckily no pneumonia... Just a bad cold. Adam was gone for residency interviews for most of the sickness. We were so happy when he came home.
January was long, but we made it through. No more sickies, and let's keep it that way!

We had fun playing in the snow.
