Tap and Ballet Class


There is nothing cuter than TWO year old's in little tutu's! Ella started her dance class after talking about it for ages. Seriously cute..... hence the millions of pictures. She really loved it and has been showing me her new moves all week:) It is an hour long class so by the end she was a little over it but it went a lot better than I thought. She is looking forward to her next class. Sorry for the overload in pictures:)

Crazy kids

Totally forgot these cute pictures of the kiddos from PF Chang's. The little wax sticks are very entertaining. The little glasses are my favorite and are always good for a laugh:)


On a side note: Ella is all the way potty trained. Wohooooo. Two weeks ago I just started putting underwear on her instead of her diaper and that was it we never looked back. It is so nice. I can't even believe how nice it is. Not changing a two year old's poopy diaper is AWESOME. I can't believe how spoiled we are with Ella. She is so easy going with everything. I was dreading potty training but she made it so easy for me. She has yet to have an accident. Hopefully it will stay that way even though I just said that. She is starting to hold it longer and longer now that it isn't as exciting. She stays dry threw naps and night time. She LOVES being a big girl. And I am so proud of my little bug:)
Last week I celebrated the big 26! It made me feel a little old, but all in all had a great birthday. We went to Town square mall with Stewart, Ella, my Mom, Ashlyn and James. We had lunch at Brio and it was wonderful. We did a little shopping and just hung out. Then that night we went to P.F Chang's with Stewart's family to celebrate all the March birthdays. It was yummy as well. I was STUFFED all day long.
Stewart got me some cute stuff and made me a cake and got me flowers. Very sweet. Although on Monday I was driving home from work and Ella wanted to talk to me and the first thing she said when I got on the phone was, " we made you a cake mommy." Stewart had just finished hiding it so it would be a surprise. Then when I got home she met me outside and told me they hid my present in the office. I guess two year olds are not to be trusted:) Thanks to everyone for a great birthday. I was spoiled.

Richard and Erika were here for the week and we threw Erika a bridal shower. It was fun and they got a lot of good stuff. Especially from Anna, Danielle and I:) I know Erika will not be pleased with the pictures below but I of course wanted to show off Danielle's hat making skills:) And how awesome does Richard look?


We of course had fun with Ainsley while they were in town. Danielle and I took the girls to the park one afternoon. The weather in Utah is not so great and Ainsley hadn't been to the park in a while. The girls had a fun time and it was cute to watch them play together.

What do you do when your husband leaves you for a week...

....You go to Disneyland. Kristin and I took the girls since our husbands had a conference in Philadelphia. We figured it would be a long week unless we broke it up a little. We had a lot of fun and the girls did great. Ella took a nap shortly after getting there but then was up and ready for a fun filled day. She did great on the rides and loved all of them. She has a little adventurous side that's for sure. As soon as we got off a ride she would say she wanted to ride it again. Poor Elliot was traumatized on some of the rides. Ella tells me everyday that Elliot cried on the carousel, and that, "she not like it:)" We were all tired when the day was over.

Meeting some of the princesses! We waited in a very long line but the girls had been talking about them so much and were so excited to meet them we had to wait. Totally worth it they were so excited. Ella did this little trick for Ariel. She kept saying, "see Ariel, see."

Ella eating her Mickey Mouse suckers. Messy but she loved them. Also with her leg up chillin' on It's a small world.

Ella was excited to see Minnie Mouse again. I'd have to say she was more excited the first time. The girls loved playing in her house.

Ella's favorite ride was Buzz Light year:) She still talks about it. Also her messy hands and face after a tasty churro:)

Ella was so glad to see her Daddy when he got home. The next morning she came into our room and got into bed with us and just sat right next to Stewart with a huge smile on her face. She sure does love her Daddy.
