April

April was a good month! I didn't really remember what we did, but after looking at my pictures I can say it was a good one. 


All April Will had T-Ball practices and games. He did so good! He was such a big hitter and Ava and I loved cheering him on.


Ava wanted to badly to play on the team too. It was so sad to me that I kept having to break her heart and make her sit by me on the sidelines. At least once a game she'd break free and run out on the field.



Ava loves getting her hands on any of my necklaces, shoes, belts...and this Sunday she had her heart set of wearing my belt. So I let her wear it to church. She rocked it in nursery. 


We spend at least a little bit of everyday at the park across the street. April isn't too crazy hot yet so we got outside as much as we could before the heat gets to be too much.



Another park day :)



Ava has turned into quite the early riser. She likes to come in and cuddle with us- i.e. lay directly on my neck.


This night she was soon tired but refused to go to bed early. She insisted on Dad play horsey with her even though she was literally falling asleep.


She's still our little monkey


and she still takes her hydration seriously :)


March

March seems so long ago! Ava looks so little here even though it was only a few months ago.
Below is Ava at a cute little birthday party.
I get such a kick out of seeing her interact with other kiddos




One afternoon I decided to make a volcano with Will and Ava. It was really cool....but I ended up killing Grandpa's grass where the lava exploded :/ 


Cuddling cousins


My goofball




The Gilbert Temple is simply gorgeous. 



We spend a lot of time blowing bubbles


Always a lady...


Love this lil' sidekick!

Valentine's Day 2015

This year Jeff was out of town for Valentine's Day so a few the week before the 14th we went out to celebrate. 




Neither of us were very hungry so we decided instead of main dinners we'd order an appetizer and a dessert...we greatly underestimated the sizes of both. We thought these mini milkshakes were going actually be mini....so we ordered four. We also were feeling a blooming onion - I promise Jeff and I haven't started doing drugs, but I'm sure our waiter thought we had a serious case of the munchies. 
The appetizer was huge! The milkshakes were not mini and we both had a great time munching down. It wasn't until later that night we both had serious tummy aches :)


This was actually a really good Valentine's date since we ended up just talking forever, making each other laugh really hard, and eating junk food until we felt sick. Ha, love ya babe! 
Happy Valentine's Day!

My Pretty Girl

Ava loves my make-up, specifically my lipstick. Pretty sure I don't own one thing of lipstick now that hasn't been squashed down to a nub. 
This day though, she just looked so cute I couldn't be mad. Although lets be honest, I really never get mad at her when she plays with my make-up. I get such a kick out of it! She's such a little monkey and pretends to put it on in the same exact order that I do. It's really only the lipstick she actually puts on...as evidenced below......

When I caught her with my lipstick she just just kept saying, "so pretty, so pretty."
Haha, okay Ava. SO pretty.

February 

Jeff taking a study break with Will. Will obviously not as into it as Jeff lol 

Ava fell and hit her right eye :( 
We both cried. 

We went on a lot of family walks. The weather is just glorious here in the winter. 

Rocking her jeans and pig tails :) 

 She still just loves her cousin Will

We made sugar cookies. It was an awesome mess and a really good time.
