Etsy sale!

I made my first sale on etsy! She even bought three! I'm so excited about the sale! Is it sad that I just want to buy Evie clothes with my profit? Haha. I haven't yet, but I am sure tempted.

Evie pictures.

Aunt Janna sent some gifts from London. Evie loves the flags! I've hidden her headband so it will still be alive when Janna gets home. (Don't mind her filthy shirt, this was right after/during dinner)



She wanted to play dress ups, and then she kept saying, "itchy," until she ripped the dress off herself.

We went to the dinosaur park!



Trying to blow dandelion seeds!


We went to meet Jason downtown for lunch one day (obviously a byu game day), we waited and waited, and I let Evie play in the dirt with "sticks!" while we waited.


Found a football and was throwing it to the other kids.

Pretending to "bwo" up the balloon.


She's getting so tall, and resourceful! She gets up on her little tip-toes and can unlock our bolt lock!

A is for adorable!

My friend just had a baby and let me practice taking pictures using her newborn as my model! We were cut a little short because Evie was having some issues with teething so I got to hold her while taking some pictures. Needless to say it was a little difficult at that point. However, we got some GREAT pictures! I forget how very much I love tiny newborns!! Anyways, I'm so glad Brittney let me use her two beautiful girls to practice!

Happy birthday Jason!

Jason's birthday was on Saturday, but we waited until Monday to go out to celebrate. (His birthday coupon wasn't good for weekends)

Evie stayed up past her bedtime. It is very rare that I will let her stay up past bedtime, but I made an exception for Jason's birthday. She was getting a bit cranky and didn't really want to eat her food (in the beginning) so I let her try a lemon... she loved it! The lemon in the above picture is actually her second slice of lemon.



Yum, birthday ice cream!

Montana... so far

 We're up in Montana visiting for a couple of days. We went out to a delicious place for breakfast called Stella's. While we were waiting to be seated Evie wanted to floss her teeth.

 Jason and I got to go to a gun club and shoot. It was my first time shooting a gun other than a bb gun. (I hit the target a couple of times)

 Jason hit it more than me.

 Gun club rules.

We've been doing a LOT of shopping. It's actually been quite a bit of fun. I'm not usually a fan of shopping, unless it's for Evie, then it's the best, but I digress. We scored some insanely cute things. This picture is kind of blurry, but you can still see Evie's blue skinny jeans (Gap), and yellow striped shirt with a bow (also Gap).
We are staying an extra half a day than planned so we will get to take a couple more pictures and I'll post them later.
(Also, do you see these toys! Denny and Rita scored some amazing toys at garage sales for Evie to play with while here. We might even bring some back with us to share with our nursery (we'll just have to see if we have room in the car).

Fun toys

One of our friends made a gorgeous play kitchen, which has made me a little obsessed. I first wanted to make one myself, but I really wouldn't be able to pull it off. So I've been looking online for cute play kitchens. They are all decently expensive, but compared to some, they aren't that bad, and the reviews say they are "sturdy" and "hold up well." Anyways. Here are a couple of my favorites.

And while we're on the "play item" topic, here is another awesome find! Evie loves "helping" me with the laundry. She will put clothes in the washing machine, and move them to the basket. She also likes to try to clean out the dryer lint sheet (I catch her before she can start playing with the lint, the silly goose).

some pictures from my phone

Siblings before Janna left on her mission.



Evie found my pearls and had Jason put them on her.


It rained the other day and Evie really wanted to play outside. She got mad that I had to go upstairs to get her coat.


Evie playing with the car seat.



Had lunch at a friend's house with all the little girls.


We got to have our friend over this morning while her mom was singing. She so kindly asked me if she could use Evie's broom. Haha. We had a lot of fun!
