Fun Times!!

I haven't posted in forever! Mainly because I am sooo exhausted STILL!! I thought it would get better but I think it's cause I am running around with Ava all the time! But It's good for me! The weather just started to get nice today! I am hoping it stays for a long time! We have done a few things lately! For memorial day, our friends Ryan and Shelley invited us to go with them up to this cute cottage looking house. It's in Roslyn a small little town! There was a film a while back called northern exposure and it was filmed at this house! It's decorated so cute with lots of vintage! We drove by this treehouse and we had to stop and play! Ava loved it! It looked straight out of Dr. Seuss Book! Tj is determined to build one in our backyard some day! A couple weekends ago we went up to Tj's cousins property in Whidbey Island! Ava had a blast she caught her first fish but didn't want to touch it! We went and caught crabs after and she probably caught 40 or so, she had no fear when it came to them she just would grab them with her fingers and pretty much squeeze them into her bucket! She had a blast!
Ava changes her mind about the baby everyday, somedays she is excited and other days she says "No, I don't want a baby" She is still determined it a boy! Ava is turning 3 next month, I can't believe it! Time has flown by! So sad how fast she is growing up!

The cute house we stayed in.

Upcoming Review CSN stores!

I was so excited when a representative from CSN stores contacted me and asked if I wanted to do a review for them. Of course, I said YES! I recently heard about CSN stores from some other blogs I read. If you have never heard of them, you DEFINITELY need to check it out! They have 200 + stores, and you can find everything from wall sconces to furniture; as well as baby items--and much, much more! You really can find just about anything you're looking for on their website, and it's very easy to navigate. I'm having a hard time choosing what to get since there is such a variety to select from (that's a good thing!). Stay tuned to see what I choose!

It's A.....

Ava's gonna be a big sister! Baby girl #2 is due September 23! I am 20 weeks! I'm still Very tired and was really nauseated the first trimester. Maybe it's having to take care of another child too thats wearing me out. Anyway were very excited! Gonna be a long summer :)

Rollerskating!

My friend Jen found this fun little rollerskating palce so we decided to take the girls. Ava was so excited at first. She couldn't stop talking about going skating. But after about 10 minutes she was done and decided she wanted to jump on the slide instead.

Easter Egg decorating

papas b-day/build a bear

I was so happy we were in town to celebrate my dads 62nd birthday! My dad is fighting for his life right now. He has stage 4 lung cancer but has the most positive and determined attitude ever! I admire him so much! He lives his life as if nothing is wrong. He still works 40 hours a week and a second side job at thanksgiving point some weekends. He is an amazing example to all of us and has helped us all stay strong. I am praying for miracle. I know they can happen and my dad definately deserves one.

Ava wanted to help papa open all his presents.

some of the cousins at the b-day party.

My sister was able to get us tickets to good things Utah one morning. I had never been to a live show. It was so fun and all the girls were super nice!

My dad surprised Ava and took her to build a bear. Everytime we pass it Ava wants to go in but I always change the subject I figured she was a little too young. She ended up loving every minute of it. We showed her every bear there was and she would not put this bunny down.

She even picked out all the accessories but I forgot to take a pic. Thanks Papa!
