catch up

Leila on the airplane (it sucks that we have to pay for her to fly now but it was nice not having to hold her the entire flight)
We went to Utah for Easter/Spring break, I wasn't very good about taking pictures. But I have a couple. Leila loved seeing all of her aunts and uncles, grandparents and cousins. We flew there which was so nice, Leila was a chatter box the whole flight she just kept talking and talking. On the Saturday before Easter we had and Easter party with Paul's family. Leila could hardly wait for the Easter egg hunt, she waited by the door just begging me to let her go out and start looking for eggs. Once out there she would grab and egg but instead of putting it in her basket she wanted to see what was inside first. We also dyed eggs, I will have to get the pictures from my mom because I didn't take any. Leila thought dying Easter eggs was pretty cool, she got really good at putting the egg in the dye carefully without it breaking or splashing dye everywhere. We spent Easter at both Paul's mom's house and at my parents house. We got tons of candy and Leila got several new outfits, swimsuit, sidewalk chalk, kite, two dolls, playdough and lots of little toys. We spent the rest of the break just hanging out with family and friends and doing a lot of relaxing. We also told both of our families that I was pregnant. In case you didn't see the last post, we are expecting a baby November 16th. I have felt pretty crappy but hopefully it will start to get better. Leila is excited to be a big sister although sometimes she says she wants to be a big brother, and I don't know if she completely understands because sometimes she tells me she has a baby in her tummy. When we got home Leila decided to move to her big girl bed, she started taking naps in it and then two days later decided to sleep in it at night. She is such a good sleeper and doesn't get out of the bed until we come and get her, it has been so nice we haven't had to fight her on staying in her room.
Shooting guns with our friends!

Stephanie, Kara, Me and Jenn

Spencer, Paul, Seth and Colin

We had so much fun with you guys and really miss you, we can't wait to see you this summer

We also went to the aquarium, it was fun but would have been better if it wasn't so crowded

I think one of Leila's favorite things about our trip was jumping on the tramp, if it wasn't so cold she could have spent all day on it
