Easter Weekend

We had a fun Easter weekend full of all the things a 2 year old cares about.
We started on friday with an Easter activity at church wear Addi learned the joy of finding Easter eggs.
Then on Saturday we headed to Grammy Ann's aka Grammy ice cream cone (Jared's Aunt and uncles in NY). We ate lots of yummy food including ice cream.
Had fun with cousins (second cousins anyways).
Colored easter eggs. This was Addi's first time coloring eggs.

Another egg hunt. Now Addi is always wanting to find eggs, especially when she found that they can be filled with chocolate.
Addi also thinks that all eggs open and have candy in them. A couple days later she wanted eggs for breakfast but was disappointed to find out that didn't mean chocolate.
And of course the Easter bunny visited and left Addi a bucket full of treasures. Maybe not the true meaning of Easter but still lots of fun.

Someone Sweet is now 2!

Our little girl is now 2 years old I can't believe it. We had a little cupcake and 2 themed party for her yesterday.
Here our the invitations I made.
And my lovely table. I didn't do much decorating except for some balloons and the table center piece. We had some of Addi's favorite things to eat. Peanut butter and honey sandwiches, fruit, and cheese and crackers with apple juice to drink.
Do you like my cupcakes? I should have taken a picture of one bitten into so you could see that they are stripped purple, green and pink.
We had 15 little friends plus their families over. It was a house full, but I think they all had fun.
We had some crafts for them to do.
We had balloons to play with and bubbles to pop.
We sang Happy Birthday and Addi blew out her candles.
She had lots and lots of presents to open and her friends were more than eager to help.

We got Addi this Little Tykes car for her birthday she has been taking her animals for rides all day. We can't wait until it warms back up and we can take it out side.
Overall Addi had a great day she even woke up happy. It may have to do with the fact that there was balloons and presents waiting for her in the morning. Maybe we would have better days if we always had balloons at our house.

Happy St. Patricks Day

I decided I better blog before another month went by. Today was a grand day with the sun shining. Addi and I hadn't been out of the house in a week (except for Saturday) because we were sick. I started throwing up on Thursday. I thought it was just pregnancy sick even though it had been over 2 weeks since I had been throwing up, but it ended up being some stomach bug. I got dehydrated because I didn't drink because if I did I would vomit. This caused me to start having contractions. I was having about 8 an hour for 8 hours straight. I was freaking out thinking I was in labor. It was worse than my labor with Addi these contractions actually hurt. They finally went away at about 3 in the morning. It was confirmed it was a bug when Addi woke up Sunday morning throwing up and continued until Tuesday morning. No fun! Now the dog is throwing up, but that is because he ate something out of the garbage so I don't feel so bad. So instead of cleaning our disaster of a house (I did wash all the throw up stuff don't worry) we ventured out of the house. We went to story time dressed all in green and surprisingly only about half the kids were wearing green.
Then we came home and had a picnic outside it was so warm.
And we went for a little walk and saw some flowers already blooming and swang (is that a word?) on the swings. Then we came home and both took a 2 hour nap. As soon as Addi woke up she wanted to go back and swing so we did. I finally convinced her to come inside so we could make dinner for daddy. After dinner Jared had to go to the church for Faith and God (basically cub scout, they don't have cub scout here) So instead of staying home by ourselves Addi and I went to the church too. We went to the RS workout group and Addi had fun copying us it was really cute. So we hope you all had a grand St. Patrick's Day too and here's to no more throw up!

February Review

I can't believe it is already March. Since I haven't blogged since our trip I will do a little review of February in the Sorensen Family.

We started off the month with my birthday and we celebrated by having an ultrasound to see our little peanut. We decided not to find out if it is a boy or a girl so it is a surprise.
That night Jared took me to see the Lion King on stage it was pretty cool. I had been really sick leading up to my birthday and was afraid that we wouldn't be able to go, but the sickness took a little vacation for my birthday.
We made valentines and took the to daddy's work.
We made a cake just because mommy wanted some jello cake.
Addi decided to give herself a makeover when mommy was sick and thought she was playing nicely in her room.
Took a little horse ride.
Ate lots of cereal because mommy didn't cook.
Went for free pancakes on National pancake day. And worked on lots of sewing projects.
Wild Hearts dress
Bubble shirt and leggings
I Love Chocolate dress.

Utah

After California Addi and I spent a week at my mom's in Utah. I don't have very many pictures but we had fun playing with Celeste (the little girl my mom babysits), getting pedicures, eating frozen yogurt, crafting,crafting, and more crafts, and probably Addi's favorite seeing the fishes at Cabelas. We saw a bunch of other family including Grandma and Grandpa Duncan who drove up from St. George to play.
