Lincoln's Blessing

Lincoln's blessing day went so well! I decided to do it on a Sunday night, instead of during Sacrament Meeting. Mainly because I wanted to do that after party dinner at the church instead of my house. It worked out so much better there and I wasn't so stressed. 

Everyone was very supportive and came to this little guy's big day. Daniel gave a beautiful blessing! Afterwards we ate in the gym while the kids ran wild. It was fun to have everyone there, but we did miss Dave, Kathy and Kaylee a lot. We skyped Kathy and Dave afterwards so they could see Lincoln in his cute blessing outfit. I love my little dude!

Easter Pics

Since conference was on Easter Sunday, we didn't get to dress in our Easter outfits for church. So the next week, we took pictures in the beautiful orchards. I love living by these. So grateful for my little family!

My Birthday

Turning 26 is a pretty big deal ;) So I planned the whole day out around what I wanted to do. So first off we went to Waffle love and got a small and very expensive, but tasty waffle. Next we went to the zoo with my sister and her kids. This is the second time going to the zoo on my birthday. I guess I love it. I just love seeing my Lucy light up when she sees all the animals. Then that night, we went out to dinner. It was a wonderful birthday! Dan sure spoiled me with gifts. He got me teeth whitening, a massage, a shopping trip, jewelry and yummy treats. He's the best!

Easter

We always have quite the eventful Easter egg hunts leading up to Easter. First we started out with the Tervort Hunt. It was the first year ever that the adults did not participate in the hunt, because we had to plan it! We realized how much work went into this and we appreciate Dave and Kathy even more for doing this for us each year. Kathy still helped out even though she was gone. We sure missed them a lot! The kiddos had fun and Lucy did a great job getting a lot of eggs and candy. 

Our next hunt was our neighborhood Easter egg hunt. Our neighborhood is awesome for doing this each year. We all brought something to contribute for a yummy breakfast. Then after that we lined up in the field for the hunt. The kids 0-3 got to go first. I for sure thought Lucy would get a prize egg this year, because she had about 20 or more eggs in her basket, but she wasn't lucky this time. Bummer! There were some good prize baskets. She still had fun though.

Our last hunt, we had on Easter at my parents. By this time, Lucy was a pro and got a bunch of eggs and candy (score for Daniel and I, cuz we eat more of her candy than she does haha). It was nice of my parents to do one. It was also so nice to have Easter on Conference weekend. I love listening to our leaders of the church. Easter was very enjoyable this year and we are so grateful for a Savior who died for us so that we can return to live with our Heavenly Father again. We feel so blessed!

Lincoln @ One Month































My Sweet Little Guy is one month old. Wahoo! Isn't he a stud?

Some things about Lincoln at One Month old:
- He is a good eater and doesn't spit up much.
- He grunts a bunch. I just barely moved him into his crib at night so I sleep a lot better because I don't hear him grunting.
- He gets the hiccups a bunch. Poor kid. Hiccups are the worst.
- He takes a binkie and a bottle. Hallelujah! That's been so nice cuz Lucy didn't do either.
- He still has his hair. And he has beautiful olive skin which does break out a lot. He's starting to get cradle cap and acne. 
- He likes his carseat and always falls asleep in there. It is wonderful.
- He sure gets a lot of love from his sister. She loves to pet his head and his face. Then she pokes him and wipes her nose on him. Then gives him a kiss. It is painful, gross, but so sweet and cute.
- He weighs about 10 pounds. He is in some newborn clothes but they are getting a little tight. 0-3 is a little big. Mainly he just stays in his pjs all day. 
- He wakes up 2-3 times a night. Daniel takes a shift on the weekends which is nice. He's on a 3 hour routine. For this reason, I'm excited for him to get a little older. Sleep deprivation!

I love this little guy!
