Long Blog Hiatus - St. Patrick's Day, Easter, & Spending Time Before Baby Comes

I don't know why I am so awful at writing in my blog. I want to, I always think I should, but it just seems to take up a lot of time. I didn't write about my pregnancy, I didn't write about basically anything these past 4 months. Such a failure on my part. But I will catch up, and probably not write again for a couple months, then catch up and so on. :) Apparently it is just my nature.

Ivy was and still is OBSESSED with Anna, Elsa & Frozen. She can belt out "Let it go" and "Love is an open door" like nobody's business.
The time I took Ivy to the park with Olive and Ivy spent the whole time RUNNING AWAY FROM ME. Now, she always says "Run away at park!"

My coolest chica!
Da and Papa got a swingset in their backyard and Ivy loves it!
Trying to capture Ivy's curls. I hope her hair is always like this!
Ivy LOVES to play dress-up, even to the park. Sliding and swinging in her purple Anna/Elsa dress.

Ivy has stopped napping lately and it is driving me crazy. Sometimes I try to drive around for her to fall asleep and end up getting some comfort food.

Easter 2016 - We took Ivy on the Heber Valley Easter Bunny train ride. It was kind of bizarre. There were three bunnies dancing to Taylor Swift, and Ivy was terrified! She would cry and say "NO BUNNY" every time they would pass.

She was SO SCARED of those bunnies.


The Crew






Even though she HATED the bunnies, she always says "Mom, go on choochoo with bunnies again?"

In March, we stayed overnight in Heber with Jason's family with no kiddos, just adults. So fun to have some without kiddos for the night.
We saw the BIGGEST herd of deer. There were probably about 25. Right as I took the pic, a truck past and I dropped my phone. This pic was taken on the way down.
Dinner in Park City


Stayed over at the beautiful Homestead Resort in Heber
Breakfast in Heber. I promise I don't just have a food baby, there is a real baby in there too.


Easter Egg hunt at Da's was a success, even though it started SNOWING!


She loved finding the eggs!

The Easter bunny came and brought some cute stuff for Ivy

When I won free eyelash extensions on instagram!

Going to the capital to see the beautiful blossoms.







When Ivy, Grandma Myra, Jenn, Crewy & Parky went to the zoo. We were trying to walk around and get baby Jack to come. Ivy loved the zoo so much. Her favorite animal was the Peacock.



On the merry go round.










Hello HUGE baby bump.

When Ivy was sick one night and would only sleep if she slept with us. I caught this pic of these cute twinners.



Our walk on lagoon lane, trying to get Jack to make his debut.



Spending as much one-on-one time with Ivy as possible.
