Our library got all sorts of new toys for the kids to play with when we go. They had a blast
Went to Monkey Joes bounce house place. Evie hated it! She was so scared. Andrew loved it.
Evie likes to take selfies with mama, haha
Evie is crazy at the science museum now. She just wants to go where she wants and there is no stopping her, haha. She is quite the busy body!
Evie just wanted to carry Andrew's golf clubs around
Primary Easter activity. I had my first activity as president. It went really well. I had potato stamping, foam flowers/eggs/bunnies with stickers and glitter things for the kids to put on, coloring, straw flowers, and bunny hop races. The kids had a lot of fun. Andrew loved being there with all the kids. He ran and ran. He didn't quite get the point of the Easter egg hunt yet but had fun eating the candy. Evie was just really tired because she was up at 5 for the day. But she liked to see all the crazy kids too.
I found a new fun place called family central that loans out toys like a library! It's awesome! Got this fun barn and a couple other things. you can keep them for a couple weeks and then trade them in for other ones. Andrew loved the barn at first but after a few days it's old news, so good thing we didn't have to buy it!
Evie looks so adorable in her new little dress I had to do a little photo shoot. She moves so fast now it's hard to catch her! She is a trouble maker when we go for walks. If I put her down she automatically turns around and runs the other way. If I don't let her go where she wants she throws a big fit; she is so stubborn and assertive, but so cute while she is doing it.
Andrew loves his sticker book. i got it for church so hopefully it helps him sit still for a few minutes in sacrament meeting
Brandon still had the car for the last couple days so we have been walking all over. I took the kids to the beach today. Andrew really loves it now. It is awesome! He jumps and plays and throws things in the water and has so much fun. He didn't want to leave. Evie likes it for a little bit and then just wants to be held, but it' a big improvement! She just likes to eat seashells and pour water out of buckets.
Went walking on the beach one evening. It was so nice! Love the beach at night
Andrew loved being buried in the sand!
Brandon said the word "crap" and Andrew thought it was so fun to say, haha
Evie has been a big stinker this week. She decided she is done breast feeding. One day she just stopped and wouldn't take it again so I guess I don't have to worry about weaning her now; she did it all by herself. But now she also has now taken up screaming for 2+ hours in the middle of the night and I can't breastfeed her back to sleep. She won't let me feed her, snuggle her, or anything. She just screams. We had to put up the pop up crib in our closet so she has a place to scream without making the neighbors crazy. I remember we let Andrew cry a few times but he only ever cried for maybe 20 minutes at the most. I have no idea what her stopping point is. After 2 hours I give up and let her watch a show. This morning she woke up at 3am and would not go back to sleep so it was a very long day. I had to drink a big diet coke to make it through the day. I don't know what we are going to do with her! Hopefully she can figure out how to calm herself down.
Andrew just flaps and flaps his arms when the waves come in, haha
Daddy came home early for lunch one day and we got to go to Chili's
I took the kids to the Old Key Lime house for lunch one day; it is right by the park we go to so that was fun. They have a little play area so the kids can play while you eat.
Our kite!
Andrew flying his kite; he did pretty well
For the past couple of weeks Brandon has had to go way down south in fort lauderdale for his OBGYN rotation which is about an hour drive. So we haven't had the car for a couple of weeks and have been going a little crazy! haha. Evie has been still screaming at night. Those teeth can't come in fast enough! She has about 3 that have broken through the gums and I don't know when the others will come through. I'm still breast feeding her twice a night and it is killing me. She just screams until I feed her though so i'm hoping once the teeth are in I can stop doing that because it is way to exhausting. Andrew has been talking really well lately. He's starting to say for 3 word phrases; it awesome! He says, I did it, I got it, Andrew's turn, lets go, lets see, and a few more so that's a good improvement. Evie just says woof woof; we see a lot of dogs on our walks and she goes crazy saying woof woof, haha, it's pretty cute. It was windy one day so we got to go fly the kite; Andrew really liked that. Evie is tough now because she just heads straight for any dangerous thing she can find; so it was harder to fly it for too long with her trying to escape to the water or the stairs. But we had a good time. I got a new i-phone since my old one just stopped working so I have been testing out the camera; I really like it :) Roger and Bryce got to come visit us this weekend. Andrew has been loving having Bryce around. He will not leave him alone for more than a few seconds. Bryce is going to be exhausted! It's cute to see how much Andrew loves him :)
I also got a new calling as the Primary President again! Hopefully I can do a little better job this time around!
