Ava started her tot soccer league last Saturday. It was the cutest thing ever to watch! Her soccer team is co-ed 3 and 4 yr olds. But she is the youngest on the team and only 2 other girls and 7 little boys on the team. Ava loves all the extra attention and loves playing with the boys. Ava is super coordinated and keeps up great with the team. Tonight is the first competing game against the other teams. I can't wait to watch. The little kids are so funny to watch since none of them get the rules they just all chase the ball and aim for the net.
The coach is so sweet with the kids and they all love him. At the beginning of practice he asks how many of them know how to play soccer. It was do funny to watch the kids all look at each other not sure then one boy raised his hand and they all did after that. All us parents on the sidelines look at each other a laugh since we know none of out little tots know how to
Play the game. Little kids are so funny!
Below are some pics from practice and after I got her a yummy "ice cone" as she calls it. And she was fast asleep by the time we got home. I don't know why the pics are out of order. Oh well..

Easter
We had a great Easter this year. I would say one of my favorites even!
We took Ava to the mall to meet the Easter bunny
Below is Ava at our neighborhood egg hunt.mshe had so much fun with her little friends.
Here is the new easel I nought her. She is obsessed with it. One side is a white board and the other is a blackboard. She loves to write her name all over and practice all her alphabet.
Another one at the egg hunt.
Here us Miss A and her friend Lily right before the Cedar Hills egg hunt. It was pure craziness and she was so overwhelmed by all the crazy parents that she didn't even grab any eggs, so I grabbed her a couple.
Below is her in her cute new Easter dress from her Grandma Wadley.
And this is her before the city hunt. All these pics are out of order for some reason.
This was on Easter Sunday after church we gave he all her Easter goodies. She got lots of toys and candy.
Her are our adventures at the city hunt.
Her and her BFF Emery.
Enjoying all her candy from the hunt.

Bye Bye Bunny
So we have had our little bunny for a bit over a month. And it was fun while it lasted but it was only meant to be temporary. So we finally said goodbye to bunny FooFoo on Monday night. It was last minute I found out the lady was stopping by to pick it up. Ava was taking a nap and she didn't want to wake up when the lady got here. So when Ava woke up later on and realized the bunny was gone she was really upset.... And asked me with tears streaming down hr face, "oh no bunny gone... Where did bunny go?" so I told her......
"the bunny went to go live with Snow White in the enchanted forest..."
Then we watched The part of the movie where Snow White is singing with the white bunnies. I told her, " see there that's our happy bunny with her friends." Ava seemed to accept this. It made total since I mean who wouldn't want to live with Snow white? Right??
Ava would want to that's for sure.
When daddy got home from work she had to explain to daddy where bunny went and told him not to be sad since the bunny loves Snow White.
Now I just need to come up with a good story to get rid of her binkys..... any thoughts???

Ultrasound pics
These are the pics they sent home with us after the Ultrasound on Thursday. Since the tech was having issues with their new equipment he gave us free 3D images of our baby. It was amazing. I have only had the 2D ones before with Ava and so I was seriously blown away with how detailed the 3D/4D images of our baby. I mean look how cute she is. It shows her features, her little nose (just like Ava's) her lips... everything. It makes me even more anxious for her to get here and meet her face to face. I love you baby Londyn!

We are having a.......
GIRL!!! I am beyond excited. I think everyone expected me to want a boy this time since I already have a girl but I honestly wanted a girl. I mean don't misunderstand I would have been happy to have one of each but I prefer to have to little girls. Having Ava has been a dream come true for me she is my living doll. I love everything about having a little girl and so I just wanted another one. I guess cuz I am a girl I just understand them better I would be so lost with a boy. On a side note I think this will be our last baby. Yes, yes I only want 2 kids. I realize I live in Utah and am somehow expected to want 5 kids at least but thats just not me. We will more than have out hands full with 2 little girls running around.... Ooooo I love the sound of that
Twoooo little girls!
Anyway the ultrasound was yesterday and Russell and Ava came with me so we would all find out the gender as a
Family. We were in there for over a hour... It was only suppose to be 30 minutes but they had this new equipment and the tech guy didn't know how to use it.
Ya the tech stressed me out. He kept thinking something was wrong or whatever but the other tech would be like no its just the angle. So i am so happy we have a perfectly heathy little baby girl brewing in my belly. Even tho the guy tech told us it was a boy at first. In his defense baby was in a weird position and he was just guessing based on that.
Our baby was so active the whole time flipping and moving the tech had the hardest time getting all the measurements. And the baby did not want us to she what she was. She had her foot between her legs and was hugging my placenta. The tech kept shaking my belly to get her to move. She hated that. Finally a different tech came in and baby must have known cuz she was so cooperative with the lady tech. She knew what she was doing and told us it was a girl and was 100% sure.
So it's a girl and..... We picked a name
Londyn (London)
We are still deciding on a middle name
But right now I love Juliet for a middle name so...
Londyn Juliet Child
But it's not for sure or the spelling of the first name we may spell it London. Who knows?? I still have 5 months to figure it out. Little baby kicks ALL the time! And likes American Idol haha. Ya whenever Russ and I are watching it baby kicks up a storm. Funny baby.
Can't wait to meet our new little munchkin!

Pregnant brain
There is something about being pregnant that makes me so forgetful. There is real science behind this widely accepted idea.. Not that I know anything more than that about it. I
Don't know if it was the same with my first pregnancy.. Haha I can't remember. But this time it is pretty bad. I forget everything... I couldn't remember my age when a girl at work asked me, I always forget what I a, looking for when I walk into a room and today I was getting gas and started to drive off while it was still hooked to my car pumping gas! Seriously?! Yes I am losing it.
I start pumping gas, get back in the car, sit there for a few minutes wonder why I am still sitting there, turn on my car and start pulling out of the stall...... Then I here a POP. And I realized oh wait I wasn't done.... So I back up to assess the damage. At first i thought my car was gonna blow up or the pump. I had no idea. But when I picked up the hose it was still at attached to the pump and the screen was reading"thank you for your purchase" so it obviously figured out I was done. I was so embarrassed hope no one noticed and drove off. At least nothing broke. I think I am gonna have my husband fill the car with gas from now on.... Or at least until I make it to the Land of Oz to get me a brain from the wizard...

Happy birthday Ava
I can't believe I now have a 3 yr old! She is growing up so fast and she is so smart and funny. She goes to preschool and can write her name and count to 10 and knows her alphabet! I am so proud of her.
For her 3rd birthday party I had a million ideas but being pregnant I didn't have the energy or motivation to carry out any of them. So we decided to do a little friend party at Kangaroo Zoo, agin indoor bounce house place. It turned out perfect and Ava had the time of hr life. And I didn't have to stress myself over the party this year and that was pretty good too.

Baby #2
So i am officially announcing that we are expecting baby #2 on July 26!!!
Today I am 14 weeks along. This pregnancy has been so much different than the first time. I basically knew I was pregnant from the first day.. I have just been so in tune with everything this time around I took the preg test when I was a out 2 weeks along which was mid November and have been so so sick for the past 12 weeks. I am just starting to feel better over the past couple days. It has been so hard to keep this big news to myself. Hah I just wanted to shout it from the rooftops. I have started a another blog to track this pregnancy and I will link it up to here if anyone wants to see it. I want to remember how I feel and all the little details and pics of the growing belly along the way so I will document all that stuff on my other blog, oh and we find out in 5 weeks what we are having.
We are so thrilled to be having another little baby.
