New Family Pictures

This past Monday we were able to have our family pictures done but one of my favorite local photographers, Bryant Livingston. We, or should I say I, was so excited! So when it was raining outside we were a little bummed, especially since we had already had to reschedule once due to the crazy weather. But after talking to Bryant we decided to wait and let it clear, and we are so glad we did. I love the pictures we got, and even though Hallie was having a rough time he was able ot get some gems of her. I'm so glad we did it.

So behind...

Okay, I know I am ridiculously behind...like clear back to Valentine's day behind. But unfortunately that won't be changing for a couple more weeks. I've been SUPER busy getting ready for a craft show that was on Easter weekend, and now I'm working on getting ready for a HUGE show this week. So we are still alive, and doing well...just very, very busy. :)

Jimmer Fredette, Nothing but Net!

In honor of Jimmer Fredette winning the AP Player of the Year, and the Naismith Award, we thought that we would share this little gem...

12 of 12 - March

Yes, yes, I am very slow! But I didn't forget to take pictures, I just forgot to post them. :)

But here is our March 12, 2011

1-Hallie came and climbed in bed with us, with some books, and asked for bread and milk for breakfast. I'm not sure why but that is Hallie's favorite breakfast right now. Really nutritious I know.

---

2-She had that for a pre-breakfast snack, then we all had Life cereal for breakfast. Another favorite around here.

---

3-Since it was a Saturday, Eric was home. So Hallie and Eric watch Hercules on a blanket on the floor, and Hallie was thrilled about it.

---

4-Hallie wore her dress-ups, like every other day. She would live in them if I would let her.

---

5-On Saturday's our Barnes and Noble store does story time with treats, so if we can, we like to go. There is never very many people, I think this day, we were one of two families there. So Hallie helped herself to multiple cookies. :)

---

6- I made some headbands for a friend

---

7-Eric worked on homework, really exciting I know.

---

8-I worked on my etsy site, and got a lot of new stuff up

---

9-These last few pictures were all done while Hallie was supposed to be napping. This is how Hallie takes a nap. She sits up, trying to keep herself awake as long as possible, then she will fall asleep. I'm afraid she is working on giving up her nap. :/

---

10-I forgot to pick up so shaving cream for me at the store. But a friend of mine told me she just uses conditioner, so I gave it a try. I was quite surprised how well it worked.

---

11-While we were being productive in other ways, our clean laundry sat in the laundry basket unfolded...unfortunately this is all too common at our house.

---

12-Then right before bed we changed all the clocks in the house. I hate daylight savings, I never used to mind it before we had Hallie, but now it is just hard for everyone.

Midway Ice Castles

2.12.2011

Back in February we went up to Midway and saw the Ice Castles. They were really cool, and definitely worth the trip! If you are ever in the area when it is going on definitely stop by.

Hallie loved feeling the icicles drip

It wasn't a very warm experience, it's like walking into a freezer, but it was still really neat to be able to go.

Gymnastics Meet

2.11.2011
One perk of Eric's job is that we can get into most any event at the fieldhouse for free. So we thought we'd take in a gymnastics meet. Again we went really late because of a grounchy Missy Mae, but she had fun once we got there. It was fun to see the gymnastics team compete.

Hallie got pretty silly by the end. :)

Here she is dancing...I'd rotate it but I don't know how to :)

A Night at the Ballet

2.10.2011
One day we were sitting at home and my brother-in-law called me and asked if we had plans that night, and if we wanted some ticket to see Cinderella at BYU. We of course said yes, and they even took Hallie for the night. So it was a great date for us, and something we don't get to do very often.

Hallie had fun too, she got to go see a star show at the planetarium and go play at Stacie and Cole's house, and see the "doggies," aka the hampsters.

So thank you Negus Fam! It was great!
