Baby Shower

Some of my Mommyville friends :)

Annie and Krysten did such a great job on all the decorations!

I can't wait to hang them in Addie's room.

All the girls pitched in for the food and everything was amazing!

Wendy made a yummy cake.

The amazing diaper cake that I don't want to take apart.

Ayden's Second Birthday Party

We had Ayden's second birthday party the

Sunday before his birthday and boy was it an adventure.

Ayden loves animals so we got a petting zoo to come out to the park.

It would have been absolutely wonderful if there hadn't been 35 mi/hr winds.

We enjoyed the animals as long as we could

and then packed up and headed to the house for lunch and cake.

I made the cake and Ayden ate only the frosting :)

Then after nap we drove out to Pahrump to look at some puppies.

Of course one stole our heart and we brought him home for Ayden.

They absolutely love each other and even though it is a challenge to have a puppy

and a toddler together it is totally worth it.

His name is Buzz named after Ayden's favorite Disney character at the moment

and because it is one of the words Ayden says really well.

Overall it was a great second birthday!

Our trip to Ithaca NY

We went to Ithaca NY to celebrate the life of grandma Rachun.

We had two beautiful days and then lots of rain

but it didn't stop us from having a good time.

It was really fun seeing where Aric's step mom Liz grew up

and hearing all the wonderful stories about grandma Addie.

Our Ham

We went to the County Fair with our friends Annie and Atlas.Ayden was in love with all of the animals and when he mooed at the cow it mooed back!We had so much fun!! Ayden even rode a fair ride all by himself.
