Stella and Andy's Wedding

My godmother got married on April 9th and I was so honored when she asked me to be the flowergirl!!! I got a beautiful white dress, and cute headband with a bow, and I even wore tights for the very first time. Mom and I spent the week in North Dakota before the wedding and it was so much fun catching up with family and friends. We met Grandma for lunch one day, the next day we met Tara and Stella, the next day we met Stella and Beth, and let's just say by the end of the week I was pretty comfortable with anyone and everyone. These pictures are from the rehearsal- don't worry I didn't have my tongue hanging out when Chase pulled me up the aisle!!!Stella and her Dad. Stella was hilarious as usual and she wasn't at all nervous. Stella's Dad told me he has some stories to tell me when I get bigger about my Mommy. Mommy says don't believe a word he says. hmmmmm......

Stella and Andy's Wedding Day
Well here I am in the wagon again and I really think I need one of these things when we get back to Illinois!!! I smiled really nice for all the pictures and just look at Stella, she was the most beautiful bride I've ever seen!!!Sammy and I became great friends; she pulled me around before the wedding and I felt like a little princess.

Here's the whole wedding party. I felt so honored that Stella and Andy wanted me to be in their wedding. At the reception with the newlyweds. I didn't mind wearing the tights but, Mommy put my pjs on before I rode home with Grandpa. Gram and I were both feeling pretty tired so, we left around 8 and let Mom and Dad stay out with Uncle Danny for the dance. Everyone had such a great time and it was a beautiful wedding. Congratulations to Andy and Stella Zavoral!!!

Uncle Danny stayed at Grandma and Grandpa's until Sunday too!Aunt Allison even helped me work on my blog. Thanks for letting me use your computer to update my followers Ali!

Happy Easter!!!

My first Easter was awesome!!! My Great-grandma Lottie, Grandma Connie, Allison, Danny, and Laura came to celebrate with us and it was so much fun having company stay at our house!! We also had a big surprise for everyone when they arrive; Mommy is carrying my little brother or sister is her belly!!! Can you believe it?! Daddy says I'll be a great big sis because I have such a sweet heart. Here is the picture we gave to family to annouce the pregnancy. Mommy's due October 13th and we are very excited. I can't wait to have a roomate!

Daddy joined the Church so we all got to celebrate with cake....well, I stuck to my usual breastmilk.

It was so good to see Danny and Laura.Happy Easter everyone!! This is what Mom and Dad gave me: a pair of pjs, a ball, pacis, and a ceramic bunny basket. WHAT?! There's more! Danny and Laura brought the huge basket full of stuff and Great-gram gave me the big stuffed bunny. How do I look in my shades?More gifts from Danny and Laura!

After a great breakfast Daddy made, we all hopped in the van Grandma had rented and headed for North Dakota. Well, Dad had to stay behind and work all week so it was hard to say goodbye to him. I knew I would miss him a ton but he came to Grandma's and joined us on Thursday. Afterall, Stella's wedding was that Friday and I had a big job to do!!!

We're On The Move!!!!

March was a busy month for my family; we moved into our new house and rushed to get settled before family came for Easter. Another very special event was the debut of my two bottom teeth on March 17!!! We had been waiting for them to break through for a while and boy do I look distinguished with those two bottom chompers!!!

It was a very exciting, exhausting, and fun time for us and we feel so blessed to have such a suitable home for our family. Before we moved my friend Sylvia gave me a HUGE Easter basket full of goodies; she is a great friend and I miss her dearly now that I don't see her every day.
I was ready for my nap when Mommy was taking these pictures but, those plastic eggs are a blast to play with and I even got to put some in the bath and play with them during bathtime
This plastic cow is one of my favorite toys!!!

This was the last time we did laundry at the apartment- I will not miss riding in that tote over to the laundry room. Farewell coin laundry!!!
Whoa! Crazy hair!!!
This was the day my two chompers arrived, I'm a little timid when it comes to showing them off..
If you look very very closely you can see them!!!




Closing DayThis was the day we closed on our house!! Dad put the table and chairs together and we ate dinner there for the first time!! I had sweet potatoes and Mom and Dad had pizza- sounds fair to me- I love sweet potatoes!!!
I wasn't too sure what to think of the house at first- Mom noticed I was a bit uneasy when I was in a room alone so, she let me stick to her like glue!!!

Here, I'm helping Dad hang curtain rods. Looks great Dad!!Some "Norah-proofing" also took place at our house; all the doorstop covers were superglued after Mom caught me doing this in my room.
