April - Spring has sprung!

We are finally enjoying 70 - 80 degree weather and LOVING it!! A little bit of April........


Our 2nd Easter egg hunt with my mom's group...it finally warmed up enough to schedule it at the park.

Andiee and her friend Mikayla with their loot!

A day at the bird Aviary in Salt Lake with our friends Charlene, Durkes and baby Charlie


Andiee...checking out the flamingos


Super cute picture of Andiee and her buddy Durkes...could be a postcard picture...


Ooops...taken right after the previous photo...Daddy taught her early, don't let boys get too close - giving him the elbow! (=


Our sweet friends...Charlene and Durkes posing in front of our owl friend


Peeking out of Daddy's beanie



Watering all of mommies flowers...they got plenty of water this day! Maybe I should put her in charge of my house plants...maybe they would not have to withstand the droughts I put them through!(=







Andiee's new Easel...artist in training!(=


Double fistin' it



Stickers, markers, crayons, stamps, scissors, chalk...the whole works









Later found her forhead and arms as an additional canvas....something I haven't had to deal with before!!! ACK!!

Springtime!

It has been a bit since my last post...we have not done anything too exciting in the last couple of months besides being sick off and on. So, now that we are finally starting to get a bit of spring weather, we can't wait to start getting out more to enjoy it! Here is a few photos from Easter and early spring....



We had our first picnic in the park this year. Kyle decided to lay down and enjoy a little nap in the sun, and Andiee decided to join him!(=

On a little walk in the park and feeding the ducks.

We went over to dye Easter eggs with Andiee's friend Mikayla....

Ok, so i'm not a very good mom when it comes to messy things (maybe why Andiee doesn't like to get messy!?)...I think Andiee thought she didn't get enough control with the eggs and the dye, so she was done after the first egg or two, so I ended up dying the rest of them. I promise next year I will let her do it all by herself!!


We went to Discovery Gateway Children's museum with some good friends the other day...here is Andiee and her buddy Durkes playing in the water area (Andiee's very favorite thing of the whole place)


Easter egg hunt: Andiee had to open every single egg, tell us about what was in it, and place the contents in her basket before moving on to the next egg!




Sporting her new hat and adorable new Easter dress from her Gramma and Papa Smith!
