How does this happen?!

Here it is, almost April and I've done it again...totally slacked off! I haven't posted a thing since December. I'm going to start with March and work my way back to January...here goes!

MARCH really has been slightly uneventful. We did move...again...hopefully for the last time! My parents bought a new house so we moved into their old house. We are so happy to be back in Mount Vernon. The move has cut tons of time off of Matt's commute and is just minutes from my work. Once we get totally settled and organized I will put some pictures up! Lydia is now four months away from turning 3! Holy smokes! It really hit me just yesterday when we were at her cousin Ava's 3rd Birthday party. Lydia just loves Ava to pieces. They are so cute...they hold hands and give smooches and play really well together. Our Niece, Maya turned 1...can't believe how quickly that went! She is the sweetest, silliest little girl. Happy Birthday Maya Lu...we love you! Another niece, Mallory turned 4! She was just 16 months old when Lydia was born and she is such a sweet little girl. Lydia really looks up to her big cousins Maci & Mallory! We love you 3M's!!!






FEBRUARY...Busy month! We started out the month with a family trip to Ocean Shores. We had a nice, relaxing weekend. We had a little birthday celebration for Matt(he was a party pooper and didn't want anything big). Matt's mom also had a very nice dinner at their house to celebrate. We celebrated his Birthday the right way later in month with a trip to Vegas. We also welcomed a new cousin into the family...Amelia was born February 2!






JANUARY...Started out with family friends at Joel & Angela's. We had a great time visiting, playing cards and this was actually the first time Matt and I got to spend New Years together...he's always worked nights and NYE was mandatory...so that was fun for us! Matt's wonderful parents took us down to Tacoma to the Pt. Defiance zoo to see the Christmas lights. That was so cool! I had never been before and will definitely go again. I got to go down to San Diego for friends wedding. That was a lot of fun! I was child-less and husband-less...that was the first time ever! It was a busy weekend, helping Jen with last minute details, doing a couple cuts and colors the night before, then hair and makeup the day of. She was a beautiful bride and the ceremony/reception were amazing.










There you have it! 3 months in a nut shell! Lydia is her same old silly self. Saying the funniest things and constantly making us laugh. She is a loving, singing, tantrum throwing, smart, beautiful and strong willed little girl and I thank God everyday for giving her to me...I must have done something right in the world to be given such an amazing gift!
