Happy Birthday to the coolest kid I know!

Happy birthday Ethan!!!

1 year ago I was pretty worried about having another kid because it had been me and Cambria for so long and we have a lot of fun together. But Ethan has  increased the amount of fun we have by so much. Every time he smiles it melts my heart and he makes me so happy. 

Me and Ethan were at Barnes and Noble last week and it was really crowded. I was holding Ethan and accidentally cut in front of someone in line and when I realized it I apologized but she was still a little upset about it. Ethan began playing peek-a-boo with her and immediately had her and everyone around us laughing.

Fun facts about Ethan:

-we can't go anywhere without someone commenting on his hair

-he has been in the Atlantic and Pacific ocean

-has 10 teeth

-favorite foods are meatballs, blueberries and raspberries

-says about 4 words but I'm the only one who can understand them

-has had pink eye twice but other than that has been healthy

-loves to be upside down

-loves to give kisses to Cambria

crawling

We went on vacation to Arizona 2 weeks ago and stayed the night in Las Vegas. Ethan began crawling for the first time on what possibly might be the dirtiest floor ever at The Hard Rock Hotel. Now he is crawling all over and has started pulling himself up.

Trips

Skyler was working in Virginia the last week of May so we flew out so we could spend Memorial Day weekend in DC. We had fun seeing the sights/museums, swimming, running a race and seeing old mission spots.












It started raining on us so hard! It was awesome!












National Harbor
















Last week Skyler and I went to Las Vegas to celebrate our anniversary. We were only gone 28 hours but it was relaxing! We sat by the pool, saw a Cirque du Soleil show, ate amazing food, drove around in an awesome car and did a little gambling. :)
















All our photos are great because we just use our phones.

26 years

Ice cream cake from Coldstone

Monday was my birthday and I turned 26! 

The only thing better than getting one Tiffany box is getting two!

My grandpa died last week and his funeral was held Monday morning. It made for an interesting birthday but I was able to spend it with a lot of family and the day ended up being really nice.

photo overload

A bunch of pictures of what we have been doing lately.
And yes, I am awesome and own roller blades!

Shamrock Half

A few weeks ago I set the goal of running this race. I wanted to do this one because it was right in my neighborhood so I knew the course well. Even though there were a lot of hills and the wind was pretty bad I had a good time and am really happy I did it. I was also happy that I had a lot of cheerleaders along the way!
I was 59/189 overall and fourth in my age group.










Cambria wore my medal all day.

California trip

Last week we went to California on kind of a last minute trip. Skyler had the week off and we wanted to do something fun so we went to the beach and Disneyland/ California Adventure.









It was a little cold at the beach but that did not stop us! Cambria had a lot of fun playing in the sand.


We thought the inside of our hotel was pretty cool. Complete with a koi pond, turtles, and a lion that roared every hour.









As with most vacations it seems all we did was eat. The highlight of the trip for me was eating at Ariel's Grotto. The food and atmosphere were awesome and all the princesses came to our table to say hi to Cambria.














She is one spoiled little girl!
