Five Fact Friday

1. Sunday night we had a big dinner with family and cousins and aunts and uncles. We are absolutely loving having some of our extended family members so close. It's so fun to be able to connect with them and for Eli to have his cousins be his best friends. 

Bryan enjoying the fire with uncles, his brother, and his dad. 

2. I never get a good picture of these two when I ask them to pose, but i love the candid moments when Eli just gives Emma a love. 

3. Little Miss has decided food isn't so bad. She is always going after whatever I'm eating. So much so she almost crawls to my plate! She snatched this rice cake right out of my hands as soon as I got home from track practice! 

And she can't resist the box of tomatoes (that I need to can) sitting right by her. I'm always finding her gnawing on one. 

4. So grateful for a few days of sunshine. More to come next week too! 

5. This little cutie is so tricky. She's so so happy and smiley but feels awful. She wakes up every 30-60 minutes screaming in pain. She's a mystery. We've tried the elimination diet for nursing, reflux meds, and nothing seems to be helping. Any momma suggestions? 

Well happy Friday y'all! 

Five Fact Friday

(I've been trying to post this since Friday but it wouldn't upload. So hopefully it'll be a really late Friday on Monday ) 

1. This weekend we enjoyed watching general conference. Eli really listened and picked up on words they were saying. While he doesn't understand much yet I at least want him to understand who our prophet is, and think about the feeling we have in our home while watching the Prophet and Apostles of the Lord. 

2.we enjoyed a couple days of beautiful weather and got working outside. We seeded some areas of the yard that were bare and sparse and Bryan built Eli a dirt/digging box. 

Eli was also a good big brother and tested Emma's new swing out for her :)

3. Baby shoes!!!! Cutest 5$ ever spent. The end :)

4. After a month of trying bites of people food and some baby food, Emma is getting the hang of it! She doesn't love the sweet baby food but she is getting better! 

5. Today we are attending the sealing and marriage for Bryan's cousin. Eli and Emma will be staying with an aunt and uncle for a couple hours. We had dinner with them last night and Eli was loving feeding their chickens! 

Easter

We had a lovely quiet Easter at home. Sunday we went to church then had a yummy simple Easter dinner. We set up a quick egg hunt just for Eli ;) he loved it! 

As I get older the significance of Easter becomes much more important than candy or Easter baskets or dying eggs. But to a 3 year old, those things are still so fun. We tried to teach him about the crucifixion and resurrection. But those are some pretty deep words for a little guy. Fingers crossed some of it stuck :)
