"tHe ScaRiEst PlAce oN EarTh"!!

{Yes the title for our little Disneyland trip is true...for Trae that is...Mp & I loved it! Since we missed out on both of our family trips this year to Disney World with MPs fam & then Mexico with mine due to little L joining our family we decided it would be fun if we joined our neighbors and went to Disneyland the first week of June.

We made our way to St. George..leaving Layla with my parents for 5 days (which was hard but kinda nice at the same time).We stayed in an amazing condo close to the parks, spent the next day & a half at DL & California Adventure, then the next two days loungin on the beaches of Huntington & Newport and then our last full day was back to the parks. We had such a good time...even though Trae hated most of it & you can see by alot of the pics below...but there were a few times that he loved it too! It was so nice of our friends to invite us, Trae just loves playing with his buddy Maddox. We decided next time we go back we will make sure our kids are old enough to love it.}

YaY!! i finally have a minute to update..things are crazy with two!ha

Layla turned 4 months at the end of May and it just aches my heart that she is getting so big.. literally she is getting big..she weighs just shy an ounce of 14 pounds which puts her in the 70th % tile and she is just barely over 25 inches long which puts her in the 90th % tile!

Layla is seriously such a good, happy baby! She loves to eat.... however she still spits up alot so we have started her on rice cereal (which she loves) and that has helped. She is also a champ at sleeping thru the night...sleeps from about 9pm-9am and waking up around 5 or to eat. Still naps throughout the day which is nice and a couple weeks ago she started rolling over. She is super wiggly and has discovered her voice so now she loves to baby talk and laugh. it's so cute! I feel very blessed to have this little angel in our lives. I love that she is happy & healthy! and seriously look at those cheeks..don't ya just want to eat her up!

{every time I try taking pics of Layla, Trae comes running in for "mine turn mommy!" ha. funny boy! He will be 3 in a month from today! Can you believe it?!Love him too ...such a stud.}

{Last Saturday I participated once again in the Ogden Spring off Run which my work sponsors every year. But this year instead of doing the usual 5k a bunch of us signed up to the the half marathon. My work also shuttled us up to where the half started in a stretch Hummer limo and that night they had a dinner for all those that ran. I love the people I work for and with! I have the best job in the world!!

I have never been a fan of running but I thought this would be a great challenge & fun experience. I started training when Layla was 5 weeks. It has been alot of fun and I can now say I LOVE running, however I'm not fast but my goal was to not stop and that I did. Thanks to my friends & hubby for the support! It was so much fun..I loved every second of it. It turned out to be a beautiful day, perfect running weather! In fact I will be doing more in the future!}

{MP turned the big "28" last Friday (April 29)..we celebrated his day with our friends & neighbors (Cori & Pete)... Mp and Pete have the same birthday & both served their missions in Brazil. So went went with them to the Gateway to eat at the Brazilian restaurant Tucano's. The boys were sang to & got to stand up & dance..so fun. We ate way too much but it was YuMMY!!! Then we shopped around for a bit. It was such a fun night. But the parting didn't stop there... Cori & I planned a surprise birthday party Saturday night at their house. It was softball themed since they both like to play. Thanks to our friends & neighbors that came to party with us!

Happy Birthday Michael Paul! Hope you had a fun week of celebration...can't wait till next year...Golden Birthday!!}
