April 2015

April 1st, Abby got her first pedicure! She started off just sitting on Mom's lap while Sunny did Mom's toes, but we decided during the process that Abby deserved a little pampering too! Sunny is the best, he calls Abby "my princess", painted a flower on her toes without Mom's approval (haha),  and even gave her a hug when he was done. For the next few weeks after this, Abby would show everyone her painted toes and say "tank eww Sunny"!

Abby rules the house... and obviously we are still living on concrete floors.

Easter weekend, we hosted the Price family Easter party at our house. We started out with Grandma's easter egg hunt - the teenagers hid the eggs then helped the younger kids find them. Grandma Price makes it extra special by giving away prizes for every glitter egg that gets found!





General Conference fell on Easter weekend this year, so Easter morning was spent listening to it and finding the baskets that the Easter bunny filled :)

We got together with the Sherwood family on Sunday night, for another Easter egg hunt. It was fun for kids of all ages...

We went to a fun museum with the Hess family while they were in town. It's so fun for Abby to have Otto (pretty close in age) to play with!

Abby felt like wearing her panda costume one night for not reason. Hahaha!!


It was so fun to have Aunt Megan and her family in town... Abby sure did miss their company when they left back home to California.

Abby likes to follow Noah down to his room each night when he goes to bed. She adores her big brother!

We went to kids' club at Superstition Springs mall on Davis's birthday and also got to ride the carousel afterward. Abby knew she wanted to ride the bunny while we waited in line, and luckily nobody got it before her. By the way, she will bring up "easter bunny" out of nowhere all the time :)


We went to Davis's 2nd birthday party at Harmony Park and Ellie brought her scooter. Abby loved riding on it!

Shhhh... the princess is napping :)

No clothes except princess high heels, pushing her babies in the stroller!


I was pretty proud of this hair creation, considering Abby has thin hair that isn't very long!

BBQ and swimming fun with our neighbors, the Manutais and a few of the Watkins girls too :)

Abby found this sleeping mask and thought it was a headband.

 Helping Dad in the yard, in her jammies :)

We took the Teryx out to the desert one Saturday and had a great time together. The weather was perfect! Cold enough for sweatshirts in April!







Sometimes Abby wakes up in the night and we bring her to bed with us. She was basically on top of me so I took a picture of the nice "cuddle" she was giving me!

"2 Piggytails"!!

 When the piggytails come out... not so cute!

March 2015

March was a busy month... one day mom was feeling overwhelmed with a million things that needed to get done. She sat down with Abby to put her to sleep and planned to get things done during her nap time, but couldn't bring herself to get out from underneath her. Babies sleeping are the sweetest thing ever!

Lucy and Davis spent the night when their parents were moving out of their old house. The next morning, these 4 had breakfast in the backyard. They loved it!

Cute cousins in jammies :)

Our stake put on a "shindig" to celebrate 25 years as a stake. It was an awesome event. Every room inside the church was decorated and tents were set up outside with fun games for kids and dinner for the whole family.
 Mom had to sneak this picture of Sophie and Abby being so sweet together one day. They didn't know she was taking the picture as Sophie was kissing Abby's head.

Sweet sisters :)

In this picture, Abby was looking out the shutters at Grandma & Poppy's house, at Davis who was outside looking in. It was so cute! Davis kept yelling "ABBY!" and Abby was cracking up.


Abby got to have a few play dates with Kozie, her friend that lives across the street. These 2 are so funny together. Abby now asks for "Kozie's house" once in awhile, like she's big enough to knock on the door and ask "can you play?"



These girls, like all other kids their age, don't like to share toys. They want something only if the other one has it. Kozie held onto the high heels for a pretty long time and as soon as she let them go, Abby claimed them! You can tell by this picture that she wasn't about the let them go. Haha!!


Abby found this little spot in the flowerbed, that she thinks is "her spot". She'll gather up the things she needs, like her binky and blanket, and just go sit out there.


Mom put this hat on her (as a joke) when they were at Target one day. You'd think she would have ripped it off her head. Instead, she wouldn't let mom take it off and when she finally did, Abby cried for a long time, "gampa's hat". It must reminded her of Grandpa Price's cowboy hat!

Dad's glasses

We went out to eat at Blue Adobe Grill on Dad's birthday and Abby brought her high heels to be fancy! The tight shorts and high heels are hilarious.

We didn't do much this year during Spring Break, but Grandma Vicki did treat everyone to an afternoon at Peter Piper Pizza. It was the one day that Ellie and Noah's Spring Break overlapped Jax and Roxy's Spring Break.

Cutest little shopper. She loves Ellie's purse.

~Celebrating Aunt Auburn's birthday with lunch at Blue Lemon~

For several weeks leading up to Spring Break, mom promised Noah and Abby that they could have a slumber party in Noah's room during the break. Abby follows Noah down to his room every night and mom always takse her up the stairs screaming. She was so excited when mom told them both goodnight and left without her. The trundle was all ready for their sleepover! About 30 minutes later, Noah was texting mom from his room and telling her that Abby was too wild and she needed to come take her. Haha! She is such a night owl. The time stamp on this picture is 11:01pm.

Abby got to pet this lamb at the Easter pageant!

Look close to see the lounger on the chair!

We had our first lake outing at the end of March when the Westovers came to town. The water was too cold for the AZ residents but the Oregonians got in the water and swam around! Abby and Mom were just along for the ride. She liked to drive the boat with dad and just be cute.



This is Abby looking so cute in her Easter dress. Easter Sunday falls on General Conference Sunday this year so she got dressed up a week early!


We spotted the Easter Bunny at the mall and Abby was giddy. She was standing on her tiptoes to see the bunny. She wouldn't have been so giddy if we got too much closer!
