Ireland's photography session! so fun!

So today was a good day. we had a family birthday party to celebrate 5 of us who had birthdays in april! so we ate, had presents, cake, and good laughs. Ireland is such a good baby! the entire time, she just sat on the floor playing with her toys and books. she plays well alone, and we discovered her interest in ceiling fans, so funny! Anyway, we got home, and daniel wanted to play with his new camera and took a ton of pictures of the baby! we picked out our favorites and I want to share some!!!



AHHH! I wanna eat her!!

just learning her colors

learning to use her feet better

Ireland, what's so funny??

actually, this is an older pic. poor girl was losing her hair! Also, she could not reach at the time, so I had to put blankets under her. ha ha. now she reaches though.

Ireland never wanted to help, she wanted to eat!

Ireland got the spoon and while eating it, got it everywhere!



"maybe if I just pick up the bowl....."



"ok, mommy is not watching!"



I asked her: Ireland, did you eat this batter? she just sat there. So i asked, then who did? she got the hugest grin and said " DA DA DA DA!" priceless

the last two days

Ireland in her car seat



getting ready to go bye bye, she has a cold (i think is what it is) and was so sad. :(



on daddy's shoulders. He was trying to cheer her up

mandi's birthday! april 14th

misty and her kids took me to lunch. here are the kids taking time for some pictures



these are the gift bags from the presents from mekell and megan and matt. I loved the bags, one played a song from the little mermaid. the bags were packed literally to the top. not sure why they spoil me, but I am not complaining. :)



Ireland loved playing with the tissue from my bags. I know all babies do it, but it was still fun to watch



so, it's tradition, I get cake frosting smeared on my face every year. the thing that makes me mad is, I ALWAYS FORGET. lol. oh I forgot to put up the pics of daniel's decorations he put up for me, good job, thanks honey.
it was an awesome day! best birthday ever.... so far! thanks to my friends and family, who called and texted and came to see me, from start to finish I laughed so much and got to be silly and enjoy the whole day!

I have already used most these pics but thought they were cute

Fun at the Utah Bees baseball game!

Me, trying to bundle her up! It was SO cold!



My mom and ireland



megan and mekell sharing blankets to keep warm!



Daniel eating ice-cream for some reason. he was so cold after! :)

Look how our baby has grown! 6 months old already! wow

she was so yellow from jaundice! daniel and I never saw it until looking back


her clothes were huge! she was wearing preemie. this is when she was 3 days old



this was her first time ever going to church



her being cute as always!



this is her showing off her pretty blue eyes, which she obviously got from her dada.

Daniel's birthday! april 6th

like my attempts at decorating??? He would not go to bed, so by the time I tried to decorate, i was so tired!!! oh well, it was fun!

Ireland's first trip to the zoo!

actually...

So yesterday I had been told my consultation with the dentist was the 28th, they actually changed it to... TODAY!! so I went. It was so great to hear the plans and get all pumped and so excited!! So friday the 11th I go in at noon for renovation. LOL well seriously I will get work done. It will take 3 weeks then I will have a pretty smile. FINALLY! I waited 24 years I suppose I could manage to wait a week. maybe lol. awesome.

today is a happy day!

So today is a great day! I woke up to a great phone call telling me I won this new teeth/mouth makeover from this radio station here in salt lake! I submitted my photos of my teeth and just waited, Anyway for some reason or another they chose me! Ah! I have had my dream come true. I do not care at all how nerdy or cheesy it sounds! I have always had horrible, horrible teeth and honestly never thought I would win. I went down to the radio station, and filled out paperwork, signed releases. The whole time they were taking pictures for the website and having me record a bit to play on the radio. It is so surreal! I have my first consultation on April 28th. man, me saying I am excited does not even begin to describe it! yay!!!
