Disney on Ice: Princess Wishes

Last Thursday, Eden and I went to see the Disney on Ice: Princess Wishes. We went to the Disney show last year and she loved it so I knew she would really LOVE this one because it was all about the Princesses. She could hardly wait for them to come out. She was disappointed when Tinkerbell came out first, she is not a huge fan of hers for some reason but then slowly over the whole show each princess came out one by one. She could hardly wait for Cinderella who was last. Cinderella and Belle are her two favorites and then Ariel and Snow White. She loved the whole show and tells people all about it, especially the fire and the fireworks. This was definitely a huge hit and she started to cry (like always) when it was over because she wanted to see it again=)



Eden's super excited, I can't wait for this to start face.




When they first started coming out. She was in AWE!



Aladdin and Jasmine



Snow White and her prince.

Belle and the Candlestick dancing with the silverware to "Be Our Guest".



Ariel and Eric



The dragon and it's fire from Sleeping Beauty.



Cinderella. Eden was thrilled when she came out in her carriage. Her face was priceless but it didn't show up on camera b/c it was to dark in the audience at the time.



All of them skating for the finale. It was a really good show and Eden had a wonderful time. I can't wait to take her again some day.

It's a........

GIRL!!!!


We went last Thursday afternoon right before leaving town to Baby Views after being told about it at Bunko. Michael and I decided to find out a little early so we could tell family in person over Easter and to ease some anxiety of mine over whether everything is good or not. Nobody knew we were going so it was a huge surprise. Eden announced it by telling everyone that she was going to have a baby sister which is what she has been saying all along so she got to say it a few times before people asked "Really???? For sure????". It was kind of funny to watch every one's expressions change while they figured it out. So glad we got to do it in person. Shea, the ultrasound tech, was amazing and went over everything thoroughly and told us EVERYTHING she was looking at and measuring. So thankful to God that everything looks great right now and baby girl is measuring a hair longer than what the books say, so maybe she will be tall like her sister. It is always so amazing to see them and watch them move and flip during the ultrasounds. I will have another one with my doctor sometime in May so that will be fun too. We got pictures and the whole ultrasound on DVD so we can watch her over and over again if we want to. I am so glad we did it when we did and now we can start planning for her and coming up with a name.



Profile of her with her arm and hand up by her mouth. She was sucking a lot.






Kicking her legs straight out. She got a good measurement of her 2 inch long legs.

Future Pro Golfer??

We found this little golf set for super cheap and Eden plays with it all the time. She loves going outside and showing us her skills. The bag came with a driver, putter, and pitching wedge clubs and three balls. She loves hitting the balls over and over again. She is getting pretty good with her eye hand coordination. She just needs reminders every once in a while to keep her eyes on the ball. She will need her daddy and J. Pops to give her some lessons some day to help keep her interest up. Every one in my family plays but me. Maybe I should take lessons with her=)



She looks so grown up pulling her golf bag.




Eden making contact with the golf ball.






Watching her ball go.




Her swing. She needs to work on her position to the ball.



The next pictures are just cute ones of Eden in a Sunday dress.

More Bubbles Please!

It's been a long time (probably over a year) since Eden took a bath in our big jetted tub so when she asked if she could the other day I said, "Sure". After we got everything together she stripped down and jumped in. She was so excited. Well she get even more excited when I brought out the bubble bath. She thought she was in heaven until I turned on the jets and made the bubbles go crazy=) She couldn't believe how many bubbles there where and LOVED THEM!! She played and played and played with all the bubbles.



Thank you mommy for all the bubbles.




Covered neck down in bubbles=) She thought being white all over was awesome.



Look at all my bubbles.




Holding her bath baby that you can't even see. She loved rinsing her off over and over again.

Bath Baby and....

I love babies and kids right after a bath or shower. They are so cute wet, smell so good, and look adorable wrapped up in their towels. The other day Eden was running around in her towel and was willing to let me get a few pictures for once. She looked so cute I couldn't help it.

Love this one!!!!



The other day Eden ran up to me holding this flower and asked for me to make her a tail. She wanted a tail so that is what she got. She was so funny trying to get her tail in the picture=)


Sticking her bottom out so we couldn't miss her tail. It was so funny.




Proof that she was just wearing her swimsuit around the house to play in. She would sneak off to her room to play and would end up changing clothes and putting on the swimsuits by herself. And those aren't always easy for me to put on with the criss cross backs and everything. She has no problem with it. She is our crazy, funny little girl=) LOVE HER!

Let the Water Fun Begin!

Saturday was so hot here, already 90 degrees, and Eden had been pleading for the pool for months now so we decided she could have some fun in the sprinkler. She was so excited! She has seriously been wearing swimsuits around the house for over a month now because she can't wait to get back in her pool=) She had a blast even though the water was FREEZING. Harley even joined in the fun.
The one picture of us pleading with her to look at the camera.

Running in the water.


Can you see that smile? She was in heaven.


Helping to give Harley some water. Lindsay was the sprinkler=)
Eden getting Harley to cool off;)



Dumping water on her head voluntarily over and over.



We stayed outside for hours and she even dried out before going in. We had such a good relaxing Saturday.

Outdoor Fun

The weather has been beautiful lately so we have been outside almost everyday. Last week it was really windy one day and we were out playing and Eden was riding her tricycle, train, and car all over the place and then we got out the kite. We got it up several times but the wind was just swirling so it was going crazy flying back and forth in all directions. It was pretty funny and Eden got tired of holding it when it was that crazy and went back to her riding toys. Eden likes to ride her toys like this: because our driveway has a very slight incline from the garage up to the sidewalk, she will start at the top by the sidewalk and pedal or push really hard and pick up speed and then pick her legs up and coast. Then she will do it over and over again. It's so fun to watch her and see how far she can get each time. She has wrecked a few times doing this if she can't keep the riding toys straight. Hopefully, that won't have any indication of the future driver she will be=)
Concentrating on pedaling really hard.



Love this model look from her. So funny!



Then the cheesy, squinty smile.



Coasting with those legs up.


You can barely see it under her hair that is blown across her face but she has the BIGGEST grin on her face. She was having the best time.



Eden flying her kite. Thanks Lydia for the birthday gift=)
