Baby Animal Day

Baby Animal Day in Logan was so much fun this year. This was our first year going and we will be making it an annual tradition. I have always wanted to go- now that I have a kid I have an excuse to be there!

Adele got to pet this little cub!
She wasn't real sure about the little duckling
She love the baby chicks
And of course she loved the kitten!
The calf was much bigger than her, but it didn't seem to bother her
I loved the baby goats. Adele loved to let it suck on her fingers.

It really is such a neat experience to be allowed in the cages to hold and pet these sweet animals. I loved every minute- we had so much fun that I forgot sunscreen and we both ended up with a sunburn.

The Easter Bunny has arrived. . . .

Adele gave the easter bunny a french kiss

Why not make something good come from this crappy weather?
This is the mini-me version

Do you know the way to San Jose?

We went down to San Jose for Bobbie's wedding. While we were down there we made a quick trip over to San Francisco. We loved the street performers and the chowder!

We visited the Palace of Fine Arts. They had a great children's museum that all of us adults really enjoyed. This is a picture of Dallas "learning"

Yeah, we think we are funny

What a neat place. We had a great time together and enjoyed some great scenery. Wedding pics to come. . .

Scary day at Primary Children's

I woke up to Adele choking and gagging at 3:00 am- and she was barfing nonstop through the rest of the morning. At 8:00 am I called her pediatrician and they told me to take her right to Primary Children's. I was thinking this wasn't that big of a deal, but since she had thrown up so much and was acting a little delirious they were worried she was dehydrated. Of course this all happens when Ty is out camping with the scouts, so I packed her up and headed up to the hospital. The doctors first words to me are, "this could be as simple as a virus or she may have pressure on her brain and we may need to do a brain scan". What?! A brain scan- lets not throw that out there unless the procedure needs to be done. Anyway the doctor gave her Pedialyte, but that lasted about 2 mins. So they put a catheter in to check for a UTI. Adele just laid there and looked around during the whole process- not a peep! Next they put an IV in to get her electrolytes and fluid levels back up. This was so sad- she was really upset. After getting the IV in we had to wait an hour for the fluid to go in her system. Luckily she was sleepy so her and I snuggled in the hospital bed for the hour and then Ty arrived. They discharged us and told us to keep a close eye on her. They still aren't sure why she was so sick because she had no fever or any other symptoms. I am just glad she is a tough girl and is feeling much better.

I love that even though she is as sick as a dog, she still pulls a big cheeser for the camera!

I am not ready for mobility

Adele is really working on those first steps! She gets so excited before she takes the big leap toward me.

Share the love

I always thought that I was the cutesy creative one in the relationship, but Tyler seems to out do me every holiday. For Valentines Ty had a scavenger hunt all set up with funny poems at each stop. The first stop was a framed picture, the second was a heart rate monitor and the third was a jogging stroller. All of which I had asked for ( I gave him a few ideas not thinking I was getting all of them!) I am hoping for more good weather so I can put the stroller to use.
