You go here, and you go here....


Stella just loves taking baths! She has these little toys she likes to play with everytime. Lately though her favorite thing to do is line them all up on the edge of the bath. She arranges them in an order and if you move one or take it out of it's place she gets upset and has to do it all over again. She just makes me laugh. :)

Glasses

So a couple months ago we took Stella to go see her doctor about her eye. Her right eye looked to be a little lazy causing her to sort of go crossed eye. I was in Denial for a while but finally put the big girl panties on and took her to see her pediatrition. He then referred us to see an Eye Doctor at Primary Childrens. We went in and waited around for a couple of hours and a couple of tests later told us that Stella will need glasses to correct her eye and her vision. WHAT??? My baby needs glasses?!? Ok, I knew how cute she was going to be but I was very worried that the glasses would make more difficult to do things and I didn't have a clue on how I was going to keep her glasses on her cute little face. Finally after searching around for the perfect pair, we found some ordered them and waited, and waited, and then waited some more. The pair that we picked had to be back ordered because of the color. So then they offered some tempoary ones that were the same frames but just different color. Her cute pink ones won't be in until this Friday. Well we have had them for one day and it's going pretty well. The first time she put them on she immediately took them off and threw them. When I then tempted her with an oreo she actually kept them on for about 5 t0 10 min. All day we have been playing put them on and thow them off game. I am hoping she will eventually get use to them and not hate them so much. She is soooo stinkin cute in them. Here are some pictures and brief video that I took of her in them.

Slides!!







Stella just has so much fun going down the slides. I can't resist taking pictures so here are just a few more of her enjoying being a kid.

Soccer

Alex has been playing on indoor soccer league this spring and every thursday they get together and play a friendly game together. Well the wives are invited to come and participate if they want. So Alex took me along. Now if you know really well you would know that I have never, ever played soccer in my life. I felt so silly and out of place. First the players out there mainly spoke portegues and spanish. I had no idea what anyone was saying. I played though. I didn't know what direction I was supposed to be going and I didn't know what to do with the ball if it actually came to me. It for sure started out rocky but it ended up not being so bad. I actually got the ball away from a couple of the players and kicked it and didn't miss. I don't know if I kicked it in the right direction but I was more worried about missing. It was a great way to excersize and Alex and I had a good time doing something together.

Tubing!!

I can't believe where the time goes!! It just seemed like yesterday that Rebecca, Jason and the kids were just here in Utah hanging out. Well in fact it has been 2 weeks since they were here. While they were here we were able to get together and head up the canyon to go snow tubing. It was such a beautiful day for it and there wasn't a cloud in sight. Everyone had such a good time. Here are just a few pictures of our day.
