April is a busy month for our family. We had my birthday on the 1st which was awesome.. thanks again for everyone's birthday wishes. Andy's on the 4th... which was also fun! We always have two separate events since neither of us want to share a cake :). Mostly do to the fact that Andy wants double fudge chocolate brownie turtle bliss cake and I ...... dont. This way however I can save some of my cake and eat it at his party so I don't miss out :)! Then we have Easter. This year easter fell on Andy's birthday. We had a good time watching conference and grandma's. In the morning we had a little egg hunt for Sydney and put cookies and marshmallows in her eggs... she loved the cookies and tasted the marshmallows and then immediately took them out of her mouth and stuck them on random items around the house! :) It was really cute. The nwe settled in for conference. I've always really enjoyed being able to sit and watch conference. After Sydney was first born it was easy because she was like a week old, however in October... I really felt like I missed out because she required so much attention. However, this time her nap fell right during the 2nd session each day and that was awesome!!!! Plus Andy and I each took a day to watch her during the morning session. I have to reiterate what Jen said, conference really helped me to reprioritize and make new goals for being a mom and family this year. There were soooo many talks about family and how we can improve our relationships. I can't even count the number of things I wrote down about how to improve in those areas. I'm really grateful for that and the challenge I have to be better. For those of you who don't know me very well... I LOVE TO SET GOALS... I love it even more when I feel like I can check one off my list. So here's to goals... and our being a better family :).
