(This photo is mostly for Aunt Kyla and her love of 'staches)!

I'm so behind in my blogging! I blame it fully on this lame morning sickness. This pregnancy keeps faking me out...I have a few days where there is a glimmer of hope that I'm coming out of the worst of it, then the next day the toilet is (yet again) my closest friend. Aahh, the joys of my pregnancies. :) Despite feeling so yucky we have tried to still do as many fun family things as possible.
The first thing on our list was the awesome Princess Party my sister and the dance team she coaches throw. It was so cute and the girls had so much fun!

They had a lot of the "real" princesses there along with Tink (whose pixie dust is still stuck in Banana's hair), Fairy Godmother, a few princes and some yummy desserts! Banana thought she was in heaven. Em wanted nothing to do with the real princesses, but loved the cardboard cut-outs! Thanks to my super talented sis for putting together such a fun event!
We FINALLY had a decent snowstorm, so the girls were able to build a snowman. This winter has been lame-0 has far as snow goes. Here is the finished product!
Unfortunately he was pretty much melted by the end of the day. :(

For Banana's bday we gave her tickets to Disney on Ice and it did not disappoint. It was so much fun to watch the girls' faces each time a new character came out. And they thought our nose-bleed seats were perfect because they could see the whole ice rink!
Em has kept these ears on for the last few days and will only respond when we call her Mickey. Too cute.
To top off our fun few weeks we went to St. George with my sis and her family. Her generous friends own a vacation house that they let us use for a few days! We were able to go see Nana and Grandpa in Enterprise.
Banana and Em are in LOVE with them and did not want to leave. Nana spoiled them with their own My Little Pony's, lots of snacks, and even let them play with all of her stuffed animals! It was really nice to visit with them and hear some of the Terry family history stories.
We also stopped at the memorial for the Mountain Meadows Massacre. It was a pretty hike and fun to learn a little more about the event.

St. George has a few fun splash pads, and this fun faux river that we went back twice to play in. The first time we weren't so prepared so the girls got to play in their undies. :) We came back the next day in swimsuits and I didn't feel like such a bad mom!


The biggest event this weekend? Banana lost her first tooth!! It was a little traumatic for everyone because we didn't even know it was loose so we never prepared her for what was going to happen....Everything worked out though, and the tooth fairy left her a nice surprise. :)

She can't be old enough to lose a tooth! That is so crazy! But also so cute!
