Showing great grandma Layton around her garden
The girls had so much fun playing together, they didn't miss a beat during their first 6 weeks apart.
She loved to swing around those rhubarb leaves, I don't blame her they are as big as she is!

Easter
This Easter Ariah really enjoyed. She really got the concept of CANDY. She did a great job hunting eggs and loved her new toys.
She was even nice enough to share her goods with her dad.
We went to a little hunt put on by our new ward. Ariah's first outdoor hunt. She was not sure what she was suppose to do at first but she soon developed a system. Find egg, open egg, eat candy, repeat. For days after Easter she would wake up each morning and the first thing she would ask for is treats. She still does it every once in a while.

Ariah-ism #10
We were eating a snack in our fort. My stomach was gurgling really loud.
Me: "my tummy is talking"
Ariah: "mama's baby talking!"
She was so excited she just kept saying it over and over. She came right up to my face and squatted down and tooted twice.
Me: "What was that?!"
Ariah lifts up her shirt "My baby talking too!!"
Me: "my tummy is talking"
Ariah: "mama's baby talking!"

Ariah-isms #8 & 9
#8. We had some Taco bell and her burrito had that orange spanish rice. Half a burrito later she declares "mom Mac and Cheese in it!"
#9. We happened to be at Chick-fil-a the night the big cow mascot was there. Ariah was so excited to meet him she yelled across the restaurant to get his attention... "HI SHEEP!"

Ariah-isms
Today she was "helping" me get ready in the bathroom as usual. I told her to be careful because my flat iron had been on so it could still be hot. She blows on it a few breaths then goes "there go mama, s'not hot" Thanks babe!
We have a manual transmission in our car. Each time I drove today she would happily say "VROOM ma ma" between every shift.
She thinks it is the end of the world if she cannot go with me into the bathroom to go potty. I tell her I am going upstairs to go potty and she will race me to the top of the stairs so she can lift the lid to the toilet for me. "there go ma ma"
We are trying to teach her her first and last name. We ask her what is your name? She replies "Rijah" Well whats your big name? "Rijah" Say Ariah Stone "Rijah Stone (points to self) right dere"
She likes to console the characters on TV. In Tangled the characters get trapped and Rapunzel starts to cry. Ariah lovingly caresses her face on the TV and says "s'okay Tangled"
She has this obsession of kissing all her owies no matter how old they are and scabbed she will contort to kiss her owies. My favorite one to see her try to kiss better is on her shins, I think I just wish I could bend like that.

Just doing our thing
We have been having some fun days and some boring days lately. Ariah is just learning and growing so fast is it crazy. She can watch movies and understand parts of the plot. He favorite movie has been Tangled. She loves to dance when they dance in the movie and will excitedly yell out when she spots her favorite characters. She counted to ten all by herself today while she was eating her goldfish. I had a very proud mommy moment. She has started to have the two year old attitude but she does well to go on time out and say sorry. She has missed all her friends and family and every time the UPS man comes to the door she runs to see who it is. Big let down when I open the door and its not someone she knows. She has had some fun times hanging out with me and aunt Kamber but I know the void in her life will be filled when her little sister comes. She loves kids. Whenever we go to the store she will yell "Hi kids!" or "Girls, mommy!" or "Hi friends" She will be so happy to have a little buddy to hang around all day.
It was warm enough for us to adorn our "flops" yesterday.
Ariah loves to "paint" the rocks. I just give her a little cup of water and some brushes and she goes to town getting everything wet.
"Airplane up there"
20 weeks for me. This little baby can't seem to come fast enough. I am so baby hungry! She has really turned into a wiggle worm the last few weeks. I put Ariah's hand on my tummy and the baby kicked her. Ariah pulled her had off me lightning fast. I don't blame her, it would be a weird concept for mommy to kick you through her belly. I have been crafting a lot to keep myself entertained. I still have a long list of things to make before the baby comes but it has been good for me to keep busy. It has helped also to have aunt Kamber staying with us to help me not be bored and lonely during the day. We have lots of escapades when we deciede to explore, it usually turns into us getting lost for a while but we only gave up on our destination once.
silly teeth
Landon has liked his job. He has made some good friends there already and the atmosphere from what I hear is a pretty enjoyable one. There are some days where he does not have a lot to do so he has to kill time and there are other days that he has big projects and comes home pretty stressed. But the best part is that when he comes home he can turn work off and just enjoy time with us. Not to mention that he gets home at 5 everyday! Weekends and Holidays off are a big bonus too! So so far we are doing great but I can't wait to get home to visit in just a few weeks. We are missing everyone big time! Love you all!
