April was crazy.
It started off with my birthday. John and I went out and had dinner at Aubergine. It was seriously so so so yummy! They have these pita pockets that were so incredibly filling and delicious! And we found out there is one in Salt Lake! My birthday present was the Adele ticket. So excited for that trip!
The month was busy, with the last few weeks of school and finals for John.
Packing up and moving up to Salt Lake for the summer.
It was crazy.
John started his summer (hopefully after graduation) job at the law firm Bennet Tueller Johnson and Deere. He was super nervous for his first day, but of course it went awesome! He got there WAY too earlier and got adopted by one of the litigation attorney's (he wants to get into business law) but after almost a week he has projects with litigation and business, he is keeping super busy at work and doing well thus far! And he's home by 6 :)
And finally, Olivia turned two! Super mixed emotions about this! I love watching her little (huge) personality grow. I love seeing her get excited about new things she can do. She loves pointing out pictures of Jesus and temples. When we go on walks she points out birds, dogs, flowers, and trees. She loves to say "bye bye" to cars that pass by and then she laughs about it. She doesn't give kisses as freely as she used to, so that's a little sad for us. She loves loves loves to dance and constantly asks for me to play music for her. She hates being home alone with me, she loves playing with friends, cousins, pretty much anyone that is more exciting than me haha. She talks so much and her vocabulary is growing like crazy. She can say little sentences and communicate more easily each day. She also throws crazy tantrums and says, "no thank you" over and over and over if she doesn't want to do something, like go to bed. She is such a sweetheart and I love her.
On Olivia's birthday her and I blew bubbles outside, went for a walk, went to Costco to get samples and a churro. Then when John got home we had one of her favorite meals, dairy free rutabaga kale lasagna, went on the trampoline (she hated it), and went and got waffle love!
Originally, on Saturday we were going to go to the zoo for her birthday but it was supposed to rain so we changed plans and decided on Discovery Gateway children's museum instead. It was a blast! We went with family and friends and Olivia loved it and was sad to leave. Then we went back home and had Costco chicken salad croissant sandwiches, salad, strawberries, and I made a strawberry dairy free cheesecake.
Olivia got books, blocks, a baby, and bubbles (among a few other things) for her birthday. And I'm pretty sure the bubbles were her favorite, but she loved everything.
I love my little family. I love John, I love Olivia, and I love the time we spend together.
