Random March 2017 Happenings.

A photo dump from March.
 Cora loved her bunny ears.
 Cora loves hanging out with us in the morning before work.

 We got a DVD player, and had a party with "baby brother" (the name of her doll).

 Steve and Karen came down one weekend and we got to visit some of the Blossom Trail. It is so amazing and SMELLS SO GOOD! This is an apple orchard.
 





 See? She loves hanging out with us in the mornings.
 25 weeks with baby brother! Still running a few times a week, but barely.

 FINALLY, we could do pigtails. How cute is that?
 We got a pass to the zoo. $75 for the family? Why not! Cora loves animals so it is perfect for her.
 Komodo dragons are creepy, but Cora just stared it down.
 Cutest pigtail crew!
 

 Cora wanted to see the elephants, then immediately ran away to play with her friends. But it was pretty cool!
 One of the best parts of the zoo is that for $3 you can feed the giraffe 3 pieces of lettuce. I thought Cora was going to be afraid of it, but she jumped right in! She was much less nervous than I was.






We're so excited for Bethany to go on a mission!! Puerto Rico is so lucky.
 I ran a 5k one Saturday morning. I was excited because I still broke 45 minutes, which isn't bad when I have a belly bouncing along. 
 Poor sick baby. This climate has rocked her.
 Cora slept in until 10 one day. It was amazing, except she had to be touching me ALL THE TIME so I couldn't do anything.
 I got to take a test for my master's degree early one morning. Luckily I passed!
 We painted nails for St. Patrick's Day, which is Cora's favorite thing.
 Kisses for the nice baby. 


 The library had toddler yoga. It was adorable.
 We got to do the 25 cent trolley one day.

 Music Makers one week was at Bravo Farms, which had a tree house and an alpaca to feed. What else could Cora want?

Random February 2017 Happenings

Since I've been neglecting the blog, here is a quick catchup of February!

Cora LOVED her first Clif bar. She pounded that thing down.. probably helped that it was chocolate.
 We took Cora to get her first haircut! She tried to hide her hair under a hat.
 
 We will need to find a cute haircut place in Visalia like this. Cora loved sitting in the cars.

 "Can I help you?"



 So many heart eyes right now!

 We took her to In-N-Out to celebrate. She loved her shake.


 Cora made me laugh super hard at her faces one night. She loves getting her pictures taken, especially with the flash on.
 Seriously, the flash. 
 19 weeks and still running. Cora and I are starting to look like each other in the middle area.

 I LOVE how clear the view of the mountains can be!
 First week of 1:00 church. She lasted about 30 seconds in the car on the way home.
 Yep, both my hands. I woke up so swollen one day. Luckily, it went away quickly and I won't have that problem if I don't sleep on my right side or have a hair tie around my wrist.
 Cora is so cool.
 She loves to rock her babies all the time.
 Story time is so cute here! They actually like kids running around and being normal toddlers. Which is so unlike Miami.


 Cora will sit on the swings for hours if we let her!
 World's biggest chicharron!
 This is what happens when I tell Cora "no Elmo"...
 The children's museum here is really cute! And pretty well priced for the year.







 Cora LOVES getting her "nay-ohs" painted and I love it too. It makes everything so cute when she flashes the nails around.
 Cora got to hold her first real baby. She was obviously thrilled.

 Brandon had his first day of work on the 20th! We're so proud of all his hard work for us.
