April 11th-April 13th we were super busy and productive.
On Friday, I cleaned the house, took Hudson to the park, ordered the baby's crib and cleaned the scrapbooking room while Hud napped.
On Saturday, we filed our taxes, picked out paint samples, ordered our chair for the nursery and Nic began taping the nursery. I also ate eggs or the first time, which was very exciting!
On Sunday I filled Easter eggs and Nic painted the nursery. I ate peanut butter for the first time in years (I had Cap'n Crunch Peanut Butter crunch! Yum! Then I ate a few Reeces peanut butter eggs while I filled the Easter eggs). That afternoon, we met my dad and Sabrina in Agua Dulce to go for a helicopter ride. The poppies had bloomed so we went for a quick flight to check them out. Then we had dinner at La Cabana.
I also stayed up late most nights working on two projects. The first project was a banner for Easter. It was pretty simple to make and turned out really cute.
The second was an album for Ruby. I had hoped to have it for Rachelle's shower, but between shower planning and my pregnancy exhaustion, it just didn't happen. Anyways, I knew I wanted to have it ready when Ruby was born, so I've been working really hard on completing it (especially since Rachelle's doctor keeps saying she will arrive early). I love how it turned out!! I hope I have a little girl some day so I can use all the pink and purple flower and cupcake scrapbooking paper! Here are a few of the details of the book:
On August 11th, my dad took Hudson, Susan, Lauren, Oliver and me for a ride in the helicopter. It was Oliver and Hudson's first helicopter ride. Hudson loved it, but Oliver wasn't as thrilled. He got pretty scared and cried for most of the flight. He did enjoy the part where we flew over the ocean though! It was such a beautiful day! We flew through the dessert out to the coast, went along the coastline for a bit, then flew in land over Hollywood, then over my parent's house before heading back to the airport. The coastline and Hollywood sign were the highlights for me. When we got back to the Agua Dulce airport, my dad let Susan test out her piloting skills (don't worry my dad used to be a helicopter instructor). Susan was nervous, but she did great!
After the flight, we went to my parent's house for a BBQ and swimming. It was a really fun day.
