what we have been doing...

Enjoying the sun.
Out for a walk on a warm day.
We drive to the park to go for walks since the mobile home "neighborhoods" around us are not my ideal walking area.
First time swinging.

Exploring Pocatello...
2 things we've found to do in Pocatello:
Clean Museum - check
Museum of Natural history - check
Now what?

We went to the Museum of Natural History at ISU.

It was about the size of a classroom and we were the only ones there.

 It was still fun and kinda cool to see some skeletons of huge beasts that used to exist.
This giant bison has horns that are 8 feet wide.
See, we learned some very useful information.

We walked around the campus to enjoy the sun. 
 When we were done and we got back to our car, it wouldn't start. 
Sometimes it sucks living away from everyone you know.
Big eyes and rosy cheeks!
Those will cheer up any frustrating situation.
And don't worry, the big man upstairs is looking out for us and things always seem to work out...like our car miraculously starting after hanging out for a half hour.

Hanging out at home.
 Londyn's favorite place to be is the kitchen.
 Her favorite thing to do is check out the fridge.

And the dishwasher is a close 2nd.


Happy girl!

Sending Grandpa Lowe some love after his surgery.

Mama's girl to the max.
 Playing peek-a-boo with daddy.

"Oh Mom, you are too much!"


Easter.
 The Easter Bunny was lazy this year and didn't visit us...maybe next year?!
Chris is a BABE in his new suit.

Salt Lake.
Chris had a week off of work so we went to Salt Lake for General Conference weekend and spent part of the week down there.
Happy traveler.
If only it stayed that way... 

Pretty sunset on our drive to Salt Lake.

Grandma and Grandpa Lowe did a late Easter egg hunt for Londyn and cousin Quinn.
Not too sure about this.

Playing at Grandma and Grandpa Lowes.

 Spent Priesthood Session with all the girls at my parents' house (and then my dad joined us after).
Londyn was overwhelmed with attention when we got there and I think she secretly loved it.

 The best little helper.
Helping Mama find something to make for dinner.
(If a screen is on, Londyn MUST be looking at it).


Helping Daddy play his guitar.

Helping Mama push the shopping cart with a vice grip.

Helping Grandpa Lowe eat his ice cream.

Countdown.
4 weeks until we leave Pocatello.
5 weeks until I am married to a Doctor (aka graduation)!
8 weeks until Londyn turns 1.
9 weeks until we move to Kansas City.
11 weeks until Chris starts his residency.

We are just enjoying the calm before the storm...
the crazy storm of moving from Pocatello to Salt Lake, traveling to Portland for graduation (I miss it so bad and am SO excited to go back for a few days), finding a place to live in KC, celebrating Londyn's 1st birthday (sniffle),  moving from SLC to KC (17 hour drive?!), settling in, adjusting, and starting a new (temporary-ish) life there!

The pictures of Londyn are amazing! Such a great smile. I am sure you will miss her a lot while you are in KC but we will take good care of her. Visit anytime!

London is SO cute! Love seeing pictures of her. I can't believe your countdown. It probably doesn't seem like it but it will go by so fast and before you know it you will be living in Kansas! Crazy. But fun!
