my due date is approaching so soon... i went to the doctor and we set up a day for induction... if all goes well i will be induced monday july 14th. i was induced with stella 10 days early as well because my fluids were low so my doctor would like to do the same... so that is very exciting for the snyder family.. stella is very excited to be a big sister, she is practicing with her baby dolls..

memorial weekend 2008

so we all headed down to the beach house to spend memorial weekend together..... thanks to our sister jenny to have us all at her beautiful new beach house... i was in the romance room and it was perfect... the weather wasn't great so we all bundled up and had too much fun.. we went to crab cooker, hosum bistro, ces si bon, rode bikes to great mex, had a power outage, church, celebrated lindsay's 19th birthday, played cards with m&m and diet cokes, blogged, and just hung out... was such a fun weekend but we were missing the weavers very much...

diamond back game

stella went to her first baseball game VIP style... we had such great seats and yummy food served to us.... she was all tuckered out by the end of the night...

arizona

we went to arizona to visit the knights and had so much fun.... papa bruce drove us and we got to relax and watch juno to pass the time... i was like the only child and my girl who was such a good little traveler... we were busy all weekend... we went to a ball game, went shopping at the scottsdale mall, movies, target, qt, sauce, paradise cafe...... it was so much fun to spend time with our sister who we miss soooo much... it was also a heat wave, i was dying...

lindsay's reception

lindsay's reception was at the richard nixon library and it was amazing... she was such a beautiful bride.... we had so much fun eating, talking, dancing.... it was such a fun fun night.. a night to remember always... we love you lindsay.... congrats to you and kyle....

lindsay's temple day

my little neice got married on friday in the newport beach temple.. it was such a beautiful day, the flowers were sooooo pretty....

palm springs

so we had such a fun time in palm springs.... the weather was perfect, not to hot... all the girls got together (we missed you zana) to get ready for a fun summer.... all the little girls have so much fun together... stella was such a fish, she loves the water.... oma and her totally bonded in the pool, about time....

bobsy twins

stella and tana are obsessed with whatever the other has.... they both love dora so much and run around in their dora pantys all day.... summer and i have to have 2 of anything or else there are major melt downs... we love our girls so much...

happy birthday stella

stella is 18 months old today.. yeah, nursery here we come... i can't believe how fast time has gone by... she is becoming such a little lady... we have so much fun everyday... we are best friends and i love her so much.... there is nothing like your first born.....

stella loves lady bugs

we went to the irvine spectrum to enjoy the beautiful weather and chloe found a friend... she found a lady bug and held on to it the entire time we were there.... during lunch at wahoos, riding the carousol, old navy it was hilarious... finally she let her friend play with stella and she was so intrigued... stella picked up the lady bug off the table and watched it crawl all over her.... it was so precious and of course tana wanted nothing to do with it... i think we figured out the lady bug couldn't fly...

aspen

so we went to aspen and had such a good time... we stayed at the st. regis which was amazing, 5 stars... we went with jereme's company and they took care of everything which was a dream.... we left our stella with her oma and untie leslie and she had such a blast.. thank you to them and all my sisters for watching my wild child... i missed her so much but this trip was much needed for jereme and i to hang out and just relax... they got alot of snow so jereme was quite happy on the slopes... i got to experience the spa which is my new favorite spa ever.... i got my first spa manicure and pedicure and it was definintly worth it.... so lots of good food, shopping, watching movies, and relaxing before my baby boy comes to join our family...

easter day

it was such a beautiful sunny easter day... we went to early church and got to see the weaver's there... stella has never been so excited to be at church... tana and her were going back and forth from seat to seat... we then went to my mom's for a great easter dinner and great conversation... we then went over to jereme's mom's house and had an egg hunt which was so fun... stella got most the eggs, she is very into easter eggs..

easter morning

so easter morning was so much fun.... stella had no idea that the easter bunny came to our house until she saw her basket... she just kept smiling and laughing... she showed me everything in her basket and carried her new purse around all day... i will never forget this special morning...

easter bunny

so we took stella to see the easter bunny and let's just say she wasn't a fan.... luckily we have a whole year until we try again...

fun beach day

my daughter is obsessed with diet coke..... we have a problem.....

doctors & lunch at the beach

so i had my 20 week ultra sound and it's official.... it's a boy and we are so excited.. he was such a little wiggle worm and didn't stop moving the whole time... i think we had a moment... it was such a beautiful day so we decided to have fun... we all piled in to summer's car and met up with my mom and sister down at the beach... we went to our favorite hole in the wall "great mex" for lunch, so yummy, best fish tacos ever... oma was entertaining the little girls while we ate, telling them monster stories.... tana was getting her nap in the car which was much needed.... we miss you zana and can't wait to see you soon...

merry go round

so stella has always been so scared of the merry go round, she would get this look of fear and freeze up.. it was funny but sad at the same time.. i would end up holding her most of the ride until recently... we went to irvine spectrum and i was waiting for the cry until i heard a weee, weee.... she love the merry go round, she didn't want anything to do with me... it was so precious and a moment i will never forget, she is growing up...
