Zella has a Secret!

So, Zella has a secret that she is excited to share. Here she is when we told her the news....

And here is her big news!!! (Sorry about the photos. They are camera pictures.)

Zella is going to be a big sister! We just found out a few weeks ago, so it won't be until March, (Zella's actual birthday) that we are due. We are super excited and eager for our new addition into our little family!

Miss Funny Girl!

Zella is one funny little chica! She definitely has her own unique, wonderful personality. Here are two things that had made me laugh over the past week.

First, this is how Zella prefers to watch her favorite television show, The Fresh Beat Band, by riding a dinosaur! No couch or floor for her! It is all about the dino!

Second, this one still makes me laugh. Will and I realized that we hadn't heard Zella in a few minutes so we began to call her name, and no response. So we got up and began to look around the house, only to find her here, in the glass cupboard!

I still have no idea why she got inside or how she planned to get back out, but she did make me giggle!

I love you Zella!

Fourth of July Fun!

Zella had an exciting 4th of July weekend. It all began with her spending the entire day on Saturday with one of her BFF's, Asher! They had so much fun coloring, playing in the sandbox, bike riding, and just hanging out with one another. Look how cute those two are!

Big thanks to Asher's mommy and daddy for making the day super awesome!!

On Monday, we went to the traditional Fourth of July Pancake Breakfast over at our ward! Zella munched on delicious pancakes and scrambled eggs!

However, the most exciting part, was that Zella got to cheer on her cousins, Ellie and Duncan at the Primary bike parade! Here they are with their razzle dazzle bikes! They did awesome!!!!

Afterwards, we had all the families over for a big BBQ and swim party. Zella had a love-hate relationship with the fireworks. She kept putting her hands over her ears, but then clapped when they were done. She was just happy that all her family and friends were there to celebrate! Actually, I think that her favorite part is when she snuck a piece of cake off the kitchen counter when no one was looking....... sneaky girl!
