Baby #2: 23 Week Update and Staheli Farm in Utah

Oh my goodness, we had the best time in St. George, Utah last weekend visiting the Staheli Family Farm! I think this may quickly become a tradition for us. :) St. George is a really easy two-hour drive from Las Vegas and it's beautiful there. I saw this farm the fall when Gianna was born and have been waiting to take her there. We had such a fun day with our good friends, Jack and Laura and their little guy, John who will be one in December. Gianna was fascinated by him and is constantly talking about "baby John". I think she is really going to love being a big sister!

We left the house around 11am which worked out perfectly for nap time. Gianna slept almost the whole way there and was ready to eat some lunch and get her farm on when we got there. We brought our little red Radio Flyer wagon. This thing is awesome and we are getting so much use out of it (thank you, Uncle Billy!). Gianna and John had fun riding together. They are going to be little buddies!

We took a big wagon ride out to the corn maze!

It was the most beautiful day! #nofilter :)

Alright, guys....which way do we go?

They loved sharing this ball...and throwing it over the side.

We ended up creating our own "path". How many attorneys does it take...

She was so excited to find corn! She held onto this for quite a while. :)

The farm was so pretty. After the corn maze we explored the other activities that were there. We visited the pumpkin patch, petting zoo and even had a little ice cream. Gianna had a great time going down the slides and even went on her very first pony ride!!!!

Loving on her little brother!

These two are just too much together! SO sweet!

My First Pony Ride!

I hung onto mommy for dear life. :)

23 Week Update!

Feeling good! Lots of kicks. Lots of tiredness. :)

Baby #2: 24 Week Update and Halloween

We have been looking forward to Halloween for the last few weeks. Gianna learned a pirate song at school that quickly became one of her favorites. She knows all the words and sings it all the time. When I stumbled across a preggo Halloween shirt on Amazon that had a little baby boy pirate skeleton I knew what the fam was going to be this year! Pirates! Argggg! :)

Gianna was SO excited! We went in search of the perfect pirate costume and made a really big deal out of it when we found one. She kept saying, "I be a pirate!" and would carry around her costume. We had to pry it away from her to buy it. We rehearsed trick or treating in the days leading up to Halloween so she would know what to expect and she had it down the day of. We had a little party at our house and there were about ten of us. It was such a fun night!

I don't need candy, mom. I have goldfish!

We went around the cul de sac and visited our neighbors then went around the neighborhood a bit. She did such a good job saying "Trick or Treat" and "Thank You". She is such a polite and sweet little girl. There were a few dogs along the way that stole her attention, especially the one that was dressed up. :)

When we got back to the house, Gianna had a blast transferring the candy from bucket to bucket! I think this was more fun than actually getting the candy.

With her booty!
