what happened to april?

We are not three days into the month of May and I am still baffled as to where the month of April went.  I only have a handful of pictures from April and they are all from the circus and New Orleans.  I guess that's what we did.

For the second year in a row, Harper, Cayden and I went to the circus with friends.  To say that we all LOVE the circus would be a huge understatement.  All three of us wait all year long for this weekend and can barely sleep the night before.  Although we were disappointed that there was no elephant to see, we had a blast (which is obvious from Harper's face...remember she slept through the whole thing last year)!

 

 

Next, it was time for Mommy and Daddy to head to New Orleans.  Brace yourself for this shocking piece of information...ready?...this was the first solo trip that we had taken since our trip to Jamaica 5 years ago and I was pregnant with Cayden at the time.  Now, that you have wiped that shocked and/or horrified look off your face I can tell you that New Orleans is an amazing city.  It is the BEST place for people watching and you can spend hours just walking around.  We had some of the most amazing food and you have to love a city where every other store/business down almost every street has a whole wall of frozen drink machines and every drink you buy from any bar or restaurant comes in a giant to-go cup!  Bonus - we also missed the massive April blizzard that hit Bismarck :-)

 

BEST OYSTERS EVER!!!

 



 

The rest of April saw 70+ degree weather while we still had snow on the ground, much better days/nights/weekends with Miss Davis and a new found obsession with watching morning cartoons in Mommy's bed. 

 

Her love of accessories has now been extended to include her babies and stuffed animals.  Why wouldn't her elephant need both a hat and a headband?
