April was a busy month for us. Addison had a lot of dance performances as well as spring break. I was able to take the week off of work and stay home with her. Spring break kicked off with Addison performing at a Utah Jazz Game. Here are some pictures from the Jazz game she performed at on Friday, April 3rd.
Here Addison is during their pre-game performance at the Jazz game.
Here Addison is on her last pose of the dance.
Here she is posing for us after her performance.
Addison got a balloon crown made for her at the game. :)
Addison really started getting into cheering towards the end of the game...once the sugar started to kick in. :) In the background here is Andrew Smith. Andrew and Aaron Smith (our neighbors) came with us to the game.
The next day after the Jazz game performace, she had a performance at the University of Utah. Here she is posing for the camera.
After all that performing fun, Addison's Aunt Trish and cousin Lincoln came to visit. Trish went back to Boise and left Lincoln with us. My mom also came down to help watch Lincoln with us. We had a lot of fun. The first day, we went to the Tree House Museum. They both had a blast! Here are some pictures.
Addison and Lincoln up in the treehouse.
Lincoln enjoyed running through the cave and getting scared by Aunt Sari-Bear.
Lincoln found a bridge and absolutely loved running up and over it. He even stopped long enough to pose for a picture.
We not only went to the Treehouse Museum, but Addison really wanted to go to Chuck E Cheeses one night for dinner....so we took her. This was my first experience...and I am thinking perhaps my last (at least for a while). It was crazy, but Addison had a lot of fun and I am pretty sure Lincoln did too. Here is Addison crawling around in one of the tube things there.
At the end of that week, we drove Lincoln back to his mom and dad in Boise. It was a lot of fun and Addison was sad that she had to leave. We are planning to go back to Boise in May for Trish's graduation (my sister-in-law). Addison is excited to see Lincoln again.
Two weekends later, Addison had a competition at Roy High School. They took 1st in their division. Addison was able to go up and get the trophy for her team. Here is a picture with one of her team mates and the trophy. All the girls got an individual award. Addison really liked that one.

So, we had some sadness in the Stagg household this past week. Addison's goldfish, Mila, died. I think Addison was sad for a couple of hours.....then she was over it. Brett held a little toilet-side funeral service and Addison flushed her away. Honestly, I can't believe the goldfish lived for as long as it did. I think we figured it was almost a year! Addison really cared for the goldfish. She propped a book up behind the fish tank so the fish would have a book to read. She would change the pages when she would remember. We will miss our little Mila fish.
In regards to the pregnancy, it's still the same. I still feel sick, but I think my body has come to accept it...no need to fight it. :) I am now 23 weeks along. Still no names yet. I figure we still have some time.
Brett lost his job on Wednesday. I took it a lot worse than he did. He is quite relieved, actually. It has been a really bad work environment for some time now. We will just keep the faith that things will be alright and we will be taken care of. It's great to have such a great family and great neighbors. They have been very supportive.
Addison will be starting swim lessons in June and is looking forward to it. Brett has also been working with Addison's Kindergarten class to make an art project for the school's annual fund raiser/art auction. She is also excited that Daddy is going to be staying home with her for a little while. I am too...now some of those long-neglected projects can get done. ;)
Here is a video of her after her tooth came out.
