Summer Pictures

What's summer without a few Popsicle's?
One fun thing we did this summer was to enroll in Mom-&-Tot swimming lessons at the Rec. Center that is just down the road from our house. Most of the kids were two and three but there were a few that were her age. It was 4 days a week for 2 weeks. Looking back, it was a blast, but in the moment when she was fussing and not floating on her back and trying to throw a fit- not so much.  Overall though she did really good and enjoyed it. It was really good at wearing her out. This picture is her face after a swim lesson, ha ha, kinda a blank stare.
Told ya swimming wears her out. This was the first time she actually fell asleep while eating!
This summer she learned.... HOW TO WALK! After the cast came off she was pretty stiff for about a month and still crawling but she has just got better and better all summer. She started to take a step here and there in June, but it was the 4th of July when she walked across the room all by herself. Of course that was the one day I do something fun and went river rafting down the Green River with a bunch of the Farnsworth family and she stayed with Grandma all day. At least it wasn't her very first steps I missed,and she hasn't stopped walking since! I was horrified to go river rafting at first but I highly recommend it. It was such a blast and I only almost died one time. haha. Just ask Daniel's cousins- I will never live it down.  

We went on a little vacation with Josh and Megan Farnsworth where we came to "the city" and did some fun things with them and their newly adopted kids. Daniel and Josh went golfing every day (the main reason for the vacation). We had fun at the mall, Cheese Cake Factory along with Chuck-E-cheese, and the zoo!
First carrousel ride


More swimming. The hose was hooked up to our underground well and it is COLD! Can you tell she is not happy about it. She was very vocal about letting us know too, then we took her out and asked if she wanted to get back in she quietly whispered "no" then loudly three more times just to make sure we heard her.

We have been to Salt lake Several times and I love getting to hang around my family and watching Emilee be absolutely adored by her grandparents. What a lucky girl, all her grandparents really love her.

My amazing sister-in-law Julia is a super hero woman having her second baby unmedicated. Little Ruby Anne is so adorable. We are excited to have another little girl join the family.  I miss my little baby.... does this mean I want another??? I don't know....

I love Emilee. She makes me so happy. Phineas keeps telling me how Emilee tried to eat the grass. :) We love hanging out with you and Ruby can't wait to see you again and meet Daniel!
