Summer Fun

Lydia's 2nd Birthday

Santa

We took Lydia to the rec center in Castle Dale to see Santa. After waiting in line for an hour, Lydia was sure happy to see Santa(haha). Everybody has to have a picture crying on Santa's lap.

Henry Mountains

This year Brady drew an archery Henry Mountain Deer tag. Eventhough it was a long couple of months for all of us, all of the hard work and dedication payed off.

Wind, and more wind

Brady, Lydia, and I went to Wayne County to get Lydia's pictures taken by cousin Kaylin. Of course the wind was horrible, when is it not lately! We ended up taking pictures inside we still had a lot of fun. The pictures are going to be adorable, especially with Kaylin's creativity. I will post some pics when I get them.

Working in the yard

We have been spending a lot of time in the yard (well mostly Brady) trying to get ready for planting grass. Brady made a garden and we were finally able to plant a couple veggies. Lydia loves being outside, she likes to eat rocks and dirt (yummy).

9 Months...

3 months has already gone by. I cant seem to keep up. Lydia is getting big so fast! It seems like she does something new everyday. I love spending every minute with her. So she has 2 new teeth one on the bottom and one on top and she has 3 more teeth coming in on the top. Ya I know, Holy Crap! I feel so bad, but it doesn't seem to bother her as much as it should. It makes my mouth hurt just thinking about it. She must be tuff like her mom (haha). She is crawling everywhere and she pulls herself up on everything. She has just started to walk while holding on to the couch or coffee table. Today she climbed to the top of the stairs. What next walking?

Time for an update!

Its seems like life is so hectic during the holidays I am so ready for the new year! Lydia will be 7 months on January 7th. She brings so much joy into our lives. She was definitely spoiled this year for Christmas. She got lots of cute stuff but yet she would rather play with the cell phone. Lydia had her 6 month checkup this Sunday. She weighs 17 pounds and is just under 28 inches. Everything went well we were happy to hear she is healthy as can be. We lost our dog Tori a couple of weeks ago. We came back from our trip to Colorado and she was no where to be found. I still keep hoping she is going to show up. We have been heartbroken and we miss her a lot.
We have been trying to buy a house in Orangeville. It has been taking forever. We are getting so anxious and we are ready for a place of our own. It will be a great starter home for our family. Well that seems to sum it up. Here are some pictures.

Wrapping paper and the train

Lydia loved the train my mom put around her Christmas tree. The other day i was wrapping a birthday present and Lydia got into the paper, I think she is ready for Christmas presents. Lydia also had her first hair cut by her Aunt Benita while I went black friday shopping. Brady thinks she looks more like a boy, I keep telling him it will grow out even.

Thanksgiving

This year for Thanksgiving we went to the senior center in Castle Dale with the Larsen family. I made a delicious pumpkin cheesecake and spinach dip. All the food was great. We were all stuffed! I did a horrible job at taking pictures, I only snapped a couple. I hate when i do that.

Halloween Day

Lydia was cutest kitty for Halloween. I had to work but I was able to get off early so we went to a Halloween party at Aunt Marlayne's in Elmo. Grandma Reba made homemade root beer, the kids loved it! Lydia has been a little fussy and didn't have too much fun, she has been teething. She has 2 bottom teeth already!

1st Halloween fun!!

Grandma B and Aunt Benita made this cutest pumpkin hat with the spider. Loved it!

4 months!
