well, jon drove from arizona to san antonio straight through. we didn't get home until 5am the next day. he literally drove for like 20 hours straight. we knew our drive would require lots of stops with this little baby. she'd sleep, wake up and cry so we'd pull over, feed her and let her get fresh air for awhile then get back in the car. she did so good!! our final stop was to feed her and put her in her jammies around 8, her normal bedtime. that's about when i fell asleep too and jon drove solo until we got home. i would not recommend that, my friends. sketchy, but hey-we made it.
this was the day after our long drive. hard to believe you'd be tired after sleeping for almost two days straight!!! when we got home she started to say "bah bah bah". she went to sleep not knowing how to say it, and when she woke up that's all she was saying. it is so amazing to see this child literally learn something new every day.
this was also around the time that she really seemed like she was going to crawl. i recorded her so much thinking i'd see her just get up and go. little did i know, it would be weeks before she actually did.
i stare at her while she sleeps. this little thing is going to break my heart.
see what i mean?
started getting more hair than we knew what to do with!!!!!!
swimming with daddy at nobu. this pool is pretty cool, but she always did really well. it would take her a minute to get used to the temperature then she'd be fine for awhile until she started to shiver and we'd go home!!! she and i spent quite a few days there sitting on the ledge behind jon. it wasn't really hot enough to get in every time.
here she is playing with ice in her bumbo on the deck. she loved doing that. 
she started doing this weird fake smile/grimace and it was so funny! this is the best picture i got of it. i swear she would do this when i would be trying to make her laugh and it simply wasn't funny. she would do it a lot to people she didn't see very often as well. it was like a sympathy smile for at least trying to get her to laugh.
you guys, i can't. this is when she was still sleeping with us in the mornings and napping probably once a day in our bed. this was before we sleep trained her, so i would have a hard time getting her to fall asleep. she would almost always fall asleep if i cuddled up next to her and pulled the comforter up by our faces. this is also around the time i posted a photo of her on her photo stream wrapped up in lots of blankets. i got a firm talking to not only from my father in law, but from my step mother in law the next day. sometimes she wouldn't fall asleep until i bundled her up in blankets! she'd almost always fall asleep within minutes, then i'd go in and take all the blankets off of her (mostly so she wouldn't sweat to death) and let her sleep next to pillows so she wouldn't roll. needless to say, she stopped sleeping in our bed pretty soon after this :(
jon got primmy a little jacket to match his. he's really into patches right now and jackets that have velvro areas to attach the patches! it looks so cute on her and the little kid patches are smaller and have brighter colors. she doesn't appreciate them yet, but she will.
the draper temple where we got married. the middle is an image i bought for us before we got married ."love you so so so much" and the one on the end i bought for her a few days before she was born. "and baby makes three".
wow, i can't even explain how much it rained this month. it just rained. and rained. and rained. fortunately, there was no damage done to our house or property. a lot of other people northwest of us were not so lucky.
