Thanks Auntie Ann...

for this great toy. I love to lay under it and watch the lights. It keeps me entertained for a long time!

Lizzie loves it too!

Maybe it's the licking me part she likes.

Whenever Ryleigh is on the floor Lizzie has to be right there with her. It is stinking cute. When I first started putting Ryleigh on the floor I was watching Lizzie like a hawk because I was afraid she would step on her. But she somehow manages to step over or around her every time. Now I don't have to watch so closely anymore.

Park City

We had a nice weekend getaway in Park City. We did a lot of shopping, walking around downtown, swimming and we also hit Olympic Park. We met up with Devin's best friend Dallin and his fiance on Saturday and then Daren came and hung out with us on Sunday. It was nice to get out of town since it has been a while (I think February was the last time and that is very uncommon for us).

We discovered that Ryleigh is an excellent traveler. She did so well on the trip. She slept the majority of the time in the car and she was very content riding around in the stroller all weekend. Uncle Daren got this adorable picture of Ryleigh smiling away in her stroller.

2 Months

Ryleigh had her 2 month check up this morning which meant she got her first shots. No fun for baby or mom. She weighs 11 lbs 2 oz and is 22 1/2 inches long. She is growing just like she should be. I can't believe she is already 2 months old.

Ok, Nicole said I was a bad mother for not including a picture on this post. Here it is, just taken today. Yes, she is sucking her thumb and twirling her hair. She will no longer take a pacifier. Dad finally gave in and doesn't pull her thumb out of her mouth anymore. It is adorable now but wont be in the future. I don't know how we are going to break her of the thumb sucking when she gets older. Any ideas??

4th of July Weekend

We had a wonderful weekend with lots of family. We decided to bless Ryleigh on the 5th so we had a ton of family in town for that. My parents arrived on their motorcycle Thursday afternoon. On the 4th we went to a parade, had a BBQ and watched fireworks. All of Devin's family came in on Saturday night and we blessed Ryleigh on Sunday. Everyone then came over for dinner. Boy, was it a house full, but we had a good time.
