Full of Smiles!

Lila is full of smiles and loves talking! I cannot get enough of this cute girl and can't believe how fast she's growing up!

From Night to Morning

My little girl refuses to go to bed before midnight, however I do Love those hours of just cuddling and rocking her! I know this time is limited so even if I have to stay up all night I'm going to enjoy this time with her being tiny!

 On the up side she usually sleeps for a good six or seven hours after she does fall asleep. Then I wake up to this sweet face!

She is getting a little chunky, and that's fine by me!!! I always said I wanted a fat baby!  :)

Lila's Pictures!

My cousin Lindsey came and took some pictures of Lila for me, she did such a good job! We absolutely love this baby girl!!!

She's here!

Our precious baby girl decided to come on 9-11, four days after her due date and two days before a scheduled induction. (Thank goodness, I did not want to be started!)  Labor was long, epidurals are great,  Braden is Amazing, and we LOVE our sweet baby Lila!

I'm surprised at how many people mis pernounce her name, I thought it was pretty self explanitory (Lye la)

 

 

Beginning of summer!

It's never quite the beginning of summer until you've had to pick peas!
Although I realized this year its a lot more work without all the helping hands.

Braden helped me pick for a few min before work but then it Literally took me all day to finish picking, shell, wash and freeze them.  I decided frozen peas aren't something you can tell an extreme difference in from the store and they are a lot of work; so next year I'll be planting just enough to eat fresh.

Garland Salmon Bake

We went to the annual Garland Salmon Bake at the first of June and once again it did not disappoint!  The food was delicious, and the company was enjoyable as well.  If you've never been, it is definitely  something to experience. The fire department puts it on each year to raise money.  Don't let the prices or the drive deter you from going because it is all worth it!

They pile your plate with fresh smoked salmon, drenched in a delicious-artery clogging butter sauce, add a baked potato, salad, roll and a drink and send you on your way.   

Oh and did I mention, if you raise your hand, they have people that walk around with warm salmon and sauce to fill you up until your stomach is content-or overly full!

Hair cut

Looks so much better, wouldn't ya say?  Mostly I just love that I'm not coved in white fuzzies every time he runs into me now.
