nO mOrE bAbA's!

Ok so I finally decided to give up the bottles! Arailia never had a problem giving them up it was me! I want my little baby to be a little baby still! So today I decided that we would pack up all the bottles and go cold turkey! She has done great! She is such a big girl now!!! This past month or so Rae has loved drinking out of cups! And every time she takes a drink we have to clap! It is funny to watch her when we put a straw in her cup and watching her chase the straw trying to catch a sip!
(p.s. I know I should have given them up at a year but what the heck!)

My word!

Arailia has a wide range of words she can say now! Some of the things she can say is for example, dada, mama, baba, nose, bye-bye, no, eat, cheese, g(Jesus), hi, grandma, grandpa, papa, i love you, thank you, please, eyes, boo, shoes, toys, bath, (kjglakjgkjgdskjg)giberish! Of course she can say lots more but I dont want to bore you and it is midnight and my brain is gone! For about a month now she has started to put words together! Her first two word sentence was ,"hi dada" she also can say dada bye-bye, hi papa, and a few others! Rae loves to copy what we say! It is so funny to hear how she copies some of our words but makes us very aware that we need to be or so careful what we say and do around here now!

Road Trip!

Today was such a nice day! We decided to clean up seth's car and give it a nice wash! Then we decided we would take a road trip down to Salt Lake to visit Jen and Ryan! We had so much fun! We made yummy cookies and played games! It was fun to see them since we cant alot due to long drives! We also ate at Outback Steak house (thanks dad)! All I can say is I have never finished a meal before... I always bring home a to go box! Well not tonight! I had the best juicy steak and mashed potaoes and grean beans! My plate was so clean! Yumo! Overall today was a very fun day! Being together as our little family was fun!

Like my ride!

BEFORE RAE WAS ONE SHE LOVED TO PLAY IN BOXES! SHE WAS EATING HER GRAPES AND WATCHING HER TV SHOW IN HER BOX!

Railee likes to be a bed hog just like her daddy! When Seth came home from work tonight he said she was sleeping just like he does all spread out! Yep she is a daddy's girl!

Phone call to Grandma Winnie!

Rae loves to call people and will talk to you forever on the phone! Today she called my mom and she was walking around the house being a shatter box! She makes my dad's day when she says; "hi papa". She likes to have a conversation simply saying hi the whole time! Watch out she also likes to growl on the phone!(those are raisins on the floor lol)

pOoR lItTlE tOoFeRs!!!!

Arailia has been struggling with her poor little teeth! She is in the process of getting her two top teeth! I know she is a late bloomer but I am ok with that! She was hurting so bad tonight that I gave her a yummy popsicle! That seemed to calm her down!

I love car rides.... Well sometimes!

Rae fell asleep on our way home from feeding the duckies! I love my princess! She makes me so happy and so happy to be alive!

Swingin' with my daddy!

Before we left to go feed the duckies Seth and Arailia played outside! This is what I found them doing! How cute right!
