Cousins with Style

LL Cool Baby...

The cutest pair of cousins I know.

Have you seen a MOBY?

After researching slings, wraps, carriers, and all other such baby transportation devices, I decided that the MOBY wrap was my fave. It can be used for teeny babies up to large toddlers. You can wrap it in so many ways and it distributes the weight evenly. Not to mention that I am getting in touch again with my Flagstaff earthy days. I honestly don't use it much, but when I do, I think, 'Man, this thing is cool!'

We are so happy J, Kendra and Baby Jemma came to visit us! And they will be moving down the street soon! Yay!

A NAME AND A BLESSING...and a Blessing...and a Blessing...and a Blessing...and a Blessing

Baby Kai finally received his baby blessing last week. We decided to bless him up in Pinetop in the ward I grew up in. What can I say, I'm nostalgic. The best part was that my sister's baby was blessed at the same time, as well as a FAMILY WITH TRIPLETS. Yeah, I'm not kidding. Not to mention the fact that it was Labor Day weekend in the mountains (tons of visitors).





Check out the bow tie. Very fancy.







Dave wants him to be a soccer player, but what can you do when the baseball outfit is too cute?






Kai laughing with his Great-Grandmother.



Can we go home yet?

Happy Little Guy

This is how my mommy found me in my crib the other morning. It's her fault for putting me in one of those bag like pajamas instead of my usual sleeper. And yes, I smile first thing in the morning. I can't help it.

Hanging around at Home

These are some things I like to do at home:



Take my baby bath while my mommy sings songs about soap to me...



Watch Baby Einstein, Mission Impossible and So You Think You Can Dance...





Do my pre-crawling exercises on the bed.

I love to hang out at home with my mom!

10 States Before Age 3 Months

Well, it feels like it is way past summer, even though its still almost 110 degrees (by the way, it's supposed to cool down and rain more) anyways, I digress. Summer may be over, but I wanted to post a few pictures and describe our intense travels.



Dave's summer alarm selling job took us to Birmingham Alabama this year. I fortunately felt great after my C-section and joined him out there when Kai was three weeks old. It was very hot and very humid there. Honestly didn't care for it much.



Oh Alabama, you may be beautiful, but you are rediculously humid and I hate your bugs.

The office was thankfully moved to Sioux Falls, South Dakota. I absolutely loved living there and would love to return.



It is actually named for these beautiful falls. We returned home at the beginning of August, but made a few stops along the way. These pictures are from a mammoth dig site that may sound lame to most of you, but rocked my geeky little world. It was amazing.





We also got to see Mt. Rushmore which is really in the middle of nowhere when it comes to the grand scheme of things as far as U.S. geography. So, in case you never make it to the middle of nowhere, take my word for it...it actually looks better on television than in person.




But Kai would make a cute President, don't you think?

So, to wrap it up, we traveled a huge triangle across the entire country. Kai was such a trooper, we got to see lots of things we've never seen before and change many roadside diapers. We are glad to be home!
