Memphis Trip

Second roadtrip of the summer thank goodness this one was only 8 hrs instead of 20! But somehow Olivia had a little tougher time with this one.

We stopped at Mcdonalds on the way there and she had fun eating/making a mess with her ice cream :)

She didn't want to go in the play place by herself luckly I can manage to go in...
We had some fun with the Jakes family at the zoo here Olivia is hanging out with her cousin Mckenna
She all the sudden decided she wanted to run with her Pappa which was so adorable and shocking..she was totally hauling it at the zoo taking him with her :)
Olivia had so much fun with these two and they were so cute with her ..playing with her and chasing her around she had a blast
On the way back from Memphis Olivia and Jake shared a Frosty :) She made a crazy HUGE mess ice cream everywhere sure the Wendys people loved us :) I did try and clean it up as much as possible only so much you can do with sticky ice cream

Flirting with her Daddy:)

Utah Trip Part 2

Unfortunately I did a HORRIBLE job at taking photos So I don't have very many from our trip. To start off the trip we went to my parents house in Logan and as always Steph and my Mom do a puzzle and Olivia was having fun "helping" them

Olivia with her Aunt Steph.. it was fun to see Olivia warm up to other people and go up to her aunts/uncle/grandparents and want them to pick her up instead of me. Probably cause she knew she could get what she wanted from them :)

This is a picture with her cousin Presley they are 1 mnth apart

Olivia loved her cousin Ryker but I think she definitely was a ummmm a little to much for him after a while. She had fun chasing him around alot!

Olivia Enjoyed relaxing on this trip:) and we all did for sure

We had so much fun and we did a lot of stuff! I can't believe how bad a slacked on taking photos. We enjoyed seeing family and friends . My dad planned a bunch of fun stuff for us to do during our visit, boating at bear lake, bowling, movie, hiking and we also were able to go enjoy all of our favorite restaurants since we still do not have any here in Texas. I was also able to go to my cousin Bres wedding which I was so happy I was able to do that! As far as planning a almost month long trip leaving July 19th- August 15th we couldn't have planned it at a better time. It was a really really hot summer here over 100 every day for over 2 mnths !

Olivias Fashion Sense

So heres a few pics we took while we were in Utah .. and yes she accessorized herself :)

Blogging Again/ Utah Trip

So I've decided to start blogging again.. This will probably be the closest I'll come to having a journal and I want to be able to eventually print this off...

Ok So to start off our road trip to Utah.. It was a 20 hr drive! It took us 24 not to bad .. we just to a few long stops for Olivia and she was SO awesome the whole way up there. On the way back she had a little tougher time but I think all 3 of us were just so ready to get home since we were in Utah for a whole month.

( Stopping at my favorite road trip restaurant Cracker Barrel )

So Olivia was enjoying this package I got from Soap.com ( which I would recommend the things I buy are the same price + they have online coupons and I did have one bottle spill just a little bit I e-mailed them and they sent me a new one without any hassle so I got another bottle for free :) )

I thought this was pretty funny ... who knows what goes through these little babies minds :) and I just wanted to show off our little baby and her walking skills:) so cute I love it! P.S. just ignor me in the video Jake I guess felt like he needed to capture my fabulousness in the morning

The Christmas Season

Again I know this is just a little late:)

We had fun opening up christmas packages

and playing with her christmas cup ( notice the joker smile )

We had fun watching Olivia learn to dance to Christmas music

I can't believe this beautiful sweet little girls 1st birthday has already come and gone.. Unfortunately this little sweetie wasn't in the best of mood for her birthday ( or the whole week before it ) so we didn't get a single pic of her smiling :(. But we had my family here for the week to celebrate this special day. I feel so lucky to have Olivia in my life and what a sweet little girl she is. A few things I love about my little Olivia is her smile it just completely lights up my day and she smiles at EVERYONE I love taking her anywhere specially the store she gets everyones attention she possibly can and flashes a huge smile and just talks to them. I love how much this little girl talks she will TALK your ears off she just talks talks talks all day long its so much fun and i'm going to miss when she doesn't do this baby talk anymore. I love how she LOVES to follow me around but I also love how she can entertain herself . Its been so much fun watching how she has changed over the yr and looking forward to all the new changes and enjoying everything she does now :)
