Our never ending bottle

This is how much shampoo/bodywash we've used in almost 8 months. I can see Charlize now on her 10th birthday . . .

"oh, it was so cool! I got a new bottle of shampoo and it didn't say baby on it."

Johnson and Johnson; now available in

travel, large and mormon size.

Ignorance may be bliss but that doesn't mean it's good!

Yesterday, like many days, I had Charlize in her Mega Saucer while I did chores. From the other room I could hear squeals of delight. I came in to find that she had spit up quite a bit of her sweet potatoes on the side of her mega saucer and was now finger painting in the goo. I was severely grossed out but she was having the time of her life.

Charlies first snow

It was chilly out side and Charlize got a kick out of sitting on the warm hood.

She kept saying, "ooh, ohh, ooh".

After driving about 30 minutes north of our camp ground we ran into snow and before turning around decided to enjoy it a little.

Colorado Vacation

Mike's family took us on a wonderful trip to Dolores, Colorado. We went to Priest Gulch Campground which was a favorite of his families growing up. Our cabin was right where a roaring creek met up with river which made for a a beautiful setting.

The weather was a little cooler than the 110 we had last week in AZ

The fam

Mike and I went walking near Bear Creek. The aspen were just starting to bud and Mike was happy because he could bring his new gun in case we saw another bear. That's right, another.

Melissa, how do you get this directly on the blog without using a link?

Going to the doctor to get sick

Here's a novel idea. . . lets make a cold vaccine. I took Charlize to the doctor perfectly healthy to get her vaccines and she came home with a cold. Fabulous! =) Poor thing, it's so hard when they can't blow their noses. She didn't gain enough weight in the last two months so we're stepping up the calories and feedings. Now if we can just get her to keep it down. For some reason she seems to want to throw everything up. Something about all that snot draining in her stomach?? So picky. =) I have tons of pics of my fam so I'll get those up as soon as I get a free moment.

Later today her temp was 103. Poor thing. We had a rough night. She's having a hard time breathing well enough to sleep.

Starting to sit

These links are a favorite toy to chew on. Thanks Kristen!

Play Time

Charlize still doesn't like to sit much but if I distract her with toys she doesn't notice. =)

more sounds

Here's a few more of her attempts at talking. So fun!

Crib Time

The crib is one of Charlize's favorite places to play now.

Mom, I finally finished the picture frame. Now I just have to get some recent pictures printed.
