Lyla has a new little bestie. Brig and Lyla were so cute together. Brig cant wait for his new sister to arrive!

The fam went up the canyon to celebrate a few birthdays, we had tinfoil dinners. Our family always seems to have a competition with something so this time it was with dinner. Dani and Britti put blue food coloring in their dinner, which was fun. Tess did BBQ chicken, very yummy. Emily did pizza, Aleece did some yummy veggie ones and mom, dad and I did salmon. They were all very very yummy.

It felt so nice to have a fire up in the mountains, staring at the stars, wearing a jacket and not worrying about bugs getting me! It was pretty much dreamy.

So was this..

More of the two little besties

Fly me home

Its a new thing for me to fly back to Utah. I have to say its harder to leave family and friends than I thought. Last week Lyla and I flew home for Angelas wedding. We flew standby so we figured we better stay the week. Ty flew in on Friday so we had the whole week to see family and friends before he came. The time actually flew by way to fast and we totally ran out of time. We had such a great time with the fam, went hiking a bunch, had a fire up the canyon, went sailing, pedicures, and laughed so hard playing games.

Little Lyla did amazing for her first flight! Everyone on board was in love with her, she became besties with the flight attendant which I was happy about for I got extra snacks! woot woot!

Figuring out how the belt works

Lady bug lady bug where are you?

The Red Cardinal. Isn't he awesome! Just chillen on our patio table. He was looking right at me, it kind of freaked me out. I still cannot get over how many beautiful birds I see everyday. So many trees equals so many birds. Pretty fun.

   

We had a little swim party. Lyla got a new super cool pool buddy. Its super cute. She loves it! She just kicks her little legs and splashes the water around her. Tyler is proud of his awesome goggles. He must have a fashionable father that loaned them to him.

really 8 months?

Little Lyla is growing so so fast! 8 months today! Lyla is eating lots of yummy foods, especially loving the little net pacifier thingamajig. (I have been putting frozen snacks in them and she just loves it!) She is wanting to crawl, but not quiet there. Started pulling herself up on furniture though, she is so proud. She has become super interested in kids and babies. Does this mean she needs a sister?.... hum... nope...not yet! Lyla loves feeding herself treats and drinking out of sippy. She has little laugh attacks and just laughs so hard, its pretty dang funny. She is so interested in phones, pens, calculators, cords and remotes... What happened to books and blocks?

She is such a little person. I cant believe that she is eight months old! Holy Moses!

We have met some super fun peeps here. Tj and Ansley have a little baby just a month older than Lyla, Cohen, her little bestie. We went out hiking last weekend, it was so so so so so so hot. Mosquitoes were out and snackin on me. Not cool. Only one tick though so that was good.

little buddies

We really do have such a sweet dog. Little Lyla just tugs and pulls.

Lyla loves loves loves to eat. Today she had a little teether treat, it was super messy.

This is the sad face she gives me when I have to take it away.
Melts my heart.

First two and a half hour nap! Go Lyla!

Chillen. Loves to eat snacks just like her mamma! And dog...
