Sprinkler Time

It was so nice yesterday that the kids and I decided to get out the pool and sprinkler. Unfortunately we couldn't find our pool. Luckily we have great neighbors so we went and borrowed one.

Sunny loves her new bathing suit.

It's all good when he sprays her, but let me tell you, he was not happy when the tables were turned.

2 Months

Bathing suit Baby Lila turned 2 months old on the 14th.

9 pounds 14 ozs

23 inches

She is our itty-bitty baby. It is so funny to me how small she is. She is the size Jackson was at 2 months and he was born quite a bit earlier than here and a pound and a half smaller. She did great at her check-up. She had 5 shots and 1 oral vaccine. The doctor doubled her dose of prevacid and put her on hypo-allergenic formula. Hopefully we'll get her reflux under control soon. She is already doing better and is a much happier baby.

Bumbo

Mok got Lila a bumbo seat when she was here for the wedding. Lila is getting stronger every day and is really starting to enjoy it.

7 weeks

8 weeks

9 weeks

Then and Now

Lila fought bath time for about a week, but I knew I'd win her over eventually.

She now loves bath time. It's one of her favorite things to do, which is good b/c I'm a fanatic about having a clean baby.

We still bathe her on the countertop most of the time, but she also loves to take a bath with me. She also got in with Jackson tonight. He loved it, and so did she.

Congratulations Josh and Jess

Coming out of the Salt Lake Temple

We love Jess and are so happy that she is finally Aunt Jess.

Sunny Bunny

We have no pictures of Jax in his tux. Thanks Uncle B.J. for teaching him to cover his face!

Uncle B.J. And His Little Alien

Uncle B.J. has been calling Lila, "Little Alien". I'm sure he means it in the nicest sense of the word. These are probably the only pictures we'll have of Lila and B.J. b/c he lives so far away, and isn't much of a baby holder. I thought they were pretty sweet.


Yes, she does look quite like a little alien!

Lila's Baby Blessing

This has been such a big week for us. The day after the wedding we had Lila's blessing. It was so great to be able to have all our family there for Lila.
Ryan's mother made Lila's dress out of my wedding dress. She made Sunny a temple dress when we were sealed out of it, and we had just enough left for Lila. It was gorgeous.
